well, i have been a member of several other forums(see sig and more)

and for the life of me i cant understand why we arent allowed to advocate other members of our beloved paintball community...

how is paintball supposed to grow as a sport if none of the people communicate... maybe if we could spread the word more tippmann wouldnt be labeled a begginner's gun

and i have a lingering feeling that this thread will be deleted

this forum is a great source of info but the administration and a few of the members... how about some explanations...

i cant remember the poster's name but he posted a thread asking if people had heard of a new forum (the first one in my sig) and got flamed out the ass...

now i knwo there is flaming on every forum but i have found alot of good information on this forum and i dont particularly want to leave so i would like to state my opinion that the rule "5: No advertising. Yes, this means no more "come check out my l33t forum" posts, as well as "buy my stuff plz plz kthx"."

i dont know about you but advocating the paintball communtiy through "advertising"(even though noone makes money off of it) other forums is how paintball became so popular.  So why impede the progress of our beloved sport...

and i know the mods let people buy and sell all they want...www.countypaintball.com or whatever...

i think some of the forum members posting in this thread would benefit from reading the rules...

"2: No flaming. Some butting of heads is inevitable, and accepted. Remember that there is a difference between an argument, and a debate. Treat other users as you would like to be treated."

"4: No spam, no postcount-boosting posts that have no other value to the forum. Crap threads will be locked, blindfolded, and taken out back and shot."

It's because nobody has any interest in seeing every 14 year olds fanboy website about their cool new team. Nobody cares if you talk about other forums, especially company forums.

NO. You CAN NOT advertise. What you CAN do, is discuss said sites, and if someone asks where can I get such and such an item, refer them to that site. You CAN NOT make a thread saying, 'hey, come here!' Likewise, you CAN NOT plug said sites in every post!
