Such snobbery from someone who (and I am taking a stab in the dark here) runs around in bouncy castles screaming like a girl, wearing pink (so cool), and stamping their feet while petulantly announcing 'I shot him first', then spraying as much paint around as possible, and then complaining about the cost of it afterwards...
Of course, thats not you, right? But I'm sure you know someone like that. However I don't know anyone that likes wearing ghillie suits, or that 'pantomime' with their gun as you indicate above....
I dont think he meant that in an aggressive way. I do know some people that mod out their guns and wear the full kit, by the way. When the price comes down and conversion sets come out for Tippmann's I can see these catching on
