What would the sport of paintball be like without it? It makes games more good to watch, Cheaters make paintball more fun yes?

You're either Tommeh or someone pretending to be Tommeh?

It doesn't make games fun to watch it makes games slow, and outcomes of games are not as they should be.

Cheaters ain't fun, and especially not to play against, they only cheat because they don't have the skills to play fairly.

Some people say cheating's become part of the game, but that's like saying that because there's so much crime and drugs in Wolverhampton that it's become part of the accepted culture...

If there was no cheating in the game, there would be no need for this ramping thing that's been going on for ages.
The game would be a lot more fun without cheaters tbh.
Also people without skills blaming losing games on cheating opposition...wouldn't happen the people who deserve to win would win
I see a lot of angst at tourneys and it really makes some people angry, ruins their day, makes kids feel like they're sh!t players when in fact they might have shot someone out already.

Was watching a game on the NPPL live feed a player got shot and played out the entire game...that team won, it ain't fair.

But then again, cheating's like masturbating, everyone will say that they don't, but they do. Some are worse than others (at cheating) but everyone's done it at least once.

I can say hand on heart I did not cheat in any way shape or form at the last Masters, & it's nice to be able to say that, makes you feel good, if you cheat when you play just have a go at not...you'll feel better about yourself

and what satisfaction can you get from a win if it isn't honest

At the end of the day..

You play paintball for 2 reasons...

1:- Fun.

2:- Competative Sportsmanship

when someone deliberately and purposefully cheats it takes away the fun, especially if you then lose a game you should have won...

it might be nice for you to cheat Hoff and win a game, but if someone cheated against you Hoff and you unfairly lost, youd be up in arms...

Especially considdering you pay a lot of money, travel to a venue, and work damn hard to try and get top of your division only to have it snatched away by some n00b @$$ Wiper...

PS.. welcome back Tommeh...

Word!

I know people who cheat "it's only a hit if the marshall sees it" & these kinds of people are always the first to complain, nay throw a tantrum, if they think someone's wiped

Yeah, ive met ballers who seem to live by that philosophy...

Thats the one thing i h8 about tourneys... is that that is sometimes almost accepted as the way of things!!!

as much as i enjoy tourneys, Rec ball still holds a special place in my heart as there usually much more civilised and fair..

EDIT :- Tommeh.. do you suffer from split personalities??

Another thing, it pi$$es me off when players K N O W they're out, yet they get up & go on a run hoping no one will noticed.
Happened to a team at the Welsh open, I was watching a game, a guy from a fairly well established and well known Brit team :rolleyes: (not Nexus) got a hit on the chest & ran more than half the field to mug out 3 players :rolleyes:. What can we do? what can the marshalls do?
Nothing
& then after the game he just said he was hit from the run- no compensation to the team
Pictures on paintball kit prove it, pissed me off so much to watch that game...I will not name you dude but I was well annoyed.
