A thread entirely about me.....

[Loki]

Yes, this thread is entirely about me. Since somebody took the liberty of taking offense to the "10 signs you might be a noob", I figured I'd put this up, just to prove that it was all in good fun.

Top 5 signs you might be Loki:

5. You get angry rants via PM monthly from someone that you piss off.
4. You spend more on airsoft crap than your first car cost.
3. You once sold off most of your RS collection to fund the growing airsoft collection, which you then sold off to buy one expensive airsoft gun, and more RS.
2. My three hobbies: Airsoft, video games, and women (annnnddd failing miserably most of the time).
1. You've been to more airsoft games than you have been on dates.

Once again, feel free to add to this, I'm fairly thick-skinned, but don't be surprised if I sling "your mom" jokes in my own defense.

[Evil Head]

I don't know how to respond to this. Sounds like you are about to shave your head, get a tattoo, hit a car with an umbrella and check yourself into a clinic.

6. Your blew out your engine on your car and can't afford to get it fixed because you've blown all your money on airsoft... and video games... and girls.... eh, on second though, scratch off that last bit about the girls.

7. Regardless if they are pissed off at you or not, 12 and 13 year old boys think your an Uber-Airsoft God and flock around you at every chance they get.

8. You have an "Inner Sanctum".

9. You giggle and snicker like a little school girl when you get shot in the face with pletiful amounts of BBs.

10. You wear a diaper to all airsoft events just in case you see someone with an AWESOME new AEG that you've never seen before and accidentally have an "Oops" moment.

11. You get out your Ban Hammer and begin to polish it off whever you see a new member has registered at Airsoft Ohio.

[Texx]

12. You are equally annoyed and turned on by Texx replying to a PM, "Yes Sweety"

13. You offer to buy a person's AEG before they even get the gun out of the box.

[Phil]

14. You make snide, insulting remarks to your customers at Airsoft Arms!
15. you have exactly two arms two legs two eyes, and sometimes a beard.
16. You put on XL plate carriers to look like you've lost weight.

[Red]

17. You make threads about yourself.
18. You never talk about airsoft with a familiar customer, but only how awesome Rainbow Six Vegas is (it's true, though....that game rules!)
20. Your PTW has it's own Banhammer.
21. You rarely, if ever, take off your baseball cap.

[Mullet]

22. You wonder why they put warning labels on wood chippers and alongside H&K firearms.

[Blackeagles Delta]

The whole thing about going to more airsoft games than you have been on dates, for me... it true.1 date - 4 airsoft games.ha ha ha.& I have 6 pack abs but its covered up by a load of laundry.lmao

[Darkstar]

22. You get fired for making snide, insulting remarks to customers at Airsoft Arms.

23. You get fired and have to pay back months of payroll expenses after your employers discover you've not been working at all, but instead only talk to customers about Rainbow 6 while insulting them in the process.

Come to think about it, I'll have to schedule that disciplinary hearing asap.

Darkstar out.

[Darkstar]

24. You immediately instant message your bosses to beg them not to fire you and that Phil was only kidding about you insulting your customers after you discover they are going to schedule your disciplinary hearing.

[Wallace]

24. You sign up for "ride-along" (in police cars).

25. Your girlfriend's computer blew up, wiped off 8 hours of her work, she started crying, and you keep playing video game.

26. You spent more time patrolling AirsoftOhio.com then filling up the cash register.

27. You get fired because you couldn't fill up the cash register fast enough.

;-)

28. You post inane threads like these and ding people's reps if their posts cut a little too close to home.

First of all, Loki isn't a guy who hates newbies. It is his primary responsibility to moderate the forums and keep them clean of useless or misleading information or pointless posts and threads. The rules are in place and he and other moderators simply police the threads following the guidelines of the rules. Loki isn't "out to get you". That would be the boogieman.

The reason Loki posted this thread is to show he can poke fun at himself regardless of contantly being bombarded with hate-mail from newbies who feel they've been wrong. He's been threatened with bodily harm for policing posts as well. He has little tolerance for people who don't take the time to properly learn about airsoft and also their own grammar. His disdain for pointless threads and posts is not his alone, but is shared by many.

If I were you, I'd give him a break. By looking at your user rep, you've obviously had other people than Loki disagree with you. Moderators don't have God Mode when it comes to issuing forum reputation. They have to spread rep around just like everyone else, so they're not immune to the potential of abuse if you thought they are.

To ANYONE reading the following: The best thing I can tell you is that YOU are the sole person responsible for your reputation. If you act like a tool all the time, put other people down, make pointless or useless posts, or do anything else that would make people disagree with your threads and give you negative rep, it's not THEM, it's YOU. It's time to learn from what you did wrong, and work to improve your own standing. If you can't take responsibility for your own actions, then it's going to be a very long road for you.

My reputation is fine. I accept that I got miffed about what I presumed to be noob hating and apologized to Loki for getting angry. We worked it out. Matter squashed.


Oddjob out.

30. You won't eat anything with a 'squishy' consistency, which includes: Fruit, pudding, cheese, cooked vegetables, any kind of substance between a liquid and solid state, or especially any of the above in a green, white, or off-white color.
31. You won't eat food that anyone else touches. IE, if you order a meal at McDonald's, and 'someone' happens to eat just a little bit, you won't eat the entire thing because it's been 'contaminated' and your sensibilities have been offended.
32. You, in your sleep, mumble multiple gun references, including, but not limited to: "That, most definitely, is a shot gun," and something about "recon" and "support."

[red_spetsnaz]

33. You stop people from performing lewd acts with inanimate statues at Max & Ermas as Gertrude looks on in horror.

Err...don't know who did that.

~Red

[Red]

That poor Lion statue...

[Texx]

34. You choose to wield your banhammer simply to go through and delete punctuation and any semblance of English from New Member's posts. Then you ban the person for poor punctuation.

[Magnet]

35. You can make a thread all about yourself, and not only will you get away with it, but the masses will teem to fill it with posts.
36. Nobody is surprised by 32.

[Locutus]

37. Your beard satisfies the "full face protection" criteria at airsoft events.
38. Since you started playing airsoft, local forest area sasquatch sightings have increased by 300%.
