Advertising on YOUR marker

[FutureMagOwner]

i dont think i have any clothes (or products) that wouldnt look the same/as good without the logo. then again i dont have a jersey and i am a bit hesitant to buy one because i dont want all these logos on them i mean my 03 dye pants with the dye logo on the side is one thing but a whole jersey with the entire design on the back is something i dont like on any of my clothes. its still funny when people ask if my gun is an angel or something when it says on the valve "E-Mag"

thats part of deal, you pay them, to advertise for them

Ever hear of a t shirt?

I shop at wal-mart, not because I can't afford other things, but mainly because I wouldn't be advertising for large companies that I wish not to support. If I'm not wearing a blank shirt, it's the shirt of some sort of band in which I wish to advertise for.

I like all the logos. I want people to know who I buy my gear from. Crap man you must want to cry when you see some of the guns loaded with stickers from their sponsors

Sadly I just make sure I buy everything from one company (DYE) ... man .. I should be their poster child!!!

[Quickling]

with sponsors you can always choose not to take the sponsorship... or place the logo on your shirt and not your marker.. but there is a series lack of "tuned" markers that arnet huge billboards. And you think all that milling comes free. I bet your paying 200 bucks for an evolution cocker just to have the body cut down and "evolution" to be engraved on it.

Eh, I like the way some companies do logos, so I don't mind using their stuff (DYE for example, always sexy). And my Viking has no real advertising on it, but even if it did I doubt I would care.

[FalconGuy016]

Wow. I never knew there were such opinions on something like this.

I personally, do not care, at all. Unless its ugly, does it really matter? I dont think so (you might, im not saying anything but my own opinion here)

[magman007]

listen, i buy products that i know are good. I buy dye barrels, because dye is tried and true. I like dye products, and i want others to know this. I wear dye gear. I want others to know what dye is, and that i am promoting paintball thrtough their gear.


I want people to know what is on my gun. I spent the money for it, i want thay dye logo on there. I spent the money on my angel, i like having the little Angel jewel on the side of my speed.


Complaining about the logo's is useless. Companies will always include their logo, it is their right. It is a part of their product and if you dont like it then maybe you shouldnt buy their product.


The empire timmy is just that. EMPIRE! IT IS CALED AN EMPIRE TIMMY BECAUSE IT IS MADE FOR EMPIRE!!! wow shocking revelation here! did you think that maybe thats why it has the EMPIRE logo milled into it? if you want something of the same performance, then hell wait till the 2k4 is released.

Companies put their logo on their products, so people can see them, yes it is free advertising for them, but come on, who doesnt brag and say ive got a boomer on my gun, or my scepter kit owns your freak. What about my dye pants are better than those bdu's?

I mean come on people, our sport is in the public eye, there fore, logos are gunna be included. support the companies you like, boycott the others... it isnt that hard people!

if u dont like the logo on it, DONT BUY IT! how else would people know who makes the part?

Oh.... so as to make myself clear... MY comments deal with general product branding, not just jewels on markers.

[magman007]

Sam you make good points, but another i need to make is that, the public as a generall in paintball, likes the branding, and if the larger populus likes something, and the smaller populus doesent, then the smaller populus baisically gets the shaft.

Why else would companies print out numerous sticker sheets generates specifically for poples gear?

How many people have you seen with tons of Evil stickers on the side? or on their hoppers? They do it for the branding. Now il admit, im looking for an angel sticker to slap on the side of my speed, but my reasoning is i want to cover a scratchm but thats another point.
