      perfectly stated. my sentiments exactly. I like to do home mods on my gun, and sometimes i get ridiculed cause i use odds and ends to make some mods. i say if it works, it doesnt matter what it looks like. I feel too much importance is put on aestectics buy many advanced players. true, you dont want to spend thousands of dollars on gear you dont find appealing, but some only like their own style, and insist any other style sucks. I players like that, matching everything, at my fields all the time. Seems like a fasion show. ,kids prancing around with more outfit accessories than a high school prom queen. lots of primping and looking in the mirror. I even heard this guy say he wouldnt go into the snake cause tyhere was a little mud in it thatday and he didnt want to mess up his jersy. as for the remot, i played with one for about the first 7 months i paintballed. I loved it but i like to diev, slide and flop alot, so It became a little dangerous and inhibiting for my style of play. I still use it when i play with my old classic valve, but not that often, so i did make my decision to go to bottle on gun with knowledge of both setups.

        ...people who use something "just to prove them wrong" are gust as bad as the people that they are trying to prove wrong, anyway, yes, you can run a remote, and you can say "my skills will back it so that they wont talk crap" well, the honest to god truth, is that the kids out there with the remotes, or spyder setups (i know those spyder guys like to go on about how equipment dosent matter) are much worse than the "stuck up" guy out there with all his "expensive equipment" having such equipment is usually a sighn of dedication to what they do, yes, some kids just have their parents buy them stuff, but on average, the kid with all the "fancy equipment" and "$1000+ marker" is better than the kid with jeans and a mech. I know there are some super under cover ballers out there, but, i cant remember the last time some guy showed up at the field and showed everyone up with a pump or mech, thats just the way it is. People will go on and on about how equipment dosent make a player, which, is 100% true, but, on the same token, someone with the right equipment, on average, has skill to warrent owning that equipment.

        Its easy for someone with "bad" equipment to walk off the field claiming that a team beat them because of there $1000+ markers, and its funny that those are the same kids that go around preaching that equipment dosent matter.



        couldnt find a good one of me right now, so, here is one of my ninja teammates earlier this season
