    If it's the same guy spamming usually one report is enough as it bans the whole account and hides all their threads/posts with a couple of clicks

    I go out Sunday skirmishing for a couple of hours and miss all the spam. Luckily Rock-climby-Dave was able to let the hammer fall and solve the problem.  Keep the post reports coming whenever there is spam as it gives us the best heads-up of a problem.

    ok, cool, similar to what ive played at Tuddenham. I had a gun mounted light only, but tbh hardly used it as it gave away position. A small torch is worth taking for walking back anywhere so you dont lose you footing, but if to repawn...you may get shot again!....headlight as well, but id only put on when needed

    Having a torch on your gun is always handy, if you light someone up and then shoot them they're about 400x more likely to take the hit.  
     
    A small coloured light is useful to indicate that you're dead too; "dead man with the blue light", really helps with not getting shot because people can't see your arm up!

    And yet you'll put a vapid comment on here about the world going to shit or - like the other chap - asking for a soldier on every street corner: These aren't productive contributions and are born from a place of fear and ignorance of what it all means - I'm no exception to this, and it's certainly understandable short-term to be so outrages, but when you take a look at their impact you'll realise the vast, vast majority isn't in human life but is instead self-inflicted after the fact but I also know when to not play into their narrative. This isn't helped in this day and age where one can learn about every bad bit of news within about 10 clicks but lose focus on reality, and that reality is that these guys are nothing but a small blip statistically but for some reason are given more attention than every other bad thing that we actually can negotiate with.
     
    Like Lozart says: Sympathy for their cause doesn't come from you, but they'll use what you and others say as ammunition and as a part of their rhetoric for recruiting. Mourn the dead, but don't let it get to be any more than that if you can help it. If it helps at all then on the longer-term you can view their impact simply on numbers. Whilst 1 death is as bad as 100, you'll never see headlines that don't quote a figure so if they're important to you then just remember that the total number killed in terrorist attacks in the UK from 2000 until the present makes up less than a fraction of a percent of all the deaths we've had in road traffic accidents from last year. If you keep that in mind then you'll always be wary of just how much these twats rely on your own imagination to be effective, because they're such a small-minded minority that they'll never have a significant impact otherwise.

    I hear what you are saying but normal life now is far different than it was during the IRA bombing campaigns so I would certainly say that given time things WILL get back to normal. As far as I can see, terrorist attacks here are still not "normal" because they are still headline news.
    While it seems a glib thing to say, carrying on as normal is the best response. Terrorists are aiming to disrupt everyday life and create an atmosphere where people turn against Muslims so creating the environment where radicalism can grow. They want other Muslims to see us shouting about deporting people and "rounding them up" because it causes tension that eventually leads to sympathy for their cause.

    Literally one plot foiled per week that you'll never read about because it doesn't sell newspapers. A whole war in the middle east for 10 years because of terrorism with 500 UK soldiers dying for little to no reason. More specialised armed response units than ever before. Just bear in mind that this is the sort of thing UK intelligence is supposed to deal with - if you're catching a bomb in a suitcase at the airport or needing to shoot someone then there have already been a handful of other failures between the making/importing of the bomb, communication of the perpetrators etc. that weren't caught. These are things you don't see because - again - they're either not disclosed immediately or don't have a series of gore-y videos and pictures that they can slap on the front of every tabloid for a week.
     
    It's not that no one is doing anything, it's that you're not reading about it. Increase your breadth of media consumption beyond Facebook and be realistic about the figures involved here. People like you are exactly who terrorism preys on. Whilst this is a problem, it's absolutely blown out of proportion every time to give the murderers exactly what they want - that's the really injustice here.

    Actually even with increased terror these are the safest times in human history for the west (and only getting safer). It's tragic but don't let these twats get to you - it's exactly why they do it.
