Allegedly (well according to Barnett) flag raiders have asked snoreline to return next year. With everything that's happened, it begs the question: are they blind and stupid?? Or just willfully ignorant of the stunts that tb pulls?? If it's the former hopefully they see the light before they get stung too, if it's the latter then....I guess you reap what you sow.

I've been out of the game a while, but I used to play with a team associated with dim Barnett. However, everything that has gone on has made me seriously regret any association that I had with snoreline. The team in question to this day still support him and his business, and I can't help but feel sorry for them, but if after everything that has occurred they can't see the light and distance themselves from him, then as I said above you reap what you sow.

I know it won't really mean much coming from one person who isn't really playing any more, but I just wanted to say thanks to Robbo and everyone on here for doing their utmost to open peoples eyes to the damage that snoreline are doing to our sport, hopefully it won't be long until it's no longer a problem

barnett has proved time and time again that he will lie, deceive and distort to cover up what's really going on with him or his business.
He seems incapable of establishing a consistent grasp of the truth and reverts to lying whenever he sees fit.
I don't think for one second that barnett will be teaming up with Flag Raiders again to co-promote another event next year.
There will be too many wheels turning in the background to suggest barnett's gonna be back in Canada next year.
The problem for barnett is, screwing Gino has consequences both sides of the Atlantic and I think barnett will now start finding out how our industry can work sometimes.

I prefer when I'm proved right as against being proved wrong, nothing too strange there.
However, in some cases, being proved right brings with it a sense of disbelief in the way some low-lifes function.
I can't really say too much yet but when I can, you can have the lot and when you read it, you'll be shaking your head in the same way I did.
It's as loathsome as it is treacherous - and yet, this thread should have taught us all that people like barnett don't operate under the same convention as most of us.
I'm not sure why this type of personality flaw is so prevalent with these people but when I get the green light to go public with this, I'll let you all know.

He is always shouting how he organised an event in Croatia. Does this sound like an event?
Ask the German players for their feedback as they will no longer attend his events.... He asked them what style of games and where they would like to play. The players then had to walk 15 mins to each game zone in 40 degree heat kitted up. There was no site preparation and thats why he used the runway as a safe zone as it was so far away from anything. I also like the beach landings in the video's the players got shot as soon as they jumped off the boats thats why their hands were up.

I would also suggest you contact the owner of the site used for Tango Down

They had to close one of the buildings they were using as a kill house as the floor became too slippery and a player hit the wall with a lot of force hurting his wrist. It does not look like the site owner knew he was using non clear paint as he asked his staff to wipe the walls down with cloths. On the Sunday the site owner turned up to see what tim had done. Tim then asked his marshals to pack up quickly and leave.

He really does not have a clue what so ever how to run an event. The prison game he has planned will just be dangerous as the floors will be too slippery. Also the site maybe or is being used for public tours at the moment i don't think they'll like the site covered in coloured paint as

This year game in Croatia was total disaster...lot of civilians walking around without any protection, taking photos, speaking with in game players, etc...he didn't even come before the game to see the site and prepare the game, he used only prepared few things on the chart...after party on the beach...few guys with beer in hands...no food, no nothing...when he organize CtDIII on my island in Croatia, it was quite a nice game, but only because of the site...isolated island, original military environment, zodiacs, food, sea, sun...everything was perfect...but, now when I get back to the game, it was awfull...no imagination, no tactics, no nothing...players run from position to position, attack and defend, run and gun...I am looking on that as a airsoft game producer, there was no scenario at all...a kid could run that kind of games he is running...

For people who "ignore the haters", "don't do internet bunfights" and "put their heads down and crack on", snoreline seem to have more than a passing interest in this thread: three members of shoreline staff deleted me off Facebook since I posted this morning, including the 'great' man himself ...I'm not sure how I'll be able to get over this massive upset (y)

Lets start talking about his older events

Holembush game where he ended up with a nail stuck in his head because he set off a huge pyro on the roof of a wooden building..
Yes like thats going to end well. Player inside the church fell over with a mk5 exploding in his hand due to the shock of the explosion.

Zombieland what a great game that was... Totally disappointed in the game play as he was boasting how the rides were going to be on while playing. Then just before the event sorry we can't do that. Also one of his staff burnt a kid while messing around. Not to mention the massive list of issues while in game. Want food there no problem walk into the middle of the game zone with your mask on then hope your the lucky one to get what you want as most didn't.
Lets not even talk about the clean up of the site.

Should we talk about Tippmann Challenge 2012?
Yes why not... Due to a computer glitch 800 players got booked into a site that can handle a most 300-400. Found out through a mate in the army they love him now... The amount of injured foreign players he left abandoned at the hospital that couldn't speak a word of English with no money. Seems like a trend as he left the site in such a mess the mod had to cancel training there until they could get a cleaning crew in.

I'd love to know how he sold tickets to the same site for a game the year later as he had been banned for a number of reason inc safety/mess and more. How convenient that the MOD needed the site and thats why it got moved to holembush... Even tho my mates regiment got offered senny as no one was using it that weekend.

Rant over. I'm just fed up of the moron and won't be attending his games again. He's had enough of my money. Don't worry Dim i'm not on any of your email lists or facebook groups as my team use to buy all the tickets together.
