Reason #1 why I don't get into paintball. Having someone shoot small hard objects at me at less than lethal speeds isn't something I care to experience.

That looks painful.

you know, child abuse is nothing to be ashamed of, if your father continues to put his cigars out on your arm, i will have to call family services.

I got hit in the knuckles once and it broke the skin. No pics though. I now wear my weight training gloves.

Was that at close range?
I remember being hit once in my neck and for some reason it knocked me to the ground, then the bastards kept on shooting at me while i was down!@#@!@

Is that all a paintball can do? You should've seen my back when a tree fell on me (drunken woodgathering for a large fire is fun. Unless you actually almost die in the process :p).

I had a friend get hit in the forhead, right above where the mask stops. It left a knot on his head about 1" round and 1.5" tall. It looked like a little horn growing out of his head. Oh, he was knocked out for about 10-15 seconds too.

A paintball isn't *that* powerful. Unless they're using a gun that's too fast (probably prohibited at the field) or freezing their paint (definitely prohibited).

It happens.. rarely, but people typically get banned from fields for stuff like that.

I was shot point blank with my friends gun turned to 3/4 max velocity and it only broke the skin of my backhand... someone did something wrong...

Use a gun that's too fast? For better accuracy.

Freeze their paint? Because people suck.
