Why they don't wear masks on TV

[Lavahead]

I seem to find a whole lot of screaming about actors not wearing masks when they use paintball guns on TV or in movies. Yes, this presents the sport in a somewhat bad light. But has anyone actually stopped to think about why these folks don't wear masks? Hmm? Well, here it is, so you can all stop complaining so much.

They don't wear masks so that the viewers can see who is who.

Now I'm sure I'm going to get some post about how I "don't really care about paintball" blah, blah, blah, before this thread gets closed (because I'm sure there are others out there, I just can't find them). Think what you want, I don't care. I just had to get that out. Maybe other people will also realize this and start coming up with solutions, like distinct colors or jerseys with names on them or something, instead of just complaining.

The don't wear masks on TV, BECAUSE IT'S TV.

People dodge bullets on TV for christ's sake.

It's because they are too stupid and don't know enough about the sport to potray it corectly. Thats the main reason people get pissed.

People that do these shows are stupid

I'm not posting this to hear about people who don't agree and say "blah blah blah blah" I'm posting this to just get it off my chest so that maybe some smart people who make the shows will understand the true way to potray paintball.

and it also holds true to alot of other sports and things. alot of these directors and actors dont know jack s**t about what they are doing all they know is to do what the script says.
