    Posted: 03 December 2004 at 12:47am
I wrote a letter to Tippmann about fixing the forums and suprisingly I got a response.

Tech@Tippmann.com

"ACTUALLY, WE'RE LOOKING INTO IT."

So maybe help is on the way?

Your thoughts?

---------------------------------------------------------- ------

EDIT:  BTW this is the letter i wrote to them (Reb, sorry about the oncee a month comment.  I didn't know you came that much.  Sorry)

Dear Whom This May Concern,

I am writing this email to you today because I am concerned about the loss of respect and dignity of the tippmann forums.  The Tippmann Forums use to be the most respectable forums out there among all others but is slowly dieing everyday because of delingquents constantly spamming, posting porn, cussing and ect.  Without the ip ban not working, we cannot keep these misfits away causing  many tippmann forumers disgusted and leaving.  You have to remember that a lot of these forums like my
self are kids and came to learn about the sport.  How will Tippmann
look when a parent sees their child looking at the forum and see porn
and cussing?  Other than the ip ban not working, the star system isn't
working.  As of now on the forums, we only have 1 active moderator and
2 mods that drop in about once a month (Reb CPL and Sandman).  Since
we can not appoint new moderators, this will lead to huge future
problems other than the ones right now.    Enos_Shenk puts up with so
much crap everday I don't know how he does it.  If it wasn't for him
the forum would be deserted because all of the members would be fed up with the the crap that is posted daily.  You also have to remember
that the Moderator job is voluntarty and Enos does this out of the
goodness of his heart.  What happens when he stops moderating and
cleaning up the nonsense that happens on the forum?  Then we would be truely screwed.  Please.  Please help us.  What do we have to do to
fix this?

A concerned forumer,

ilovepaintball

I like your letter, I think it says the right thing.

that duly noted...saying "How will Tippmann
look when a parent sees their child looking at the forum and see porn...?"...and then seeing your sig...well, I dunno, walk the walk or something.

s'right, I do a webcomic and I update it like every two months. go go!

Please, when sending a letter that you try to look smart in, spell check. It is "etc" not "ect" and this was just plain poor: "Without the ip ban not working" Self contradictory?

That would suck if that was Tippmann's solution to solving the forums (get rid of it). I think they need to realize that if they took care of it, this could be very benefical to the company.

Uhhhh, maybe next time you try to send an oficial looking letter, run it through MS word and utilize the grammar check feature. It isnt hard.
