W**g C**n refused entry to New Zealand :)

He used to play at pheonix. I don't know if they banned him specifically or cameras in general but he's not there anymore. This probably goes some way to explain his increasingly twatish behaviour as he's trying to keep getting the views but can't make game foootage
No man land is the only place hes not banned , pheonix banned him ,i wanna say cos of a rant he had at a guy at the end of summer, cant remember if he was shouting calling him a faggot or gay but it was in front of kids , tho take that with a pinch of salt wanna say player numbers dropped after that as well .... but take it with a small pinch of salt
 
Hard to imagine why a site where you pay to be fodder getting shot in spawn by an overpowered gun, while being filmed and called a f*ggot on the largest YouTube channel for your hobby, would struggle to keep regular player numbers during a recession.

Boggles the mind really.

On another note, KM is pretty good proof that the whole, "if you have a toy gun that shoots more than 2.5J in the UK the police will literally kill you," is false. That fucker has video proof of running overpowered guns and he's never even had a slap on the wrist.
 
Indeed, aspiring future airsofters who will enter the hobby thinking that km's views and actions are not only normal, but expected.

Thats the real danger, i dont care if one guy wants to be an asshole on the internet, but i do care when his devotees show up pulling that shit on regular sites and thinking its acceptable.

I'm not a huge KM hater, but this is also my biggest criticism of him. Regardless of however he conducts himself or how he plays in person (I've never met him or played against or with him), his videos put out ideas that to be a good ghillie sniper, you need to go for headshots and that you should camp respawns for kills, and then ridicule people for being upset by it. I've stepped back heavily from wearing my ghillie because I've seen far too many ghillie snipers emulating these behaviours at sites I've attended, and I don't want to be associated with them and this behaviour/playstyle.

Also, his assertion that headshots are the gold standard for sniping is woefully inaccurate. Real world snipers tend to go for body shots where possible, because you're a lot less likely to miss those shots (heads tend to move a lot more and a lot more suddenly/erratically than a torso does), and the calibres they're slinging don't really care about your body armour.

Plus, that's only in the situations where they actually shoot; most sniping in the real world is stealth and observation.

This is the thing, you should go for centre of mass of what you can see. Especially in airsoft where our gold standard of accuracy isnt that good its just logical to maximise the chance of hitting.

Now that does mean if all you can see is their head, then yes the headshot is the only option and that is the game. Likewise just because you shoot for the chest doesnt mean the round wont hit the head, thats also just the game. Or maybe they move and the stomach shot you fired lands on the face, thats just the game. Point is you're objective is to get the hit and move on.

The issue is the idea that it's some sort of flex to go for the head when you don't need to, the intent to inflict pain and acting like people disliking pain is some form of character flaw rather than the hardwired result of millions of years of evolution.

Then folk start thinking thats ok, normal, and you end up with toxic acolytes and folk calling it on the hobby because they dont want to play in that environment (hi, i'm one of those folk)

Pinch of salt? You mean the video that is freely available of him calling someone a f*ggot? I have a salt mine in Siberia that you might be interested in. Yes, that is the incident to which I was referring but dig deep enough you can find others.
 
Once you're the sort of degenerate whose screaming slurs in someone's face over a game of pretend soldiers of all things their should be police and/or mental health intervention

Yeah, exactly. I don't mind when headshots happen as it's part of the game, and I will never complain about getting headshot myself. This is coming from someone who also doesn't ever wear face protection outside of my CQB kit because it steams up my glasses, since I don't get shot at that much playing the way I do. Sometimes the player is at that exact range where the hop up causes the BB to lift slightly and it ends up hitting them in the neck or the face; it sucks, but it's part of the game, or sometimes you have to shoot over some foliage that isn't immediately obvious to the player getting shot, but is a pain in the arse for the sniper who lying prone 70m out from them, leading to a headshot.

I will also always go for centre mass shots, to the point where I will often wait for someone who is peeking from a barricade to commit to shooting before I actually pull the trigger because it gives me the highest chance of hitting them with that first shot. This is especially important in airsoft because airsoft guns are not accurate at all since they're smoothbore air/gas powered muskets firing spherical plastic projectiles that weigh less than half a gram; everything about them was done away with with real firearms because none of that is practical for shooting!

When sniping in airsoft, especially when using a bolt action rifle, if you miss that first shot an experienced player will know there's a sniper around and will probably be able to work out roughly where the shooter is from where it felt like the shot came from and their own experience thinking "okay, where would I be if I was shooting at this spot?". Then it's only a matter of time before the sniper gets taken out if they don't move because AEGs with fun switches and an angled trajectory will hit you eventually. Naturally, this doesn't happen all the time at skirmish games, because not everyone is experienced and also not everyone communicates well, but I've found at milsim and battlesim events, even when the players aren't good shots (most airsofters are terrible shots and that's a hill I'll die on...) the fact that they communicate well will make the sniper have to relocate or have a substantial risk of getting hit. A lot of this risk is mitigated if you hit the person you're shooting at, because they then can't talk (dead men don't talk!) and the person 5m away from them doesn't have the same feeling of where the shot came from. It's hard to put into words, but I'm sure some of you know what I mean.
