Airsoft "Pet Peeves", time to vent guys!

Funny you should mention this... I play overseas and big games of 100+ people are going on all the time. But the thing that kills me is these guys talk, and talk, and talk.... then we play.... sort of.

Usually the head guy yaps his arse off to everyone about every possible detail or outcome, the list of rules as long as my leg for about an hour, THEN gives the individual teams their briefs....!!! And the thing is, its not all that complicated or indepth!

But hey, beggars cant be choosers so I keep my yap shut. ; )

To add to this.... I'd love a really hardcore MILSIM event. As close as possible to the real deal as feasible.
That being said, if you took a truly MILSIM scenario and broke it down, I think most (not all) Airsofters I've ever met would shy away from that. Most guys and gals out there don't think too much of spending hours on end up to there arm pits in stagnant swamp water just get the drop on the objective. Come to think of it, I don't either.... but I'd probably still do it ; )

Yeah, this would be really fun. Week-long games, all spent "downrange" in the field. It'd work better if everyone was 100% prepared and were airlifted into the AO.

people who dont call their hits in CQC... now that one is a pain.

Bandit50 · November 28th, 2009, 02:40

Gun Nuts thats say, if it was the realy gun it would have killed you... Wake up this is airsoft, eg a game :P

No evence to anyone here, nore is this targeted at anyone on this forum, I understand that bullets mostly fly strieght over 10 feet, but remeber all, this is a game and what the bb hits is what counts.

I also proudly ware red on fridays. Not because, I am want abee Private, because I currently have 2 freinds who are training to fight for what we call home, and I am damn well thankful for that, and anyone else who serves for are country..

Lack of trigger control!

That, or you're walking arms & gun up.
Bright red ribbon tied to the tip of your gun and you still get shot, and you call out "I'm dead!"
And they still keep shootin! lmao.

What is starting to really get to me is people not responding to PMs.

I can understand that people may be busy or are simply not on ASC that offten, but when I send someone a PM and get zero replies, yet see that the same person is online everyday and posting in multiple non-airsoft related topics, it really gets to me.

Bingo! This is a killer. In person, if someone asked you a question you wouldn't turn around and ignore them right? So why not take the 30 friggin seconds to write a proper response? Even if the answer is "no" to whatever the question was, so long as it's written properly and polite it's good to go.

At least no response is almost better than getting "hey illtak e da clip u hav 4 sale"

Do I really want to risk getting into a sales endeavour with a person who can't even take the time to spell? What if they take that half assed attitude towards packaging my stuff?

+1 to the PM issue. Currently I have 7 waiting PM's ranging from a month to 1 week.

I make an effort to reply with in 12 hours of a pm. Mainly when Im selling something or answering a question about an item.

What really bugs me is when Im willing to drop 1500+ on an individuals items and they are not interested enough to reply.:banghead:
