Little Things That Annoy You In Airsoft

[20ChickenNuggets]

When Warrior Assault don't supply UK Tactical with full DCS 5.56 setups in Ranger Green, resulting in buying separately and incurring additional costs.

When you buy heavy weight bbs that are not reflective enough to trace with your upgrade sniper.

 

[PT247]

buy white ones!

 

[padraigthesniper]

I did but unlike the .2 counterparts the .43 seem to be less shiny and are hard as fuck for me to see at range my next bb purchase im gonna get the shiniest ones possible lol

What really annoys me is when you buy a second hand gun and it pretty much breaks after 5 minutes, this has happened recently with the sniper rifle i bought.

No skirmish sites beings close enough to get to without being up at silly o'clock..god i'm so not a morning person XD

Use tracer, should be able to follow those all the way to target

this, i also gotta wait til november before i can start driving, (if i pass the test) and i live about 45 mins away from the "local" which as my dad's car does like 20mpg max equals a lot of begging and jobs to get there, which is really fucking annoying lol

Oooo....I've got one. Minor annoyance, and a really pedantic one at that.

When people put 'O.N.O.' on their sale threads. A lot of people don't seem to realise that 'O.N.O.' means 'Or nearest offer', which means the closest offer to the asking price should be taken. So when someone asks for £300, and the only offer is £100, that's the nearest offer. But of course, no-one would accept that. Really pedantic, but it sort of irks me when people put 'O.N.O.', but what they actually mean is 'will accept £10 less than the asking price if no-one else is interested'.

Not even an airsoft annoyance really, more of a general english one

It is English! :lol:

Put simply, moaning! I find moaning far worse than non-hit taking, over killing etc..

 

[rc540]

Gbbr mags being £35 a pop and real cap...

Ah but at least you don't get to watch a penny's worth of BBs fall to the floor every time you hit the mag release.

I always understood O.N.O. to mean "or near offer". It's not an auction, you know...

 

[Twice19]

People who always insist on others having the "right" kit all the time.

If you want to put money into making an accurate MilSim Loadout or whatever, then cool beans. I can see that when time, effort and money goes into it - it can be brilliant

But, don't criticise me because "you really should be wearing US Colours if your going to use an M4" or if I'm wearing the "wrong vest and should use PLCE or Osprey it you want to wear DPM".

Seriously, it's just a game!!

 

[djben9]

Twice19, you were right though, it is just a game

some people do over dress and then don't play when they get there, Trigs had this mentioned before in one of his topics, i dress for comfort when playing and ease of use and because i have it i guess and its useful, otherwise I wouldn't have bought it ..........(just don't tell the wife!)

right off to look for a radio ​

 

[i3666]

People who try and snuggle up to marshalls and act like they are part of the establishment at skirmishes.

Ahhhhh, the groupies!

 

[Sacarathe]

Ahhhhh, the groupies!

Or, people who are just polite!

 

[ImTriggerHappy]

Or, people who are just polite!

No they are groupies. The people who always jump to the front in briefings hoping the marshall picks them for something. They hang around in the safezone in the areas most likely to lead to conversations with the marshalls. The ones who have been playing a site for years and think they are somehow different to every one else because they play every week at the same site (because they dont have a real life).

They will be facebook friends with as many marshalls as will except the request. They will also try and name drop the marshalls because they like people to know they are bestest friends.

When the marshall cracks a joke about something that happened they will always try to back them up with the all knowing head nod or shake. During the briefings when people are talking they will always try to help the marshall out with a nice loud "be quiet" shout because although they are not on the payroll they want everyone to see them as a figure of authority because they have the marshalls back.

I am not saying you can't be friendly towards a marshall and have the occasional chat but try to remember they are just doing a job and that isn't being your bestest airsoft snuggle buddy.

To the marshalls who do get too matey with players please stop because its a conflict of interest.

To the players who fit the above description you are sad, pathetic, sycophantic tw*ts.
