And then I look on their shoulder and they have given themselves a sergeant's rank. Or jump wings. I get the reenacting part of it all. It's when people actually think they are better than everyone else and try to use a fake rank to try to earn the same respect a real soldier deserves.

I know some of you guys disagree with me, and that's fine and dandy. It's still my pet peeve and that's what this thread is all about.

Nah I get it. My point was just, don't generalise. I've seen people without any patches/ranks acting like video games characters (not to name those stupid kids with 'Ghost' baclavas)

I have one of those 101st patch, and I never pretended having jumped out of an airplane.

Wearing rank, whatever.. it's a fantasy, Larpers wear elf ears.. it does not make them elves.. and I've never seen a real elf get pissed at a larper in elf ears.

Elves are way too cool for that.

Hahahaha. Awesome.

1) People who think they are the "Shit"

2) People who ruin the game amoeba by separating from there team intentionally only to come back 2-3 minutes later and light you up. This can occur multiple times during a game.

People who think they're entitled to something without taking the time to understand why they can't have it. Thats a big pet peeve of mine.

Im not the grammar police, but most people on here have a pet peeve towards people who dont take the time spell check their posts and use proper grammar and punctuation. People are less likley to think your 12 if you dont type like one.

If i can type it properly on my Blackberry then you can take the time to type it properly on your keyboard...

Pet Peeve #1: ASGI posting a video on youtube containing inaccurate and outdated "facts" about importing airsoft guns. That's on the same level as Jarek...

[airsoft_ninja]

my second biggest pet peev is people that flame on forums because they think there tough shit but in real life there over weight computer nerds that can hardly handle a pair a scissors let alone a toy gun...

In person, these people wouldn't have the guts to look you in the eye, but over a computer where there identity is masked by a fancy dancy cool sounding nick name, they think there a god.

People that has stupid names because they think that will help them get over the AV system or that it makes them experienced players right of the bat.

Like "OldAirsofter" or "AirsoftNinja".

Just stoopid.

There = referring to a place (i.e. "The hotdog stand is over there")
There = used with verb (is, am, are, was, were)...(i.e. There is a new model car out now")

Their = possessive...something belongs to them...(i.e. My kids spill their cereal every morning")

They're = contraction of "They" and "Are" (i.e. "If I don't learn propper grammar they're never going to let me into University")

Example...
Unless I work on my grammar, there's (contraction...usage with a verb "Is") no way they're (contraction...they are) going to let me pass the next grade in their (possessive) crummy school.
