Part II.
Integrity:
Airsoft can never be a fully competitive sport. The fact that sometimes you cant physically tell if you hit your opponent in most cases makes the previous statement true.
Competition can be achieved with Airsoft, but only if the people involved have a similar level of integrity when it comes to the game rules. If we are to achieve Victory. We will do it with Training, Tactics, and Teamwork. Not by cheating. So in order to win with Teamwork or Tactics it is vital that our members play with honesty. If your SHOT, no matter how light it may feel, you MUST call it. If you see another member of your team take a HIT that he might not of felt, it is your DUTY to let him know. It is unsportsmanlike conduct to call HITS on opposing players or argue the fact, However it is justifiable to ask the opposing player if they are HIT to continue the game.
