Working on episode 3 of This Week in Airsoft

Postby ThisWeekInAirsoft » Mon Mar 19, 2012 12:13 am

Thanks for listening to Ep 2 guys If you missed it or episode 1 you can find them here. The juggernaut that this show is becoming is still on the move. Next week we've got the ACA (Association of Competitive Airsoft) on the mic telling us whats up on the west coast and about their move to the east. Also as a long term project we are looking for players who are Vets of Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom for a study This Week In Airsoft is conducting on the benefits of Airsoft in treating PTSD. Checkout a newly posted editorial written by a combat veteran on being an airsofter, veteran, and PTSD. Here's a quote to give you a feel for it.


" In airsoft I have found what I thought I could never have again. In airsoft I've also found other veterans looking for the same thing. We are all looking to be that great again and release the frustrations of this new life without the military. PTSD doesn't have to be a problem without an answer and in action we can feel better then after any number of therapy sessions."


Guys we are still looking for team and field  photos and videos. Lastly we have a new addition coming soon that allow us to do more when your ops come up, just wait and see whats coming up.

As always we need you and your help to keep the movement going. We are the first true airsoft media for the players by players and will constistantly be here for you. Every two weeks we speak to you guys the This Week in Airsoft army and the ranks are swelling. That's because you're out there spreading the word. So keep recruiting and together This Week in Airsoft will conquer the world.
Thanks
James “Fringe” B

I'd be interested to hear what the ACA has to say.They seem to be all about competitive Airsoft but they completely ignore the possibility to cheat in Airsoft and they haven't offered up any kind of a solution to that. It seems kind of ridiculous to put so much hype out there for a competition when you can't even accurately measure the results.

What makes you think that? There has been plenty of media produced by Airsoft players in the past.

Haven't had time to listen to the podcast, what with it being finals week.

However, I am underwhelmed with the level of knowledge expressed by whoever is running the website.

With so many good resources out there, I'd probably ignore this one.

Update: I won't be listening to the podcast.

I'm apparently not their target audience. According to the site hosts, all of my CQB experience has been drawn from YouTube and "the internet", and I am in no way qualified to hold an opinion on proper tactical doctrine.

So, chances are, I won't be visiting them again.

Arguing about tactics is like arguing about politics or religion. It's hilarious when people think there's only 1 right way to do something. Your comment doesn't look like a childish rant at all. From my perspective, it looks like they had no rebuttal to give to the solid opinion you had. The only bruised ego here is the guy replying to you. If they're going to post videos and label them "tactifail," they should be prepared to explain and defend why.

shazaam, I can find something wrong with every single Airsoft video on the internet. Does it matter? It's not like I was there to see the actual outcome. If they got the kill or accomplished the objective, who cares?
