I've wanted to play paintball for the longest time, but every single sport that involves balls flying at me ends badly, weather it's baseball, soccer, paintball, or really anything else...I've even managed to be seriously injured bowling before (think a throw from someone else that went backwards and hit me in the kneecap) so yeah...I'm kinda terrified of paintball, because people are shooting at you on purpose, not by accident, and I don't wanna be hospitalized!
Played it a couple times and it's really fun. It did suck that I had a little welt on my leg for a while after I got shot, but it was worth it.
I've played a few times with Boy Scouts or with friends. I prefer airsoft to paintball in the summer but in the winter with thick jackets on paintball is pretty fun...as long as the paint balls aren't frozen.
I've been paintballing quite a few times. First few times were a bit eh cos we were all shit and had crap aim, but now that we are more experienced at it, it's a lot of fun.
Had 2 short seperate matches between friends. Much fun was had. Worst bit?(or IS it.......) I tried to flank the opposition while the rest of my team pinned them down. Sneaking amongst 2 hillocks then BLAM i get one on the side of my head. I think it was friendly....
I played a few times, i have never understood people when they say it hurts when you get hit, i never notice it.
I love paintball going september 11th a wierd day to go shoot each other. I love the pain aswel in it its such a rush cause its so unexpected.
I loved it, much better than laster tag 
I only played one real game at my friend's birthday party, and here's what happened;
The first game we had was essentially "capture the base" where the team wins if you get to the opponent's base. Keep in mind that I have never played a paintball game in my life, so I was pretty excited and scared since we weren't wearing any "protective gear" if ya know what I mean.
But essentially, I basically sprinted to the opponent's base and managed to shoot off 3 of them, including my friend since he was on the opposite team. I hid behind some cover, shot a guy, ran to a building corner where someone else was hiding out, shot him, ran for the base and shot my friend a little too close (he bled a bit, but tis okay) It was a huge blur, but I was screaming and hollering when I found out I got to the otherside unscathed (you're only out if the paintball splashes paint on you, not if you only got hit but it didn't explode)
Next game was capture the flag and we played with a bunch of other kids. Essentially, the flag was in the middle of the area and the team who got the flag to the opponent's room was the winner. So, again, I basically just ran for it, grabbed the flag, and made it to the opposing team's room.
I don't even know how I was rockin' so hard, but regardless it was a great experience and I got 3 bruisess on my stomache. Everyone was looking at me sort of angrilly, and I understand why, because I kicked theif friggin ass!
So, yeah, I would totaly go paintballing again.
