That's all I will list for now.

[PMI_Guy]

this kid at my feild with a C&C angel wiht a freak and angel Air. and his brother with a Dye Autococker with a freak and 114ci nitro tank. but my gun is quieter than his :crazy: :crazy:

[Gibralter]

Wipers

People who bum off stuff

People on your team who shoot you

People who want to fire a semi-auto, then burn through like 20 shots like no buddies business.

[133+ Player]

Being hit in a game that just started by a newb with an angel who was blind firing

People Flaming Spyders

Auto Cockers Flaming Spyders

Angels flamin Spyders

ect ect

[xXhappyAznXx]

people who brag about their guns
people who say im gonna beat that guys ***** in paintball
people who overshoot
you get my point

***** holes

[anchorite]

1. bolt stick

2. blaze paint

3. NOT GETTING FULL 4500 PSI FILLS ANYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4. sliding into a bunker, and knocking it over. (happens to me quite a lot. and not just in airball.

[AK47]

Rich babies
overshooters,
cost of field paint,
crappy CO2
Thats all I can think of right now.

[davkad]

wipers
being shot after you called your self out
high field paint prices
leaks
when the local shop doesn't have simple parts to fix your gun (like a cupseal)
fields that fill tanks to 1000 psi (hehehe derek)
being shot in the face under the mask
welts generally (not too bad anymore)
pre-judging newbies or experience players.

[green_kat]

fogged goggles
scratched rental goggles
getting 20 shots to the the back
that tiny leak in your gun that is absoluetely un-findable.

[i like tictacs]

having something fo wrong with your gun and not being able to find out what it is.

getting bunkered hile reloading.

getting shot at by noobs when u go to make them surrender. (ten foot rule at one of the fields i go to) yeah, they freak, and since they are so low u end up getting nutted half the time.

kids who think paintball grenades own

[TheNinja]

people who start threads that are already on other sites...
j/k

People who go ballistic when you hit them and try to pick a fight with you

People who make fun of my piranha. :(

People who act like they know stuff about markers when they know nothing at all. Like talking about my friends cocker sayin its a mag and pretending to know how it works. :eyes:

People who hit on my girlfriend! :pissed:

[i like tictacs]

the ninja that was teh whole point..... it was a good idea at pbn




anyway, people who call nitro "nitrous" and they call paintball "bullets"

[Crash Danger]

O-Rings

People who diss the Rebel ;)

Hoppers

Not being able to fire your gun sideways or upside down

Loose elbows

Teammates that don't listen to you :sleep:

Newbies who buy an autococker or up as their first gun


P.S.

My friend ALWAYS calls Nitrogen NITROUS! I correct him all the time but he keeps on calling it that. :crazy: Where do you get the word nitrous from anyway? It's nitrogen. :confused:

Plus most of the time you simply use a combination of compressed air not just nitrogen...

[jaredu]

This is just me, but the word GUN!!! :| It just makes me wanna hit them.....I'm strange.....

Little momma's boy who shows up with an angel.
(Only to leave with about 60 shots from a rebel...HEHE)

[Slug]

Technologically challeneged pro shops (why the hell are they call proshops)

Field paintcosts and then finding out the field paint is BE (by the smell)



People who think their spyders are better than Angels Timmys Shockers...ect

i'm not mocking out spyders i'm just saying you get what you pay for. Spyders are good guns especially when upgraded it is just that people with angels spent more for a reason.


People who diss spyders because they spent more.

[Gibralter]

FPO fields that use field paint that is exactly the same as the non-feild paint, but if you buy the paint in the proshop it is non-field paint, but if you walk 10 steps to the counter, it is field paint, and $90 more per case.

[WVprankster]

Field paint prices

people who complain about someone else's gun shooting too many bps

thorn bushed on woods fields

various animals' droppings on outdoor fields

field owners who think that gravel will make a good indoor surface to play on

[xXhappyAznXx]

when your balls itch and you cant do anything about it
or when your balls get bashed by a ball flying at 300 fps

[Delutignot]

I guess it's one or the other eh? You take a little you gotta give a little...


as much as I'd hate to repeat.. I'd have to go with the little rich kids with the crazy setups.... especially the ones who brag about how good their gun (and by their logic, how good themselves) is. Aside from that..

I hate the fact that I don't know cockers... they're amazing but I know nothing about them. Hopefully I'll change that :D

[UTLadiesMan]

Getting nailed in the back 3 times less than 2 seconds after the start of the game while you're still getting to your first bunker, then no one ever apologizes to you or even acknowledges they shot their own teammate.

Getting shot while in the dead box.

Getting shot while in the dead box 4 seperate times in 1 game, and several times while you aren't even in anyone's shooting path.

Trying to get a 4500 fill somewhere only to find out they only fill to 3k, and they don't even have enough for that so get like 2500.

When it's later in the game and it's 20 on 5, and your "back" players are still in their first bunkers and can not even possibly hit an opponent so someone tells them to move up, and they go up like 10 feet to the next bunker and are still out of long ball range.

People shooting out of cracks in the bunker, then bragging because they got you while you were within 15 feet and trying to bunker them.



Ok, that about does me for now. Wow, it sure feels good to vent. :)

[Solo]

1. poor sportsmanship

2. getting hit 1.5 seconds after the break

3. $25 field entrance prices

4. paying any money at all for dimpled, lumpy house paint

5. people shooting all over the place for 10 minutes before the game actually starts

I don't really care about people bragging about their skills, paintball markers, equipment, etc., blah blah, let 'em talk.

