Have you ever had your day cut short due to other player's bad behaviour?

Fair enough.

I've yet to come across any "airsoft celebs" but I agree with you and to be honest I don't really care if someone has made a name for themselves in airsoft. As long as they don't have a massive ego and play by the rules then who really gives a sh*t? Same goes for any player really!
Apocalypse Airsoft has banned a few Airsoft Celebs, I'm sure the celebs would spin to suit them, however they were asked not to come back to Apoc due to their general douchebaggery!  

 
I had half my team almost up and leave today.

There was 6 Ukrainians (judging by flag on gear) that:
1. Weren't taking their hits (the classic)

2. Blind firing every 5 mins (marshal picked them up a few times for it but they kept doing it)

3. Shooting through cracks (which was not allowed at this site)

4. Full-Auto everywhere (not allowed in some places)

5. lobbing nades like their free (not cheating but lobbing grenades around every corner you come to is a bit frowned apon)

6. Calling out our guys really aggressively even though the marshal said they didn't hit shit.

See now I have never ever called out a cheater - I usually assume I have missed or he just didn't feel it.

But I had to call out one of them after I shot them, they raised their hand, walked into the container next to them then peak out and shoot me.

.... I honestly was gobbed smacked, complete disbelief, mindblown.

Me and my mate rose above it though and just messed around and had fun regardless but for the rest of our team it ruined their day.

I had one of those days today myself. Took my little brother with me as he’s been pestering me. Morning matches I was getting really annoyed, most players were talking through the brief and just not listening.

All up until lunch it seemed that the only time we got someone to call a hit was when it was a trade kill, my team were moaning about it too. There was blind firing everywhere and twice I got full auto to the back at 5m or less away. Had a guy nail me in the temple with a Sniper from well within the MED. I got one guy to surrender and go back to his spawn only to decide 10 seconds after calling his hit to change his mind and shoot me in the neck. In honesty it was the players with all top of the line gear who were the main problem. Probably didn’t help that I was hit by friendly fire more than the enemy for one match.

Luckily things got a bit better after lunch but I think that had as much to do with the fact the ranges were closer than it was any sense of fairplay. 

 
Yes my third game at a site I shall keep nameless. A team in full tactical gear kept lobbing MK5's around every corner, and power playing. When they got told by the martial they kept doing the same thing, lobbing grenades as if it were going out of fashion and 1 man running into an entire hall of players pretending not a single shot hit him.

Said person and his team the proceeded to shout and swear at the other players, me and a friend decided we had enough and left to go home. The next week found out they got banned from the site. ?

 
i must confess i've become very zen with non hit takers of late, overheated the m4 last game against a known cheater, just decided "if this is how you want your day to go i'm happy to keep supplying the bb's"

most of the day wasnt bad, the insane 3rnd burst did good work in the forest, wether people were actually hit or not the noise alone made most folks call it without needing a follow up (either that or my marksmanship has improved dramatically :P  )

next shoot is going to be interesting, it's a big shoot but the site's taking on extra marshalls which means there might be a chance that chrono spot checks, test shots, and watching for hit taking might actually happen....

See, that's what I find disappointing.  If a site doesn't enforce its own rules through the ultimate sanction of ejecting / banning, it's just wasting everyone's time by declaring them.

One warning is happenstance, twice is coincidence, three times is enemy action.  That squad will be back again, there or elsewhere, knowing that there is no effective sanction for them playing in God Mode.

Yup. My other favourite occurence when talking to a Marshall is the ‘he’s a regular’ or ‘she comes here all the time’ followed by they don’t normally do that...

oh thats not that bad, when you can identify if someone is going to take the hit or not before you shoot them, well that's bad.

Ive run into a few of them over the last few years airsofting and unfortunately it seems to be occurring more. I won’t play certain sites anymore as I’ve said before marshals and site owners wouldn’t dare upset their regulars that line their pockets week in week out.
