Recently, a few rules have been ignored or so that I feel need to be mentioned again.

I would like to strain this rule:

Quote

6. Airsoft-Barracks is part of the airsoft community.
Airsoft-Barracks is an airsoft site that is out to help the airsoft community. Please do not insult or trashtalk other forums or sites that are trying to help out the airsoft community. Everybody gets a fresh start at Airsoft-Barracks, so please do not treat others as you did on other places.

Recently, we have been seeing attacks on other communities. I would like to remind all of you that no matter WHERE on this forum, rule six is in effect.

I dont give a rat's tail if that other forum banned you, they insulted you, or they insulted ASB. This is ASB. We aren't the others. Therefore we keep ASB matters on ASB and other forum matters on other forums.

And quite frankly, we should be respecting other forums. We are here to gain knowledge and share airsofting experiences. If you need drama then take issues elsewhere. Regardless of what other forums say we should be accepting of all members and look to help each other out as much as possible so we can advance our sport for the better of the airsofting community as a whole. Take this is a reminder and please keep your heads level. There is no need to belittle and demean people due to their strive towards gaining knowledge in the sport.

You will be immediately warned if bashing or personal insults takes place. Larger punishments will occur for multiple offenses.

I really don't understand why someone would insult another forum. That is just really immature.

Because many people on the internet, whether a regular member or a staff member are immature.

Because being an internet tough guy directly translates to real life, meaning if you bash another forum you're a badass in real life.

And if you act like a ninja?

Bashing other forums is just stupid. It makes us look bad, this forums isn't super secret private. You can google search "airsoft forums" and this will probably be a top result. So someone from another forum can easily see us bashing them, or some prospective member can see an insulting statement and be like "these guys are d-bags"

I realized that airsoft forums can be treated like countries. Some are allied/related forums, some are rivals, and some (such as ours) have broken off from a larger forum. Now, if politicians (members) start talking ***** about other countries, that leads to very bad things does it not?

E-High five on the good analogy.

Don't even say you like one forum more then another!
Or hang-out with a "bad" group of guys on here.
Or have the possibility of conspiring against them.

I'm proof of that.
