What would you do?

[painball]

I woulda shot him back too. Once it gets too a certain point where someone makes you mad enough. Your emotions take over and you have to hurt him. Seriously though. Anyone does that to me they'll get dumped on till they stop.

[hostage]

you did the right thing, duno what others may think, though I am pretty sure if anyone else was in that situtation they should do the same.

use it

This is from another thread, have to put this one in the Quotes.

Wes Janson:
It's things like that which make one desire very strongly to beat the crap out of unsportmanlike players.

You just got yourself some experience and from that you are better for the next time

To hard on your self

Self defence , plain and simple.
i would have done the same

[devildog]

i would have walked over to him through the relentless barage of paint, and flat out jaw jacked him. he would have been picking teeth up off the floor.

[Crighton]

It's pretty hard to keep your cool in a situation like that. I probably would have done something much worse after my temper snapped.


no harm, no foul. The guy was banned and got a little taste of his own medicine. Maybe he will think twice about it next time.

[Crime Dog]

Sorry to hear about that man...

I'm pretty much with shartley though. But also, as he said, I totally understand why you did that. It would have been hard for me too if I was getting lit up that bad...

Hope to be there soon man. My Emag should be back today. We'll try to hook up and play some ball...

[robdamanii]

To be perfectly honest, I've had something similar happen.

Playing on one field, right after I got my angel, I went for the flag, and took it in. Hung the flag, and got utterly lit up in the back by a guy with an R/T A5.

Being shot up doesn't bother me, but when he kept on going (about 60 or so rounds), I just got pissed off, turned around, and unloaded the rest of my halo (about 80 rounds) right into him.

Should I have? Probably not, but I don't particularly enjoy taking head shots from about 15 yards.

The onyl saving grace for both of us was that it was cold outside, and about 5 layers helped deaden the impact some, but the head shots hurt just a bit. We both got to sit out a game and cool off, but surprisingly, the guy was cool about it. He apologized for being trigger happy, I apologized for blowing through half a hopper on him, we shook hands, and went back out and played each other again for the better part of the day.

It's all in how you handle it afterwards, regardless of your "without thinking" decisions. Since both of us were willing to admit wrong and apologize, it became a pretty cool situation real fast. That, and the fact that we both had to sit for overshooting made it feel like we were both wrong and we both made a mistake.

What sight?

It's Hindsight (All one word, not high site) is 20/20. As in, "when i look back blah blah"

I don't know what I personally would have done... I've never been in that situation, thankfully.

[Wc Keep]

i have to agree with shartley in that the correct thing to do was to find cover and be like what the **** is your problem. but what i would have done is probably emptied my hopper on him. again its not the right thing to do. i feel that over shooting someone especially in an unsportsman like manner is very wrong.

[Torbo]

i would have blasted him. the ref really should have done something. Yes, the "right" thing to do would be to hide or something. But thats definatly not what would happen. I would spontaneously lay the nastiest stream ever at him.

I threw everything me and my viking had at him.

[Barfly]

yeah I believe it is called Fight or Flight. I would have done the same thing turned and started shooing back at him. It is defensive action though, someone punches you, you better punch him back or run away. Either choice would be defensive imo.

[FutureMagOwner]

when similar stuff like that happens i normally just swear very very loudly but if someone did that intentionally in a situation id end up doing something similar to that derder trailer because if i ever got that pissed i would nail him.

[$tevo]

I would have met him in the parking lot, kick the poop out of him. then blown his car up.

not really. but i would have been so pissed! i would have just ran away and look for a bunker then try to find out why he did it after he ran out of paint or until the refs had stopped him, then if he gave me the wrong answere, pop him one in the mask
