This was from another thread. Seems like it would make for a nice sticky to get the message out on how we expect people to behave on the IDPA Forum.

Most of the criticism of the IDPA rules seem to be rooted in the fact that some people are very set in their ways with USPSA. Why can't I shoot 38 super major in Limited? Why can't I run full capacity magazines in production? Why can't I shoot gun X just because it's not on some list? These questions amount to the same thing. They are rules that are specific to that game. If you think they should be changed, don't just sit back and say "I like IDPA except for rule 6.66a subsection 21. So I'm not going to shoot it ever again." Become involved, become a SO, talk to the regional coodinator. Rules don't change because people bitch about them, they change because someone steps up and does something about them.

The original post looked like a legitimate question but has devolved into a "this is a stupid rule" fest. Man up and quit bitchin'! How about discussing the question from within the rules?


It can't be said any better than that.

For those that don't shoot IDPA (either often, much, never or in a long time), why would you post on this thread forum ???

If all you really do is complain about how "they got it wrong"...STAY OUT OF THE IDPA SECTION. All you are doing is pissing in the soup and ruining it for the rest of the crowd.

Let the people that enjoy the sport have a nice place to come to talk about it. It's not too much to ask.
