What do you call it when you hit someone with a paintball

[Rascal_X5]

There seems to be some uneeded tension in paintball, I see people flaming others for calling hitting a person a kill, or whatever there choice is. This is truly unecessary, as paintball players we shoulnd't get mad over little things such as this. Here is a poll to see what's popular

i just say a hit, or i shot this guy.

Im going to start using the word 'elimination' because I like it. :)
But I usually just say "I got him and him"
actually I usually end up saying
"I didn't get any of them, how many did you get"

Actually, it is my belief that we should be furious if a hit is deemed a kill. Imagine what moms think when someone says, "Oh yeah, I killed that dude to," As opposed to "Yeah, I eliminated that dude to." Do you see where I'm coming from? We all take the word kill for granted, but the outsiders are after us, we need to be as careful as possible with our sport.

yeah, if your talking about paintball at school and your like, yeah i killed like 4 people yesterday and a teachers hears you are SCREWED!!

I personally use elimination, because I believe kill is to forcefull of a word. I didn't see it from that perspective.

Thanks Richy_C

I call it something like a "hit" or a "taken out" as long as the message is out.
