I think it's the way they run the site. I was talking to Wallace on the way there and back 'cos he offered me a lift, he was saying that when they used to play people used to operate out of car boots and never talk to each other. When he used to walk around at lunch before he realised doing so was "taboo" people used to be really defensive whenever he asked them what gun they were using and what have you, so him Stef and everyone all said "I bet we could run a site better than this"
And the rest is history lol.
I think it's their friendly manner that does it though, if everyone is pleasant, then it breeds pleasantness. It only takes one charismatic dick to ruin everything.
...It's a miracle Pocket hasn't brought the whole site crumbling down yet haha.
I don't think of it so much as going airsofting anymore, for me the social aspect of it has become a part I look forward to. Like last time I went with you to Brit-Tac, and this time at Skirmish were the only times I've been with none of my own clan with me and it was great, got some right conversations with people. I almost preferred going alone because it gives me a chance to get to know and talk to other people and it's thing like that that prop up the site, it's fantastic.
I think it's the fact that other sites don't offer that atmosphere to the same degree that make me not enjoy them as much, 'cos I almost don't think about the social site when I'm reviewing the day, but in retrospect it plays key to a lot of my enjoyment.
Anyway though, I think I've gone off topic enough now...
