Modern Warfare 2 page heating up
 

It's getting to be quite active all of a sudden. I think we need to keep an eye on it, as a couple of the weapon reference pics had been replaced with airsoft replicas (M4A1 and MP5K that I can see) that I've just changed back out for pics of the real things. I like airsoft as much as the next guy, but if we already have pictures of the real thing, I think those would be preferable.

I think as the release date approaches, more and more fans will come in to add shit and the recent trailer was pretty good

I agree, the use of airsoft toys being used on the site instead of the real thing doesn't help the impression of some that this site is bloated with obnoxious kids.

We could add new mods and maybe designated Catigory mods? you know like a mod who's primarily on Video games or Anime. I know that we have mods who prefer to work on one subject or another. lets just make it official.

lol somebody wants a promotion..........


seriously now, sounds like a decent idea.

I'd recommend we lock out Anonymous users, at least for now.

I have to admit that I personally have almost given up on the video game pages, because so many of them are done by kids who have no sense of aesthetics or grammar.

That would help and it would let us know who to thump with a cluebat.

I swear that i will not simply go viking and run through the section with the deletion ax and torch. :)

What an I saying I know I would remove alot of bad pages and frankly tick off alot of people who have made no effort in their pages. At least I have tried to get in Weapon pictures and links to all the weapons. Frankly IRL I am tired of cleaning up people's shit (Literally) and am getting sick of people messing up a communal hobby space.

I concur on this.

So do we want to have the page locked so that only registered users can mod the MW2 page or do we go as far as locking out everyone but admins?


I ask because we have new users who have not gotten the message about how things work on this site. They are posting things like Airsoft guns insted of MPM's Real weapons( in some cases uploading over them).

Yes this is an ongoing issue. What I wish is when ppl register to the site, the admins have to review them, ask them questions about the basics of firearms to test them so we don't get dumb shits posting whatever they want. And make it so that you have to log in to make a post, no more anonymous posters

I agree with Matt. We should lock that page from anons. That should fix it.

Made a minor edit to your post. You really gotta learn how to swear the way adults do. And by that, I mean that you need to stop doing it unnecessarily.

The SA Pro Modle is still an airsoft prop.

In my opinion no gun image is better than having some toy airsoft gun image.

Airsoft sort of de-legitimizes the site.

You know I was the guy who figured out it was a Pro and I promptly found a REAL picture of one that matched the gun in the game, but some prick came in and replaced it with the airsoft version. I don't know if it was because it was a GunsAmerica image or because that person was a prick, but at one time there was a real gun pic for the Pro.

I'm gonna try to reverse the airsoft picture for the pro.

Another airsoft M4 has been put up on the M4A1 section. Reverting again... :mad:

In fact, I think I found the exact one he used on another site, too!
Look at the name of the file here: http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title...cs-26-sir0.png
Now look at the product number of the AEG here: http://www.icsbb.com/eicsbb/page4.as...um=2&picid=730
I'm offended that he seemingly thought at least one of us wasn't keen enough to notice. Of course, the seemingly nonexistent gas tube beneath the SIR is also a tell-tale sign...

I'll be glad when this game finally comes out. Hopefully people like ShootinPutin187 (who put the airsoft pic up) will forget about the page then.

personally I say make it a rule that we are to have no Airsoft images unless it's a weapon that we don't have an image of that model of firearm. I'm not talking about modifications to firearms like grips or different stocks i'm talking about the base factory fresh weapon. I say this as my Mossberg and Ruger 10/22 look nothing like how they left the factory. While i have friends who play airsoft and i do use it for training purposes I'm totally against it on this site.

I completely agree. I love airsoft and AEGs, but like was said on the discussion page, using airsoft replica pics makes the site look unprofessional.

So the concensus among Admin and long term regular users is that there are to be no Airsoft images and the ones we have now are just placeholders until we can get photographs of real firearms to replace them.

If so then could MPM or one of the other mods please make a note in the forum rules if they haven't already.

I don't even think air-soft should be used as a placeholder.
(unless there is definitive proof that the gun used actually was an airsoft gun)

Yeah, I concur.

Um... M21 EBR?
http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title...fare_2#M21_EBR

Is there a such thing?

According to the wiki of the game

Spartan/Excaliber,
As far as I can tell from hanging out on M14 forums there is no such thing as an M21EBR. the weapon in that game is just an M14 in a Sage Stock. We really need to remove that Airsoft M14 from the MW2 page and put back the real M14 in a Sage Stock. As far as Shootingputin goes the forum rules are against him putting up Airsoft junk and what are just mods of weapons we have images of the real thing.

I've placed an order for the prestige edition. Coming in 3 days!!!

3 days for you? For me, it's tomorrow

I have changed the airsoft picture to a picture of a real tacti-lol M14 picture.

is there a way to find yournamehere's pic of the actual springer pro that looks like the in game model and not the airsoft prop?
