| im sure most of us have done it, strapped a ordinary video cam to the top or your hopper...... well so have i. ive made some pretty sweet videos, but last weekend i was snow-balling and my very expensive digital camera took one right up the lens and broke. killed it permanently. i thought tippmann should patent a small video cam that u can easily mount to any hopper for pure paintball use. maybe even a protective metal shell too. tell me what ya think |

Well I don't think Tippmann is a company that specialises in Digital electronics. Tippmann might be capable of doing it but there are plenty of small Camera's already on the market. It is a good idea but I think all you need to do is buy one and make a PVC cover to stop the paintballs from hitting and "killing it". No real need for metal shell (it's just excess weight) especially if you have strong enough plastic covering it. |

| yea didnt think about that. if anything, tippmann could just by some cheap cams and modify them. |

what would you describe as a "mean" gun? doesn't the player make the gun? i'd rather be playing against a n00b with a dm5 than a world-class veteran pump player with his sl-68II...

No and I don't think any one here can explain it to you because no one here plays what some call paintball. -------------

What the heck? I IS NOT TEH FUROM IDOIT! SCEW YOU!! *A tear (or two) drip down Phil's face.*
*Phil starts punching his pillow* *Phil starts balling out loud like a little girl and screaming WHY ME? WHYYYYY?* *Phil continues punching his pillow* *Phil starts punching his wall* *Phil goes to the kitchen to ice his bloody knuckles and broken wrist* *Phil reads the rest of Hybrids post "But he takes it like a man"*
*Phil stops balling like a little girl and smiles and feels proud of himself that he can take all of this hatred like a man*

Now I'm just insulted. At first it was the blatent hatered for 'cockers by a guy who probably doesn't know what one is. Now, Kickingwing thinks I'm a 'cocker n00b. This hurts. ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Here at Carl INC. our scientists got to work on the problem right away.
They laboured around the clock in sticky conditions and for little pay, in search of a better cause. They used sarcasm testing strips to finally find the sarcasm molecule
magnified 10000000000000X:
Their mission was a success, they had found the sarcasm in his post therefore making the world a better place. Then they went to the ice cream shop for Hot Fudge Sundaes. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

We'll see if Phil takes getting strikes like a man if he keeps using astericks in place of foul language. Words are filtered for a reason, that means don't use them or allude to using them. |
