    Posted: 05 March 2006 at 5:19pm

I went to my car after finishing a game and I discovered my car had been vandalized by paintball guns.  Someone shot and dented it in all directions with 50-100 shots with red shelled, yellow filled balls.  Then removed the Honda logos, ripped the front plate off, kicked down the front bumper and pierced the front left tire.  Now for those of you thinking, "Wow MedievalMan, that sucks, how about calling the police."  Well I thought about that, but here is the problem.  Well, it was outlaw ball, so I was in a place I wasnt supposed to be.  But the car was parked at a near by bank (this was on a Sunday, so the bank was closed with no employees in there), and a friend told me that there is a chance that it could have been caught all on tape.  I do not know what to do, because all I could end up doing is just getting a fat fine on me instead of bringing these punks to justice.  What do you think?

-By the way, I dont even know which subject would this fall under in the forums!-

Why make a one shot kill? When you can just spray and take out the whole team?

I say call the cops, and say that you had drove there to check and see if the ATM or something was working, and then someone called and you couldn't get reception and so you had to walk like a block over.  Then, while you were answering your phone.  Just say you came back and then your car was messed up. 

Immediately after calling the cops, call the local news station and pitch the idea of the "Spyder Gang" where a bunch of ppl using spyders are attacking cars.

My mind at work. 

BTW: Outlaw Ball by a bank?  Where do you live?  BTW, unless you left the keys and you have like 20 pb guns in your car when the cops arrive, I doubt they'll fine you.

Not really...yes, but they'll also hate spyders :).  Do you think if he calls the cops and say his car got shotup by people with paintball guns that people won't hate pb even more?  If he gives them a name and an identity they'll be less likely to assume its all of pbers that do this.

lol, ya, there are a lot of Honda Haters.  Seriously tho, report that, its really easy to spot the punk kids that'd do that, becuase the people that do that almost always have criminal pasts.

Usual Suspects....

Just call the cops and be sure to take a LOT of pix.  The bank video camera may have caught it, but wether that would incriminate you might be questionable.  The one thing cops like to do is take cases like this and glorify them, because they're easy to catch if they do it alot.  Just tell the cops that someone shot your car up, and send 'em pix.

Well I appreciate all of your suggestions, but to let everyone know, answer this post in the Opinions section under the same title, where I think this subject better belongs in.  And maybe they are people who hate Tippmanns!  But I have already taken lots of pictures, and taken shell and paint samples.  Also I did not get into any arguements on the field with anyone, and I actually had a good time there before returning to my car.

How do I contact a moderator?

And no one looked suspicious, I tried that.  Everyone acted cool headed there.

Go to that thread, scroll all the way down to the last post.  That post is by a mod.  Look under the message and find the lil box that says PM.  Send him a message with the URL of this thread.
