    i think..

    I think that some parks should have airport style lockers. it only makes sense. the park can even profit on it. I would definatly leave me keys and other valuables in it.

    Obviously you aren't gonna put your bag in there, but there are some things you really wanna keep safe, I'd do it!

      hmmm

      Someone earlier mentioned a check service. That would be a good idea for big scenario days.

      For team stuff, maybe a couple of attendants in a certain players' area?

      I think the best way if to stage with your team and have someone there to keep an eye on your stuff. That is the most sure way to keep grubby paws off your stuff.

        Thanks Gibby

        Thanks Gibby.

        Ive had some nice stuff stolen, speakers, a tent and a few other things out of my car. A friend stole a battery checker, cost $50 but he gave em a really nice dog. SO its hard to say with friends.

        I just have this bad feeling, after ive upgraded my gun the shiney blue metal will attract a thief. Thieves like shiny metal things.

        I guess the best idea I could think of from looking through things here, would be to put a metal lock box of some sort in your car. If you have a large investment like an Emag. I would say maybe a metal truck tool box if you have a truck and weld metal locks to it. A smaller metal box of some sort for a car and bolt that sucker down.

        Id like to bring my autographed Spplat attack stuff for Tom and Mancow to sign but I just can't. Cause I know a stealer is out there.

        Sorry your just not getting it. Im leaving it home.

          I've never had a problem with theft, but I know it happens. Not a big scenerio player, so I don't know how to take care of that sort of thing, but i do take care of myself when I'm rec-balling.

          I drive a 1991 subaru legacy station wagon and the trunk makes for a nice staging area. I can sit there and eat lunch there too :)

          I have everything sitting in the back there, my paint, extra stuff, etc.. etc.. and I just close it up and lock it when I head off to a game. I toss the key in my pocket, but I should probably get something like a carabiner(sp?) that'll attatch it to my belt or something.

          Basically, No one is getting my stuff unless they break a window, or use a slim-jim, but that's probably not going to happen considering there's field operators and whatnot in the staging area all the time.

          I think the most important thing is just not to be careless.

            Well, what I'm planning to do for Shatnerball is to put my gear in a locked truck box. Paint will probably go inside a styrofoam cooler. As was said before, just make sure to never leave your gear unattended.

              I checked in the AO store for this and didnt see it.

              Wanted to buy it before I mentioned it.

              There is a backpack at Walmart, its huge for $9.99. It has wheels several compartments and a carry handle.

              Its black, grey and blue. Personally I think its indistiguishable from the $50 packs online.
