Hey all, well, to start off, I am pretty new to paintball, and brand new to the forum. I began paintballin this summer, and have gone three times. It is sooo much fun, lol, as you all know. I recently ordered a 98 custom, with some upg's.. check the sig..

I was just wondering if any of you more experienced players have any advice to give me. Anything really (strats, equipment, maybe wtf a halo is...? lol)

Anything would be appreciated! I really like the forum, seems like an awesome atmosphere, and I hope to become pretty active in it. Thanks.

Hey man, glad to see you're on the forums...

The Best Advice there is in thw world I can give to new players is to play, play and play. The more you play and practice, simply the better you will become. There are really no drills or anything, but if you play maybe once a month, maybe more, get used to your gun and learn the game, you will progress nicley. I strongly reccomend you play alot before you think about spending more money on gear and equipment.

A Halo is the best hopper on the market, usually used with High-End markers.

I made a FAQ awhile back, check it out, it will help you a bit. All new player info can be found here.

Any questions hit me up on AIM=jdh2511

great choice in markers to start out with, im a newb as well(atleast i think so). All i can say is to move around alot, and practice snap shooting; a great move...

if someone challenges you to a paintball eating contest don't accept. they can usually eat more paint than you if they challenge you.

2 biggest things:
dont be a moron, play safe
and dont be afraid of being hit....if you can play balls out then your allready better than 30% of the people who play paintball
