Sponsorship

[spangley_special]

I feel like a moany tart, having heard their story. Please dont select read, I am not saying these boys are a disgrace to paintball as they clearly are not, just speak your brains on guys supported by a manufacturer and using other manufacturers parts to 'boost their game' and slagging off their manufacturers parts.

wat?

...all i'm doing is wishing yorkie and watford reformed all the best

All I am saying is I agree, its a great story and best of luck... stating i feel like a moany old tart which goes hand in hand with what you said. Quoting you wishing them luck.

You wish, I know what I am trying to ask and it just seems that this thread is going the same way most do on this forum - to select read and even though i correct what I have said, constantly stating its got nothing to do with this team, thats just an example, people continue to try and keep me to shut up and feel bad for saying anything at all.

Until I will finally agree to taking everything I can from the paintball community and give nothing back as this is what everyone does so s** it why not me too.

Hi Yorkie,

Thanks for clarifying this so we can move on from your team, and discuss the real matter that I wanted to discuss and that is supported teams using other bits of kit which manufacturers do not allow, but get away with because it is hidden.

I respect what you are doing, and its great don't get me wrong, your lads were a pleasure to play with in the first game, (said good luck, shook hands at the end) and even the second game, minus a bit of testosterone which is to be expected and easily forgiven let alone your team approaching us to apologise! exactly what is needed even though it was a small thing.

My issue is not with your team, and it is quite clear there is no issue to be had there, my issue is with other people (Jamie Kerr on youtube) on his gear bag video, he rants on about eclipse being the best, finds dye pads and says oh well no one can see them. It happens alot and I wanted to know the general opinion, and as far as I can see Tom Allen believes, it doesnt matter at such a small level and it is something we will just have to live with. Where as Missy and I want to stick up for the integrety of the sport and not let it be over-run by people not sticking to what they agree with a manufacturer.

None of which you said when you satrted the thread you did pick on this team as your original point, so anyone reading it would think you were digging them out. So well done on the back track it almost worked

maybe it'd be better to bin the entire thread and start again with:

"what do people think of teams misrepresenting their sponsors?"

and leave specific (even hinted at) teams out of it.......

Every post on this forum, comes from something, this is where my post came from, if you look at how I finished the post I wanted your ideas on this EXAMPLE! I never once said look guys I found some s***heads! Lets get em!

Sure enough I should have spent more time on the first thread outlining my intention for this thread, look at my second post and anything from then on, no where have I stated I want a witch hunt. Trying to twist my words in an unclear thread when I have stated on several occasions my real intention... its shocking really.

Believe me I wanted to bin this thread a while ago, but I just like how I try and put my point accross, you have stated it, Missy has and countless others but this gets overlooked... yet everyone else is SHOCKED I overlooked them being sponsored by the council.

Ah well.

Unfortunately I haven't select read this thread, I've read every single mind numbing word. In my opinion you have back tracked from attacking a team because it was clear you didn't have the full facts, to trying to form a serious discussion around a similar subject. (which by the way is a relevant discussion that does hold water and I tend to agree with)

My point is that you don't seem to be able to put across your feelings in any kind of organised way, either that or you really were trying to put your nose in where it wasn't needed with regards to Yorkies team...
