why the hatred???

[BLiNDMAN]

tippman or spyder??? well.. y do ppl who have tippmans hate spyders or vice versa??? i have a shutter i like it but doesn't mean i hate the tippman... i've heard alot of good things about the tippman... i got the shutter cuz its easy to maintain and the looks... i wouldn't mind getting the tippman either(easy to maintain also)... its just that i don't like the look too much.. so can anybody tell me y the hatred?

[BaD AnDy]

I don't hate Tippmans, but I do know what you mean. I own a shutter too and I do hear alot of fighting over which gun is better and things like that.

I have a dream that day tippmann and spyder owners will be able to live in harmony. I HAVE A DREAM!

[Counterfeit]

So you dream of the day when I won't kick your butt every day? :)

[Andrew]

Yah thats it?

[Phaelon Veritas]

ahhh it's all good I got a piranha and I like it very alot
ya know why I like it more than tippmans or spyders cause it's mine I have put custom parts on it and I am the one who cleans it fixes it buy all kinds of cool stuff for it I feed it plenty of paintballs and keep her lube up I am the one who goes to bed with it ...errr umm...well yeah I like it more simply because it's mine not because it is better
but more because I have put alot of work into my gun as I am sure that everyone else has as well and the pride they show for they're guns will not allow for someones opinion of why my gun is not good.... it works for me and I like it...plain and simple lets face it if it's not a blade samurai or stingray II then we're doing better already right?

[Paintball Monkey]

You guys are lucky I don't live closer or I would have to kick both of your asses :D

[Andrew]

hehehe

I have never understood it. I guess it's like the Ford/Chevy thing. Some people just need something to fight about, and which gun is better seems good enough to them. I think it really comes down to which gun you are most comfortable playing with, and how much effort you are willing to put into your marker. I have seen guys who blow 60-70 hrs working on their Stingrays, just to get them to work like a stock spyder/M98. Their happy though, and really that is all that matters I guess. I might not understand it, but I'm willing to accept it.

[PBSouLjAh]

yea, i think most of the time its just like a rivalry kinda thing. its probably because they are in the same price range, but both are differnt by personal preferences, and people dont accept each other's gun because they just have a few things they like about their own gun instead of da other gun. *u get dat?* anyways, i still think my STOCK M98 CAN KICK ALL YOU ANGELS AND BUSHIES AND SHOCKERS' BOOOOODDDAAAAAAAAAAAY ANY DAAAAAAY!!!!! hehe....just playing.

[Watupi]

What he said. Most people will be bias to whatever gun they bought.

[Crisis]

It's funny. People glare at me when i'll bring my BE Rainmaker along.. They make bad comments like i'm going to wipe you out first thing... Funny i'm usually last off the field, oh what a pitty.. i think the whole gun vs gun & Chevy vs Ford arguments are all ***** envy. no one ever thinks of the operator.

[BLiNDMAN]

crisis i have to agree with u on that

[Angst]

Buying a gun for looks is a mistake.

[ElectricHead]

i dont think anyone can disagree with that..
and angst your signature doesnt make sense, i think it should be you cant spell slaughter withough laughter
maybe im wrong but it seems to me you cant spell laughter with slaughter cause theres an s on the beginning of slaugher-slightly off the subject but i just thought id mention it

[Andrew]

electric thats a funny sig


angst is your sig backwards?

[ElectricHead]

I dont think the M98 is better than the shutter or vice versa i think it is basicaly your own oppinion whether which one is better and if you cutomize it
