Hello all I have been refraining of responding to the bashing that I have been receiving from a member of another forum for as long as this forum has been up. LET ME BE CRYSTAL CLEAR, I HAVE NEVER MET THIS GUY, NOR HAVE I SPOKE TO HIME MORE THAN A HANDFULL OF TIMES. Now the personal attacks are getting out of hand. The field, players that come to the field, and myself have all been personally attacked by this person. He has in the past tried to get me to shut the field down and ordered me not to use any TASO references of face legal actions in the past when he was the TASO rep. Here are just some of his quotes… I wouldn't expect that this other field is run by a psycho, so no worries. 'That' guy further proved it by living up to that description the other day. LOL! (feffering to myself) He has also called me a liar, insain, and many other things… ctaf.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=267houstonairsoft.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10060Most of the inflammatory postings on LSA have been deleted by him, but you can still find some like what was posted today (shown above) So here is what I am asking, please go to lonestarairsoft.com sign up. be respectful but tell everyone there what kind of a field is in temple, be kind but if I have treated you with respect let them know, don’t get into a yelling contest but let people know that what is going on there is wrong. Also I will start offering a discounted yearly pass for players. The pass will be a one time yearly ticket to the field to help cover legal fees resulting in the future actions that will be taken against anyone baselessly attacking the field vie slander or deffermation. I have tried to mend bridges, I have tried to be kind, and I have reached out to TASO/NTA/SAAC and others prior to this action. I have nothing against the members of lonestarairsoft.com in general. its just time this sillyness stops. It’s not helping the sport or hobby. Thanks for your time Dave De Morrow

To all that view this please be cognisant of what you do post. Verbal threat towards others, saying you suck for doing this does no help. If you want to help in anyway post something positive. IMO I would just stay away from LSA postings, post field reviews in other websites. If it has the means of being censored in one place, why bother? There are more than those forums/fields out there. But if you do choose to post in LSA be positive about things, there is no point in getting into a flame war with keyboard jockeys/warriors. Dave already said it, hopefully another will chime in too. The old saying 3 times it sticks in your head. I already posted something on a forum, with attempts to get the event pushed off. Be tactful about things.

Poo I 100% agree with you. It is not my intent to be rude, mean, or disrespectful to anyone. Just show the positive side of CTAF.
Kill them with kindness and the truth.
Also I challenge nearly any LSA player to come up here and see the field and community that has been built here for free. Come and see what AW has been railing against.

I WAS going to post something about this bs, but I gotta take out the trash (more important task). So I'll just say this, "DON'T FEED THE TROLLS!"

You already have challenged an LSA member, remember? Dont forget about that free pass you promised me a while back! EDIT: would the "lsa members, come check out the field for free" thing work for my dad also? If it does, you owe us free passes, and one soda

You are the one stirring things up today on the LSA board. ;D
Yes as I have told you on here and NTA you and your dad have a free pass for any skirmish. Can't do it for the OP. I'm not running that.
Man you really don't listen. JK

his response to a posting....
This will go nowhere fast, as there are plenty of people that can post their opinions for their 'side', especially when they don't know all the facts. Closed.
if anyone wants to know all the facts i have opened everything up and am not against answering any questions about this problem. you can come to the field, call me or e-mail or text me.
everything is a open book. try having AW answer anything. all he will do is pull down the post, send you a nasty gram, and lock the thread. what is he hiding? the truth thats all.
he has been trying to keep people in the dark about temple from day one, now ask yourself a question.... is this a good roll model for the airsoft comunity?
so much for free speech

I dont necessarily support him, but he answered questions I had. Even if they were biased answers.

great, what proof did he have?
he called me a psycho on a open forum today, would you like to know why?
friday evening i called barry gilbert who owns LSA (512-773-1937, openly posted on the internet when you do a LSA web search) and ask if we could work together to end any lingering resentment between myself and LSA. i started out the conversation with "hello my name is dave demorrow and i am extending a oliv branch to you and LSA". we talked for some time and agreed to look at turning the corner. Mr gilbert said that he would talk to AW and see if we could tone down the words. if you have any questions go ahead and call mr gilbert.
for this i get called a psycho.
funny

Guys, Awolv has no control over the "Chat box" on LSA.
Remember, do not go aggressive, and be polite. Just promote Dave's field. We don't want other people seeing us as offensive bastards/giving Temple airsoft a bad image. Otherwise "God" here will smite you.

Thanks everyone for the great support. My phone has been ringing off the hook, I have got e mails and pms all positive.
I guess he has been a jerk in my opinion for a long time. I just got off the phone from a forum a guy that left airsoft in 2003 due to this person. He (the caller) is getting back into airsoft this year due to the temple community.
Thanks for the help everyone.
Also thanks for you guys that have given to the legal defense fund, I will be using it soon.
Dave
