   For anyone who visits here and wonders why saying "Spec Ops" seems to instantly destroy their credibility.  I had the following conversation on their forum a while back:

Wow, calling paintball a "war" and peeing in place. It's a game,
nothing of true value is on the line. This is the kind of stuff that
makes paintball snipers fodder for amusement among the larger woodsball
player community.

Excuse me for that. But where I come from we call all paintball games
or whatever wars. It is hard for me to call it anything else. We play
it like it is a war because we are a mil-sim woodsball group. I
personally play it like it is a war because I will be in the Marines in
a year, therefore, if I get shot it makes me pull my head out real fast
because then I see that I could have died in real life in that
situation. If you play with this mindset it makes you a much better
player. Now, I am not advocating in any way shooting at someone else
with real guns, actual hand to hand combat, or misuse of guns, this is
a game play style I utilize. 

This is a definition of war in Merriam Webster dictionary.
 War- a struggle or competition between opposing forces or for a particular end

I took two main ideas away from this conversation, both of which I find amusing:

Paintball = USMC at war
The Dictionary-it's not just for sniper definitions anymore.
