Not really

Put a gun down on a table and activate the trigger accidently in fully auto and you get a large volume discharge. In ramping you get just one.

Snap shooting also changes skill levels in both modes

Semantics???
 
1. Am talking strictly about what players want to see on the field...I fully appreciate tha safety elements involved.

2. Snap shooting - ok, I'll buy that, but is it ramping after 2, 3 , 5 , 8, what? Too many intangibles at tha moment...this is just to get a feel for what people want, based on Nick's assertion that players think high ROFs are killing tha game?

That better?:p

hahaha! he got u on that 1.

um ... i went with semi auto only juz kuz i think if u can't get ur fingers that fast then why should u be allowed?

but i don't mind if others use it, more satisfying when u shoot some1 out thats firing faster then u:D

Mr Lambini, I feel a percentage of people care little about the mode or rate of fire, only an organisers ability to enforce it sufficiently enough to create a level playing field for all participants.

Therefore, in the absence of any organiser seemingly possessing the ability to police any of the ROF/Mode rules above is there any chance we could have an option on the poll for 'agitating loaders only'?

Failing that I think Full auto (after 3 semi shots) is the fairest option (in terms of competition) for all.

3 shots then FA - still allows snap shooting of course.

Its a shame that people cant be trusted to just shoot semi

But the important thing is a level playing feild - and capping at 15bps for whatever mode is fair
