Andy i aint disputing that mate, and i aint lookin for an arguement. All i was talkin about was that when people go in for their bunka s that sum of them raise there hands, the Pro's do it for God Sake, why aint u slatin them? I never once said i wipe myself as part of my technique, that came from Rancid who nicely decided to twist my words around for me to look like the bad guy :(

I think you guys are missing the point. Mak aint admitting to cheating, hes saying thats why the majority of players do it.

I know a couple of the Clan and i know that they wouldnt allow cheating in any way so lay off...:cool:

1--you would raise your hand over ur mask. Now if a ball hits ur mask then that s it bam .......straight out the game, but if a ball breaks on ur hand all that s needed is to slide down on the floor and let the grass take it off ur glove. Not the most moral thing to do but that is the reason why it happens, and also there is more chance of a ball bouncin off ur hand than off ur mask ;)

2--should i get up?.......or keep playing? Now obviously wot game ur playin effects ur thinkin for example the finals in the World Cup, if i could get away with one wee sly wipe then .........
I was merely engaging in some subtle sarcasm but as you ask--

1--sounds to me like you've got the technique down (unless you're not using it palm out) and the rationale, as well.
2--could take that quote a couple of ways but Nudge clearly read it as more or less an admission and advocation of wiping as did Rancid, Duffistut and Piper.
If they all took it in a way you didn't mean ("this is a bad thing to do but here's how and why you do it") then others could just as easily and we all know how quickly rumor and innuendo spread amongst ballers--particularly when it's in black and white on a public forum.
So what will players think? If those guys figure that wiping is just part of theirs and everyone else's game we know what to expect from their teams, right? Instant bad rap.
Unless, of course, you're AfterShock or one of the handful of well known 'bad boys' in Paintball. Then, apparently, it's okay. [That would be more sarcasm, btw]

Piper I agree with what you say for the direct quote but Mac D does not say when. It could be the first day as a rec baller just to get five minutes in the game. And I think that happens alot. (We all see that as Rec marshalls)

From the sounds of it, it is not every day. I don't know Mac D or yourself and am just trying to play Devils advocate.

There have been times when you see a shot on a gas bottle or hopper that would disappear really quickly before any one notices that are tempting even for the fairest players.

I have to say in the tourney I pulled myself but the temptation was most definatly there, and temptation affects everyone differently.

Mother, is that you?

Hey, i didn't make you look like a bad guy - you did all that by yourself. I like the hostility bit as well - callin me stupid and wasting my time outing cheats. That's a corking character combination you've got there mate.

I think this is perhaps getting out of hand though. You know, if I were you now, I'd post summat on the lines of 'I did it once, I really regret it, I would never do it again (whether it's in the world cup or not) and I would beg my team not to boot me out'.

I think then that a nice mod may delete this thread and put your post down to a rush of blood. And then at least there's no worry about it appearing in the new P8forum section in pgi is there?

Rancid i appologise mate, as u said a rush of blood. I just don t want to be made out as a cheater, or blacken my teams name, because the people who kno The Clan will tell you we don t cheat and are a fair bunch of guys to play against.

Nick i didn t say thar Pro's wipe, i said Pro's put their hand in front of their masks, soz if it looked like that
