      since there was more than a TALK about a lawsuit by SP. I know many others besides myself who will NOT buy SP products ever again or even begin to use them in the first place.

          SP is taking alot of dirt, they are trying to clean the slate with a popular team. SP is never gonna be able to clean that stench off them...

            SP outright bought em. Period.

            No matter what product you buy, in the end, you will be sending a little of your money thier way if this kind of thing continues. They can sit back and make money off everyone elses efforts at some point. At some point they do not even have to MAKE anything. Royalties will keep em fed.

                Exactly. So they are the best cheaters? Big deal.

                Those new Shockers are nice thou. I got to check one out at the local "Pro" shop. Very light and sweet.

                  Undoubtedly the most popular team in Paintball, Dynasty will do great things for Smart Parts' image.
                  Hrrm I think a heaping bag of flaming dog crap left at SP's door would improve their image also....

                  Oh well good riddance to bad rubbish. I hope they are happy with their new business arangement and go to hell together.

                    not if I don't buy an electro they won't!

                    If they even try and TOUCH PPS, they'll lose. Glen has already come out and said as much. They won't touch him. And they won't even be able to even LOOK at the pump market. So, my money will NEVER go towards SP.

                    Time for the mechanical reRevolution!

                      Actually Dynasty doesn't have to cheat, they have the PRO refs fixing the calls in their favor each time. Gotta love Chuck!

                        Smart Parts is going to have a hell of a time going after companies like Brass Eagle and WDP, I don't really think SP's patent will hold up against Brass Eagle.

                          Can we formalize this in some way?

                            Pro team + sponsor dollars = product sales. Its a given, an absoulute, an over and done with. Its inspiring to know that thousands of teenagers can be controlled so easily. That a sea of humanity who would argue that they are independent thinkers and make their own decisions will "decide" to use whatever they see a pro use. Even more interesting is that its a done deal BEFORE they even see the product in use.

                            I think Warped has his thumb on the pulse of the market. In order to see it so clearly you must be in the middle of that pack somewhere.

                              Zing!

                              SP has some cut-throat business practices, and some might argue that blatant self-interest is evil. Scoring a successful team as spokespersons is a PR coup, but should make no difference to a thinking persons opinion of the company.

                              Sadly, "thinking persons" are a distinct minority.
