Posers

[SuiciDal Sn Y p ER]

Ok, do you mean real small kids like 10-12? Or just 13-15?

Because I mean, I understand where you guys are coming from when you talk about the kids using high end markers and so on and so forth. I mean, lots of people just buy the things and don't even use them. It's practically a waste of money, but that's the idea. The dealers wouldn't care, so paintball is nothing more than a hobby if we continue in the trend that we're going. So this is how it is. That's that.

It's not that, i wouldn't care if a 10 year old showed up with all the high end gear in the world. It's the attitude of the players that we are discussing.

[TeamNausea]

To many of these "horror" stories about kids with nice stuff is just angry because they have nice stuff. Now what snyper is describing is a complete ***...I'm 14 have a DM3 halo etc. I also have a jersey that our team got and pants to match. I'm not very good as Load Sm5 will vouch for but that dosent make me a poser or anything like that... My 'rents were nice(prolly stupid) enough to dish out the money for it and for alot of these kids that's all there is to it. Dosent mean they are a poser because mom and dad feel like letting little timmy have a $3000 spending limit.

Oh I get what you mean.


And I understand what you mean too. Like this whole "West Coast" california speedballer attitude people have now? Yeah, I know what you mean. And it drives me insane too.

I don't understand why is it that people have such attitudes towards other people on the field. You come there, you play, no need to act like a freaking twerp about it. I mean, it's not that I can't stand a person decked out in gear. As long as you don't brag, and don't insult my gear. Then I'm cool with you.

P.S. Get where I'm coming from?

Now you're getting it. Nothing wrong with having all the stuff in the world, it's the attitude that i'm worried about

[Echo-Newb]

At first I didn't understand what the topic was about. So sorry about that. It's just my inability to take time and read that got to me.

But yeah, I understand what your worried about. And at my local field that's a large problem. Even at my school we have those kinds of problems with the kids who play paintball. They're all too up on the "Speedballer west coast california" attitude. They even insult me when I say I wanna buy a Mag. I mean, here's an average conversation that I have with one kid named Matt.

Me- Hey Matt.
Matt- Yo.
Me- So I hear you played last Saturday. How was it?
Matt- I was using this new Autococker and I was lighting these guys up man. They can't compete.
Me- OK... Anyway, I'm getting the Mag soon.
Matt- Psh! Mag's have nothing on Autocockers.
Me- Your off man. Mag's are really good.
Matt- You can't even use those for tournaments. What good are they then?
Me- Who said that a good marker has to be for tournaments?
Matt- Any marker worth being made should be tournament grade. Get out of here. Freaking woods player.

Ok, so from there on I'll cut it off because I began to get worked up and . So I think you guys get the idea. That's how these speedballers act. Very stuck up and very up tight and think that they are the top.

Not only that half of them are posers to speedballing because at least most of them like this kid matt thinks that autocockers are the shat. Get me?

Oh yeah, and also. I play woods, but speedball too. Just because I like to play woods this kid thinks that I'm a recreational player. I mean, that's another thing too. Kids like this think that woods is really lame. It's not lame, it's fun.

actually, mags are legal as long as they arent bouncing.

[Echo-Newb]

See? That's another reason this kid is dumb. Plus, I know for some tournaments that Mags are legal correct? But isn't it in like PSP they aren't or something?

[Lohman446]

As long as its one pull one shot mags are tournament legal in PSP and NPPL

[SAW]

I use a mag down here for tournies, so I guess so.
Don't let kids like that bother you, if you really want to end it, call them out on their words.

[B.A.M.]

I just used a mag in the NEPL and saw a couple others

[HoppysMag]

[Loud Tim]

top gun

[HoppysMag]

nope

[REDRT]

If all this up roar is because of you using a mag, get used to it. Mags are so misconceived it isn't funny. I get it all the time until I shut them out. Be nice and they will come around...

thread is about kids with all the high end gear in the world and the worst attitude in the world
(this is focused more on the attitude, i don't care if it's a kid with the nicest gear in the world, but if their attitude is that of a bragging trashtalking 6 year old, i can't just stand around and do nothing...especially if they randomly insulted my directly)
