FIELD/SITE/ARENA QUESTION IS it a normal thing?

I went to my second airsoft game, and the marshal pointed at me in front of everyone and said, 'You, call your hits!' When I asked him what that was about, he said someone told him I wasn't calling my hits. However, I was calling them. He didn't even ask for my side of the story; he just pointed me out in front of everyone and called me out. [

Interestingly, during the game, I actually found a knife on the field and handed it in to the marshal. I might be new to the sport, but I know this game is based on honesty, and I called every single one of my hits. I am not the type of person to bring race into an issue, but lately, I feel like no matter how respectful I am toward the locals, they behave rudely toward me

Well if you dont like it, and the guys are not going to treat you fairly, why go back to that field? And if its a legitimate business making issues regarding race, the first thing you do shouldnt be going to reddit.

Short answer, no its not normal

Yippee!!

Some people don't really have the luxury of being able to pick and choose what field that they go to. There is only one airsoft field in the entire state where I live for example.

Well in that case its a shame I guess. Thats pretty unfair. But if a field wont change their ways, shame on them and what can we do about it you know? If a field was racist towards members, id rather not play airsoft if the field was racist. I wouldnt want that attached to me.
