For real Elitism and snobbery, join an Archery Club. There are people in there that won't talk to each other because they use a slightly different bow string!

Aww mate I know try Mountain biking.
When I first got into it you could go out on a halfords special wearing overalls & two oven gloves & no one would bat an eye lid, Nowadays the X5 bunch have appeared. now it's gone like skiiing, blokes with mirrored glasses clad in Kevlar posing at trail centres.......a bunch of tossers. I love going on my 6 year old hard tail & kick their arse because they have all the gear & no idea.
It really gets on my nerves.

If it helps I was a massive gear snob on my mountain bike back when whippy seat posts and shaving half a gramme off the weight of your cranks was de rigeur. Mind you, I've never owned an X5...

Well I seem to be going through a period of falling off lots, I think gravity has become my arch nemesis lol
Of course these days it's me not the bike that has "downhill specific geometry"!

Thought id start this fire once again.
I play at xsite alot, amazing site and great staff. However my heart broke when I found this.
Not taking hits, silly hand gestures, constant showing off in front of the camera, blind firing. Urgh
This is also one of the reasons I will never buy an AEP

Also, why is he only using a pistol? It's a cyma or double eagle. Worst brands (apart from cyma, they make good ak's)

Also, that isn't blow back. That's just the slide moving back a centimeter

Personally, I ain't got no issues with codsofters at all. Ok so they're weapons look aweful and sometimes they don't really know the rules BUT we all started somewhere.
That aside a lot of the time I admire they're attitude. They have that raw niavity which guarantees that they will enjoy they're day no matter what. A lot of the time where I play it's them who do a lot of the running around and break up any stalemates. On the subject of running, on average they are a lot lot fitter than most of us and this is they're greatest advantage. While we are sat at desks Monday to Friday, these guys play football in the school playground. They also weigh up to 3 times less than us and have not had 2 decades worth of fry up/cigarettes/Booz. The end result is most of them can run the pants off us. Call me a fool but surely a kid with a rental is more deadly than a fat bastard with a systema???
Last year my team picked up 4th of 12 teams at the annual billericay woodland competition. My team were absolutely nakered by the end few games but the kids were running around like we had just started. They actually won the entire tournament with an average age of about 11-12.
I'd be worried if these guys started taking it seriously as the rest of us would struggle to keep up with these light feet fairies lol
Hope more of em join the game overall

I don't mind codsofters in the sense that they're having fun. I mind them when they are breaking the rules and just being a pain in the bottom .

Everybody was a beginner once. We went into our first skirmishes utilising what we knew, right or wrong. Those that became good would have learnt from mistakes and from others, gained experience, and stopped doing stupid things. Others would just keep on doing the wrong things, and be completely oblivious.
With young kids, although they are inexperience, it's always nice to see that they are having a good time.
Once at a CQB site, a young boy who stuck with me kept on getting hit because he made bad moves, etc (or maybe I was a bad influence). Then towards the end of the day, he hit a regular airsofter with some sweet flanking moves. He was over the moon, and kept on shouting "I killed him! I killed him!". Bad etiquette of course, but it was so nice to see him learn something and be genuinely happy.
If we are not careful, we will be become an elitist community!

As if some of us aren't already... Especially American players- something I noticed a lot over in New York.
