Why I hate PBNation, yet.... I am compelled to "lurk" the threads.

Once in a while, i mean in a great while, that 1% of goodness will come out of the dribble, postwhoring, flame warring, noob bashing, immaturity and juveilism that is largely 99% of PBN. And yes as i am typing this i am wondering if i should actually post it, oooops too late....

EDIT: furthermore that 1% can be divided in tenths.

You can't compete with pbn's trading forums, and Matrix and Timmy forum at that.

the AKA forum is very nice on pbn. I think you can realy only inhabit the gun specific or trading forums over there.

yet again, they have the most guns so you can do lots of window shopping

In Small Talk and the general forums, yes!

You get into most of the individual forums like AKA, Generation-E, Custom Markers, Action Markers, AGD, WGP sometimes, all those. These are actually quite decent as far as minimal to no flaming and very informative insight for the specific gun.

But if you go there to visit Paintball Talk or Small Talk what the hell do you expect?

ditto what meph said.

PBN is a cesspool. i rarely post there. for the most part, I post in the AGD and the AKA forums there. they have decent info, extremely minimal flames and such.

it seems that all marker specific forums are like that.

I wasn't comparing Pbn to this place, this place can't compete with it imo. I was comparing it to more of the other paintball forums that are large with every topic, such as pbr.

Roger that! b/s/t forums, marker specific forums could account for the .2% of the 1%. I wonder if we should deduct for FUBAR or bogus sale items?
