Robin, these waivers arent worth thepaper theyre written on. In English Law you CANT waiver death or bodily injury... even if a client signs a waiver to say i accept any harm that happens to me is at my own risk etc etc he can STILL sue you as that wiver/disclaimer is NOT valid under English Law. Most sites issue them as the clients believe they are valid and dont pursue a law suit if they are injured.

This reminds me of a time I was testifying in front of a state congressional committe

Wisconsin State Representative: "Could you play paintball naked?"

Me: "If you were wearing a paintball mask, yes, but I wouldn't recommend it."

Actually happend. 50+ year old woman. Totally threw me off.

Also Robin did say the plan would be to chrono at around 250 fps IIRC....

Wonder what'd do the most damage 290 fps close shot in the back with 1 thin playing top or 250 fps on bare flesh.

Have to say though I'd rather keep my top on, and am sure you lot would as well.

Remember this
The Police can prosecute if they so wish.
If the willing victim needs hospital treatment, the hospital is obliged to contact the police. Because a marker is governed by the firearms regulations the police actually do not need a complainant.
Use of an offensive weapon to cause actual bodily harm is a jailable offense.
The chances of this happening may be remote, but the news coverage whilst the police investigate, will harm the sport immensely. Any site where this takes place is likely to be shut down, because thier site insurance will get redrawn as well as the bad press frightening away punters.

Like I said this may sound farfetched, but we are governed by the firearms regulations and we know what the public think of the gun culture. The papers would love a story like this and imagine what effect that would happen to site insurances around the country.

You would be surprised how much protection even the thinest of game shirts actually gives you.

Look, cos I get alot of these from my dad, like he thinks he invented everything and knows everything about everything....unless you are a designer for a company that makes protection in hockey, rugby, paintball or any contact sport then a statement like the one above is, for lack of a better word.........worthless.


Cos if you are then....
this bud's for you Mr.Sports wear protection designer guy. Your knowledge of all kit surpasses even the simplest of string vest designers. Your pading on those t-shirts is nothing short of shoddy. How cool do those ****ty retro flash logos' look that quite frankly, belong in the 70's. Then we thankyou one and all for giving us a safer t-shirt


ha ha ha ha ha ha
The guys at budwieser will love this.

Once again....
This bud's for you Mr.Solicitor of legal and pending procedures of paintball related injuries. Your ability to misinterpret and misconstrude the issue in the courthouse is, without a doubt, oscar worthy. Your grasp of the legal system can only be met with sentences like 'what legal system?' and you attire for court room battles can only be described as...' ****ty retro flash t-shirts that belong in the 70's'. So this bud's for you for making us all feel...a little safer.

What can I say!!

Use of an offensive weapon to cause actual bodily harm is a jailable offense.

This is true, but a paintball marker is not an offensive weapon if it used within the boundaries of the sport. Therefore, if you want to play butt-nekked, then that's entirely up to you and certainly not against the law! (Obviously, so long as you are on a paintball field and not just running down the street with nothing but a cocker and a large grin! )

i will allow players to wrap themselves in one layer of cling film

Scary thought

Anyone that has been to Campaign's 'Wurzel Bash' has seen some pretty bad outfits, but the school girl outfits a couple of years ago were good, considering I was the only female on my team and the guys had to wear skirts.....
