We'd like to hold a few big events too,

If I was say at Redfox playing paintball (were 7,300 people played last year) but still played backyard paintball and I saw a flyer talking about this amazing group that plays airsoft with tanks and half-tracks and a lot of people I would write the website name down and go home and googled it and become part of the AOSC. Very possible senario an I'm sure if we put those at Battlecat, triggertyme, and maybe paintball central we would get a lot more people then we would just talking about it at school because usually the people at the paintball places are more likely to play airsoft then the people at school not saying not to tell your friends but both would be effective.

2/5 is Ajax. Ajax doesn't 'rule' the AOSC, no one does. .
SteevOLS counts as a rep so that is 3/6 or one half and that is way more than any other team in t he aAOSC plus you guys have the rank of ajax it's not like anybody else has the rank of their squad

SteevoLs backed down as a rep...

Ranks are given at team leaders demand, and when the moderater feels like doing it... Aircross has it too..

Correct me if I am wrong, but last time I checked I thought SteevOLS was only active on the forums because of his role in the ownership of the domain?

Here goes this bitching about the majority again.

When AOSC first started, there are a few reps that belonged to GRAVE; 3 if I'm correct. People like you started all sorts of crap, but did that affect AOSC in any negative ways? No. All AJAX members pay our fees at the game, and we participate just like other players. If being a rep, devoting your own time for the good of airsoft and not getting paid for it, is not honorable for you, then I advise you create your own forums with a complete anarchy.

Here's a solution for you. Get over it.

Are you complaining just to complain? The people designated are doing a great job of maintaining and keeping the AOSC from going rampant. Yes, I had my plug earlier this month, but that was reconciled and everyone is happy. They devote a lot of their free time to ensure everyone is happy and that this site makes a positive name for airsoft in the state of SC.

Apparently, coming to games and staying active on the forums is called "ruling" now. What a logic.

The facts are the facts I was just stating the fact that there are more AJAX reps and there is good reason for that, they got here first also at the games they are just like anyone else minus the expensive gear but on the forums they're not. I'm not trying to piss anyone off but it's the truth

I guess the part where neither Gambler, Diesel, or myself were even on the same team when we became reps doesn't matter. We must have planned this hostile take-over years in advance! AJAX hasn't exactly been around a long time. Maybe, JUST maybe, we sat down a few months ago and hand picked some of the best players in the state who also happened to have the gear, money, and desire to travel to out of state games and invited them all to form a team. If it just so happened that two of those guys were reps, it's a happy accident.

Also, I am not a rep. I don't vote on council issues, I don't kick people out of games... heck, I don't even run chrono or registration anymore! All I do is run the forums because I own them. I paid for the server, I have over 3000 man hours invested in running them, and I'm not about to give away the admin account. It's a thankless job (being a rep), and I got sick of spending more time listening to people complain about things than playing airsoft.

Team "ranks": If you want that set up, try asking instead of complaining. It works wonders.

"Being here first": Uh, we weren't "here first". We STARTED this group.
