For me its stupid prices, shitty refs and 3ft deep swaps for playing areas.

assholes

The ultimate truth in paintball is that the interaction between the gun and the player is far and away the largest factor in accuracy, consistency, and reliability.

Long walks, and field-only paint with insanely marked up prices(I could get great paint at my local shop for $40, but nah... you gotta pay $80 a case to play here). Sadly every field around here suffers from one of them

poor quality reffing, and poorly maintained fields. are probably my big two as far as what ruins a field.

people that get too mad too quickly, and the FPO stuff... I get it, they need to sell paint to stay in business, I KNOW that. But if i have 2 cases of my own stuff, please just charge me a fee to use it like alot of fields are doing now, i mean i get to shoot paint that i want AND they get to keep their product to sell to another customer and are still getting paid for it (WIN/WIN)

My field is FPO because of environmental restrictions. We have to report exactly what's in the paint that is being used at our field, and we can't allow outside paint if we're to keep the permit for the field.

Yeah,having FPO and evil at $70 a case is one of the reasons I play pump,but I believe it is really shitty is some places up in Canuck land.Also,shitty refs that don't give a fuck about what they're doing.

What kills it for me is long wait times between games when the ref's are just talking insted of planning out the rest of the games.

I dont like FPO, and luckily 2 fields close to me are BYOP.

I am qmto on youtube, i make funny videos because i love you all.

1. Insane paint prices. At CPX for example it is $90 a case. It is good paint but id rather pay less for a paint that isn't as good.

2. Lazy refs who just talk and refs who make really unfair teams.

3. Long walks to fields

4. Players who get mad too easily. (I got shot on my hip where my phone was one time and the paint broke. Since my phone took the impact i didn't feel a thing and when i was getting off the field the player who shot me, who also happened to be a ref who wasn't working, went on a 5 minute speech filled with swears and all other types of stuff directed at me)

I agree. People with bad attitudes suck when you play a sport where you have to shoot at them. I nearly got in a fist fight with some jerk after I shot him out cause he was trying to rush us.

Wipers, people ramping all day, shit paint, and lack of people.

No joke, I gogged a guy and he wiped the hit off of his mask lens. After the game he seriously tried to convince me that he thought he didn't do anything wrong because, "he thought it didn't count because he couldn't see so he wiped it so he could see". Fuck that guy.
