The best & worst quotes you have heard.

Can't think of anymore quotes, but have had a few comedy conversations;

At The Mall they usually run a 4 and in re-spawn, meaning when you get to your teams spawn location you have to wait until there are 4 or more players, then you all re-spawn. Bear in mind you have the freedom to call yourself as hit at any point and there's unlimited lives and no scoring of hits taken.

I encountered a group of 4 people at my teams spawn point, 3 in a group standing one side the line, one standing on the other.

"Ahh that's 5 then, cheers for waiting (assumed they'd seen me jogging towards)"

"No we're not dead, we're waiting for enough people for our friend to respawn, need 2 more now! (cheerful optimism)"

"You know you can call yourself hit at any time right?"

"No we're not hit, just waiting for our friend"

(Another 2 corpses arrive)

"Fuckit, that's 4, game-on! See you guys at the zombie event! (chuckle)"

"Zombie event, when's that?"

"Erm depends on interest i guess, saturday nights i think"

"Do you get to shoot zombies?"

"Not sure, think so, a little bit, but might be using a blank gun, can't bring your own gun and run around screaming and spraying or anything"

(disapproving murmurs)

"Can always just find someone brain-dead to shoot today, usually some hanging round their spawn"

"Where's the enemy spawn?"

"Other end the main concourse"

(blank looks)

"Down that way until you get to the end"

I did actually check with the marshals that calling yourself hit to allow players to spawn was ok, and not borderline cheeky in any manner, they said it was perfectly acceptable of course! If you tried to just sit in the spawn and do this continually for the whole team they'd probably have a word, but that word would mostly be 'you know you paid to shoot and get shot at right?'

spotted this on the tippmann owners page on face book, from Aaron Landry :-

Best comment on the Tippmann from this weekend:

"That is the meanest motherf-ing gun to be on the receiving end of! All your BB's are saying 'fuk-you' on their way past my head!"

This coming from a player who has been airsofting for 7 years.

Hehehehehe grin emoticon
 
don't catergorically state that because it depends what country you're in.
Since when are paintball rules dictated by the country you're in?

You stated that you're categorically not allowed headshots in paintball. Tad simply said that's not true and that some sites allow it. Even if some countries don't allow it (and I'd be surprised if there was a law in any country saying headshots don't count as kills in paintball) that just proves Tad's point that some sites do allow it and some don't.

"If I dive on top of a grenade does it just kill me and not the entire room?"

Everyone in ear shot face palmed.

 
In one of those little gadget shops selling cheap 2tone Chinese knock off AEGs for £30 shortly after the VCRA came in.

"They are the same as those 200 quid ones but with coloured parts on because of the new law"

Think I nearly set myself, my brother in law bought 2!

 
Heard a lad chatting other day he said that the rifling at the end of the outer barrel is a real steal barrel.

Agreed. As annoying as refusing to moving up is, I feel its a part of the game and not something marshals should ever get involved in; leave it to the players.

While moving stealthily to outflank the enemy, and stopping to look ahead for potential targets a marshall appearing next to me and saying loudly "come on, push forward!". Got me lit up instantly. Nob.
Similar thing.

Milsim event. Our firegroup of 6 was ambushed and mostly taken out, except for our medic who was hiding in a ditch. The marshall points at him "There is one more". F*** ***

 
Real Sword (and now E&L) AK's are real steel guns fitted with airsoft internals...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! No they are f*cking not!
THIS IS SO IRONIC.

While i have been in the states for the past two weeks i legit had a shop employee try and sell me an E&L AK stating (get ready, i shit you not...) theyre made in russia along with the real steal ones but are fitted with airsoft internals instead. The temptation to pull out my iphone and show the obnoxious prick up was strong.

The thing is though I bet he's told loads of people the same BS and they've bought it just upon that one factor.

'Is that a US Cavalry uniform?'

'Hey you in the cowboy hat...'

The hours of research I put into getting everything correct, just to look like some guy in a cowboy hat!

I have Australia written on both shoulders, my buttons each have a map of Australia.

Then there's the Brodie helmet strapped to my backpack, the standard british/commonwealth helmet of WW2!

 
Definitely had "does that noob tube actually work?" and "where's the respawn on this map?", but I can't recall any other exact quotes right now.

The facepalm moment that sticks in my head was about 3 years back, playing at a paintball site that had recently switched to airsoft with no other airsoft sites nearby so literally everyone was new. When I pulled a couple of lipos out of my gun bag you'd think I'd just opened my jacket to show my chest strapped up with a ton of PE while at the same time sweating, praying under my breath and holding a battered old phone.

Only lipo I've ever had puff up was the one inside my PSP which I recently found when moving base and hadn't been touched for nearly 7 years. Even then all it did was expand very slightly, nothing more.
