Had a bad day paintballing?

Was your mask all fogging up? Was your marker not shooting straight?

There are common problems in paintball that happen and then there are things that happen due to lack of effort on a paintball sites part. Have a read of the article to be enlightened before you decide that you are turned off paintball for good:

My first time paintballing was my last and my mask didnt even fog up and it was well enough run too. I just didnt enjoy the experience at all. Bullets coming out of nowhere and hurt like hell. Even when i binked a few from distance i didnt get any joy from it because they didnt know it was me who got them. I wanted the credit but it went unnoticed as they just scurried away and my victory went unheralded. I was left very unsatisfied.
The buying of bullets was a bit of a racket too as i remember but that was a good few years back now.

Where did you play rounders ?

Depends on the site you go to, some marshels are better than other to be honest, i hate it when people dont go out. As far as buying more paint its really the source of revenue for paintball sites so the price is pretty standard. I would always recommend discussing a bulk buy from a site before commiting

i did enjoy paintball when i went but there was a few things that i didnt like such as my gun went crazy and it didnt stop firing so all my painballs were destroyed and i got no paintballs to replace them even though it was the guns fault which was owned by the sight and the games were to short and the breaks were to long and all the games are designed so you use alot of paint balls

Thats generally the idea behind paintball when you use alot of balls. Its how sites make their money really.

Can i ask which site you played it ?, its bad form when the gun would do that and waste your paid ammo. Maybe get onto the website you booked it with and mail them about the experience. You never know if you go again they may look after you on it.

Some sites would look after their guns better than most, and also how the paint is stored is a huge factor...

My cousin had a bad experience once he shat himself in Limerick when he thought the paintball made him bleed.

He must have been really unlucky there, I once got shot in my head but thanks to the epic head protection mask :cool:
