PB2X and AGD's perception

[Micromag Sith]

I see what you mean. Even though I had to think about it for a moment. I am not nearly as impressed wth angels as I used to be. Its not because they are bad guns, its because everybody seems to have one. Now I dont think there is anything they could come out with that wold truly impress me. Anything they do just seems like hype to me. I am probably compleetly wrong to think this way, but at this point it would be verry hard to change my mind. I honnetly hope that AGD never gets to this point. (sorry tom)

Well you know what they say..."There's no such thing as bad publicity"...well maybe there is but I don't think this is a big deal at all

there is in these days when al these people are rooting for political correctness and womens rights and everything. not that i disagree with them.

I think that my point was mudled in the translation. I am not saying that 11 years old shouldn't have nice markers. I think that they should all have E-Mags, though. What I am saying is that they have them because they think they are the best. People always have something to say even if they don't understand what the meaning of the thread was. I was pointing out that Angels and other guns get more publicity than AGD guns. The point of the thread was AGD's perception in the mings of the masses. Everyone sees Angels and Autocockers in a tourney setting in these magazines. The 'Mags are usually in the woods. I was analyzing one issue of a popular Paintball magazine. Read the whole post before you react to what I wrote.

Yup AGD defintely needs better marketing. In all the magizines that I read I have never saw one e-mag ad in them. There aren't any automag/minimag/micromag ads either. The last automag ad that I saw was like 2 years ago and thats it. All I see now are mutiple ads of spyders, tippmanns, Cockers, angels, intimidators, ect...

I agree. I don't think that you can get mad at all the other companies for advertising and working hard to get people to buy their products.From the couple years that I've been playing it seems that AGD has used the "quality" factor to sell their products. I know that I didn't buy my mag based on a cool add but because of the quality.

I think that once the extreme comes out and the lvl 10 demands go down then AGD will have more time to concentrate on advertising and you will start to see more mags at fields cause we all know that in America succesfull advertising is what sells.

Just for an example look at how many hondas you see on the road today versus how many volkswages. It's because Honda puts a lot more effort into advertising than VW did. It's not that a honda is any better it's the fact that they advertised a lot more even though VW is now advertising much more than they did a few years ago and now you're starting to see more of them which is hopefully what will happen with AGD products.

Sorry for the long post but just had to put in my $.02
