quick question on slang

[grupps]

why in the HELL(pardon the language mods) ... but why the he HELL are all these folks startin to call markers "gats" ? its pissing me off, it's making me feel like they're tryin to make paintball like an act of violence or something, like they're out to kill someone...a gat? i think it makes a bad outlook on the sport and i dont like it, all the young whippasnappaz need to learn what a MARKER is and stop with the crap man! jesus, what is up with it all though, someone care to enlighten me?

[BobTheCow]

lol, the only person I've seen actually use gat in reference to a paintball marker is FragTek, and I think the only reason he carries that on is because of people like you who get worked up over it.

Gat's a cool word, I never use it, but it's still cool. markers are for pussy's real men use gat's.

me! a wigger. naaa... but everyone who i talk to call it a paintball gun, and when a parent looks at it no matter what they see a gun, not a marker. When you say marker it doesn't take the vision of someone bunkering someone, or anything like that. There is no difference between a paintball marker and a paintball gun, i hope kids parents can see that they are the same, because if they can't they are very stupid parents.

[grupps]

i aint bein rude or nothin bro i'm just sayin...i dont get it...gats? new slang, i just think it stupid lol

[illshowumyramrod]

ya, i dont understand why they call it gats, but its not that big of a deal. Do your parents care??? I know my parents hardly even know i play paintball. If parents do care, then there kids should just not use the word. I understand where your comming from, and u really do not give a damn about the word gat, but i didn't understand if u dont care why u posted it U might have been pwing it up, but lets pw some useless info instead of info that might get debated against
