[rps13kid]

so yeah last night i was with my frien and my mom called me up and says "get home you car just got hit" i am like oh shi# so i go home and see that it got hit with 60 balls and 2 rocks were throwen at it and broke my back quarter window..there are not that many dents like only 2 or 3 from 60 balls so i got lucky on that.the funny thing is that 4 more people from my city got there cars paintballed too.. so yeah the people myst of wanted me pretty bad because the night b4 my house got paintballed and the next night my car got it..heh so yeah we have alot of people on the lookout for the people who are involved in this shi#..i just think it is prety pathetic that people go around doing this shi# to peoples cars..i mean would they want this shi# dont to them?

The paint washes off with water, doesn't it? The rock through the quarter window though, that sucks! My house got paintballed a couple years ago and I was too lazy to wash it off for months. The neighbors weren't too happy about that.

man that sucks, hope you find those bastards, glad my house is a bit more sheltered, gotta start using the garage more often.

i usualy do usually do use it but this happend at like 9:00pm and my car was on the street and i live on a pretty busy road so u dont realy think that this shi* would happen because there are always cars driving past..but my next door neibor seen the vehicle i guess so that is a start

a small speck of paint from a paintball got on my car; instead of smearing it around, I thought i'd leave it until I could get something decent to wipe it up with.

..which was too long a wait

It ate pretty well down.. well into the last layers of paint

Most paintballs are waterbased and just wash off. Others are designed to stain (so you can't cheat) but they are much more expensive.

Sucks to hear that...I dono why anybody would do that to someones car.

I mean, when I was younger I did stupid **** like that but we were smart enough to only do things that didn't cause damage...

[andrave]

if you freeze paintballs they can put hail sized dents in and break glass...
stupid friends of mine have done it to people they didn't like before.
I think even if you hate someone, cars are off limits.

Vengeance is yours!

I am going to start putting up a tarp around my covered park area just because of what you said. My wife tells me that when I am gone, guys are always stopping by my house or driving slowly, looking at my 240s. It gives her the creeps and makes me worried.

Um Dave, no paintball is made to stain. The paint is water soluable in a gelatin shell(thats why they expand when they get water on them). Paint is made thicker so it is hard to wipe during a game but no paint is made to stain but this doesnt mean it is more expensive. The more expensive paint has a more reliable bore size to match your marker (like .684, .682 etc etc). I played semi-pro paintball for about 3 years for Team 2-X out of paintball Atlanta, its some fun stuff. If no one here has played it, i recommend you should go out and try it.

acutally i really havn't seen .682 or .684 for that matter. Most rec paint are around .689ish. More brittle tourny class paint tend to be slightly smaller. Normally around .686 would be considered small. When using an open bolt marker, i prefer to oversize my barrels to prevent breakages, but when i'm using my Orracle which is closed bolt, paint to barrel match is crucial unless you like your paint rolling out of ur barrel when u tilt it down.

Burmonster: doing any PSP or NPPL events?

ZC, take a night off and do Vid cam...hide down with radio on for entertainment, low volume...cats come crusing, hit them with the lights and a step out.

I got a sign on my car...Continuously under video recording. Guess what, unless I am driving, it actually is. My work has it, I got it here. I really don't go anywhere else unless I am in view. It is not paranoia, it is common sense. Looky where I live. Doors open and unlocled each night. no one fuks with it. Last opossum that came up....Miss Maddie my dog barked and got me up to see.


How is school dude! What are you learning now...what part of your med studies?

[OldSklS13]

thats so lame...you should design a plan to catch the @ssholes that did it. Since they did it to your house twice i would set up a camera. catch them in the act then turn them in so they get what they deserve.

yeah, I have played in quite a few NPPL events (actual got to play team ironmen about a year ago, wasnt pretty) Havent played lately, I have been too busy with school and all. Like to get out everyonce in a while to mess around. The .684 is the Diablo paint i was sponsered with. I had a custom dye barrel on my lcd. That was the most accurate paint I have ever shot, but still not worth the 95 bucks a case you whould have to pay retail. I like free stuff :boink:

[rps13kid]

see the thing is ..yeah paint does comeoff but when your car is parked in the road and it is getting hit ap point blank range it will break stuff...like my tail light .and will cause alot fr fine dents...and some big ones .....
