Ultimate Status Symbol ?

[p8ntball72]

Back in the day if you were one of the only guys on the field with a simi you were the bomb.

Now everyone has a ramping electro with custom anno jobs..

So my question is IF you had unlimited funds.
What would be the "Ultimate Status Symbol" marker setup.
dont list the flavor of the week timmy or angel.
I'm talking about one of a kind setups custom to you.
something Like Z-man has...


*on a side note* AGD should call their new marker "The Status"

umm where have you been? the ultimate status symbol is carrying around a starbucks (starschmucks) coffee cup. like duuuuh everyone knows that!

umm i dunno, i think that ramping is kinda gay but everyone does it, join the band wagon, thats what my friend is doing. but i perosnally dont like ramping. i just got my lowers today and its really damn fast, and i play mid/back so its fast enough. why max out your reloader b? all your doing is wasting paint. the emag lowers are fast enough to me. i cant wait to go to the field to show it off, carbon fiber panels and batt pack w00t everyone will be like omg . acutally not really, once they realize its a mag they will be like your a ***, i got turned down by a team even tho i owned them all, just because i have a mag. they are bastards but i mean if I of all ppl can serve your entire team then you sux0rs. i have tryouts for the PMI factory team out of orbital on sunday....wish me luck!

anyway, sorry for hijacking! im out, gota run to starschmucks!

I'd be rocking a custom milled / anoed Cyborg with a one of a kind board and one-off programming including a color LCD display with every option known to man, maybe with some PalmOS and bluetooth wireless networking... never know, you might wanna check ur email in the middle of a game!

my friend has a bet with me, hes a sophmore, im a senior he says that if i can get this girl (the hottest freshman at my school) to go to homecomming with me than he'll give me his borg it will b easy unless someone alrady asked her, which is possible

Make your own status symbol. Dont be a tool.

And hmm... i could go for that tetris borg....

blue/black warp with gold glitter x-mag with an electro z-grip ( I know they dont exist, this is my dream), with matching dye titanium and FBM stilleto drop, Max-flo adjustable tank (68/4500), Blue Halo-B, Blue warp

I dunno, I'd probably got with like a Voodoo Impulse or something relatively conservative. Reflects my playing style....cool, calm, and reserved. But when the chips are on the table and cards about to go down BAM, kick it into overdrive and knock you out before you realized you bet the farm, the family car, and your childs college fund on a game that I just took control of.

status for me is kicking the hell out of electros with a mech gun

oh, and the gucci barrel covers

The most impressive and status-conferring thing I have ever seen on a field is SKILL.


That said, the most impressive markers that comes to mind have always been pumps:

...At CC XVI last fall, Punisher's Customs had a custom-annoed pneumatic-assist Phantom that in the right hands could hit 13bps. Very impressive, especially in the hands of someone with the skills to really make the most of it.

...Or the 1-of-25 gold-plated laser-engraved Illusions that Action Markers gave away in 2002-03. Beautiful, valuable and cool, but too pretty to use.

...The "Franklin-stein Gun" was a PMI stock pistol built one Friday night in LI by CanCon co-founder Hugh Franklin from $10 worth of discarded parts. Not quite a PGP, not quite a PMI-1, it rocked. Accurate and reliable, and fearsome in the hands of a woodsball master like Hugh.

ultimate for me would be a protoype hAir.

I think the ultimate status symbol now a day would be...

A black HK longsleeve jersey covered in gucci fabric. Wait, that gives me an idea :) .
