VERY disgusted by the new Evil shirts

[einhander619]

I will make an effort to overshoot anyone wearing those shirts. Honestly, as if paintball doesn't have enough of a white trash image already...

I for one don't like the shirts from a rec ball point of view. If you pay to play a tournament and money is on the line I'm going to shoot until told otherwise (ref calls player neutral/eliminated) but that's NOT overshooting. Shooting a newbie in the goggles after they stand up after a hit just to make sure they know they are hit (I saw this as a ref and ejected the player)is overshooting and it stinks of a player that shouldn't be playing there (the overshooter).
The other two shirts are down right wrong. Refs have the worst job. In a sport as fast as paintball where they get hit more during a game than the players and are doing the best job they can, you need to respect the refs and let them do their job. Until we start paying refs enough that that is there full time job, there are going to be poor refs. But without them, there is no tournament paintball. The Cheating one....Nuff said. Nobody likes a cheater. Am I outraged..No. Will I stop buying Evil products because of the shirts...Yes. I say if you don't like the product don't buy it. If you think the product is in bad taste..don't buy any of their products

I would've worn the the Refs Suck shirt at cup, cause it was the most absolute worst reffing I've ever seen.

I think too many of you people who are always complaining about stuff that is just petty. I am a ref and i don't care about ref's suck shirt.


If you think overshooting is such a big problem then why do you have a gun that can shoot 16 balls a sec? Play in tourniments and see how many times you will get an overshooting call. Crap run for the center flag and get hit 20 times 10 breaks no call.

If you think it is such a problem get out of the sport. People look in to these thing way too much. Get over it our sport is an sport that requires some balls.

I will proudly model that shirt...

Oh and yeah i don't wear goggles shooting in my backyard. Give my a ticket.

Tournaments are not the problem in overshooting. I don't care how many times I get shot in a tourney. I don't know of any tournament player that would complain about being overshot. What I do care about is the tournamnet player playing recball at my field. They do have guns that can shoot 16bps and play against much less experienced players. They shoot volumes of paint at little kids and newbies who don't even try to shoot back because they got hit 15 times in the last game. They end up not coming back and that does hurt the sport. Is it a crime to overshoot..NO It is good for rec-ball...NO Instead of overshooting in rec ball try using some skill.

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

Ok try playing NPPL then you'll realize that overshooting/bonus-balling is needed. You get it done to you so you do it right back. Ref's do sometimes pull players for it but not that often.

I'm not gonna make fun of you like some people are doing. It's your view of it, you feel it is innapropiate and that is cool. To some it may be but to others it isnt. I actually like to get hit alot it's kinda fun. It doesnt bother me any.

Think of it this way:
"If you dont get shot, you cant be overshot"!!

You sound like a mother...get over it....

[Shockerboy18]

rock on moats that is the best thing ive heard out of this post for the rest of you that read way to far into these shirts get a life

[Trunnion]

i actually can't find anything in the NPPL rules about overshooting. i may be missing something, but i checked the section on penalties and it makes no mention on overshooting. if we're to follow those rules, it's not a foul. painful sometimes, perhaps, but not a crime

[Automaggin2]

I have played in many a tournameents, i know, but im talking about from a rec player point of view. and still, i do shoot people until they are off the field, but i know people in NPPL shoot people even when they are clearly walking into the dead box, and when a ref calls someone out or calls them neutral

[i-luv-my-rt]

It's not a written rule but it is a judgement call. It's like yelling or swearing and that stuff. If refs wanted to they would pull you for it.

Overshooting is bomb and will always be a fav thing to do. If you dont let it bother you then it seems to be pretty fun.
