What in the world is up with all the "1" ratings in the gun reviews? I agree that some guns aren't the best, but I can think of very few that deserve a 1! My conclusion is that most of these people are simply prejudiced against certain guns, regardless of how good they are. For instance, Kingman; I myself have never used a Kingman, but everyone I've talked to who owns one would say that they are a great gun. Yet, they earn a LOT of 1 ratings. This is obviously no more then petiness, and I would like to ask you, if you are one of the people who do this, to stop. You may think its fun to intentionally lower ratings of guns, but I must say that for those of us researching guns so we can buy one, it makes the decision much harder, as it is impossible to know what information is true and what isn't. Thank you, and please respond with your thoughts.

Yes, they are bs, but they kinda balance out all the equally bs 10's that guns earn.

If you think they're totally without reason, can't you report them?

Ratings are BS anyway, unless a thing gets straight 10's by ALOT of people you can pretty much throw the rating out the window.

There are a few high ranking markers that in the long run suck, and its all opinion anyway, you have John Doe newbie who has'nt paintballed for long and gives his spyder a 10 because he thinks its the best gun ever (which to him it is).

OMG RUN ON SENTANCES.

Report any and all fraudulent reviews. They will be taken care of in due time.
