SocialSkirmish.net is a new initiative from the people behind Everything-Airsoft.com and as they put it in the blurb on the new site

socialskirmish.net, the internets latest and greatest social network made by airsofters for airsofters. All the features you love about the internets biggest social-networking websites are available at socialskirmish.net. Sign up now and personalize your space with pictures of your weapons and loadouts, videos of your events and skirmishes and connect to friends and teams from all over the world. Have fun.

So, in short, it’s like Facebook, but just for airsofters.  Which might make you wonder, “Why not just stick with Facebook?”  After all there are plenty of airsoft groups on there, like the Stirling Airsoft page and you can still keep in touch with all of your non-airsofting friends as well.

The benefit of SocialSkirmish.net comes from being able to connect with other airsoft players from around the world, as well as with those from the UK who are already familiar with Stirling Airsoft.  I’ve only been using the service for a couple of days since the site launched, but have already had a few interesting chats with airsoft players from as far afield as New Zealand and America, as well as connecting with a few of the other UK-based airsofters who have been quick to sign up.

It’s certainly never going to replace Facebook as the main social network site for keeping in touch with friends from around the world, but as a way of connecting with other airsofters as well as sharing photos from airsoft games and news of upcoming events, it’s a great deal better than some of the other sites I’ve seen recently that have tried to do the same thing.  The site seems to be gaining new members quite quickly and it’ll be interesting to see how much it continues to grow and develop over the coming weeks and months.

If you’re interested, you can head over to SocialSkirmish.net and sign up to begin creating your own profile and start connecting with other airsoft players.  You can find the Stirling Airsoft profile here and there is also a team group for Stirling Airsoft that you can join here.

And while you’re signing up for new web services, don’t forget about Stirling Airsoft on Twitter where you can keep up to date with news (and general ramblings) from Team Stirling as well as live updates of the scores during airsoft events like this weekend’s Op. Silent Eye – England Vs Scotland game.

Stirling Airsoft now has a Twitter profile where we’ll be posting updates about upcoming airsoft games and training events as well as “live-tweeting” the scores during games, which we’ll be doing for the first time during next month’s Op. Silent Eye, England Vs Scotland game from Catterick, so even if you can’t make it to the game you’ll be able to keep track of how the teams are doing throughout the weekend.

If you’re already a Twitter user all you have to do is visit our profile at twitter.com/StirlingAirsoft and click the “Follow” button underneath our logo to start following all our tweets.  We’ll try to follow as many of our players as we can in return, but if we miss out on following you back, just send us a tweet starting with @StirlingAirsoft so that we know you’re there, or leave a comment here on the blog with your Twitter name.

If you aren’t already signed up to Twitter, it’s easy enough to join just by going to twitter.com and following the steps to create a new profile then start looking for interesting people to follow.

Let us know what else you’d like to see from us in our updates as well.  Do you want to see more links for Stirling Airsoft videos and photos from events?  Or news from kit suppliers about new airsoft guns and gear?  Tell us what you’d like to see and we’ll do our best to oblige.

I’m TheKenatron and I’ll be working here on the blog to bring you the latest news and details about upcoming events, games and training days from Stirling Airsoft.
I’ll also post links to some of the airsoft video clips that we’ve made over the last few years playing airsoft, along with photos from our events that have been posted in the Stirling Airsoft Photo Gallery.  If you’ve got any photos from Stirling events, or you’ve seen any airsoft videos on the web that you want to share with us, go ahead and drop a link to them in the comments at the end of this post and from time to time I’ll post a round up of the best ones for you all to check out.

I’ll be working with some of the guys from Stirling’s Training Wing on a series of posts with tips and tactics for airsofters, sharing useful advice on tactical squad deployment, Close Quarters Battle tactics and plenty more besides.  We won’t be giving everything away though.  If you really want to learn the kind of practical airsoft tactics we’ll be talking about you’ll want to attend the Stirling Airsoft Training Days, where you can put the theory into practice.

From time to time, we’ll also be have interviews with (and the occasional guest posts from) some of the other guys behind Stirling Airsoft.  I’m looking forward to catching up with Ben and Keith to find out more about what they enjoy about airsoft and their perspectives on the way Stirling’s ongoing series of All Out War games are proceeding.  If we’re lucky I might even be able to get Matt to put in an appearance to share some details about his favourite bits of airsoft kit and to explain why one man needs so many airsoft guns
