I once had to drag a balling kid off the field. Got hit in the head a few times, but atleast he had brains enough to leave his mask on! The news tells me muders are up in the mid-west. I believe it to. I'd sure like to strangle people everyday. Leave your mask on, leave your mask on, why are you turning blue, leave your mask on...

Am I the only one that thinks that dropping the speed too much will only make it more likely for a ball to break and end up hurting that much more. If they are using a known quality, fragile paint, it could work wonderfully, but I can see someone dropping the speed too low using 3 year old brass eagle paint from walmart and dropping like a rock when it doesnt break.Comment

Eh, that seems a little excessive.
Just tell the guy his day is done. Honestly, if he can't breath with a mask on, he is either lieing or he has asthma. Either way, his day should be done.BrockSampson "I see dead people..."

Painball newbs are becoming more and more like pansies. What ever happend to the days of BB gun wars and the shotgun loaded with rock salt? I tell yeah. The whole world and not just the paintball world is becoming weak. It would be a better place if there was less sensitivity and more butt kicking.Comment

i think what happened was he got beaned in the chest a couple of times, and then thought he was having a heart attack or something. to be honest, i think he was one of those kids who grew up with all sorts of medical issues. you know the kind, always with their allergy medication and/or inhalers.

Kids
Whenever i ref there is always someone who will lift or take off there mask even tho we have a safety breafing in the morning where the head ref stresses the need to keep it on, first time is a warning (unless mask is completely taken off) then after that they sit out and one more time they are ejected from the feild,.. the kids that play there are usaully pretty good about leaving there masks on and so on the off chance you eject one from the field ther rest become litle angels becuase they now know your not kidding...explaining things to kids doesnt do much, they dont listen and so if one gives you the necesary reason to take action, make him an example................And as for either of you thinking your tough :)
Look me up....anyone for a game of ironman

I suggest those of you who think this is not at all serious look at ventricular fibrillation and how it relates to young adults in sports. Granted most of the time its related to baseball type injuries but I suggest we not take this too lightly in paintball either. Do I think it might ever occur? I think the risk is extremely minimal and within acceptable ranges. That being said whenever I see someone hit in the chest behaving "wrongly" it concerns me."Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. Its not" - Dr SuessComment

Mebbe youingsters should be required to wear chest shell armor. Have a bunch of batman look-alikes running around the field.Originally posted by Lohman446I suggest those of you who think this is not at all serious look at ventricular fibrillation and how it results to young adults in sports.
