What if We Call it a MACE??????

[AGD]

AO,

Since people are calling the LVL10 mod a "mechanical ACE" I thought we might coin the work "MACE" to refer to mechanical systems that don't chop. We would still call it LVL10 for the product name.

What do you think? I am worried that MACE sounds like somthing you smash stuff with.

When I read that...I thought AGD made another thing for the cops....hehe

I actually think its pretty good of a nick name

[slushee]

personnally, when i read that, the first thing i thought of was of something causing bodily harm .. the last thing paintball needs right now!

one humble vote for a bad idea (sorry Tom!)

[Moats]

slushee, Im sorry ahead of time if this is offensive towards you, it shouldn't be taken that way.

If sick and tired of people who are always concerned about Jack the newbee. Or a picture of a guy holding a gun with out a barrel plug or mask. Im sorry if you feel that when you recieve an award you should gear up to go get a pic. When you are in your back yard shooting do you wear a mask? When you are working on your gun do you wear a mask? I don't and i am not ashamed of it.

When dye came out with a mask called the "badass" it wasn't the end of the world. Do you know why? When Mom sue, and Little Joey are waltzing through K-mart to get into the sport, they don't see bad-***, they see JT and raptors.

Though walmart and Kmart to a great deal to market new players, the plsyers that we once were...Now I don't go to walmart for paint. We are into the sport enough where a badass here, and a Hell fire there don't offend us.

If you are already shooting a mag the name MACE won't make you run for the hills and sell the mag screaming "What animals must run the company!"

People are always sreaming about bad publicity towards paintball. I don't even realize where any of this publicity comes from. You don't open the New York times and read "Team XXX didn't have their barrel plugs in at awards Ceremony" "President Bush calls for immediate banning of paintball!"

Given paintball has had some bad reputations now and then, i don't believe they were from the Marketing of Products, but the irresponsibility of few.
A kid who searches the net to find out aboutpaintball, and reads MACE, won't be like " I don't know it seems scary"

To make a long story longer....Tom go with it! I wont run and hide. This is not a flame but a opinion.

[slushee]

you bring up some good points .. i'm still not a fan of the name, but that's why Tom asks us

[SlipknotX556]

I dont think "Mace" is a good name for it. How about "The Feather"

[MajorDamage]

I think its groovey!

ENDO!

[WicKeD_WaYz]

i totally agree. i say its a keeper tom

[Oregon_pb_]

Don't like the name MACE.



Need something else

[Minimag4me]

just call it Mechanical ACE and then you avoid all problems. If people want to call it mace for simplicity or a shortened form then great. I think you should keep standard so everyones know what they are talking about. The company shouldnt start the slang, leave it to the people.

[SlipknotX556]

Like I said before. It should be called "The Feather"

[Xzion]

For those worried about the definition of 'Mace' why not use 'M.A.C.E.' showing it as an acronym, and removing what confusion there may, or may not be?

Just my two cents

[DiRTyBuNNy]

I can go with M.A.C.E. (see..even i like it...so there..)* Thinks to himself...hhhmmm...Blue/Black Fade eMag Extreme with M.A.C.E. and a side of pie...oooohhhh....PPPPIIIIEEEEE!!!!!!*

[Blennidae]

I thought the E in ACE stood for Eye. Since level 10 doesn't use an eye, why not just MAC?

If the E doesn't stand for eye, disregard this...

[TransMan]

I like it just so long as you let everyone know what it stands for maybe on the packages you could put Mechanical ACE in small letters under MACE.
