Things in paintball that you don't like but seem popular

- hemoroids.

oh.... sorry.... got off topic there.

Ya think?

I agree with SHartley's list until he got off topic.... =)


To add a few things to the growing list though:

~I'm not a fan of people who won't talk when they're playing. If you see someove moving on the right side, yell about it.
~Those new to the sport that think it's a really good idea to crowd in the bunker with the guy with the 'automatic gun'.

Now SHartley, what cha got against us that put catchup on a good steak, huh?

Real annoyances:

People who drop of their 10 and 12 year old kids for the day at the local field. Wouldn't it be so much better if dad played to? I'm a ref not a babysitter.

People that can only worry about getting on TV. I play therefore the world should watch me?

Players that are to good to work with the rest of their team.

People that slam mags and have no knowledge to base their comments on.

People that throw fits on or off the field. It's a game.

People that don't know that when you're walking off the field with gun raised and green barrel plug in you are out.

Other ref's who have no enthusiasm for working with new players and helping them out. Open play is for everyone.

Things I dislike:

1: People bashing BE (and its related companies) just because it's the thing to do

2: People saying (when referring to my Rainmaker), "Wow, that's a neat 'Cocker. Where's the 3 way?"

3: People bashing anyone else's playing style

4: People accusing me of trying to buy skill when all I'm looking for is reliability and speed in a marker

There's probably more, but I can't think of any now.

autocockers. i dont like them because i think they are expensive troublesome markers that dont give you any features besides looks and being able to be customized. ill admit they shoot smooth(when they are working) but for the money why wouldnt you get a mag w/ level 10 or a nice emag or an angel.

* misinformed people ^^^^^^

You obviously have had little or no experience with autocockers.
*Expensive-just like mags you have the $300 dollar versions on up to the $1600 dollar versions, alot of the higher end cockers price does come from cosmetics but it's the same way with the extreme emag alot of that cost is cosmetic
*Cockers breaking all the time is a myth that I lot of people hear, scared me away from cockers to begin with, but I ending up buying a nice one, and I never had a problem with it, people who say they break all the time are the people who are always messing with their guns but don't know how to work on them, leave them alone and they'll work fine, same thing applies to any gun.
*They give you the same features any other gun has, they throw paint, generally don't chop or break paint.
I'm not trying to bash mags or say that cockers are better, me personally I'd take a nice cocker over a mag/emag any day, I'm just not a mag person can't shoot reguler mags, and I don't personally care for the way mags shoot. But I do think they are good guns, just not for me. I not trying to critizize you, just telling you from experience that cockers aren't like alot of people say, it comes down to personal preference.

Why you be on the road if you weren't going somewhere?


Oh yeah. I see now.

Also, I missed putting a smiley in the first post.

Not bashing, but only the CnC Xtremes with 2 color fades and polsihing have "cosmetic" properties. Your not paying that much for looks (on the stock Xtremes), ur paying that much for performance and reliability. (ACE, Lvl. 10, Emag Valve, lighter body, blah blah blah)

P.S. I dont no what kind of u steak u ppl that put anything (A1, ketchup, wheat germ) on it, but a good steak (rare mmmmmm.....) needs nothing....

[HoppysMag]

When people post their first three "dislikes" specifically targeted at another AO users post, even though they would never have listed those otherwise (*cough* shartley).

LAME!
