It's shooting people with no harm. Although I love it, some people refer to it "The most retarded sport ever invented."

Also, the last time I was there, this dialogue happened to me.
"Van why did you choose this as your birthday place!! this is gay and why does some guy named Suitcase keep shooting me wtf you're Suitcase fuck you Van."

Anyway, talk about any experiences you had with Lasertag and what you think of it.

I'm not certain what's with your little rant at the beginning, but Laser Quest was always great until it shut down when I was about 15 or so.

I was kind of awesome at it since I would clear everyone out of a building and then shoot other people's shoulders and gun barrels across the field.

Oh, and that's also where I got my handle from, since Viper was taken I decided to go with Ace. The rest is history or whatever.

It's pretty great until you're old enough to own a gun.

Suddenly, your entire world is a game of tag and your opponent is the local homeless population.

Then it's like a safari.

childhood memory
something that is rarely seen now many prefer gotcha or airsoft though airsoft is a little exaggerated

I used to play paintball a lot, but it gets pretty expensive.

i used to play laser tag all the time when i was a kid. so much fun. however, there was one time after i moved to Arkansas where i wasn't familiar with the map of the place. i ended up running full-speed into a wall because i thought it was a tunnel. it was just a wall painted black in a room with no light save for our laser tag gear.

that place got closed down after a few more kids ran into that wall.

I only ever went when I was in cub scouts or for a friend's birthday, I haven't been to one in almost 10 years. From what I can remember, I really enjoyed it. The only times it ever seemed lame was when we had to play with the occasional douchebag(s) (excessive swearing, once when I was 10 some girl grabbed my gun, etc).

I've been wanting to try paintball, but I'm such a wuss when it comes to pain.

I still like Laser Tag, I haven't played it in a while, though. I remember walking about the field and seeing little kids shooting at their own team mates too. And I remember I kept shooting at a kid who told me to stop, I never did and he started crying. I am so good with kids.

I've only played it 3 times, all in the same day.

1st time: ´´I got third? Sweet.`` (I think there was 12 all in all.)
2nd time: ´´4th? 'S cool.``
3rd time: ´´Last? How did that happen?``

I'm not too good at aiming, so I was surprised at my early succeses.
I really want to try out paintball though.

I think I've only played laser tag a couple of times in my life.

Like ChewySmokey, I'd probably be a wimp when it comes to paintball. My skin is delicate.

What's really fun: Laser tag for 10 hours straight, 10PM to 8AM. I've done it twice at Darkzone with scouts

wow 10 hours!!

I played laser tag once but you could be shot out and then they would follow you around because you could get shot out again before you were allowed to shoot.

I also played paintball once as an outing for the first place I worked at, it was alright, although I ended up getting the gun they had lying around for whoever didn't have one themselves and everyone else except one guy had much better guns.
Honestly I think I would've have won the game of mercy if I hadn't run out of paint balls, not from actually hitting the other players, but because I have a high pain tolerance.

Retarded? No.

Rigged Bullshit? Commonly.

I played laser tag twice as a little kid (last time was 6 years ago maybe?), and it was pretty fun the second time. The first time I was like 6 and got absolutely decimated by some older kids. But the second time was a few years later, and I didn't do bad. If my memory serves, I got 4th out of 16 in the match. Then they got rid of the arena like 5 yeas ago. Now it's glow-in-the-dark mini-golf, which is loads less fun.

Other than that I've played airsoft a few times, mainly because it's huge among the kids at my school. I did okay, but I'd never buy one of those guns or get really into it. There are kids around here who save up hundreds of dollars for those things, and that's just ridiculous. If they had more money/jobs, I'm sure they'd be hardcore paintballers, but that's even more expensive, and they have trouble getting their parents to pay for airsoft as it is.

The last time I went laser tagging, it was after high school prom..I wanna say about five or six years ago. Damn.

It probably would have been a lot more fun if I wasn't in my prom dress. In hindsight, I probably should have changed. Anyway, the place we had here was pretty big, but it was annoying and dark. I know that's the point of it, and with a bunch of glow-in-the-dark things, but it was still pretty difficult to navigate through. It was also similar to playing CoD with people constantly camping, which made it frustrating. Games didn't last too long. My team (classmates, naturally) went against a bunch of older adults (definitely not in high school) that we didn't know. I saw people running into things and tripping over trash cans.

Overall it was fun then, but I don't know if I'd do it again.

I use to go to laser tag for birthdays, had a couple of my birthdays there too. They were fun, but it's only up until you get to 14. By that point it just gets lame, I remember camping at one tower because I got tiered of running and just didn't care for anything. Paintball is way more fun, but I only went a couple of times and then never found the time again. It would get expensive though, something you would do rarely.

What's fun in ones with blacklight: warpaint with highlighter. It glows really well.

theres already a thread for this

*twitch*

I played one match, but the guns were utter shit.

I want to try it one time... But with sportshooting, dancing, paintball, airsoft and working... Well... There is not much time left...

It's just one day.

Oh damn, I just remembered the last time I went! It was for a Physics class in High School He was a really cool teacher
