[QUOTE="Pbartender, post: 3402708, member: 7533"] I used to play a lot way back when in high school, but evetually quit because this same reason... ...all the little rich kids who shell out their parent's money for "heavy artillery" and fully automatic paint ball guns, while my friends and I were still toting around our precious pump-action Tracers. Though, my buddies and I did soup our Tracers up with sights, homemade rifled barrels, and higher powered springs... They made great long range sniper rifles. My buddy and I had a similar experience... Indoor paintball arena, and we'd been playing for some time so the concrete floor was really slick with paint. I'm crouched, kneeling, behind a barrier sniping at the other team, and picking off one by one through knotholes in the barriers and exposed heels and such. My buddy sneeks up around the other side of my barricade... Out of the corner of my eye I catch a bit of movement. There he comes, lying on his side, sliding along the floor in the paint, gun already at the ready. We both fire off snap-shots simultaneously. He nails just below the kneecap, and I peg him right between the eyes in the goggles. He can't see and I can't stand up. After we help each other off the field, we strip down to head home. I had not just a welt, but a bloody ring-shaped spot where his paintball had broken my skin and left a nifty little scar for several years. He had a pair of black eyes from his goggles that made him look like a raccoon. :D And then there was the time we were playing outdoor paintball against a bunch of rich kids who'd gone and bought a bunch of paint-grenades that they'd set up with trip wires as traps... So next time, we brought along a three-man water balloon sling shot, a pair of walkytalkies, a bunch of water balloon and a bucket of water-based paint -- and set up paint balloon artillery, complete with forward spotter. :] [/QUOTE]
