Ahhhh, they look so happy together toasting on other people's money don't they - and yet sables wants people to believe he has minimal association with barnett .... how the fuhk can sables be believed when he does stuff like that with barnett and also act as a money conduit for barnett taking the staargate ticket money - actions will always speak louder than mere words especially when those words come out of the mouth of sables.
It should come as no surprise that sables comes across as an inveterate liar who's only concern is himself.

It was Mandy and Dim that hijacked the (secret retirement) fund raiser Facebook group for Bully with the aim to soapbox and demand my removal from the UKPSF after questioning their antics. They failed, yet dirtied the group.
Barnett will stoop to any level because he has no boundaries, he is a master of creating smoke and mirrors in order to manipulate people. When he is held accountable his flash hardman act is quickly substituted with a Albert Steptoe play the victim mentality, poor old me, wife left me boo hoo. This is just an act, afterwards he is straight back to creating trouble for people.
IF YOU ASSOCIATE WITH THIS SCUMBAG THEN EXPECT TO BE TREATED AS SUCH
This forum has power, its united everyone that has been burned by Shoreline Events and its Awesome leader. This thread holds value, all the claims to it all being made up piff is not true. Timtanic is doomed to sink soon. Let us not forget who sided and supported him during the final hours. They need to be held accountable too.

It's quite refreshing to:
a) See more and more people opening their eyes to the way he works
b) See those that you know have kept quiet over the years finally getting things off their chest.
There are still some that vehemently defend TB, but even that can change in time.
I think it is appropriate to show people just what he thinks of the players that buy tickets to his events. The following is a screenshot, and quoted extracts, form a post he made against Dave Thatcher, when he hijacked a group dedicated to organising a dinner and presentation for Steve Bull after he had stood down from the UKPSF.
Extract 1 - ' Having players on the committee is ridiculous. Talk about the tail wagging the dog. How can a paintball player possibly understand the complexities and challenges faced by paintball company owners. Commercially, every paintball business owner wants to maximise profit - putting the very customers we are all trying to profit from in charge of the game os absurd. By all means consult players or give the impression of consulting players if you feel the need - but putting customers in charge of some areas of governance of our industry is ridiculous'
Extract 2 - 'Democracy is over rated. I just want a functioning representative body with knowledgeable people at the helm I trust, safe pairs of hands - we don't have that right now....and never will with a 19 man committee.'
In his eyes' Paintball Players' are too stupid to understand the complexities of his business. He really does believe he is superior to everyone of his customers. I don't suppose it crosses his mind that paintball players are also professional people from all walks of industry.
He wanted to enact a UKPSF that was akin to a dictatorship, with his own recommendations. Luckily none of the committee took any notice and they are still around today, despite his assertion that UKPSF wouldn't exist 12 months later.

Did you see how he referred me as that "Thatcher character" after what he did to my company. At the time I was attending UKPSF meeting at my own expense for the good of paintball. As WarFighters is moving out of paintball I stood down from the role after a year. I was only supposed to be acting as VC for six months.
I never made any attacks on Dim in public until this thread started, I never invented anything, all my statements are true to my word and are backed up by hard fact. If you read the history of it on this thread I was very much the victim of the Shoreline Machine.
Dim wanted control over the UKPSF, he wanted the people on the committee to be controlled by him. The stupid thing about his post was that both he, and alleged boyfriend mandy had failed to renew their UKPSF membership.
Tim Barnett, what a joke.
I can only hope that one of his staff is reading this to him, so he can post later on his Facebook page about how much this doesn't bother him, and how awesome he is just being Tim.

Dave/Mick, I think it's obvious barnett is a control freak (with a capital 'F') which is of course consistent with his megalomania but he's now blown any chance of holding any positions of responsibility within our sport other than those within his own head.
As is evidenced by that letter above, he really doesn't realise just how dreadfully arrogant he comes across otherwise he wouldn't have written those points in the way he did.
We really cannot ever allow him to assume any position of responsibility in our sport/industry and if he tries again, I'm pretty sure the guys here on p8ntballer.com will make sure he doesn't.
We are extremely lucky in that we have a lot of the industry guys as members/visitors and so not much gets past them but if it does, I'll tell them anyway.
Our player-base is where the real power lies and not with people like barnett though I'm pretty sure he'd say otherwise .... Luckily, he's gonna be ending his tenure in our sport pretty soon hopefully.

As the saying goes, I'm not a gynaecologist but I do know a c*nt when I see one.....
Theres a lot of players and teams been ostrosised through the years, they have litraly done nothing wrong, hes stired it up between teams and players, some believe it all, others dont, some just decide to plod on and say nothing to keep the peace.
D10 Super six game ( the second one.) when the site owner suddenly decided that frostbite couldnt be used due to it marking trees, or some such bollocks.
But the paint favored by TB, was sold by Andy S, by chance Andy had a van full of the favoured paint. teams could use, that went down really well...NOT...
I know SW told him to do one, and they went and purchased boxes and boxes of frostbite, the lads loaded up and went in to play with it all day.
What was he gonna do, throw the 15 angry jocks off site. Hes never done that in his life, he dosent have the bollocks.
SW have never done anything that hes asked, the guys do there thing, they do what they want, thats why he hates them with a passion, and thats why they hate him, and always have.
These are my thoughts, and certainly not the thoughts of SW, but im sure the lads would all agree.
Ps..
This goes way back, i joined a team ( im not nameing names, People will know or they wont, its no biggy ) we were running about with some top class scenario players, real stealthy *******s, Lee Wickham was in the team with TB tagging along, ( really a hanger on for the ride.) i mean he really wasnt that great a player, always got his ass kicked and sulked like a petchelent child.
I used to friendly fire him, just for the crack, i did on several occasions.
Anyways.
He started kicking a few ideas about soon after super 6 started really well, towards the end kids going Free came into the fold, basically if you brought a child to play any super 6 event that child would play for Free... Dead easy, and a good idea. ( obviously someone elses idea.)
There was a game in YPC Charlie and the chocolate factory, ( ideal for a budding young scenario player.) also a super 6 game, so i text TB to see if the kids go free thing stood for this game, as i was going to try and get my youngest involved, i receved a text back from TB saying " its not my game ".
I thought you know what im not even going to go through you, I will go through Andy Sables, as it was his place.
So i nipped in and spoke to Andy on the saturday.
Andy said yea sure, bring your son along, he can play for free, just sort him with the paint, so thats what i did.
TB never spoke to me all day, i just thought fcuk it and blanked him, however later he turned round and said, how did your young lad enjoy the game, i said yea fine, TB went on to say how he had sorted the free ticket out, and it was him that had spoken to Andy.... I called Bull ****, I said to him how do you work that out, ive been and spoken to Andy on the saturday and i got it sorted myself, as you were a been a bell end... TB turned and walked away.
A couple of days later i was then branded a free loader, and orstrosised.
Cracking stuff.
Funny thing though, when i got in the house in the Sunday afternoon, we both were greeted by my daughter and the dog, she was wanting to see if her brother had been brused by the nasty paintballs, a conversation took place, my young lad piped up and said mum.!!! Tims a wanker, her responce was, yes son, i know.
