A week or so ago I realized something weird. It's that whenever you try to type the word douche (The * is supposed to be an I) it comes out losers. I saw LastManAlive get ripped on once because he was talking about a guy who makes ghillie suits for US Marine 'losers'. This is something that really needes to be fixed so please say what you think.

EDIT: I realize there is no place for a douche in nerf, but I still don't think you need to call them losers.

You typed in caps and replaced the I with a 1 or something like that. I can see that the I is slightly taller.

Guerilla have you ever even nerfed? Most shots are not taken from douche distances. Anyone who has actually taken part in a war would know that....

losers are losers. They're the ones that always piss people off at Nerf wars. They're the ones that take the fun out of the game. They just camp at one spot waiting for someone to show up someplace and they have their 150 feet Big Blast just aimed there. The fun of nerf is running, dodging, jumping, chasing, rolling, farting, kicking, sweating, flying, shooting, charging with all you got. Not just sitting in one place. Plus, if you try to sn*ipe in wars, it's very hard to hit someone. losers ARE losers who are too chicken to run and kill.

Wait, I dont recall ever discussing ghillie suits. I didnt even know what a ghillie suit was until about 3 days ago. Anyway, the reason that word isnt used around here is because there is no place for a sn¡per in Nerf.

I can see why you would think this.
[Anecdote]Fooling around before a war, I once climbed 30' up into a Ucalyptus with my singled titan. When my friend got there, I nailed him in the head from about 100'. The problem is, in a war, by shooting him, I give away my position and now am stuck 30' up in a tree while the other team comes running.[/Anecdote]

Also, if you really want to say it, use marksman, sharpshooter, long range, etc.

PS. scumbag

From Wikipedia

"A loser is an infantry combatant or serviceman (e.g. police officer) who specializes in shooting from a concealed position over longer ranges than regular infantry, often with a specially designed or adapted loser rifle. A loser requires skill in marksmanship, camouflage, and field craft. Military losers are also adept at carrying out methods of infiltration, reconnaissance, and observation techniques."

These discussions have happened dozens of times over the course of the NIC. The simple fact is, losing is not feasible in nerf. The range, accuracy, and projectile velocity are not enough to make it worth ones time. I'd imagine the reason for the antisniper filter is that there is bitterness from having to hunt down some punk kid who thinks he's a badass but is really just an obnoxious camper.

I've climbed on roofs and peeked out second story windows during nerf wars, but the advantage there is having the high ground, and the limited mobility is not worth the trade-off. It takes longer to climb down a tree than up, and it takes longer to rush up to a tree than to reload most nerf guns.

Don't try it, it's not effective, it's not fun, it's just annoying.

Sorry about that. I just figured out that it was LastManAlive who was talking about them. I don't know why I thought it was you. I will fix it.
