The whole point to playing airsoft is to roleplay. If you wanna be a tard and run around dressed like a mullet wearing bum and think your cool doing so then fine, be my guest. Find a group of equally silly people and start your own thing.
95% of real airballers play for the milsim aspect, period, end of discussion. Id make jokes and shoot you as much as possible for dressing/acting stupid on purpose during an AA or any organized local airsoft game. We all have our own styles and types of tactics as teams but, we have the same goals: to own cool replica guns, shoot them at people and MILSIM.

"real airsoft players?" he carries and shoots an airsoft gun... the gun shoots airsoft rounds... he doesnt hold the gun above his shoulder like a pballer... he gets kills... how is he not a real airsoft player?

I agree, this is all about semantics at this point. Who's "real", who's genuine... That's all BS. If the guy is good, he's good, he rightly deserves props because he can score kills. What he dresses as, any discussion about whether or not he's a "real" airsoft player when he plays the damn game with an airsoft gun to begin with is just elitest garbage.

definately! if you can kick ass on the feild, regardless of what you wear or what style you have, that is what makes you a good airsoft player.(maybe not a good milsim) i think you guys are getting confused between a good
"aisoft player" and a good "milsim" two completely diff things playing the same game.

Personally I like Mil-Sim, I've hosted games that had a SWAT theme, pistol only matches, etc.

I like airsoft because its tactical, no poking your head around the corner, finger fucking the trigger as fast as you can and then hiding.  

As far as gear goes, I don't care.  Wear jeans if thats all you've got (especially if your on the other team, you'll be easier to spot), bring a springer if thats all you can afford but have a tactical attidude when you come out, not the paintballer mentality.  Lately there has been a lot of noobs wanting to hold games with 'no high caps' well I have 10 hi-caps that I use, this way I load up at the start of the day and I'm good to go for the entire day.  Minimizes down time.

Okay, everybody relax. The way we hold our events are not going to change. As far as the question your topic sucks, "forced Milsim" You are correct, there are different ways you can play, no one is forcing Milsim on you.

NEW PEOPLE TO THE BOARDS, you need to understand that the group of guys on this board is partial to milsim. Read our Rules and CoC and it even describes a milsim environment. Look that the events that we hold, they are of milsim nature. If you are not interested in milsim go ahead and check out our boards and learn whatever airsoft information you are interested, there is a ton of knowledge on here. But do not expect a great response when asking why you are forcing milsim on me, which is just how the majority of people on the boards like it.

I have a few thoughts.

Although on the forums Milsim is encouaraged, heavily at times.  I never got the forced feeling.  Its more like "This is what we like and this is what we think is cool"  kinda thing.  And that is fine, its what I like.

Also, Airsoft is primarily a game of Honor.  This goes hand in hand with military doctrine.  Often times people with less skills, and or inferior guns and gear, can still contribute to the team and have fun because of techniques used in the military.

But I digress from the main point I wanted to make.

I go to every game that I can, and in all my play time I have never seen Milsim forced on any people at GAMES!!  It may be stressed on the forums at times, but in my 9 months of playing games I have never seen a person wearing sneakers burnt at the stake.  Nor have I seen a dual wield pistol d00d run off.  Generally people are very friendly and supportive.  

Certain games may have special rules that may simulate milsim, but if you don't like the set up don't go to the game.

My suggestion is to go to games.  And I think that perhaps you may be won over to Milsim, or not.  But I garuntee you'll have fun.

Be Well,
Charlie

good point, i dont think that its actually forced. i beleive that what he meant was, would people look frown on a person that is not milsim? more of a question rather than an accusation.(trying to see what yall felt about non-milsim players)

Exactly the lack of understanding or reasoning you would expect from a noob. Totally misunderstood my post. Anyone can be a real airsoft player. Not everyone is an airballer. There is a difference and someday young skywalker you will understand...

+1 We all started without gear, cool guns, etc. But from talking to and hanging out with everyone the milsim mentality was there regardless.

Man, my team-mates make fun of me, and we gun for eachother with a vengance if we get split up!

A huge dump-pouch can be fodder for hecklers as well as a pair of Reboks!!

The Forums are different than games.

Be Well,
Charlie

Who the fuck is "frowning" on you????

YOU came in here and started this silly conversation and YOU are perpetuating this silly conversation AFTER its been fully explained that no one is forcing, frowning, or otherwise gives a rats ass what the hell you do or don't do when you play airsoft........

So stop frowning on our milsim and find a real topic already....
