He put a pic of himself in his modern Airsofting kit up on PST. Quite tempted to tear him a new one about how Farby his PSD loadout is :twisted:

Gadge is a walt bell end.

Gowert is just a bell end.

End of!

Edit - Have you noticed how Josh (another bell end) is spamming the forum with more games?

Yup, a booking thread for 'Streets of Fire' but no description of what, where or when the hell it is. And a game with a 'possible' date that clashes with Wladek's game. :slap:

True. All I did was post that I've got concerns over gunmans sisk at Sennybridge. Gadge got snidey and Nige has tried to be all "mr moderator", both with posts and via pm.

Here....

pete, dont slag other airsoft organisers off please, it does nothing to get rid of the image of ww2 airsofters as a bunch of stitch counting killjoys. it dont help. we might not be the biggest fans of josh's take on history, but some people like it.and in the end its about fun. isnt it?

cheers , nige.

And here...

people do share your views pete, me included on some points, but the bit about " sterling and there bitch dave manning" was a bit close to insulting...

we are about airsoft pete, be it good or bad. there has been enough bad feeling lately, we are just trying to build bridges. a few of us are looking at going to a gunman game as a way of recruiting some of the " proper" genuine ww2 interested airsofters. say what you like about joshes games, he does get the numbers there, amongst them there must be a few who are that bit keener like we are. and if they are all knobs, we just wont go again.

you dont need to tell me that £85 is a chunk of cash, i have earned just over 500 quid in ten months !!!

nige.

And my reply (yet to be read).

If you knew dave manning and of the things he's done and is still doing, you'd understand and I'm glad the vitriol of my thoughts for him got across in my post. As for Stirling services, it wasn't so long ago that you and I were both laying into them on the CiA forum!

Not sure what use any "bridge building" is going to be? As far as I'm concerned, there's been no bad feeling, although I keep hearing stories about a PBI/CiA rift, which will only become self perpetuating the more some people bang on about it. My reasons for leaving the PBI organiser team were made perfectly clear on a day that I had organised and run to raise some funds for PBI! Though chinese whispers may have changed them by the time you heard them?

Meh, Josh has been finding excuses to not attend CiA and PBI events for years and cock company are a lost cause - why would anyone want to associate with those (in the main) cheating, obnoxious idiots anyway?

Edit - By the way Nige, if you'd rather ever talk, than communicate via pm (which is a shit form of communication), my number is 01902 417351. I'm happy to chat anytime.

LOL, Nige stomped off our forum after I reprimanded him for slagging off reenactors. Looks like he was waiting for a chance to get his own back! Still, he has no grounds to criticise me now, silly man.

I can't see why Gadge has gone all evangelical and put such store in pulling the community together. Who split it? And in any case CiA ran both of Josh's first games, how more friendly do we have to be?
However, I think it is great Gadge has put his minion into the position where he has to go to an event he doesn't want to go to and hasn't got the money for. There's a true lackey for you! :rofl:

TBH, if Josh, Manning, Dick Company and the lesser elements of PBI want to team up for a mutual backslap and circle tug, they can.

With Boryszyn we've shown how we have the general support of the WW2 community. Once again we are leading the way, I await with interest for that lot to pop up with a load of Eastern front games.

Prediction: One of them will try to run a game at Drakelow in the next 6-9 months. I suspect it'll be a Gunman/PBI collaboration.

If Gadge is forced into assisting with AI WW2 games next year then he won't have a great deal of time...

And its strange how, even after all this time, Gadge is still a PITA to us, or at least still exercises our ire!

Pete: Its really impossible to describe how Gadge very nearly destroyed CiA post-Arnhem. Everyone was so pissed off what with one thing or another and it took Guy to ask Gadge to leave CiA knowing full well that Yith would leave with him. We haven't looked back since.

Gadge's reply to Pete on PBI forum:

I know where you're coming from pete but for this one we want to go and just have fun and play by someone elses rules.

You're going to need at least 50 a side to get a good battle at senny and i cant see there being 50 brit line inf knocking about.

Plus we've been doing a lot of talking with Josh, Dog Co, 47 commando etc and we really want to unify the wwii scene instead of the fracturing rubbish that has been happening. At the end of the day we're there to have fun and play airsoft, if i want hardcore accuracy i'll get it at a re-enactment event. If the US/Russians or mongolians are there i'm not that fussed for one event - i can live with it if it means i get to game with the dozens of guys we never see anymore.

