I played the last night. There was a group of kids, they had a team. They also had money, lots of money. When I was against them we won a lot, because their team hadn't yet learned the art of moving up.

And when I was on their team, I saw one of them get hit on top of the mask as he ducked into a bunker with his friend. I thought I heard his friend say: "don't worry man, just wipe that *stuff* off"

I was infuriated, and kicked myself for not telling them so.

At the end of the night, someone bunkered a guy that was on that team. He was shot many times, and was rather vocal about his disdain for the person that overshot him.

Then, that person walked over to this ranting kid and started yelling back. They exchanged for a while until eventually I heard the bunkerer say. "well you would have just wiped it if I only shot you once"

It shut the kid up pretty quick.
And I was glad.

I hate wipers and always will. If you ever get shot and realize that you could easily get away with wiping it, just shoot yourself twice in the gogs, and then think of all the money you'll save by not shooting any more paint for the rest of the round.

Yesterday when I was playing, I noticed a bunch of paint on the top of my mask after I had run to my second bunker. I asked one of my teamates if it was splatter or a hit. All he said was, "Wipe it a little." So I turned and asked one of my freinds (other guy was just someone else who came there, didn't know him) if it was a hit. He said it was. After I got off the field, I switched my vest, cause' playin with cheaters just doesn't feel right.

one time i shot a newb straight in the bottom of the mask and he kept right on playing....... it is annoying when ppl do that..

Here's a story from when my friends and I went rec ballin a couple weeks back.

We were playing at Tombstone, on the Foxholes. This field is really a lot of fun. Its half set up pipes speedball (with a hill about thigh high dividing the sides) and half set up with X shaped plywood bunkers.

As we were playing, one of the kids on the other team starts moving up cover, not being noticed by anyone but me. I called out his position, and let a few shots go. They werent accurate enough to hit him, but he got the point all the same. He couldnt return fire thanks to my flatline barrel I was using. So he ducks behind the bunker. One of my front men swiftly runs over the hill without being shot at and quickly bunkers the guy (my friend was shooting pink fill, the kid was shooting green). So he gets off like 4 shots. The kid then procedes to blind fire two shots over the bunker into my friend. Needless to say that hurt. Since the refs didnt see it happen, both got pulled.

Lesson:
If you get shot, call yourself out.
Blindfiring is not just against the rules, its dangerous, and not mention stupid.

CHEATERS SUCK

I think that has been well established

. However SOMETIMES and I strees the sometimes it is an honest mistake. For instance I was at Conquest Paintball in So Cal and some people who had never played before were renting. We one of them gets a shot in the head (mask) but it looks like splatter and he wipes it off to see and continus firing. He only got off 1 shot before his own team said dude your out. He said Oh ok and left no biggy so that was an honest mistake. On the other hand there are the stupid spoiled cheaters that makes bunkering hem even more of a pleasure

. The moral is well yeah bunker cheaters... No but after a while their reputation is so reunied it will no longer be fun for them but they really screw up the best sport in the world

Welcome to the wonderful world of paintball!!

There is nothing worse than snap'n against someone who is wiping hits off there forearms, elbows, visors, and hoppers. Or worse yet, refs that go over and "help" clean-up that "splatter" for there favored team. That is what really boils my kettle. It makes you want to run up to the refs and stick them right before you bunker the guy behind that bunker. It happens at alot of tourny's. Favoritism=POO

It's all part of the game though, and you will see it happening no matter where you play. I look at it this way. If you play honest every time you are on the field people notice, appreciate and respect that. The hard part is to have faith that the guy/gal across the field is play'n the same way.

If you do come across that guy that is wipe'n, bounus-ball'n ya after you call yourself out, don't hesitate to go run by his bunker and stick him during the next match!

If I found a guy whipin i would stand up walk to him and cover him from head to toe in paint.

when ever i play paintball i always always see cheating ppl being hit and just playing on I hate it. most of the time now when i play i play with my friends ppl trust and know when i shoot them they'll leave even if the ball didn't break the fact they where hit is good. I lost all intrest in plya tourny paintball just because all all The cheating its just sad. I dont' blame the ref's there busy doing there work and can't see it all. i'm back to play 1on1 3on3 with friends since its a fair game and don't matter who wins or loses its all good and fun. CHEATING IS LAME dont' matter what your reason is any one who even waits for a ref to call them out is a cheater. When i'm hit i Leave thats it i don't care i know i was hit and 20% of the time the ball didn't even break but i still called MYSELF out main point is i called MYself out not have the ref remove me from the feild. Only thing in Paintball i can't stand is cheaters and sadly alot of the time it ends up in a fight

Yesterday i made 2 honest mistakes, i didnt know til the very end. I was shotin the visor and had NO clue i was hit until i was hit in the arm and went off and took off my mask. The other one was when I got hit in the side of the mask(my mask is like really hard and i cant feel a thing) So i kept playing til the end of the game with a hit on my mask....like i said, we need more refs at this place. The games are like 45 v 45 on a 20 person field, cuz we had 171 ppl there..and they only have 2 fields and everyone always plays....

**Vegeta** · 01-13-2002, 10:36 AM

Some idiots I know play like that. Some of you might have heard me venting about them in the chat room. THey play like so: If your hit, your not out. They just keep shooting at each other till their hoppers run out or they get tired. Extremely stupid, and a waste of money.

**OhMyAMoose** · 01-13-2002, 10:48 AM

what I hate is when I dont mean to cheat but I guess I still do. Like if I run out and I get nailed right on the chest and I go behind a bunker to see if I am hit. I look down and the ball didnt break. So I check myself over and I dont see any breaks. So when the game is over I am walking off and the kid who shot me comes up and says I wiped it off. I am like no man it bounced. He looks and everything is cool. But when I am in the rest area I see that I was hit on my gun. Well on the bottom of my flatline tank. I never see those or hear them. So I am like, oops.

Mountaindud what field were you playing at? Challenge Park? I hear they are going downhill fast, garbage paint, under staffed and long waits to play their signature fields.
