Airsoft "Pet Peeves", time to vent guys!

[forsberg2110]

Milsims are just airsofters that think there in a real army. Either Milsims or Skirmishes your still pretending your in an army and playing with toys that shoot plastic. I hate people that take it so serious..If you want to do the real thing go join the real thing


Another pet peeve..people that spend tons of money on gear and try to buy the real thing when again there playing with toy guns

A lot of peeps on here are in the military or ex military. So I wouldn't be surprised if they have that military disciplined mindset when playing airsoft milsims.

Somebodies jealous.

Seriously though on a serious note. MILSIM is that MILITARY SIMULATION the goal is to make it feel like a real military training exercise. Skirms are a lighter more fast paced game mode similar to woodsball from paintball. Thats it. No whiney children just you whining because the big boys got better gear and you don't. Take it from a guy who is not in the army. Some people just want to have that military like eperience but are unwilling to possibly die or not see there families for along time. I am not those people I just applied for the CF... so I guess I'll (try) and do both the real thing and airsoft, gotta problem with that?

If all the milsim guys stopped showing up to the skirms, you'd have airsoft speedball.

That being said, there are people who are super uptight about milsim, but likewise there are super circlejerks at skirmishes. New players have to start somewhere, I grit my teeth and chose milsim.

Which is why I said "or deal"
The super milsim are a group. If that's what they want. Than stick with only milsim games. Otherwise you deal with weekend airsofters. I respect the military type. I'm military. But not everyone is milsim.

So deal with bad radio chatter. Or stay away from weekend airsofters

Thats why I mostly just use radio with my team. We got ninja focus. Objective mindset. ya know.

You think im jealous of people who waste there money on expensive gear to play with toy guns. Haha highly unlikely. Its airsoft why would i need high end gear..Its toy guns shooting plastic

Also 99.9% of milsims are no where near like real training scenarios.

* hands flame suit to forsberg*

best of luck

forsberg, stop while your ahead. This will only end with a lot of butt hurt for you.

And besides at least with airsoft kit you get some practical stuff like clothing, radios, packs, and gear to hold stuff in. It could be worse we could be golfing (nothing wrong with golf BTW) and spending thousands on some nice long pieces of metal. Golf can be considered a waste of money too. My uncle bought a 600 dollar driver last week, and those are only the mid range ones. Its just a piece of metal with a very specific purpose. Its fine to say YOU wouldn't spend hundreds of your hard earned cash on airsoft gear. Believe me I'm in the same boat. The only gear I own is a $30 tacvest. But don't shit on others because they get enjoyment out of their hobby.

Back on topic:

It annoys me when I'm forced to make an account just to see how much shipping will be. Don't retailers realize how much express checkout options are valued?

Going to a game that has Ammo for sale only to find out they only have 5 bags to sell to over 50 people.


Fuckin SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!

im not shitting on anyone i just dont like the people that take it so serious and get angry when someone says the wrong terminology or makes a mistake. These people spend tons of money on there gear and expect others to bow down to them because they have the top end crap

[Curo]

Those people go to milsims, so expect a certain degree of professionalism when they go to a milsim. Milsim's are not really for your weekend paintball place "I got tactical maraca's" kinda player.

When you can't find those damn CR123s

Dealextreme.com: Rechargeble CR123 and a charger for about 20$, never having to buy those damn hard to find and expensive cr123, priceless.

People who go to Milsim games and try to play like a skirmish.

Pet Peeve: When you buy something off the classifieds and it arrives dirty as fuck. Take the 5 min and brush off the dirt, and clean the glass (should it be an optic)
