We have run them out of town—both on the internet forums, and on legal chariots in the name of our financial interests.

The inventors and dreamers have been ridiculed, sued, discouraged, and destroyed.
Large companys sue the crap out of the average joe inventor if they think they might be using their basic designs..

WGP stopped making there own makers a long time ago for steady reliable profit and now make crap walmart spyder clones...

To Be Honest theyve brought it on themsleves..

The invert Mini... Completly new design of marker no macro line, single tube, Give us a high end reliable version of that !

Development has been focused on markers while when was the last inoventive break through on a hopper or an air tank ( that doesnt explode ) ??

What? Don't understand how that would help, can you explain your reasoning?
so that innovation isn't too quick and doesn't spike ... atm the technology spiked each year till well ... this year seems to be the main plateau point.

why not limit the companies to a gun / series of guns every 2 years then at least you then don't have more complaining or whining when its not new new shiny bits etc ... gives the designers chance to scribble more thus creating more innovative ideas.

And how do you plan to limit companies to a gun every two years? Seeing as we live in a free capitalist economy.

Time is not the main factor limiting innovation in any industry but cost. The cost of implementing a certain technology/innovational step forward in a product has to be cost effective. The newer the technology you want to use the more it will cost.

plus in formula one there is no two year limit on car development. Its a continual cycle that never ends from one year to the next. Something that cannot be commercially implemented before somebody suggests it :p
