True, the last local one I went to was in January. Perhaps I should rephrase that. No rules = arguments. I think we can agree on that. Even loosely defined rules are better than none. Leaving it up to "good judgement" isn't advisable in a game where you shoot at each other. There definitely needs to be an FPS limit, if not for safety's sake, then for the pure and simple fact that injuries = lawsuits. Personal injury and civil suits in general can ruin a person's life.
BTW, when I say "injury" I'm not referring to a welt or a blood blister. I'm talking more like BBs getting lodged in the skin, potentially damaging fingers, fingernails, teeth, ect.
