It’s that time again!!

Time for another reminder post on how to use your brain when you post! I've seen this posted by myself and others in almost all the forums out there.. but mostly everyone reads T&O so I thought I'd give it another shot.

We have 9 (Count them) forums that normal members (non-moderators/admins/tech people) are allowed to post in (yes, I know regs is locked to Gold and above)...

These are, in order:

1) New Player Forum
New to the sport? Get Professional Advice Here!      
     
2) Marker Gallery
Show us your guns!      
     
3) Paintball Ideas
Got a new idea or a way to improve something?      
     
4) Upcoming Events
Tournaments, Field Openings, Scenario Games...

5) Thoughts and Opinions
Got something you need to say?      

6) Tippmann Regulars
Welcome Back.......      

7) Which Gun is Best
Need Advice? Ask the pros.      

8) Upgrades and Customizing
Trick it out!      

9) Gun Maintenace and Repair
Just the Tech Questions

These titles are SELF-EXPLANATORY. If you have an idea, post it in ideas. Don't post it in T&O because you wanted "ur opinions lol"... don't post it in New Players because you're new. Use your brain.

Similarly, don't ask what gun to get in T&O or New Players... ditto for upgrade decisions, tech help, upcoming events, gun pictures, etc. Come on, it's not that hard.

I know I for one am afraid to go into New Players or Ideas because of the sheer volume of badly placed posts.. I'm afraid I'll lose self control and go on a cursing spree, getting myself guested.

I think I know the real reason why KRL left for a while. Taking a look at Paintball Ideas and New Players just now, for the first time EVER I didn't see a bunch of badly placed topics, whether due to the mods moving them quickly or because there aren't any idiots posting in there right now. However, I do notice that T&O is FULL of stupid, misplaced posts.

Click on the link marked "Tippmann Forum" and go to the relevant place before you post. It makes for better responses (regulars are more likely to help people instead of morons who don't actually know anything, and therefore you're less likely to get hurt by some moron telling you it's okay to shoot marbles through your barrel or something equally dumb), and makes the lives of the mods that much easier.. plus you're not as likely to get a full page of "OMG PUT IT IN UPGRADES AND CUSTOMIZING!! NEWB!!"

Luckily I'm not a mod, or there'd be a rule against terminal idiocy, and it'd be punishable by IP ban..

Yes I am a Christian, before somebody flips out and goes "BUT J00R T3H CHRISTIAN, J00 CANT BE ANGRY!!!!11", I'd like to quote the verse that states "Be angry, and do not sin." Luckily.. I haven't done that yet in this post.. that I know of.






For anyone just scrolling through my post:

USE THE RIGHT FREAKING FORUMS ALREADY!!

Thank you.

EDIT: We have an edit button too. Use it.

And mad props to Hades for the post below.

EDIT #2: I'm gonna sticky this until or unless a mod decides to take it down.. PM me or just do it yourself. Or make an official post about it. Hate to make it a sticky, but..

very well put admiral!

Whats the best barrel for my 98?

How do you like my marker? Rate it 1-1,000,00000000000

Bump..

And to meteora... Uhh.. Upcoming Events? (Which really should be renamed to just Events, IMO). Or if it's a recap of something, in T&O. That kind of thing isn't really the problem, unless you're doing it ten times a day. It's people asking for tech help in T&O and stuff that bugs me.

And isn't it sad that this got bumped to the second page so fast?

Look at this awesome pic of my gun!

I like ice cream.

That's ok, I really wouldn't have noticed anyway...

But, one thing I have noticed is the massive size of your sig, it's eclipsing the sun (kind of).

cool
