1. Team Black's usual violation is that nearly every member, and especially their team leaders, is a zombie player who rarely admits being hit. Opposing players and teams usually complain to the marshals that Team Black players almost always ignore multiple direct hits on their torso or any part of their body and that they never stop playing unless a marshal verbally calls them out individually. Even when a marshal stands beside a Team Black member and sees him being hit with multiple shots, he will continue playing unless the marshal tells him directly that he has been hit already. It used to be that only the veteran team members and team leaders acted this way but their new members who first played honestly and admitted hits voluntarily early in the year now do not do so. In June 2008, a playing marshal (Stinger) announced to all the Team Black players he will no longer play against one of the Team Black members because he kept ignoring multiple hits on his torso and still kept trying to shoot another player after already being hit.
2. Team Black's non-playing members and their inactive players watching from the sidelines usually coach active player members how to defeat their opponents on the field by pointing out positions of opposing players and giving advice to nearby Team Black members.
3. That Sunday, before they started playing, a marshal (DaGrinch) already warned the entire Team Black to play safely and shoot carefully because they would be playing against young teenagers. During the second game, they assaulted a base defended by four kids and 1 adult with a 2-to-1 advantage by standing up in the open, shooting non-stop and closing the distance to defenders. When the defenders had already been hit and had raised their hands, a marshal (Scalper) told all players to check fire and cease fire but Team Black continued to advance, overkill, and hurt their opponents. It was only after the marshal was forced to shout loudly to stop shooting and that the game was over, that the Team Black players ceased fire.
4. The marshals announced to the Team Black leaders that their players were in violation of the gamesite rules by ignoring the marshals' calls and by playing in an unsafe manner that hurt other players. This is what the marshal (Scalper) said: "Team Black, sinabihan na kayo na hit na yung kalaban nyo, na mag-check fire at cease fire, pero di kayo tumigil bumaril. Nakakasakit na kayo. Pag nag-complain yung ibang teams laban sa inyo, sige kayo." The Team Black leaders said nothing to the marshals. In fact, the other team that they had shot excessively wanted to stop playing already.
5. Team Black then packed up and began to leave the gamesite. They told the gamesite manager (DaGrinch) that they would not pay the gamesite fee. When another marshal (Scalper) asked the Team Black leader known as "Pong" if they had really decided not to pay the gamesite fee, he confirmed it. When the marshal forewarned him that this incident would be posted on the Web, he said it was okay with him.
Because of all their violations over the course of several months, after several scoldings and altercations with players and marshals, and after already giving Team Black several chances to upgrade their behavior and style of play but without improvement, and with this final incident of cheating, dishonesty, unsafe airsoft practices, unsportsmanlike and ungentlemanly conduct, insubordination and refusal to submit to the rulings of the marshals, and refusal to pay the gamesite fee, it is the decision of Band of Brothers to permanently ban Team Black from playing at Fort Magsaysay and on any other airsoft events or gamesites under its management.
This announcement will be posted on the website of Fort Magsaysay Gamesite and on various airsoft forum websites in the Philippines. Band of Brothers hereby reiterates its commitment to ensure safety, honesty, and fair play for all the players and visitors at their airsoft gamesite/s.
