What unit was this? I'm sure a quick search on the DoD database will show all the MP units around, and it will take less than a few phone calls to figure out the one you were with.

I am 100% positive the company commander would totally allow a bunch of kids to train with "real world" units, regardless of how pogue they are.

XavierMace, do you ever hang out at Gamers Inn?

So how big of a IQ do you need to figure out that kids who ask questions and sound excited about airsoft are a good thing. What we need to get rid of is punks such as yourself that put kids down.And sorry dude its not how smart you are its how productive you are in the world that counts

That's entirely a matter of opinion.  No we don't need a bunch of kids playing airsoft.  We don't need more media attention.  We don't need more "national recognition".  All that's done is cause more headache for airsoft.

I would love to see a planet run entirely by productive stupid people.  You run a bar, I run servers, how would you like to gauge productivity?

56th MP unit. SGT. Robert Fairchild (currently deployed in Afghanistan), have fun.

The company commander was cool with it because I'm not some punk ass kid who thinks they know everything about everything. Take your time bud. I'll be waiting. Also, if you don't hear from me in a while, it'll be because I'm airsofting, unlike you.

productivity is more than just work what have you done to better yourself or someone else.

productivity is more than just work what have you done to better yourself or someone else.

Asking why we don't need a bunch of kids playing airsoft is like asking why we don't need a bunch of kids driving cars.  If for no other reason, because they are operating potentially dangerous equipment and they aren't liable for their actions.

Explain why we do "need' national recognition.

In regards to where I live.  I have no problem living in a old house.  I'd much rather spend the money on toys.  So if you want to compare sizes, how much do you make?  Or what might be a better question, how far in debt are you?

In regards to productivity...  I certainly haven't seen you producing anything of use.  In regards to me, ask any of the dozens of people I've helped with their ICS's or the 30,000 members we have on ASR.  Or even ask any of the owners of the thousands of computers I've built.  Or you talking about personal achievements like working full time and taking college courses?  Or teaching myself 2 different programming languages?  How about donating time and my skills to charity?

Considering how quick people are to dismiss me as a "dickhead" or complain about my putting down people I don't know, you guys rather quick to do the same.

Explain why we do "need' national recognition.For all the small businesses who sell airsoft.And for a small business the more common a thing is the less it will cost. please tell me you have some kind of buiness sence

In regards to where I live.  I have no problem living in a old house.  I'd much rather spend the money on toys.  So if you want to compare sizes, how much do you make?  Or what might be a better question, how far in debt are you?haha no debt.good try though

In regards to productivity...  I certainly haven't seen you producing anything of use.  In regards to me, ask any of the dozens of people I've helped with their ICS's or the 30,000 members we have on ASR.  Or even ask any of the owners of the thousands of computers I've built.If you are 26 and you lets just say you started building computers at the age of 19 you would have to build 1 computer every 2to 3 days if you only built 1000 not thousandss Or you talking about personal achievements like working full time and taking college courses?  Or teaching myself 2 different programming languages?  How about donating time and my skills to charity?what charity?Me well habitat for humanity every year for 10 years in the 90's I've donated my time to beatitudes i'll let you figure that one out.Ihave 3 grown kids I coached my kids teams in soccer,baseball,and softball for 16 years and now im helping my 16 year old son to start a airsoft team.shoot i think ive been doing this longer then you have been alive
Considering how quick people are to dismiss me as a "dickhead" or complain about my putting down people I don't know, you guys rather quick to do the same.[/quotewell then dont be a dick cuz we dont have to put up with it and if there are more then one saying this you should look into it cuz it might be you

You'll notice I never said I wasn't a dick.

In regards to the small business, you seem to only be looking at this from the mindset more people = more money.  However if you had any business sense, you would know that you have to take into consideration margins and in this industry service costs.  People have gone from buying $400 guns that last forever to buying $150 guns that break in a month which wouldn't be so bad, except they have a warrenty so you don't make any money off that.  You make more money selling 1 guns with $90 of profit than 5 guns with $10 of profit.  Asomeone who sells said guns, those are actual numbers, not just random facts pulled out of my ass.  Let me know if you need help with the math on that.

Because I can't do that while at work.  I can be an ass all day long online AND work at the same time.
