    VERY disgusted by the new Evil shirts



    Maybe something like Paintball is not a crime, but overshooting is not a crime? come on!







    Am i the only one who thinks these shirts are complete BS. Let someone walk into work or school with a shirt saying Overshooting is not a crime, people wouldnt think paintball. I dont belive overshooting is not a crime, i think its horrible

    HEy, i keep laying paint on some one till i see their hand, i personally put 9 balls into a guys back because he turned and moved before he put his hand up, that and i was firing fast to kep him from bunkering me, but the refs never tell me to stop, i tell every one, and my team does o, the second you get hit, raise your hand, or were unloading untill i see your hand up. That to me is not over shooting, now if you mean, shooting some one in the dead box, or something then ok, but i think the shirt is reffering to what i said


    Also, i feel that people would ask, opver shooting? what else could that be? you saying a shirt isnt exceptable if it says thwe word shoot on it?

        what? hmmmm, a friend of mine owns a screen printing machine, and he made shrts that said "light em up!" and he got in a lot of trouble in school because teachers dont know what it stands for. About 3 years ago i got sent down to the principles office for reading a paintball magazing in lunch. It was "unappropriate school material" according to a teacher. Thank god one of my teachers (who plays paintball and has 2 LCD's) had to BAIL me out of getting in trouble.

            If that was a tournament, that's fine. If that was rec-ball, that's CRAP. That is over shooting and is uncalled for. Just because the ref didn't tell you to stop doesn't mean anything. New players can rarely remember all the things they need to do fast enough. It can be very overwhelming. I hope you didn't do that in a rec-ball game.

                ok I could care less about the over shooting one, but come on, cheating is bad enough without people wearing shirts encouraging it; and from every sport I play, I consider it a constant rule, respect the refs, they may say refs suck, but I say those shirts suck,

                i don't really care what they have on them, but they are crap, one line of text, I wouldn't pay money for a black or gray shirt with only 14 letters on it

                  The first two shirts I see as having very bad taste, but not really offensive. However, the "refs suck" shirt is terrible. They're the ones sacrificing their time for this sub-par job, and doing it because it helps out tournaments and paintball all together. Plus, I'm sure ANYONE who has ever reffed before would not give a thought to buying one of these, which is a great deal of players. Then there are the players who do respect refs, and the ones who just don't like the shirt anyway. PMI did a good job of appealing to about 1% of the paintball market.

                    oh... my... god...

                    Look... when you play paintball, are you thinking... "Hmm, I better not shoot that guy too much, that would hurt the reputation of the sport oh no " or are you thinking "Aight I'm gonna have this guy shoot some paint over there and I'm gonna make a run for that beer can up there."

                    Truthfully, these shirts are for fun... please people, give it a rest, we are paintballers, and we play because we love the sport, if people view our sport as a war game, than so be it... I view skateboarding as sort of a punk sport... people who do it are very skilled at what they do, but act like they are all that and a bag of chips... atleast the ones I know.

                      let them say refs suck. it's just gonna make me watch them more when someone wearing any of those shirts shows up on my field while i'm reffing. and if i catch them cheating, well, they'll still think refs suck, but the rest of the players that night won't.

                        in response to the overshooting and giving the sport a bad repution, I do not think about the reputation of the sport when I will over shoot, which is just until I see a hand or I see visible hit and they stop shooting, i do think what will make the sport better, I try my best never to over shoot a new player, if i had been overshot on my first day of paintball I would probably have quit,

                        and yes i do think about the ethics of overshooting while and after I do it, in some instances it is necessary, but in some it is just a way for people with big egos and low self-esteem to beat up on newbies and act tough

                              Well, its not over shooting when u send 13 balls at someone then they get hit, then a few more come because they already left the gun before u even hit him, but if you continuely shooting at someone, THATS OVERSHOOTING.
