i played today at splatter park, it is located outside columbus. a player had been lit up (i did not shoot him) and i was standing on top of a mound, as he was walking to the dead box he shot me from about 10 feet. as the game was ending i confronted him and he brushed me off. if i did not have respect for the sport and the example set for the younger players i would have kicked his ass and been done with it. my only other option would have been to "narc" on a 40 year old man. i dont know, i just think there is no room for people who act like that in the sport of paintball. what does every one think?

Wow dude... You use less punctuation then me... See I do this "..." a lot. and when he shot you, you should have turned and unloaded on his ass.

P.S. you can say ass here... you don't have to say A$$

that's too bad, dude.  people like that don't need to be around the sport.  people get lit up, it's part of the game whether intentional or not intentional.

(I was kidding, I do that a lot.) But I agree with what you did there, you showed self control there, and for that, I have respect for you.

fighting for anything other than entertainment (both/all parties aggree) or selfdefense are just stupid.

lighting him up would have also been stupid.

if it was over shooting on him then he should have gone and talked to a ref. when he shot you, you should have gone and talked to a ref.

people who get a temper and break the rules dont belong around paintball. it creates a safety hazard.

There will be jerks that participate in every activity. You just have to be tolerant. There really isn't a whole lot you can do to make it better, only make it worse. Maybe they'll grow up some day...
