Bad things always happen when I play

[SlipknotX556]

Well last month, we had a fire at the field, today after I left, my brother was driving me home, we saw an ambulance drving in the direction of the field, so we didnt know what was up. It was later, that my friends came the door and asked me if I knew what happend, I said no, so they informed me. Seems a kid got mad, at another kid, for something, dont know what, but the kids were in the staging area, well so they had no masks on, the kid shot the other kids ear point blank, the kid that was shot, lost hearing in his left ear, most of his ear was shot off.


All because a kid got mad that he got shot.

man

I hate hearing things like that, But I hate little kids ruining our sport, that is just stupidity in one of its forms. I hope the kid got banned from the field and hopefully the family does something about it

Dont know the exact details yet, but should be on tommorow mornings news.

I think what will happen, the kid will not be banned, the field is a church run field and the land for it is donated it will most likely shut down.

Man, that is so messed up. Hopefully something will be done to the kid that shot the other kid but it's hard to say if assalt charges would actually be filed. What's even worse is if the field gets shut down. I mean all those people that played there will no longer have a field to play at thanks to a stupid move by an even more stupid kid.

That sucks, last time I almost got killed by the mafia at the field.

Long story but some Italian 10 yr. old kid showed up and wanted to play on our team for a tourney. We said no but he shows up the day of the tourney anyway. Then we end up letting him play a few games and his brother gets pissed and threatens us because he claimed we were picking on him.

Worst thing is, this field is once a month. I usally play at another field 30min away, thats open every weekend. But the sad thing is this place, usually has over 400 people each month. The only other field is 30min away, charges 80 a case, 15 for entry and air cards.


This field is the biggest paintball event in florida, even has more people then waynes world scenaro games.

Besides the time thing, and i rather hang out with my friends, or at a club or go out with my girlfriend, or work on my car... thats another reason why I dont play paintball.

Because it wasnt fun anymore, everyone was getting all too serious, it wasnt about fun anymore. It was too competitive, and got real booring. It just didnt have that rush it use to have. Hope it comes back though... paintball was fun in its prime.

Maybe im getting old.. (lol only 18... birthday was yesterday!) but for some reason playing with cool looking guns and shooting plastic shelled balls filled with paint doesnt interest me anymore.

Sorry to say it but you're off your rocker.

Back to the topic at hand, that sucks dude. I hope that kid gets taught a lesson, and I hope the kid who got shot is OK. See kids, this is why there should be a genetic filter, and those with too low IQ's to pass through it should be drowned in cough syrup.

Man it really really gets to me when people think they can use paintball markers as a weapon to hurt someone intentionally. It doesn't set the sport back but when people that don't know anything about the sport see it in the paper they really get the wrong idea. Most people I talk to don't even know we where masks!

[robert heatwole]

i was there when it happend. very dirty site!!!

@R |< p43@R : (sorry, I, um, 'misspelled' your name ) I suggest you come to an AO meet. There you will find people that still play with honesty and integrity and don't do stupid things that ruin the sport for the rest of us. Often, with AO member, refs aren't even needed. You might also try pump play if the game is too boring for you.

Slipknot, I know that has to suck. But try looking around, I recently discovered a few fields I didn't know existed in my area. Also make sure that every time someone brings up the subject of how paintball is dangerous and refers to the incident where a little kid got his ear blown off by these 'high powered assault weapons' that you correct them and show them that it was human stupidity not paintball's fault that caused this. I hope the kid that got shot gets better, and as for the kid that shot him, he deserves to be castrated with a rusty spoon.

Man, I hate hearing about that kind of stuff. How do we ever expect to gain support of non players with wastes of daily feedings like that playing?
