i have decided..

I'm sorry, I just gotta reply to this one. First off, just because he doesn't have an occupation listed doesn't mean that he doesn't have an income. Heck I have student listed under mine and I have a rather steady income, enough to play every weekend and still pay for school. Secondly you don't have to have a friggen $20 an hour job to pay for a viking.

But it is quite possible that he doesn't, since there's nothing saying he did.

Good for you

If that was the case then that means his paycheck wouldn't be enviable, which was the whole point in the first place.

No, I said that given you age it was more likely that your parent's paycheck was the one that f3rr3+ wishes he had (if anyones)

My parents pay for all my paintball stuff. Well... actualy I saved up christmas money for my spyder shutter... sold it for 200.00 (package) and then my parents put in $75.00 to buy a used mag.

I believe I was reading on DarkViking.com that if you re-anno or mill your viking that voids the warrenty. Give me a sec to find a link to it. But that's what I was planning on doing as well but not sure if what I read was true or not.

actually i think i saw that somewhere too..damn ohwell, ill just get the half milled one

[RetroEclipseMan]

Yeah, here's the link to that thread about not being able to mill them. http://www.darkviking.com/modules.ph...e011a6e6b8cf91

BTW I love my viking, just got it today from the owner of darkviking himself, has the eyes installed etc and it totally rips.

Boy I am sick of the "Parents bought the gun" crap. Let me tell you, I'm thirty and I make plenty of money, but if my parents decided to buy me a gun or some stuff you better believe I'd take it. Thats what parents do, they buy kids stuff. Is my daughter supposed to refuse her Barbie castle just becasue she didn't pay for it? All this crap is just jealousy rearing its ugly head...

Now, about that Viking. COngratulations, excellent choice. Be VERY careful, however, about milling it. It voids your AKA warranty, and the anno they use (type 3) is VERY difficuly to remove. You'd be better off playing a little more for a milled (ie JMJ, immortal, whatever) and annoed one. Now get ready to buy those eyes, the wicked switch, and your Halo B. Rock on!

Except nothing you just complained about happened here in any sense of the word.

Welcome to literacy, we hope you enjoy your stay.

At 17 years old, more likely his parent's paycheck...

Um, at 17 I shelled out $12,000 of my own money to by my own car. Its called having a job as well as going to school. Through high school I worked around 25-30 hours a week, and college was anywhere from 35-80 hours a week on top of a full schedule.

You don't have to mention anybody's name, since literally no person in this thread whined about the "Parents bought the gun crap" and you came in explaining that you were tired of people whining about it.

Nobody here did it, your comment was completely random and had nothing to do with anything that anyone here said

It's like if I said I don't like cheese and then you came down on me for making fun of the French.

Good for you.

There are exceptions to every rule, but you certainly must admit that there were more kids that worked less then you then there were kids that worked more then you.

Guys, I was simply saying that at 17 it is MORE likely that a person's individual paychecks are not impressive that an adult professional would envy them. Period, end of story. I know some people would like to think I was attacking a younger guy, or inferring that we was spoiled, or some such nonsense but I assure you that was in know way my intent, nor is it what I said.
