I Hate paintball now

I went paintballing for the first time this year, i've gone before but not this year. Anyway there were so many friggin cheaters. I have never seen it so bad and out of control. First off you have those speedball kids playing in the woods. Well they are "Too good" for common woodsballers so they will not go out with one break on them, they'll just wipe it, pretend not to notice it and say its from a previous game, or keep running and shooting people to get them out before exiting the field. They'd also sit there near the boundaries around the field and tell each other where everyones at if that cant see them when the "dead men dont talk" rule is in effect.

There was also a time when my teammate got shot and his older brother/dad just told him to wipe it off and keep playing so he did. I was ready to light both of them up even though they were on my own team.

Another thing that really ticked me off and I was ready to kill someone is a couple people on the other team when they were out would act like their leaving the field, raise their guns and everything then when they get behind your team they start playing again and shoot a ton of your players out.

After today I pretty much am ready to stop playing, it was friggin horrible. These stupid "non-legit" cheater players are ruining the game I loved.

What also really disappointed me is its at a field sponsored by tippmann :'(

Ahhh muffffffin!!

What ^he said but switch the "a little bit" with "a lot". 

That could be it... do you have a firepower upgrade?  Cause once you get one you might stop crying... come on you know it's an awesome sport/hobby/game/whatever it is, just go somewhere else and play!

Change fields. There is a field near me that I am positive all the newbs cheat. I know I can go to this other field and all the regulars won't cheat. It's mostly regulars anyways.

^Exactally. Dont get mad, get even.

I can imagine that it would be frustrating to have players wiping, and refs not noticing it ... the best I can say is ... well, what everybody else is saying. Keep hitting the turd until he calls himself out. Bunkered people generally don't wipe too ... not with several stinging messy hits on their back or rear.

Zero tolorence for cheats if ya lite up an ya try that ''wipe it off'' crap down these ways god help the poor sucka that get's busted..  But i must say We made that Law up for teams we play ,not for every tom dick and harry that wants to come and try paintball out for the 1st time although everyone is warned. trust me it may sound cruel but it really work's we dont see many if any cheats these days at all . the down side is i cant think of one

Also not legal and could get everyone arrested for assault and turn into a nasty lawsuit for the owner of the field, signed waivers or not. Court/lawyer fees would most certainly ruin the owner.

It's simple, ref catches you wipe your banned.

well the feild has been running for over6 years no problems so far everyone knows and abides by the code
But i do see the angle you coming from justicebut so far so good. banned just is'nt enuff besides that was a family game cuzzies'Vs cuzzies and the feild keep the code in place to make those who think about cheating think twice .

But al in all if ya can shoot em in the nuts then he will wanna leave the feild ,he'd have bigger worries than wiping it off unless they wearing a cup

Um, Don't play at fields where kids feel the need to be amazing?

Thats what I've always done. Renegade ball.

If everybody doesnt want to go out on the first hit , call a "Two hit elimination" where once a player is hit , he/she goes back to the start point for his team (or other agreed upon spot) , and has another go at it ! We do this commonly at the recball/renegade field I play at , and as long as everybody plays by the same rules , Its All Good !

Deliberate , consistent , and flagrant cheaters on the other hand , should be shown no mercy .

My .02C

dude u need an autococker... i just got one and it never seems to miss, i figure they can only wipe thier mask about twice before it is to smeared to see out of....  another thing myfriend  had the same problem, and decided to try to solve it using similar methods. he got a pistol with frozen balls. he was like"im doing them a favor, they dont need to wipe these balls" and i have never seen someone cheat at the feilds we paly at anymore... my friend did get in trouble for hte frozne balls(missed and shot a ref in neck, chekced the pistol n kicked out) so the lesson is, dont shoot the ref, ...lol i got off topic... i forget wha ti was saying
