We can't all be bunker hugging tourny whores :p
He needs to find his niche. While I don't condone the idea of a paintball 'sniper' or the One-Shot-One-Kill thing they preach ( it's the "kill" bit I have problem with) I have to admire their dedication and hard work. Check out the site Skull, if only to laugh at the ghillie suits, but the amount of work that these guys put into thier game is huge. They deserve a little respect for that at least
As long as Brenden is enjoying himself, we should encourage him.

phew, enough soap boxing for one day

Tip : Never, NEVER, step on your ghillie suit while moving up. :)

And snipers, well, I don't condone it either, becasue ther'es no real "sniper" in paintball. I just covered this in the mag, along with a bunch of tips. Lemme see if the PGI folks archived it...

There ya go. EVERYTHING you need to know to get started. :)

Now if you wanna build your own suit... That's "Squeegie's" department. :)

"Bunker hugging tourney whores..."

Nice one darkwerks...you brightened up this most morbid of days.
:)

Yeah its a laugh all the rec ball stuff but the guns just dont shoot far or accurate enough to make it real enough.
It would be great if there were snipers that could pop you cleanly from the other side of a forest but I'm not prepared to suffer internal bleeding from a paintball going 1,500 fps or more:)

Being a sniper without having modified equpment...

The word SNIPER... :rolleyes:

In my humble opinion the word sniper is just a person SNEAKING around... Why people think of military persons with scoped rifles capable of shooting several kilometers is purely by association, and is probably only one of the things the word covers for!?

It could as easily cover for a stealthy indian or something... :eek:

That is why I dont have a problem with Snipers... When I on occasition play some rec-ball I could easily call myself a sniper, even though the only difference from the other players would be my style of playing!! :eek: Would I be less sniper than the guy in a Ghillie Suit??

Pinky - The person that goes into "Sniper mode" when entering the woods... :D

I have no problem with "snipers" my problem lies with those damm ghillie suits, The paint hardly ever breaks on them, I play with a kid who wears one and after a game he literaly comes back and shakes the unbroken balls out :mad: :mad:

Apart from the fact that your walking around looking like an ill womble there ridiculous, how many people do u think would complain if i went out to play in 5 layers of bubble wrap??????? it basically amounts to the same thing.

Im getting quite stressed wrighting this so im gonna leave it there for now before the pc gets launched out the window.....
