Unfortunately, I think the best we can do is limit the retards who like to overshoot. Limiting the speed of electros has been tried, but people find ways around it. Limiting it to semi only has been tried, with similar success.

Fields have to take the initiative to get rid of the people that like to light others up. This can be a difficult thing to do, but it's the only way I can see. I'm tired of going to big games/scenarios and having people hose at me or others until their hopper is empty, when they can clearly see the ball break, and know I was out within the first couple of shots. In an ideal world, these guys would be booted out if the refs caught them. The problem is, they're the field's primary source of income, not me playing stock class, or the renter spending more time in the dead zone than on the field shooting paint.

Limiting ROF would be great, but it's way too difficult to enforce. The best we can do is take our lumps, and laugh at the guy who lit you up when you get him with one $0.05 ball when it took him $20.00 worth to get you.
