Saw that discussed long ago when it ORIGINALLY came out on a few other forums. It was an obvious facetious(look it up) and "tongue-in-cheek" article. Never meant as a serious article/issue. If anyone thought it was they were duped... gullible fools. :p

Anyone with a quarter brain knows this right away and knows stealing pods is just that... stealing. No truly respectful paintball player steals another players pods on purpose. There's really no reason to post crap like this unless it is specifically for a team ethics lesson.

Please don't try to use this as justification for pod asshattery.

Case closed. ;)

I think the artical was just a long sarcastic way to say
"If you don't want your pods stolen, keep them in your gear bag or locked vehicle"
Perhaps putting names/stickers helps

I have no problem "podhunting" out at a scenario event at the end of the day. If people value thier pods/money they would have picked them up - if 3-4 hours go by and they're still there, I'll grab 'em - and return the ones that have stickers/names. I usually get a hug and a thank you for that. :D

if anyone stole a full pod out of my pack on a table I would be PISSED!

I just assume that if i leave a pod somewhere that it will be gone by the time i remember that i left it there. I just remember to stick empty ods back in my pack. Sure, it takes a little more time to do that than to just throw it to the side, but its no tlike i'll lose money or get a bad rap if i get shot while re-loading.

lol, so many of my pods get jacked.

if i ever catch someone whom is not fatal jacking my pods, all hell will break loose. pod stealing is kinda like lighter stealing. i am still paying for the karma on that episode of life.

another reason I keep two sets of pods, expensive and cheepo guppies. the cheapos I put in the elastic straps on the harness ('cept during practice or the blender or tournament play) that way I don't worry about loosing them.

sometimes I'll stomp a pod if I feel like it, light me up and I'll podstomp

oh and BTW I have mroe than 10 140s and haven't paid for a single one!
