My little cousin had his gold chain ripped off his neck in the bionic room about 250am, the security said "Its happening alot"! Was our 4th year at westfest and was very good up til that point, sort of ruined the night.
So many pikey twats, like the people floating around the dance floor selling fake/shit pills and mdma, dont think we'll be going next year, this is only gonna get worse cuz whoever they are got away with it obviosly time and time again, what ever happened to the peace, love and unity!!
That in mind i do wanna thank slammin for putting on a awesome event, they cant help who turns up and who dont.
Leave a comment if you got effected by these idiots!

I had same thing happen to me but right at the end off the night, just had it ripped straight off my neck. Other than that it was a proper amazing night

Yh a few boys said that some other boys took there wallets

Iv been to 3 now n neva witnessed any bad shit but heard about it.. so maybe we just been lucky. Nevertheless westfest is still my fave event, bloody luv it :)

it was a joke that some off that shit happend!! cant believe it!!! its not about that at all!!! one of my mates got his £400 gold chain robbed off him!! saw one guy grabbin sum girls bag and leggin it just outside the hardcore arena.. my mate thinks she got mugged as well.. she cant actually memba but she doesnt have her handbag any more and she has got some serious bruises and swollen bits all on her legs and on her arms.. she wldnt have got that just from fallin over!!

duno y peaple feel the need to do it.. feel like u gota b warey of alot of ppl when u go to things like that. i cant slate the security because there are a lot of people around and they cant control everyone. Just need the ravers to go there just to get mashed and have a wicked time and be friendly with everyone!!

i dont remember a thing coz i drank way too much and got split up from my mates, but when they found me i had lost my bag with everything in it and im battered and bruised all over! so think i may have been a victim too but I will never know. the 2nd half of the night was wkd tho and i met some funny ppl so i havent lost my faith in the rave scene just yet. might stick to purely hardcore events next time tho, never had any problems at them

lol posted that just before me!

hehe lol just beat ya 2 it!!not that either of us now any more than the other ahha!! stil cant get over it!! duno what happened and we never will!!!


o yea actually some one said they saw a security guy smackin sum girl!!o my!!

I think u could be right about just going to hardcore events.. never really get any trouble ther.. ther was a fight in the hardcore arena saying that but still normally its ok.. every dnb night ive been to there is always trouble.. i do really love dnb tho i dnt think i cld do that 2 myself!!!
(ps i really need a new profile pic..had it for ages!!! help me pick sum1!!)

It's disgusting how these people infect our scene, sorry to hear that this happened to soooo many other people, whatever happened to you fordy-raver is bang out of order, sorry if this offends anyone but I think they should do away with the DnB arena and put hardcore techno/gabba in its place and also maybe put the prices up to deter some of these theiving twats from going.
I know alot of DnB lovers are decent people who wouldnt dream of doing such things but this trouble only happens for the most part when there is a DnB arena at an event!

sorry but what a load of shit !!muggings and shit have been happening in the scene ever since it started.its not got anything to do with what genre music it is..just because you think the(bad bwoys)love the dnb thats shit.infact this years westfest i didnt see any trouble in the dnb allnight..it was more in the happyhardcore..as everyones so fucking wasted in there there easy targets.if slamming stopped the dnb at there events you probly wouldnt get a very good turn out tbh.if you read they said they got mugged in the bionic and the happy arena.sorry but it annoys me when ppl blame a music genre for the trouble.any music or big crowd your gonna get shit..i heard the last englebert humperdink concert at the o2 it kicked off big style!!!!being serious for the money we pay to go slamming shud up the security..they seemed to be more concerned who was smoking in the arenas than the safeness of the ravers.big us anyone who went anyway was an awsum night.

well i had a knife pulled out on me by a rude boy for asking him for some roach/filter, 95% sure it was real, and the people he was with were following me for the rest of the night........this was during technikore set...........ruined my night

mate, there is such a thing as lost property.

we have a box of the lost property here so get your friend to give us a call - we may have it.

and please do think about what you write on public message boards - rumours and accusations do not help. if you have valid constructive criticism then by all means let us know.

for those that did get their chains taken - if that should happen in the future make sure you tell someone on the merchandise stand as well as the security.

i can also assure you that certain small groups of people were being ejected throughout the night as and when we had reports or if we ourselves didn't like the look of people or the way they were acting.

we want our events to be safe and enjoyable, and in the main they are so if we all work together to the weed out the tiny bad element that come to any event then we can all have a trouble-free time.

did you report this?

and again, if you are not sure (as you say you are not), then please refrain from posting rumours like this on a message board.

rumour! why would i spread a rumour like that.............your search team didn't do alot as my mate walked through with a back-pack which wasn't even searched,........i didn't report it which was my bad as i was scared for my LIFE, i know i should have done which is my bad, but this is no rumour

you said you're 95% sure...?

i'm 95% it was real, it had a plastic bag wrapped around the handle, the only reason i can think of that being done is to cover finger prints, it was then hidden down some kind of holster infront inside his jens near his crotch

*jeans

????

yes, same as my friend i was there with, had a big bag with her, she could just walk trough, offcourse there was only make up stuff and spare clothes in it, but if she had her bag full of pills of worse, knives or so, she still could walk trough

exactly my point, and my mate only had a change of clothes but ye, could of had anything in, why did slammin never reply to the searching incident???????
