The HPA vs AEG debate will rage on, I am unique as my AEGs are similar than most HPA users, which has given me a unique insight. I think there needs to be no different FPS limit, but an RPS limit on HPA of 25rps. Can not tell you how many times I have been lit up at close range from 25rps just under the fields fps limit from a HPA user.
My insight is I have used DSG and builds close to 50rps with 330fps, and a few other close to 40rps builds, again just on the fps limit. I don’t think it is going to be fun for other players to get 10 gels in quarter of a second at close range, so I ran these builds on semi most of the game, and if I used full auto, everybody goes to another area of the field, leaving you to play on your own. Which if you want to smash other players with massive amounts of gels is what you deserve, to fuck off.
Most of these builds no longer exist in my collection, as it just isn’t required, and I don’t want to hurt people, I want to have fun. So have toned them down to below 30rps.
Basic respect for other people. Have fun, don’t hurt people, and be fair.
Another observation, is that Speedballers don’t call hits. I am not knocking speedball as it is fun in another ruleset, what I am knocking is the mindset that competitive players bring to casual games. These players train and are almost conditioned to not call hits unless a ref calls it for them; which is a by product of playing competitively and professionally to win. I may be harsh and generalising, but it is my experience. Every time a speedball team has been at a field, these are the issues. I find them fun to play against if they are fair as they do offer a solid challenge, but can usually be out maneuvered by a bit of strategy and team work.
Never forget people, it is fun. That is what we are playing for.
You’re basically playing hide and seek with toys. Don’t be a twat, respect others and enjoy the game.
was a pretty good event but not much access to the cats as dikheds just stood there for 10 mins patting them with the line building up behind. The Dog Festival was right next door … i imagine it would have been the same with the breeders puppie stalls too.
There’s a couple there I would be interested in the WW2 luger PO8
And the six shooter
Like the one Clint Eastwood used in the movie Josey wales
I think it’s a colt 1851 navy
Lone Watie : “I thought you might be someone who might sneak up behind me with a gun.”
Josey : “Where’d you ever get an idea like that? Besides, it ain’t supposed to be easy to sneak up on an Indian.”
Lone Watie : “I’m an Indian alright… but here in the nation they call us the civilized tribe… they call us civilized because we’re easy to sneak up on.”
Extracted a broken sump bolt out of my Z9… fun when you don’t have a hudraulic stand. New gasket, new bolts, all sealed up with Permatex Aviation gasket goo. Ain’t gonna leak now…
Sump bolt = the oil drainage bolt? F%^&k did i have a battle with that on my old Yamaha TT350. Softest alloy ive come across. Had to carefully cut a slot on the bolts rather wide rim and then tappy tap with a flat point screw driver to get it moving.
