Exclamation Getting hit is a bit scary. Should it be?

Hey, I got shot with a paintball a few times before and it stung, is this normal. Should I just over come it?

It'll sting a little. You won't care after a while playing though, and if you get hit during a game as opposed to just standing there and letting someone shoot you, it doesn't seem to feel as bad.

Simple as that.

Know harm will come to you. You will not die. You just keep on running .

I was scared the first time I got hit. Now I don't even think about it, it doesn't hurt.

I had the flag one time and the last person standing in a ctf match, but you brought the flag past the opponents team, I got shot soo many times I couldn't count.
But I've never complained. Sports aren't fun until someone gets hurt.

if it seems to hurt way too much, you may be getting shot with a hot marker.

Yeah, I've been shot with a hot marker before, those leave some nasty welts. Getting shot while not playing hurts more, just because you dont have any adrenline flowing. Getting shot in a game hurts alot less because your usually hyped

Hahaha this has to be the funniest legit thread i've seen on PBF yet!

Everyone is scared to get hit their first time, so no offence.

When you have so much adrenaline so you don't feel the hit, you know you're playing right. If you stay back and scare yourself then you will feel them more.

Do what I did... I just played around in heavy traffic... That way when a little paintball comes flyin' at me, it's no big deal.
