i've had enough

[cody_wild]

i've been noticing alot lately that everyone has been trying to boycott smart parts and have been making smartparts symbols that change into swastikas (nazi symbol for the daft) and i've frankly had enough, the only thing u people are doing is taking up space in the forum, no body cares what you have to say and all your doing is making yourself look stupid, if u wanna make a difference actually DO something, dont just hide behind ur keyboard and point fingers, unless ur trying to be a coward, well thats all i have to say. :) leave ur thoughts

yea, nice job buddy, listen up, we are expresing our selves. ANd by wxpressing our selves, we can effect others, which is apparently what we did.

I boycott smartparts, first off for their shoddy products, and 2nd off for the law suit. i think they are a bad influence to the market.

Ever since the boycott, i havnt bought any thing SP, hell before the boycot, the onely thing i ever bought sp was a freak it, and it was poor quailty and missaligned.

so cody, suck it up, people are still going to do it, still going to reffer to SP as nazis etc. really, i think they are like an evil empire......

i dont believe he ever said he was.
but it has gotten to a point of annoyance to me too. i'm not into the whole boycot thing, some people are so be it. but if they make a good product thats worth it, i'll buy it and use it.

Ya, nobody cares what we have to say...except nearly everybody on the forum. They never made good products, in my oppinnion, the impulse may be nice for the money, but I had nothing but problems, from the anno rubbing off to the trigger crapping out on me. Ya were cowards...lol, what do you want us to do? Write emails and call the company is about all you can do. Spreading the word, and showing how you feel can only help.

As a company, wouldnt you be affected if half of your business turned your back, by means of swastika logos? It makes as big a difference as any.

i agree but unfortunatally a lot of people feel different and like them. hence all the freaks i see around, for sale and being bought. personally after the other systems i wouldn't buy the freak. the onyl SP product i own is 2 of their barrels

Ya, I have a freak, and am trying to trade it for a pipe (angel threaded, if you want to know, PM me) but have only had one offer, of a grey pipe system, but I still havent heard back from him

For the record, I've been playing since 94 and have NEVER bought anything from Smart Parts.

All of you who say you are sick of hearing people "whine" about Smart Parts and their lawsuit, find a new sport. Patent holders and companies have been foregoing profits for years to grow this sport for the sake of the players and the game. If having Smart Parts come in and try to capitalize on companies and people who have been paying their dues and struggling financially strikes you as inconsequential, I don't want to be on a playing field with you, and neither does any other player with a true love for the game.

Amen! A direct quote from smart parts was, "I dont see why people care so much, if you had an idea and other people were making money off of it, you would be upset too, but we arent doing this for the money."

"I dont see why people care so much" -- mabe because they dont want to lose there favorite gun manufactures so much!!

"if you had an idea and other people were making money from it, you would be upset too" -- of course, but this is entirely different. AGD has sacrificed several things they could have pattented, and made more money, but they are more worried about the sport.

"we arent doing this for the money" -- What a load of crap! Why else would they do it!?!!?!!?

I asked Smrt Parts in an E-mail, if not for the money, than what are you doing it for? So far no response.

Ahahahah...typical, when cris called them and asked about the lawsuit, they said "no official word" and hung up on him.

[SomebodySomeoneRTPcf]

I think people should come up with their own ideas and pat. them. Cause I would like to steal ideas and make millions. If they made what they r pat. then fine dont *****. Its their choice to share it or not. If they didn't make what they r pat. then screw sp and the court that said they could pat. the idea. I don't know the whole story so...

[Paintchucker]

Confused...

I am confused about the SP being like Nazis... I am sure the Nazis would take offense. They may have been cruel killers, but they were never money grubbing monopolistic fools...