What I (and i knwo i speak for all the PBI orgs here) want is a *friendly* supportive WWII scene where we realise there are many valid playing styles and have a go at each of them every now and then rather than declaring oursleves 'the best' if you get me.

I think a lot of the guys who went to the unreal open day the other day came back refreshed and raring for airsoft. I know personally the politics of it all have been dragging me down of late and i just want to have fun with folk and play games for a bit. On my part I cant be bothered with arguing with anyone, if i dont liek a gameor a ruleset i just wont book in rather than griping about it, lifes too short :)

We'd love to have you in the squad (or doing sniper) pete so if you fancy it book in with us and just take it for what it is.

to Barry and Anne: Wicked, be great to have you along! Thats nealry a full section now.

What a hypocrite! We have NEVER said our events were the best publicly - just that we do things OUR way and organise the games WE want to play. There has always been a market for the SISK and its great that Josh provides it. so we don't get the nobbers.
Still, at least Gadge is admitting his aren't hardcore or accurate!

I'm not even going to dignify gadge with a response. Scaleys' reply to my pm was evasive and didn't reply to any of my comments. Neither of them are worth expending my time on and it looks like we won't be seeing them at a CiA event anytime soon.

They talk of unifying the WW2 scene, yet they seem to forget that their recruiting base is right here and that all WW2 airsoft as it is today, owes it all to CiA! If they carry on like this, I say pull the PBI subforum and let them have their own little circle jerk on their own board.

Heh, Gadge is busily posting on Gunmans forum. Not that he will have a huge audience - you can almost hear the wind blowing through that forum (still). Are Josh's player non-computer literate. Or are there just no players? :lol:

There are players there. Very set in their ways players. Gadge will have no joy whatsoever trying to persuade people who dress as RM Commandoes to switch to line infantry. He'll also get frustrated when the gunman lot don't prostrate themselves before his all knowing selfs' feet. From what I've seen and read on there, there's not a lot of concern or respect for the actual history of the battles they play out either. Caen is an iconic British/Canadian battle, the same as St Lo is an iconic U.S battle, yet the "all comers" attitude to uniforms spoils any potential for them to be anything other than sisks.

Edit - Niges' pm's have taken a different, anti CiA tone now, so, I've bitten (only a bit).

the reason i dont post on CIA anymore pete is due to the fact that anything the leaders dont agree with is either shouted down or deleted. very diplomatic. eh? look what they did to gadge over a post enquiring about POW scotland, and the fact they removed his moderator status without any reason.
PBI are not getting into bed with josh, we are just exploring other avenues of ww2 airsoft. simple as that.
PBI wanted our own website, the way chommers went off you would think we had commited a crime.
to quote chommers "CIA is not the be all and end all of ww2 airsoft" but it seems that CIA doesnt like it if anyone else does ww2 themed airsoft.
many members of CIA regularly attend josh's games and have a great time. we want to see one for ourselves.

didnt think it would be such a big deal to be honest.

Who said anything about it being a big deal? You were the one talking about bridge building if I recall?

C-W wasn't at all pissed off about PBI having their own boards, he was initially miffed about noone having the decency to tell him about it, that's all and I don't blame him. Hell, he was even at Crich and noone had the balls to tell him! But, he's a grown up, so doesn't waste his time on hissyfits and grudges, unlike some. Talking to some PBI members, they were a bit mystified why gadge felt the need to "split" as well. It's gadge who blew that one up, the same as with his unfair comments on the POW airsoft thread, which he hastily deleted when the shit started flying his way and he then tried to blame it on all but himself. Somehow it got twisted and became a CiA/PBI thing (the same as some other, trivial matters)!

His moderator status wasn't "removed" either. For starters, C-W asked for section moderators as part of a forum reshuffle, to make members feel more involved in the community and gadge never asked (though other PBI members, including Yith did). I really think you should listen to what other people have to say about these matters, rather than just listening to gareth.

Anyway, back to the original subject! As for Sennybridge, I think I've made up my mind now. I really do hope you have a good game of it and you get value for your money.
