What is Rec.Sport.Paintball?
Rec.sport.paintball was originally created in 1992 by UseNet enthusiasts who were unable to participate in alt.sport.paintball because of its ALT.* status. It is a newsgroup devoted to all things Paintball. Anything even remotely having to do with the sport is considered a valid topic of discussion. Threads about events, equipment, tactics, tournaments and personalities are all welcome. Postings for the sale of paintball gear and advertisements for related commercial ventures are also acceptable if some general guidelines are followed (See Section 3). PLEASE NOTE: rec.sport.paintball is *not* a moderated newsgroup. It never has been, and hopefully never will be. No one can control what is posted and there are no rules. There will always be the jerk who submits “PAINTBALL SUX!” or some other message designed to provoke an emotional response. *DO NOT RESPOND*. You are only providing the reaction he is looking for and making the guy stay longer. Just ignore him.
