it`s one of germanys biggest open air festivals. With Metallica and linkin Park as headliners. Also Skrillex, Guano Apes Chase and Status Marilon Manson and many more.
Skrillex live? What was that like?

I was at a party yesterday and someone brought airsoft guns. Lots of fun those things!

Please tell me you wore eye protection and went somewhere that isn't your backyard to use them...
Kinda guessed this kind of comment would come. We didn't have any of that and were in a yard, but it was far outside of town.

We just had some wooden boards set up, tilted over a bit to prevent rounds from coming straight back to us, and nailed some targets to it. We knew what we were doing to a decent extend. Don't worry.

I CO a regional airsoft team and I'm an active member in the MA Airsoft community. I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't do my best to educate the public on the issue.

1.  Airsoft guns are not toys and should be treated like real firearms at   all times. This includes wearing the proper safety equipment when in   use. The bare minimum of this safety equipment is proper eye protection. If, by some bad stroke of physics, one of those BBs came back and hit one of you in the eye, you could have been blinded or even more seriously injured. That is horrible for the person who was injured, but could be catastrophic to the sport as well. If news gets around that someone was injured by the misuse of an airsoft gun again, it is possible that legislation could be passed limiting or banning the sale or purchase of airsoft guns.

2. Use of airsoft guns in public places could be very dangerous as well. An airsoft gun is almost always a very accurate replica of a real steel firearm, and can be mistaken as such to the untrained eye. Those who are not familiar with the sport can often become alarmed at the sight of an airsoft replica. This could be a neighbor or just a passerby. I've heard stories of police being called on kids with airsoft guns. Of course it seems ridiculous to assume that there are 14 year old kids running around with M4s, but police officers will not take that chance when their life could be at risk. Again, this can be very detrimental to the sport in the long run.

For these reasons, all airsoft guns in Canada must be bright green or clear. In many locations, airsoft is banned outright.

If you want to get into the sport, look into airsoft facilities in your area. Airsoft is, at the entry level, much cheaper than paintball and for some people even more enjoyable. In most locations it is a community based event as well.
I understand that pretty well. Airsoft is actually banned on my country, but not over the border in Belgium, where the guy normally keeps them. Though he did forget to bring protection.

I'm not too sure about getting into the sport myself, though it does seem like good fun.

Sooooo... Anybody watching the Diamond Jubilee? Loads of music sounding crappy because it's live. It would be so much better if out of nowhere Skrillex appeared, kicked Annie Lennox off the stage, started wubbing, and then got the Royal Box to start moshing to Rock 'n' Roll. I'd watch it then.

Unlikely but it could still happen. XD

Skrillex would make it even worse IMO.
Just waiting for Madness personally.

Yes, his music would definetly make it worse but it would be a spectacle.

Anybody watching the new RvB? From what I've seen in the first episode, the voice acting has been a lot better (as in, they've edited the voices well so that they sound like a proper conversation)

...episode two in about 4 hours. Oh yeah.

So guys, I have a bit of an issue

Every time I try to open Major ****up (now renamed Not Quite As Bad As The Government), my RA2 crashes in major fashion. I finished it off last night, but now it won't load it
