CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

Re: CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

I've been on a self-imposed boycott of that cookie cutter show for years (every episode is the same) but I just set my DVR to record the episode you referenced.

Every episode: Find dead body, bumble fuck around, violate the 4th amendment, harass people, collect sperm, then falsely interrogate somebody, and then scooby-doo ending.
 
Re: CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

I have to agree - very cookie cutter. Kind of like a soap operas. I can pick up in most any show and figure out where they are at figuring who the guilty party is by the music in the background.
 
Re: CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

Pretty sure it was in the context of 'some guy trying to learn how to be an urban sniper by visiting snipershide, you should check it out' and supposedly there is a screen shot of the webpage in the scene where its mentioned. It was briefly discussed in the shoutbox last night.

I watched it today. Sounded like they were talking about this site.

Yep, you can bet if they mentioned the Hide it wasn't in a positive context.
Those shows have done nothing but push their agendas ever since way back in the "Lou Grant" days.
 
Re: CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

NCIS did something similar a couple of years back. I reckon they do it in the belief it adds to their show's realism but the boys at NCIS screwed the pooch.

They sent a staffer to "the Internets" to do some research on Marine sniper jargon. He/she went to Sniper Central and came across a post from one of their mods, who had just bought a Bravo 51. He mentioned that he was naming his new rifle "Kate," which was the same name he'd given his M40 when he was in the Corps. So the story that made it to the show was that "Kate" was the nickname that all Marine snipers traditionally gave their rifles.

The very next day, mall ninjas in forums across the known universe were bragging that they'd named their rifle "Kate" because it was a Marine sniper tradition.

This cannot be good.

Next thing you know the next gun control bill that's in committee will be using this site to show how anyone can learn to be a sniper from the internet.

Not good.

Sweet!

Lucky you Frank.

Hope it doesn't turn out like Paladin Press's <span style="font-style: italic"> Hitman </span>....they may need a sacrificial goat

Good luck

An episode a few weeks back showed turkey hunters walking around in blaze orange. The 'turkey hunting area' sounded like a war zone.
 
Re: CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

The adage that "any publicity is good publicity" is wrong. In the context SnipersHide was used, it doesn't bode well for the website because it means every nutbag who watches that show will want to see what our fair site is all about. In addition to that, it also garners unwanted attention from Big Brother.

As ArcticLight put it, <span style="font-style: italic">not good</span>.

I'll have to catch it on a re-run or perhaps On-Demand </div></div>

Apparently my On-Demand doesn't have CBS! Go figure!
 
Re: CSI newyork mentioning the hide!

I just rewatched it... the episode is named "hide sight", though it mentions "sniper's hide site" several times, it never mentions the internet or our hide... it refers to "the sniper's hide site" in the context of a FFP

No one has paid me a toll to cross. However maybe you can throw a $10 over every bridge on your travels. 4 post since my join date would allow one to reason I have no time to troll, lots of shooting and reading not so much on the armchair bashing, sorry fellow hide member for leaving you with an incorrect asumption.
