paintball scar?

[nfamouswun]

i was shot on my side on 12/26/05. Its 5/30/06. i still have a mark on my left side where i was hit.

is that normal? im almost positive someone was firing wayyyyy to hot that day. i was bunkered from 2ft earlier that day and didnt hurt. i was shot halfway across the field 3 times and it stung like hell, 1 of those shots being the mark i still have.

someone was kicked out from a random chrono, im guessing it was the guy who shot me.

i only bring it up because as i was getting ready to go out i saw it in the mirror. just wondered if anyone else had marks like this

Yep, got a nice crescent-moon scar on my knee from a bunkering some 4 years ago. Hey, it was 5 on 1, and I took 3 with me! It happens... not very often, but sometimes you'll get hit just right, and it'll leave something to tell stories about. :)

Wow!! Yeah, I had got shot on my left side/rib area and its still there... then my most recent playing, i got shot right next to that spot, and it's still there... Are those scars PERMANENT? And might it have something to do with where you get shot that determines whether it will leave a scar or not? Because I think it is pretty ironic that both me and nfamouswun got hit on the same spot basically and we both have scars.

No I have seen scars all over the body sometimes the veloicty spikes and if you get bunked it stays. I dont really think its bad though you will have storeies to tell about it.

yeah i got one on the right side of my neck!! it hurt like HECK for about 2-3 days untill it finally truned into a scar. and the worst part of it is that it looks like ringworm on my neck but then i just make up an action packed story about how i took out 7 guys on the other team all on my own and then one of them who was out decided to shoot me when the game was all over and thats the only reason that i had gotten shot..... lol its funny how many people you can get to believe stories like that... well what really happened was frendly fire... the guy in the next bunker was new to the game and when he moved up to the bunker next to me i guess that he diddnt see me when he got to his bunker at first... but then, he saw me and he freaked so he shot me and well the scar came a few days later. well i guess its not too bad.

so they arent going away then eh? i agree, its a story to tell but at the same time kinda sucks thats its permanent.

a year ago i got bunkered in the arm, and maybe i bruise easy or something but it made a ring of blood that bubbled up around the welt. When the blood went away there was a nice big white ring left and i still have it today.

Scars are VERY possible and DO happen.

A hot gun, nice bunkering, sensitive skin or any combination of those could leave a scarwelt.

I've had a few but after a year or so they usually go away.