Solo

[Taste_Me]

My pet peeves:


:pissed: People on the other teem who for get to chrono and shoot like 350fps

:pissed: People o my team who forget to chrono and shoot like 150fps


:pissed: People who think that they can take on the other team by them-self


:pissed: People who don't do their job on the field (i.e. person A is suppose to cover you but decides that he dose not feel like it)

[chf roberts]

the thing i hate most is people dissin the shocker cuz they think it i heavy and ugly

that just gets on my nerves
i also dnt like people who complain about electro markers cuz they sa they dnt have a "real" trigger:pissed:

[ry_goody]

This little tiny scratch in the middle of my goggle's lens... even though I cant even see it when I put them on, just knowing it is there really drives me nuts.

Going to a field where you have to buy field paint, buying field paint at full price and then having it be old with soft spots and shoot horribly.

[blinkpk11]

cheating
anyone who says im better than you just based on their opponents marker. settle it on the field!

[-RuShPB227-]

Wipers
Little Kids that get me out
Little kids that whine
People that aim to high and longball over the netting.

[simon woodstock]

people who frown upon other with high-end equipment
bad paint-barrel match
not being able to find a twist tie
ball breaks
batteries dieing
black shoes/gloves/hoppers/ etc that go into their bunker white then come out black again (repeat process 5 times until i bunker them)
old guys with rentals who throw fits when a highly skilled pre-teen clearly out-plays them.

[ds613]

Teammates who don't communicate on the field.
Teammates who won't move up.
People who compare everything to an angel.

lol

When people say great things about a gun at one store... and then at another store they trash it. I guess that's to be expected though :rolleyes:

[2k1AngelShooter]

First major agreement on the Little tiny leak that drives you crazy.

1: RAIN
2:SNOW/HAIL/SLEET (Supposed to play tomorrow but it's raining...)
3: Whinners
4: Guy who I always loan my back up defiant to but I always replace what he breaks (no more)
5: Bunkers that are to small or get knocked over
6: GF who shoots me in the a** 30 seconds into first game (cept she WAS on the other team...I screwed up)

[Telefragged]

-Baised players (like/don't like because of equipment, etc)

- Perfrorming brilliant maneuvers, only to discover your targets have moved

There's all of it for now, but I'm sure I could think up something else to complain about. Ack, its all in good fun and I love pball!

[Telefragged]

Especially those who rag on other player's markers/equipment/tactics, etc, I hate those people, I'll let my paint do the talking though...

[i like tictacs]

-"I'll stay back and snipe"


lmao

[Super 3]

The one dude yelling orders to everyone else when he has no idea what he's talking about.

The kid who asks, "Do you have any extra paint I could have?"

[2k1AngelShooter]

When you da** near have to shoot someone on your team to get their attention that you ARE YELLING AT THEM TO MOVE!

[Taste_Me]

:pissed: :pissed:
Everyone on pbreview.com that posts a marker i the review section as a perfect 10 even though they list bad qualities. NO FREAKING GUN IS PERFECT!!!! I never want to see another 10 rating again god damnit, especially on a freaking Shutter. Don't get me wrong I got one and I love it but i would probably rate it as a 7 or 8 because it definitely isn't any Autococker!!!
:pissed: :pissed:

[2k1AngelShooter]

There needs to be a 9._ system. I would have rated my angel at like 9.5 or 9.75 but I couldn't. Agreed, flashes aren't 10's EXCEPT for what they offer for their price range. Thats the problem, a Boomstick is like a 10 of normal barrels but is only a 8 in comparison to a freak system...the system needs work.

[FormalTrout]

Tasty.. try and relax, 6 deep breaths, everybody thinks their gun is the best, dont forget a review is only an opinion. I agree with you NO gun is a perfect 10, I too have a spyder and have had some problems all in all a great gun!

My pet peeves are as follows:
1. Grown men without jobs that cant afford a decent gun.
2. Frozen paintballs.
3. The dog next door that someone painted:badboy:
4. Tree huggers
5. Ex-wifes

[Moose]

kids calling your position on the sideline sucks major wang

[Vaypourus]

Okay...my pet peeves...

-The 7 year old that thinks my mag is an angel, and follows me around like he has lost his mother (hey Red..."is that an angel?"...lol)
-The kid with the tippmann and the 20" Taso Stonecold that thinks my mag is bulky.
-People that hide behind me when I am laying down the law.
-People who fire 40 rounds into the wall before the game has started.
-People that shoot 50 rounds on the crony machine while 20 people wait in line behind him.
-The kid that asked to look at my mag a dropped it!!!!:pissed: :pissed: :pissed: :pissed: :pissed:
-Teammates that won't move up or cover you when you are making a dash to the front.
-Paint that hits the wall right behind you and covers you in a mist of paint.
-Teammates that use your paint, then accuse you of stealing their paint.
-The 7 year old that now thinks my mag is a cocker, and ask if he can use it next game. He is still following me around.
-The kid next to me that puts his barrel into the bucket of cleaning water, and does a dry fire to clean his porting out, but fails to realize how much water will actually fly out of the bucket.

Oh man..I could really go with this post....I need a drink
