What kind of examples do you think are needed ?, I personally think there's definitely a need for a puke emoji ? or ?, & maybe this one ? ?

Hey Guys, Thought I'd share, I received an angry pm from the op, which I responded to, explaining how things generally are here & why the thread rapidly went downhill, & that thread derailment, while common here, usually has a better outcome. As you can see, his response was measured, rational, & apologetic, & he ended it with "he'll keep his head down". Thing is, as a forum, I've never met a better bunch of more helpful guys, yes we never miss an opportunity to wind up or mickey take, but it's always with the best intentions. His response to ribbing was a knee jerk reaction, something we've all been guilty of at some time, but no one should feel they can't participate here, so let's move on ? So anybody actually had hands on with the aforementioned aeg ?

Whatever, thread locked to stop you getting further butthurt, threads derailed beyond repair anyway & I can see it just getting nasty If you have such a low opinion of the forum & it's members, maybe you need to consider if its the right place for you ?.

Get over yourself ❄️, my first comment was aimed at the fact that yet another manufacturer lazily pushing out yet another m4 & telling us it's "new", my post had feck all to do with who was posting it. You're just too easy?, the emoji on the end (?) should signify it's just a giggle, clearly irony is wasted on you.

Whatever pal, I'm trying to keep the peace, whereas you seem keen to cause a drama where it's not needed. No problem though, I'll sit back & eat my popcorn, give me a shout if anybody miss-genders you etc.?

Mate, take a chill pill, you made a statement that another member remembered & he no doubt wondered what might have changed your view, nothing malicious in his post, maybe consider that at least members here actually take an interest in other people's thoughts & experiences. As for everything that's followed, you bite & people will gee you up for a response, dare I say it, maybe it's banter ?.

This topic has got me really excited, it's been days since anybody bought out another AR derivative aeg, I was getting withdrawal symptoms ?

Guys, seems like most things are working again ? ??

Hi Guys, just gonna put this out there, getting a lot of pm's today about the ongoing issues, unfortunately the only person who has access to the super technical stuff is proffrink, who I guess deals with the hosting company. I can't get the classifieds either, so I'm just relying on the new content button to refresh stuff. Given that some other airsoft sales related sites are down, I'm gonna assume it's an issue at the hosting company ? I'm not usually a conspiracy theorist but it's weird how we've had an onslaught of scam attempts from new members originating from Russia, who's public enemy number one at the moment, & then this happens. I've even been locked out of FB tonight, & any attempt to set a new password is just buffering non stop ? Hopefully, a day or two & normal service will be resumed. Thanks for your patience ?

I'm sure @proffrink will look in to it, but if other sites are having similar issues, sounds like an "off site" problem ?

Yeah, but yor the teecher ?

Sunday night, gotta get his stuff ready for skool in the morning ?

@Airsoft_Ginie, sorry, don't believe a word of it, without context, the "large airsoft company" you supposedly work for will either supply products as a wholesaler/retailer, or gameday services as a site, but your post alludes to "everything airsoft" being something you have the potential to supply or fix ?. I call bullshit on your post?

@luke303, you need to make written section 51 requests under the foi act, to the school & all agencies involved. Want to see what positions have the most vacancies, go on to pretty much any county council jobs pages, social worker positions far outnumber any other job. And unfortunately it's usually because the very few good social workers don't last long, having left because of bullying & deep rooted ineptitude amongst their so called colleagues, who will happily close ranks & lie, while failing to serve societies most vulnerable who need help the most.

Sorry to hear what your going through, as has been said, yes it's definitely a case of overreacting, but certain points, such as your sons adhd, will trigger red flags in the system due to previous cases of exploitation of vulnerable people, even if your sons background criteria doesn't fit those previous high profile cases. What I will say is social services are probably one of the most lazy & corrupt organisations in existence, & I would hate it if the fact that you are trying to encourage your son to pursue his interests in a controlled safe manner, is likely to be used against you. To that end, you need to audio record all meetings with them, preferably with some sort of concealed professional device, rather than relying on a phone which can go wrong or be disrupted. You'll need to do this covertly, SS will never voluntarily agree to recorded meetings, & will immediately leave meetings should this be discovered. Unfortunately their reports tend to be written in a piecemeal fashion, in order to discredit or malign those they're working against, so you need to protect yourself as a family with solid proof of what's said during these meetings, which you'll need to save & possibly document for future reference. If you fail to do this, at the very least you'll find your son railroaded on to the "at risk register", or worse.

Definitely spam, of the punjabi variety? As always, thanks for the heads up Rogerborg?

Our old buddy @Druid799 might have a contribution or two for this thread. C'mon Tony, make them sad ?

Tbh my 27yo son has his guns in a locker under his bed, but batteries/gas/BBs are under lock & key in the garage, which in itself has extra security due to my bikes/tools etc being in there. Don't think you can ever be too careful.

They do another one, think its called the hdr50, can take paintball or solid rubber balls, was thinking of getting one for a giggle as apparently there's an upgrade kit that pushes output up to 7.5j , might be good for dispatching the rats that are pestering my chooks ?

Hi guys, just to let you know there's a new moody scam attempt going on, appearing to target sellers & purporting to be from the forum itself, telling sellers their item has sold & to click on a link within the message to complete the sale. Seems to be originating from Russia, not sure what happens if the link is clicked, probably a trojan horse type virus to mine your info. Don't fall for it, obviously if you get one let us know so we can ban them immediately, here's a screenshot of the kind of text you'll receive:

@Thomas0494594 is no more?? (Poxy russian)

Not this one anymore ?

Have a butchers ? https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/umarex-elite-force-h8r-gen-2-co2-revolver

I've got one, gen2, & bought it s/h, so someone else suffered the resale loss ??. Can't see me ever selling it, giggle to use & plink with, plus kinda niche for civvy type loadouts, redneck with a shotgun etc lol. I've got a locking holster too, have them for all my guns, when you know you know?
