That's just crazy. You should NEVER accept cheating as part of the sport. It's INSANE for you even to think like that. Cheating is not going to become part of the sport. SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE CHEATER...

If you are out then get your *** out, you are hit, you are out, even if no one sees it...and if you think it's ok to cheat, then I hope you and I never have to play together.

I'll just make an assumption and assume you play recball

LOL, just what I was thinking when I read his post.

I really don't see a lot of cheating down here. The last local tourney I watched they had plenty of refs both on the field and on the sidelines, just an outstanding job on the fields part. I knew two of the kids on the team that placed last, and despite their disappointment even they were happy with how it was reffed.

Still doesn't make it right, though. I hate the "everone is doing it, so we will too" defense. Two wrongs don't make a right. That's all I've got to say.

Yes I do play recball.

So you are saying it's ok to cheat as long as you are doing it for money or something like that?

Because I play recball does that mean I don't understand why a person would cheat.

Cheating is cheating folks, and it's just that, it's being dishonest. What is left when honor is gone?

And I don't understand why you people laugh and say "I assume you play recball."

The most dishonest, loud mouthed and worst players I've played with have always been High tech gun toting, jersey wearing speedball players.

Paintmonkey, we did not say is ok, but at this point it is part of our sport. It's integrated into the tourney scene, and there's almost no escaping it. We laughed, because at a recball point of view you don't exactly get this yet.

BTW, I have dealt with both rec play players and tourney players that are total jerks.

I know that cheating is a big part of the sport, but it shouldnt have to be. I've played agaisnt cheaters before (mainly the speedball crowd). My take is to never accept it as part of the game.

[CoFFeY[NiTrO]]

The only time I ever whipe/have whipped, is when the freaking retarded ref's make the teams so unbelivably unfair. As in like when they let the 'bad asses' pick the teams, and all they do is pic the people with cool looking guns, I usually offer to be on the side with all the rentals cause the teams get so unfair

ok, go to a tourny and then come back.. untill then i'm not gonna argue.. It's like arguing with a kid about why humans kill other humans.. they just can't comprehend why.

[Paintmonkey]

Yea I mean I know why people cheat, makes perfect sense. I may not fully know why people cheat, just like the little kid you talked about. But you know, you might not be able to explain why people kill, but you still know that it is wrong...

That's all I'm saying.

[LoveMyMagMoreThanYou]

So, now that we don't accept that people cheat we're equivalent to little children or imbeciles? I rather resent that. Don't cheat and get caught on my field. You won't like it. You won't do it again either.

woa there jimmy, we have an internet hardass here.

Sorry, been there, done that. Cheaters are cheaters - with all of the qualifications and duies owed therein. Cheating in paintball is NO WAY the equivalent of a foul in basketball, or a penalty in football. Its low, and those who engage in it have no business on the course - I don't care WHAT "the other guys are doing." Does it go on, a lot? Yes it does. Does that in ANY way make it "a part of the game?" Hell no!

What really shocks me though, is the attitude. The "well I play in tournaments, and I've seen the cheating that goes on up there so I know its part of the game" kind of attitude. It makes me sick to think that those players who would push themselves to a level of play called for in tournaments would accept that as "part of the game."

All I can say is I sure as heck hope YOU guys don't cheat - in a tournament or not!

I'm with the FatMan.........

how about this situation... you shoot a guy, he doesn't go out. blatantly wipes it, like on the hopper or mask even. So your like, ok, i'll go do him, make sure he goes out. On the way there, your a couple feet from the bunker, and you take one while your running. Are you all saying that you would stop right there, and be like, good shot, and skip to the dead box? hell no, I'd run through and shoot him, at least make them pull both of us.
