A thought on flames...

Evening gents.  This is my first post on the tippmann forum.   Perhaps I should have introduced myself prior to making such a negative post, but oh well whatever.  What I wanted to say is that I find it rather interesting that everyone is so quick to jump on the new player when they ask questions that have been answered in prior months.  Granted, I try to look around allot before I ask my question to attempt to find an answer.  I have an old car a 79 vette and I am a member of 1/2 a dozen forums that I use to find information, about maintenance events etc.  Therefore I know to look before asking.   But what I have noticed is that on those forums people are willing to help.  If I ask a question that has been answered.  They often will find the link and give it to me.   Or they will re-type what they have said in the past.  You see, the reason that is is because we realize that we are all members of a select community.  A group of people organized in protection, and maintaining things that we love.  Paintball is the same way.  So I am going to ask why people must be harsh and rude in their ignorant treatment of newbs.  I have never experienced this on any of the other forums to which I am a member?  Perhaps this is why paintballs reputation can at times be questionable.  What is a practical solution to this I ask?  I think it is simple, if people realize that they are not gods gift to the earth, and remember that at one point in their life they where newbie’s as well.  Furthermore, if we treat each other with humility and grace.  And truly try to help each other the PB community will begin to grow, become even more competitive, and draw in younger audiences, resulting in larger revenues for the pb developers, and fields.  This will benefit us through better equipment and better arenas.  So this is what I charge you with.  If you are enangered by repetitive post, then simply don’t read it or respond.  If you are so childish that you must flame those whom do re-post then grow up.  Help people for a change instead of showing your rear ends.  Just my 2 cents.  79 

also take in mind that 75% of the ppl on this forum are 12.

woot 300 posts.

srry this kinda seemed like the most appropriate place to post this.

ElCid79:  Good post.  Welcome to the forum.  You are right about other folks needing to realize they are not gods gift to the earth;  there is only one of me.

one of the interesting things about the vpower, at least when i got it, was that they reported true wattage.. not peak, so its a 200 watt amp....   also, the sub has a 200 watt amp... why you might be asking did I spend so much money on the speakers, and head unit,  and put a boxed sub in.... instead of doing a complete custom job...   here is the answers.. I had priced a completely custom setup with a 400 watt farenheit amp, i think it was 400.  but the problem with this was, no matter how i looked at it I would loose the use of the only storage space in my car.   this is a big problem in a T-Top.  Oh, also the site is allittle out dated.  I have changed many things.  such as the boxes the rear speakers are in, will be gone when i put her back together.  they where temporary to see A how i liked the kenwood excellons, and B I new i was going to be completely redoing the interior in a matter of months.   they will return to the original locations in the far back of the car.   Overall the system plays louder than you ever could want for it too.  The speakers are all of about 2 feet away from your head.  So the smaller sub, which fits under the enclosure screen, which is why i picked it, is MORE than ample for the application.  Also, the component front speakers balance very well with the kenwoods.  they give a very wide frequency response and accentuate the high to mid range audio superbly... then the 10' sub fills in all that is needed in the bass line.   overall it is a strikingly well balanced system, in a car that was TRUELY a pill to decide upon parts for.....  Also, when a car is pushing 475 hp,,,,  the sound of the motor is like music to the ears... 

So the Apline is powering up the highs and the mids while you have the Inifinity powering the up the low end right?
