Paintball : Style or Substance?

[peewee]

substance , nothing like watching Captain Bling, Bling & the toadies trying to act all bad-azz seems like a good share of the time they cant fix thier own markers. last time I was at speedball there was a "team" that looked like they were all that & a box O cookies that couldnt play worth sour owl poo & two of the guys didnt even know how to adjust thier matching karnies. I'LL take substance any day.

The people who worry about looking good are usually the best players, seeing as playing like noobs doesn't look too good, now does it?

"It is better to look good than to feel good.....and Yooo Looook Mahvelous!"

(To bad you suck at Paintball )

lol, thats great. for me, substance comes first, but once i get that down for particular moves, then i add some style. nothing cooler than diving over a snake and shooting the guy while in midair while being shot at from across the field and by the guy youre bunkering.

Fairly self explanatory, really. What's paintball more about? Style or substance? I'm getting a feel for things. I'm more curious than anything else. I'm seeing if an idea I have is valid or not.

Ok Tyger, but you didn't answer my question. I have no idea.

I don't think I have either style or substance, I just have fun....

Amen, as to Tyger's recent comment at the moment paintball is all about style. Personally I fit in to this category to some degree, mainly because I don't want a gun that looks like one everyone else on the planet has. I want mine to be unique so that expresses a part of me in it. However, if it came down to it, I would take substance over style in any of my markers. My Phantom is my primary and it isn't exactly pretty, but it works when I need it to.

I don't think that it is one or the other. I think they go hand in hand. For example, I decided that I wanted a Phantom because I liked the way it performed, but it also looked good with a sexy acid wash, so I had to order it acid washed as well.

style (which i hate)

cause 95.9987454359434657348543586% (took me a while to calculate) of the people want to look good...so they by "Dye" "Empire/Empir3" "JT"...

...just look at how many people bought the dm4 / nerf...

Has to be Style for sure.

If paintball was all substance, AGD would be doing very well financially and it would be the Gardner's selling off Smart Parts.
