Then remarking how airsoft only works with honesty. I think you make a really good point here with regards to calling out a site, publicly naming them and putting your spin on why they banned you. But then also asking your followers to leave reviews in the full knowledge that the vast majority have never or will never go to that site is a cunt move and opens KM up to potential defamation problems if the site wanted push this. As the old saying goes you reap what you sow and i feel that perhaps having help create this narrative that airsoft is full of Cheaters the narrative is now biting back somewhat. I just want to add this still doesn't give anyone the right to publish his address and phone number online in order to harass and intimidate KM.

Much smaller guys are going to be less prone to it though and because they don't have the "social weight" in the first place are likely much more aware nobody gives a fling about their opinion. Clearly in your example the guy was wrong as well so it would only take a few comments and dislikes to sink the video from people/regulars from the site who know the rules.

What a cunt 😛 Before I even joined this forum, I had already told Youtube not to show me his videos. Common theme in most of my post/rants is how i hate cheaters. So KM if you are reading this I want that mug! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the old saying goes you reap what you sow and i feel that perhaps having help create this narrative that airsoft is full of Cheaters the narrative is now biting back somewhat. it's an evolutionary process, start doing yt for a bit of fun, randomly encounter a legit cheater in the wild, publish video, get that first pile of admonies, think "hey this is a lark" and start seeking them out. of course there comes a point where you aren't going to find enough naturally occurring drama to feed the machine so you have to fabricate your own. and that's where we've ended up. problem is if folk beleive the fantasy then you can either admit to the lie or as it seems km is doing double down and end up pulling stunts like this. tbh if i were the site i'm not sure what to think, on the one hand you're gonna be getting bad rep and losing players but on the other hand if the people you're losing are the kind of people who buy into the persona did you really want them in the first place?

But is it worth gaining a chromosome in the process? I mean, the whole drama around KM is just a reminder that his fan base behaves like those "omg impossibru level" mobile game ads. And his EnEmYs too apparently, because the guy who shared the personal information (address, phone number) has just won a free lawsuit should something happen (you know, the same 5IQ person who "casually" strolls by Cumstain's house and does something stupid)..

Nodnol Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 As much as I avoid his videos, and I do get the “don’t like, don’t watch” argument, but have you seen his comments? I’m no liberal “won’t someone think of the children” snowflake, but he and his like are genuinely bad for airsoft. They portray unrealistic expectations, poor gamesmanship and encourage really bad attitudes and mindsets. Sure some exposure for the pastime is good, but it’s a really bad introduction for a lot of kids and newbies that are really starting out on the wrong foot.

Alimcd Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 And I’m just gonna wade in here... Watched a few KM videos and thought “this guy has got pretending to be a bush down to an artform” Watched a few more and realised “this guy’s got a attitude problem” If he’s not shouting at marshalls in the states he’s giving someone grief elsewhere. Bullied at school? of this whole kicked debacle I actually feel a bit sorry for him. Firstly, it’s his income and these are difficult times. Secondly, he strikes me as being a bit pathetic as a bloke and he clearly needs the Mustang persona to get through his day to day. I suspect if you called him a c£&@ to his face he’d carry that around for a long, long time instead of brush it off like a proper fella should Ambivalence embodied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRay Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Is that his little pet Nicco? For someone who makes a very big noise about being in 2 Rifles I can tell you that they have never heard of him... I would also query the kills/deaths markers that they include at the bottom of the videos. ‘Woah 33 kills and 1 death, this guy is the best airsofter that ever lived!’ I call bullshit. Very easy to edit out being shot up the arse with a G36 rental wielded by an 11 year old girl that weighs less than the RIF... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should clarify I believe he was in the military my observation relates that a lot of people who play airsoft are serving our ex military and don’t make a big song and dance about. From watching his videos you could make the assumption he was some super soldier sas type. To be clear my opinion is maybe there is some embellishing however if I am wrong I would personally apologise to the lad. However I would not call anyone a Walt unless I was 100% sure, my remark was more tongue in cheek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
