You think that was a bad decision.

On saturday my team was 2 for nothing with a long time to go, The bowler (starting very wide at the crease) bowls a decent in-swinger a) I hit it b) It hit me outside leg and c) it ended up at fine leg. The umpire calls me out

But the worst thing was I was on 0 and it was an absolute ripper of a batting pitch.

I can testify to that!

Not a dodgy rule at all but ive never ever heard of a umpire in indoor cricket being inside of the net.

Nothing dodgy in that infact Umpire must have shown a red card to you for hitting him :)

Umpire at both the Cheltenham and Gloucester indoors are in the same positions as in 'real' cricket. This is in no way dodgy, it's just bad luck on the batsmen part. As for a dead ball, don't be stupid. Why on earth is it a deadball, if it hit the non striker and stopped it's not a dead ball etc etc.

Nothing dodgy with this one. Next :)

We've had worse in indoor cricket.
Batsman hits a rising ball as a pull shot into the netting. Undoubtedly and easy catch when it bounces slowly off the netting to a guy stood underneath. Ball goes through a small gap in the netting through and they get 2 for the run and 1 for hitting the netting. Should have been caught or a dead ball.
Guy goes on and retires.

That's cricket.
