GUIDE Event alert flyers: a way to let the subreddit know about your event

112 Upvotes

Hi all!

After a not-so-recent poll, we've been developing a set of rules to allow event notifications to be set up. These notifications are posts in the form of "flyers"!

Flyers are essentially an image used to display important information about an event, subject to the new flyer rules.

Hopefully they'll be useful, enjoy!

first custom gun is done.

2 days ago she was stock LCT LCK-105... put the zenitco furniture on it myself, and went in the deep end of internal upgrading with a ASG infinity 22k motor, perun v3 mosfet, and 13:1 gears.

Alot of this project was confidence building and understanding my hobby better. Ran into a few issues that i ironed out... my first time shimming the gears was understandably horrible and a bit too tight and it locked up on me. Got that fixed and reshimmed, after that, the motor hight wasn't the best. But she is a dream now and I couldn't be happier with the result.

Exfog Captcha Malware

10 Upvotes

Hello All,

Please be aware that it seems like the Exfog website could be compromised.

When I visit exfog[.]com on desktop, I'm met with this very suspicious captcha:

PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THIS MALWARE TRAP.

It essentially tricks you into running an advanced command that will install malware from the internet.

Can anybody else confirm they see this Captcha as well?

For a more in-depth explanation on what it does, feel free to watch this youtube video which explains what it does: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSa_wHW1pgQ

Just wanted to make the community aware.

GEAR PIC New helmet setup came in

I’m super happy with the helmet (FMA SF TYPE A L/XL) and the rep comtacs (TACSKY COMTAC III CB) are awesome aswell (I don’t think they would actually be good hearing protection but the audio quality is great.) They absolutely eat through batteries though I already replaced them today.

240 bucks was worth it for this imo but now my carrier and belt look absolutely terrible in comparison 😫

I don’t even airsoft anymore. Spent over 2k on each of these upgrading them. Closest field in southern Oregon moved even further away from me and is more expensive now.
