i have played 8 times in total all at delta force kegworth and i have no marker of my own i have only just started buying my own stuff but i all ready have some battle scars
(well not really but still)
first injury was when i was running to a hut i stood on a small tree stump whilst sprinting and nearly fell over it hurt like hell but i limped my way there and helped keep the huts secure after we won that game we had a break and i kept playing the rest of the day though i probably shouldn't have i was fine when i whent back home but the next day when i woke up in bed it was like my foot was being hit by a hammer every time something so much as touched it i couldn't walk for a week and had to hop around
next time i was sprinting though the woods trying to outflank them on the left i once again stood on a small tree stump fell forward and i was still holding the marker in my right hand the marker hit into a tree and the trigger guard somehow ripped of quite a bit of the skin on my trigger finger and i dont mean just a top small layer i mean i small bleeding alout and my skin was hanging of i swore up a storm
the marshals came over they asked me if i wanted to leave and i decided not to i kept playing shooting left handed but made sure not to get close to the ground as to not infect the wound i took out one player but someone managed to shoot me in the ass when i was using a tree for cover and i left i whent to the dead zone and everyone was grossed the hell out over the it and eventually we whent back to the safe zone
the site manager found out about it and asked me to once again sign a forum about health and safety though it wasn't easy i never write with my left hand i then washed it of and we put some anti bacterial stuff on it and a plaster though i had to put it on for liability reasons just encase i was allergic the site manager then said that he rearly dosent want me to keep playing and that i should go the the hospital now i dident want to but agreed with him but on one condition all the paint i brought and haven't used i want back next time i played
whent to the hospital and they patches it up and put some paper stitches on it 2 days later i re dressed the wound then i noticed my finger was starting to lose feeling and a few days later i checked the wound and it was revolting i thought i might lose my finger it whent black white and yellowish with a bit of pink wet looking flesh next day i whent to the local doctors surgery and they said it wasn't infected and thats what large wounds normally look like when they start to heal and then they re dressed it and asked me to take it of in 2 to 3 days to let it heal
i did and it took a week or two but now its fully healed and you wouldn't know anything had happened to it if you just looked lol but now when i go to the same paintball center a Marshall always seams to bring it up
i all so have some lesser ones i have been shot in the nuts quite a few times and the neck as well last time i whent paintballing i took out all but one of the enemy players and we kind of had a dog fight around this building until eventually i shot him in the neck the Marshall called him out and i thought the game was over ran over to get the objective and i then got shot in the nuts 3 times from about 5 to 7 feet away turns out the Marshall then said oh wait never mind neck shots don't count keep playing
oh and allso im kinda new here i wold love if people can give me some advice for instance where do i go on here to find a local team or chat with people that live nearby i rearly would love to go paintball with people i know rather than strangers
