Water and Safety Concerns (Don't Shoot People's H2O Jugs)

Postby 'Skyhawk' » Sat May 12, 2012 8:10 pm

Were heading into hot weather. stay hydrated.

DO NOT EVER SHOOT ANYONES GALLONS OF WATER at airsoft games. You are taking away a vital source for hydration for the player it belongs too. Can you imagine coming off the field to find your jug of water is emtpy due to someone's target practice.

We need to think about our fellow players out there. We need to take care of each other out there. You may Call me gay for saying that, but our goal is to go out there, and do some really crazy running, diving, falling while shooting projectiles at each other. We need to look out for each other's safety out there or people can get hurt. Heat exaustion included!

This is not directed at everyone just the people who have done this. Just try and think about how your actions can effect others before you act. And please stop people if you see them doing this.

I agree people need to think about what they do more often.

That was a great game today, it's a shame that people do that. I know that when I got back to the staging area today I drank all of my water, I was 100% parched. That really would have put a damper on my day. I'm glad you said something.

Yep and when it's hot out it changes a dumb thing into a safety issue so lets keep an eye out for this.

This kind of stuff is why i always try to bring flats of water bottles to games. Definitely stay hydrated when the weather's nice and warm.

People need to have at least a little more respect for other peoples well being. It is a safety issue when it gets hotter out you basically are endangering someones life, let alone that you are damaging others peoples stuff.Heat exhaustion is not fun. I am here to have fun but not to the expense of other peoples well being.I hope all of the community thinks the same way.

Not a dumb thing, just a bunch of dummies. Skirmming with potatoes would be safer than half the derps I've seen with itchy trigger fingers.

Thats just dumb. Why would someone put someones safety into trouble like that. I would seriously not be able to play without water. They can shoot the plastic bottle of bbs on my back just not the jug. Thats not cool.

No...?

Hydration bladders are usually in a bladder pouch or something on your back...

They'll probably only break if you land on your back.

Besides, they're not that great for target practice unless someone's wearing one.

Might have been one of those 1 gallon milk jugs of drinking water. I carry a couple in my car and a bb could go through that pretty easily.
