Enforcement of Rules

Ugly

<div class="IPBDescription">Line in the sand and how far can it be crossed</div>Now, just for the sake of argument, if I happen to win my class at a match and somebody complains that I have illegal mod on the guns that I have been using and they raise a stink about it:<br />
<br />
Who judges what is right and what is wrong?<br />
<br />
Who touches my guns (no one without my permission)?<br />
<br />
What if someone is doing that just to be a d**k?<br />
<br />
Is money put up for each complaint?<br />
<br />
Do I get the money for the aggravation and for having my weapons touched ('cause I know my <br />
equipment is legal)?<br />
<br />
If someone complains just to complain (who would do such a thing?) will they be banned or charged <br />
more for the trouble they cause?<br />
<br />
A lot of this is going to happen and will have to be addressed.<br />
<br />
I want to know what my rights as an accused will be: can I pass judgement of some kind or a fine on a false accuser?<br />
<br />
Enquiring minds want to know. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/innocent.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

We'll just give you KP duty for a match or two!! <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/devil.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':devil:' /> <br />
<br />
In all seriousness, it is way too early to start speculating how any of this will occur. I see a lot of overreaction on the SASS wire and here on the Hitching Post. At the local level, we have a lot of latitude in what we choose to allow and I won't be pushing for strict compliance immediately if it does pass. I know folks will do their best to comply and we'll cut them some slack until we see how it all shakes out. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':rolleyes:' />

Like Denny said, It's to early to know if this will be adopted or not.<br />
<br />
If it is, the enforcement of the new MOds rules will fall to the Major Match Directors and Range Masters.<br />
Now, as of the TG Meeting, rules regulating who can protest are now in place. The Shooter may protest a call made against them, but no one else can protest calls, or non calls. There is also the question of Home rule that will enter into play here.<br />
<br />
All Matchs, both major and local have the right to use home rules---AS LONG AS THOSE RULES ARE ANNOUNCED, to all shooters at the match. Don't be suprized if some matchs choice to exercize that right in the near future.<br />
<br />
As to how enforcement will go, we'll have to wait and see. It's my belief that fee's, just like protest fees will be put in place. I also think they will be high enough (in dollars) to discourage anyone from ytrying to use the rules to throw off a competitors game. <br />
<br />
that is, if this gets excepted. Being that it is a RULE Change--it will take a Super Majority vote for exceptance (2/3's or greator) according to current SASS rules.
