I need help here my fellow airsofters....... I recently got an e-mail from a fellow player who looked at our site, then e-mailed me the following............ YOU GUYS SUCK DICKThis is totally un-cool and not very friendly as a whole. His name was Brandon Weberg and his e-mail was vincint21@yahoo.com As you all know we are a team that are out for the sport. And we dont and are not this way to anyone, this was un-professional and this guy is a real jerk for sending this to us. Anyone know who this loser is. ? as a note the address to our site is. www.geocities.com/team762 check our site out, although not a professionally designed site we try to make it fun. Help a fellow player out, who is this guy.

Heya Janus, good to hear from you again. Can't say that I know the person who emailed you, but I can say I think you're probably taking the moron's email a little bit too much to heart. There are plenty of dweebs like that around and I wouldn't waste my time worrying about what they have to say. Just delete the email and rock on wit' yo bad self. PS: Still haven't received those field pictures you said you'll send me *hint hint*

Yeah, I agree with Hado. It was probably some little 12 year old who has never even seen an Airsoft gun.

Not taking it to heart, just pisses me off. There has been a lot of SPAM sent to us, plus over 50, YES FIFTY entries into our yahoo guest book.
THANK GOD we have to approve submissions before they are actually posted.
This asshole has attempted top overload our guest book, along with contacting GOBLIN trying to get him to make some bogus trades and such.
Just wanted to get to know this guy, he is pond scum

Um, well it involves verifying that the email address of the sender is active - that's key and best done from a bogus account and not via your own PC or IP. Then, sign the offending party up on mailing lists that help them pursue their interests (in this case the person Janus is dealing with appears to have a tendency for interesting sex acts - mwahahaha). This is best done from a PC far removed from you and your usual IP address (or that of any of your friends.......library, cyber cafe, school?). If you pick the right mailing list, it will fill an email inbox in no time as they offer the address to others. This is just one fun thing, there are others.........not that I've used any of them ;D

Hmmm, MiA is not responsible for any illegal acts preformed by its members!

Thanks for the ideas all,.....
But I think that this loser is some punk that is way too abused by his uncle, so he takes it out on honest people.
Oh Well.....
Hey as a note, when is the next BIG Michigan airsoft event going to be.
Check out our site in a bit, I and Goblin, and Brass and CarlosH are all planning something... Maybe we in the MIA need to plan the BIGGEST and WILDEST airsoft event in Michigan and the tri state area's history for this summer......
Who ever is game e-mail goblin at meenlock@core.com and lets get something set up.

Check out the Events section of the message board here for some upcoming events. The BIG one should be Operation: Northern Blast, set for April 6th. But there are also 2 other events a little closer to Battle Creek. Operation: Northern Blast will also include MiA's first Airsoft Raffle! Tickets are still available and the prizes are great! Would be good to see you and the rest of the team up there.
