NPPL banned orange stuff

right off the NPPL Rules Site.

NPPL RULES


August 20th - NPPL Rule Clarification:

Color Orange in Uniforms # 8-10-04
Rule 9.08 reads “Players’ uniforms may not contain orange or pink coloring, which are reserved as protected paint colorings".

The intent of the original rule was to include all equipment; however, the rule only stated uniform and the term “uniform” was not defined in the NPPL Rule Book.

The NPPL Rules Committee motioned to add the words “and equipment” to rule 9.08 to include all packs harness, pods, tubes, hats, padding, shoes and so on. After much debate, the rules committee decided to pass the rule with the following condition that orange markers would be allowed until 1-01-05 .

The rule 9.08 now reads “Players’ uniforms and equipment may not contain orange or pink coloring, which are reserved as protected paint colorings. (Exception orange markers will not be enforced under this rule until 1-01-05 ) ”

This rule change was passed on 8-18-04 . The rule will go into effect immediately and be enforced in the upcoming NPPL Las Vegas event.

i'm really startimg to hated NPPL

I don't really see why your are complaining. 1. I doubt any of you play in the NPPL and 2. The rule was meant to help players not hurt them.

They ban alot of stuff. But banning those kinds of uniforms will help determine a paintball hit. O well I still love the NPPL

its trying to make the game "fair" Pink paint sum times may stain, but i thought this was stupid cause anything will stain if you let it sit to longg, like more than a month in my experience. The colors thing will prevent The debate of hes hit, and ect.....personaly i understand, but i also understnad why ppl would be p-ed off
