Reducing cheating won't validate paintball as a sport. As far as I’m concerned wiping is to paintball as to what a foul is to football. Both players and spectators readily accept this as an occurrence; and in both games each is penalised accordingly.

Regardless of my opinion. Players not cheating isn’t enough of a requirement to validate something as a sport.
I couldn't disagree more. A foul in football is like excessive bonus balling. Cheating can seriously effect the way a game could pan out.

Although the below has nothing to do with paintball it has everything to do with this thread.

"Ole, to his credit, never rocked the boat when left out, putting the team's interests ahead of his own glories. That selflessness was never more apparent than against Newcastle towards the end of the 1997/98 season.

United left themselves susceptible to a counter attack in a must-win game. As Newcastle's Rob Lee bore down on goal Solskjaer, having tracked Lee's run for almost the entirety of the Old Trafford turf, brought his opponent down to receive an inevitable red card. Having saved his team from defeat, the striker received a standing ovation from the Old Trafford faithful."

you cant just say that no one can talk to the refs, what about paintchecks/ calls on players etc?

cookie hit the nail on the head really...get people that WILL not be intimidated by a player, no matter who he is or what team he plays for. Obviously you cant just bring in people with ASBO's that dont know anything about the game...

wud be funny tho eh?

Hi,

Given the new season is starting in a few months and there is talk of a combined rule book for all major leagues. So I thought this might be a good point to ask what people think is the best way to tackle cheating.
