Overt commercialism is removed except for the vendors forum which is specifically for such promotion.

Any one who visits here with any regularity will soon get a feel for the odd covert proselytisers and apply due circumspection to the value of their posts.

Historically on here this has only been a real issue for us when the occasional pretendy/straight pull AR wars break out.

The main reason that AR Wars tend to break out is when the administrator of the site winds people up with terminology then locks the thread.

Saying that people do get very play ground with mine is better than yours, but that happens across the spectrum no matter what the subject matter is.

Maybe people should treat others, their selected disciplines and firearm with respect rather than with contempt.

I think you will find if you bother to look that the pretendy AR wars started on here long before I chose to use the terminology.

I think you'll find that it still doesn't help matters and causes major disruption in otherwise on-topic threads 90% of the time.

I think if you refreshed your understanding of your own forum rules then you would not have to Be reminded that you cannot advertise in any thread apart from for sale, which you then moved to shooting related wanted.

Why not just drop the terms you know wind people up?

Here we go again, why do you have to keep using that "pretendy" word....Dromia.... well you don't when it applies to something you shoot.

Quote I'm shooting a Mini 14 just now but fortunately mine isn't quiet as ugly as that. So thats a pretendy Mini 14 then...
