Vandalism at sites

Yes we lost some fence panels at Eversley a few months back, but they were caught making off on a ATV and had to jettison some of their loot.

 
a similar conversation came up at todays skirmish. It seems that they dont get vandalism as such but they do get regular visits from thieving gypo scum even though nothing of value is ever left on site

 
two entire houses burnt down to the ground at my local site :(

 
I suppose we are lucky in having monitored CCTV and a 30 foot prison fence around our site... it does appear to be a regular occurrence along with break ins happening far to often at the min too.

 
Two sites I've played at have had both vandalism and theft, first sight had the safe zone set on fire then the second sight had parts of their puma go missing every week when they came down to play

 
Slightly off topic but there used to be a Post Apoc larp system that used airsoft guns for combat called N.E.X.U.S, their site got broken into and burnt to the ground it killed the whole game as even after insurrance they couldn't afford to re-start.

 
some homeless man once stole a moldy broken old tent from finmere, does that count?

 
During a day's play at Skirmish Mansfield some arse dug up a piece of camo net which had been partly trodden into the dirt and insisted that it was now his. I tried my best to make him understand the concept of "not yours; not your land: thieving bastard" but he wasn't having any of it. His brain just didn't seem able to compute that simply digging half of something out of the ground did not somehow convey ownership of said item - he's probably a frustrated metal detectorist.

When the site isn't in use they have multiple motion sensors as well as fixed alarms, all of which text staff, and video surveillance, so problems have been few and far between. However their is another site a few miles away whose owners used to do business with Skirmish's people and are now disgruntled after they went off in a huff and subsequently died on their arse business-wise... they are believed to be behind the theft of signs on the main road away from the security zone.

TBH, as others have said, by their very nature sites are easy targets, so the way forward is either to build fixtures out of non-flammable materials and/or use proper modern security, which is a shame for small time operators just starting up. There are enough things to worry about without the prospect of people deliberately fucking you over...

 
While I'm not 100% sure on vandalism,since BPA's not an airsoft exclusive site,we do have a problem with people dumping random stuff. Broken down/Written off cars,random crap. One time someone dumped a drum set and some perfectly fine couches for us to use which is nice.

 
I'd be getting everyone down there during the evening to ambush them when they come in. No respect these days.
