 Spyders I don't like, but tippmann I do. My spyders trigger frame broke off when I was shooting it. Why would you want a gun like that.Thats mainly why everyone here hates Spyders.

Heres one of the many stories you have heard why Spyder users dont like Tippmann users...

Ive seen this everytime when my friends and I go woodsballing...inbetween each game I would see my friends doin somethin wit their Spyders(theyve had theirs fer a couple of years), either a ball broke in the barrel, the battery died, the hopper wont stay in place because the vert feed is wider than the neck of the hopper, a screw or 2 are loose (all this after the 1st 2 games) and any problems you can think of on a electro-marker and of course they would have to solve the problem on theyre own and try to fix it before headin out to the field....well as fer me, inbetween each game all I would do is wait fer them after refilling my pods and now Qpods fer my Qloader, eating a sandwiche and drinkin a Gatorade and my 98c would jus be sittin on the table waiting fer it to be picked up and to be used fer the next game and once in awhile I would experience a break and a chop inwhich I can remedy on the field during a firefight, as fer my friends, when they experience the same problem, they would spend too much time try to fix whatever problem that jus happened and while one or two is helping each other on the problem/s, I would usually be nearby to watch theyre backs wit my Tippmann.

At the end of the day, one of my friends "finally noticed" that hes never seen me do any kind of maintenance done on my 98c before and inbetween each game except fer refilling my 20oz co2 tank...and I merely told him I didnt have to do much to make my marker work and I told him straight up that Tippmanns are extremely reliable....then he paused and gave me that dumb look and said F that, Imma get a Tippmann next time when we go play....I even boosted up his ego by sayin "cool, now you can become a Tippmann Elite"

Do not steal....the government hates competition!

I know why people with Spyders hate you!!! Because Spyders are the scum of the paintball world!!! I have replaced my gun three times in 9 weeks and it has broken again. I was at the American Paintball Club yesterday and I couldn't fire more than 9 or 10 balls before my marker would jam and I had to call myself out. I personally believe that Spyders are by far the worst paintball markers in the entire sport. I would rather be shooting a Blade or a Talon. I am saving up for an A-5 to solve my Kingman problems. Oh, and their customer service sucks too!!! They also sell Imagines without the Jumper{which they sell separately for $12}and still say that they have semi, 3-burst, and full auto modes. I took needle nose pliars to mine!!! Now that little green peice of crap looks something like this little dude...  

What I got:
   Tippmann A-5
   Flatline Barrel
   E-Grip
   Comp-Air System
   88ci 5000psi Evil Scion
   Psycho Ballistic's Z-Drop

well they just think that since their guns shoot faster that they're better. that is part of it. because they're elecros and tippmanns are semi auto, that theirs are better. my uncle is going to probably be buying my cousin a gun. he said he looked into spyders and pirhanas. i told him if he had to get a spyder to get a high end one, but i said that the tippmann 98c is the best gun for that price range. i said i've heard great things about pirhanas, but nothing can touch my 98c!

i just bought a spyder imagine to test the durability and see self the performance for myself i already hate it. 1 it has to have a 9.6v batteries instead of a 9v. 2 i broke almost every ball even with a halo tsa. 3 it is sensitive to paint i was using the good stuff! i took out my a-5 had no problems ive only had to replace one thing, an o-ring on the rear bolt. nothing works like a tippmann "made in the U.S.A".go tippmann!!!

Kingman is becoming more and more like Brass Weasle, thier quality control is going down, thier adding more crappy features instead of working on the ones they've already got. They're starting to market to the ignorant crowd - making cheap guns with lots of eye-catching features that are of sloppy design and construction. They're using more and more plastic with each new gun they make.

IHMO, autococker users hate us more than spyder users.

Pretty much all of you are wrong. 

1. The "They're jealous" stuff is pure crap. If they were jealous, they'd do something about it and get a different marker.

2. "Spyders are the scum of the paintball world" Then explain to me how they can be successful in cloning their many markers, and making a killing in the recball circut. They provide affordable beginner markers to people who can't see spending $275 on an A-5 just yet.

  What they might NOT like, is the preponderance of 13 year old kids with tippmanns constantly trashing them and their marker. These are the same kids who come in here whining about how someone with a cocker made fun of his tippy....thats so mean, but hey.....let's go rag on this spyder! They don't hate tippmanns, they hate you.

Spyders, as I mentioned, are easy to afford for people who are getting into the game. One of my first markers was a spyder. I didn't like it, but it got me through games. So some of them might break. Not all of them will, and the only ones that will become seriously screwed up are in the hands of people who don't know how to take care of their markers.

.......I think THAT answers that question.

The statement the Spyders are getting like Brass Eagles- heh, other way around. The BE's are Spyder threaded barrels. The newer BE's (after the Marauder) fit the Spyder trigger frames. BE and Spyder are becoming the same. I swear Kingman must own BE.

As to why, why to people with Mustangs hate those with Camaros? Easy- they think they've got it all until the tranny breaks, while the Camaro still keeps on running.

Plus, anyone will try to brag that they're stuff is better. I've argued for a few minutes with a kid with a VL Orion, saying it was the best gun ever. Then two hours later I was fixing it for him.

There are like only 2 people in my Town that Own Spyders, and one of them just bought a new Evil omen a couple of Days ago...  When I'm in the proshop and looking around at practically stuff I cant afford but makes for good Eye Candy, anyways... A New players first thought is always looks, and they always walk near the Autococker Area, but then look at the price, and then pretty much run away from that area, then they wonder over too the Sypder Area and look at a E-99, or a Pilot, and right before they buy one, I Tell them "You, know that guns ganna break on you in about 6 weeks, right" then they get all defensive over a Spyder, then I get confused on some of there logic they come up with, then I tell them "Just Try a rental 98c for one game, I gurentee you that you'll enjoy that rental then you would with any of those Spyders" Then they play a game with the Rental, then a Few days later I may see them with a Big Red Tippmann box.

Yep.. Panda man, I have seen it many times myself.. as a matter of fact, my two friends finally sold their spyders ( as parts because they.. got a massive *unknown* air leak..) and got themselves tippmanns, and wish they listened to me sooner..

And 6 weeks.. wow, i have never heard that one, its like 3-4..
