airsoft and me

[IronFather]

hello airsoft guys and gals iam looking in to airsoft, now that being sed iam actuly a sanario paintballer who uses a stockclass phantom, and the reasons i would like to try airsoft is because iam sick of people just being ugly and dishonest on the field (getting bonus balled with 18 bps and haveing some kid wipe 6 or 7 times in a row issent cool) so iam looking for a better community overall i donno where to start there and theres realy no decated airsoft fields to be honest so this is out of Q/A for me right now i live in cambridge and iam not fond of flagraiders to be honest with ya, ive herd alot of ugly stores one in that cought my attion that had to do with a live flashbang and kid in a bus. and some personel stuff with there staffing (this issent a beat up on flagraiders thow) so overall iam looking for some direction. and some some feedback

nope i just do everything on my computer for the most part and will check asc every minute or so

currently watching batman begins and downloading the dark knight

plus for the last few days ive been deathly ill so i got nothin better to do lol

[IronFather]

to be honest guys iam in love with this rule

6) Drop the attitude.
There has been an unsettling trend as of late on ASC for members to feel the need to participate to only criticize other members spelling and punctuation.

Starting now we will be issuing warnings to those who feel the need to do this. If members wish to bother they should do it via pm and not muck up a thread.

PLEASE REPORT issue posts/threads: Turns out we mods don't read every post that everyone makes (although some people seem to think we do...). If people see an issue then REPORT it with the report function you will see at the bottom left side of a post. ( Red lined Triangle with exclamation point in the middle)

PLEASE report threads/posts you see that are questionable or blatant rule breaking ( In all forums ) as well as threads where the item has been sold/traded/etc.

on a side note this type of bs our govment realy truns me off form airsoft because even if i am a good owner and responable (witch i am) and if i get in a car accdent they still yank a easy 800$ gun hands down its stuff like that that realy truns me off to sports like these

Please, please, PLEASE tell me English is your second or third or tenth language. No offence man, but your posts are almost painful to read.

Ya, that rule may be in place, but that doesnt mean he can abuse the hell out of it!

Actually, he probably can.

But OTOH there isn't any rule that anyone is obligated to read and/or answer any post, which is where I'm at: I can barely make out half of what he wrote, my CrackerJax box didn't have a secret decoder ring, and I don't get paid enough to make the effort.

Just breezing through this thread I read it's 2nd post and I saw the correct grammar being used in the post, I could've sworn it was some mod revealing himself to be who he really was but then I realized at the end of the post that it was the same person from the first post - then I read the rest - ouch my head hurts!

[Demichev]

You are obviously way too young for airsoft.
Wait until you are 18, can't you read stickies?

[Shrike]

I don't think Joe at flag raiders allows "flashbang grenades" the incident you might be refering to was an AI Tornado Grenade in the bus.

[Auhydride]

What incident are you talking about? Link? I'm curious hehe

[Crunchmeister]

One word of advice IronFather...

Take a look around at other peoples' posts. Everyone posts in correct English with grammar, puctuation, etc around here. We have none of the "Internet kiddie speak" around here, and you'll find that some people will not put up with it whatsoever. So a word of advice, when in Rome, do as the Romans, so to speak.

There's nothing more annoying than reading a long, run-on sentence with no capitalization, punctuation, or grammar. If you intend on having people actually reply to you and take you seriously.

I can understand using interlingo when it's cutting down on key strokes and making typing quicker, but the idea/purpose of adding in extra letters and making a word longer for no reason escapes me.
