And really, it does all come down to who's pulling the trigger. Be it a sniper rifle, AEG or LMG, it's all about the shooter. I'd be personally far more worried with a noob firing an AEG at 350 fps than an experienced sniper shooting 450+ fps. Yes, I MIGHT get hit in the head / face / neck by the sniper, but more than likely, he's making every effort to hit my centre of mass and not my head.

Yes, accidents will happen. Our BBs are affected by the smallest things like wind, a leaf, twig, etc. And a BB will go off course, regardless of the gun being shot. We all need to accept that risk when we step out onto the field. We already have our informal rules about who is and isn't allowed to snipe. We have a small enough community that people get known really quickly, and if someone is a problem player, be it sniper or otherwise, matters will be taken care of. IMO, that's more than adequate. There's no need to regulate the shit out of what we do.
