AGD really is a niche company.

AO is great, as long as you are introducing something new to them. It seems that AO clamors over truly new ideas from AGD - and likely attributes some to buying htem. The problem with a stagnate product line though, is most everyone who was interested in it when it was new either has it now, has already tried it and moved on, or has decided against it. Each new thing gives you a new shot... but wtihout new things you are depending on drawing in new customers. Unfortunately I dont' see AGD positioned well to do that - but, thats not what this thread was intended for...

What I meant was that it has been stated [I believe.. right?] that AO is AGD's entire marketing budget. With what I can only believe to be low sales numbers [see any Check Out My New Pro-Classic threads?], obviously AO is not selling too many guns.

That said, I like AO and I like coming here, but if this is the only way AGD is getting the word out about its new products..

I think most do, and are glad they are.

I had two warps, pain in the arse to get running right! Glad I sold them................

I'm amazed at how many people do not even know what a Mag is... and how many have no clue what my gun is.

Was also at the splatterpark game, didn't see any warps out there so I didn't see you with your mag. BTW which team did you end up on?

Yeah I played in a tourney the other day with my warped 'cocker (cowers in fear of flaming) and everyone was staring at me and they thought it was real cool, I can't deny though, I'm running it on an old SNiper 2 changed to a cocker and it's HEAVY!

My thoughts:

- I agree that many people are missing out on AGD's quality products. I like mags, though I don't have any illusions that they are in any way/shape/form the "best"

- I do think that a large portion of users on AO take a very negative view on people who don't use or know about mags. This is evidenced by many, many threads and posts.

- I think that people are too quick to call each other cheaters and claim that they have no skills. I find that the majority of these people have not or do not regularly compete in tournaments. Why do they do this? I can only speculate.

- I do think Warps are a great product; however, I think they're one of those "love it or hate it" products.

- I think it's sad when people make statements implying another's lack of intelligence because they do not use or hear of AGD. AGD hasn't marketed for quite some time. Considering the lack of technological developement, willingness to follow market trends, and the general disdain exhibited by AGDers and AOers towards people who use ramping and adjustable settings, it's not reasonable to question why tournament players and newer players simply haven't heard of AGD.
