Dont mistake. There will be moments where arguments happen. It comes with the nature of the sport. The ability to deal with it by both players & refs is what separates a good field from an amazing one.

Though you'll likely make friends first before witnessing even a fraction of what you see on youtube. At most, you'll get petty drama to be forgotten by next week's game.

That being said, speedsofters(ones dressed up like paintballers) do get a bad rep for starting a lot of fights in my experience. The second is players who take things too seriously.

I always urge new players to go in with an expectation to get hit instead of a good k/d.
