1.) Enforcement of rules. There are definitely many kids (which I have nothing wrong with) but they don't like to take hits, dry fire, etc. I have also seen some people (kids lol) using their nifty radios to tell teammates enemy positions even after they are out. Pretty lame.
2.) Price. I know you are saying they're a business but I don't see how that doesn't exempt them from this suggestion. Even if it was just $10 vs. $15 it would be a huge improvement and would put them ahead of DP.

I dunno though. I really, really dont like paying for airsoft games. haha. Went once and it was fun enough but any more than that just seems like kinda a waste because the novelty has worn off..

Enforcement of rules (few people follow the rules). ESPECIALLY the blindfire, and friendly fire!

Chrono requirements for EVERYONE PLAYING, including the guys that run the field (I know there's several people that were shooting 500+, or at least were claiming that).

Truly random team picking (half the time, the teams are stacked). Coin toss would be simplest.

I currently run my WE PDW maxed out (around 500 equiv with .20's), but I engage only the further targets (half field or further. Closer get dealt with by teammates, or my M9), and shoot semi-only (especially since auto is broken), since I don't have many low weight BB's left (probably about 1k).

Don't bother calling "Surrender" on me, unless you are A) Right by me or B) Shooting 450+ with .20's. I WILL shoot you if I see you, otherwise. I am stubborn, and don't like to surrender. Consider yourself warned.

OK. Mechanically disabled (broken) full auto, check. Over 420 but less than 550 with .20's, check. Only engaging targets over 25 yards away, check. Using sidearm at close range targets, check. Sounds legal to me... But, that SMG barrel must get on your nerves.

In the closing days of WWII, the soldiers in the 101st took a brand new gun, the M2 carbine, (which is simply an M1 carbine with full auto capability) scoped it and created the first real DMR. It had limited range but pin point accuracy. Food for thought.

Rules enforcement. Everybody chrono. Dedicated, impartial game admins. And possibly a private event held there for us.

Acutally, I get 200' torso shots with the PDW at max power (that's a 9" barrel getting 200' range), so the range is great. Still get 125-150' shots at field limits with .23's (but the stock PDW hop is designed for heavier rounds), so the accuracy is actually better than one would think. The short barrel is also nice because I'm able to keep a wide field of view, and change my aim quicker than with a dedicated sniper rifle.

Full auto technically isn't disabled, it's just really screwed up (pull the trigger once, it will fire on its own until the mag is out of gas, or I switch to semi/safe). Not an issue for me, since I never use auto (rarely even use it on AEG's). Been looking at figuring out how to actually permanently disable it, too, though (actually wish I could get a semi-only trigger box or lower receiver).

And since I live so close to the field (~2 miles), I wouldn't mind being a game admin there (I don't really care if I get to play every game or not, either.), especially if it helps people truly enjoy the sport.

My opinon only-If Toxic is really interested in getting TAC and its affiliated players to attend then they need to make it worth while for us to drive to the other side of town, to what by most accopunts is just another DP type Fieldsoft venue full of young players, who have questionable character as far as Calling hits and stealing equipment.TAC Players have come to depend on a very High standard of player, and fluid mil-sim scenarios. I Personaly would take advantage of an invitation with a large discount for fees.TAC brings a lot to the table.
Or we just show up in mass and Kick A-- and take names :twisted:

They did a good Job at Op WF, Had they approached TAC before setting that up..WOW!

I personally am not gonna go back until they finish their new field. They don't have any nets on their property what so ever anymore. Which means people in the safety area, and their cars, can be shot very easily by people playing on the nearby field. No where is safe in this place, so I had to keep my goggles on the entire time even in the "safe" area.

They need to realize the kind of image they are putting forth by half-assing everything.
