            There are a lot of well established websites, and forums, www.pbnation.com is great, it has a lot of immature posters, but if you are a mature poster, then it shouldnt be a problem.

            http://www.pbnation.com is already filled with good information.

            Plus that website is run on phpBB, it is OKAY, but isn't as efficient, and its search sucks compared to vbulletin. And you don't even have the graphics up yet, "yourlogo" come on.

            Plus the organization is HORRIBLE. you have site related forums at the top, you should have paintball forums at the top. and right under that is the classifieds, which they have a forum for each manufacturer. Uhh... no. just no. Pbnation has it organized with electronics, non-electronics, etc., much better organization.

            Plus, that website is run by a bunch of little kids, I know some little kids act mature and could run a good website, but from what I have seen, this website is gonna suck and be poorly maintained.

            Too many people try and start new forums and spam up other sites, please stop

              Ok...all beginning sites need work...thats one of the reasons they have a forum call "Site Suggestions" And have you ever heard of paintball-guns.com? Alot of those mods have gone to help with that site...go to paintball-guns and tell me its not a good site for what you want to find.Third....thank you for the feedback, its not positive but it is some what constructive....Fourth, would a bad site have 6 people in a matter minutes sign up for it?

                You got members to join cause you just spammed several major sites a little while ago, if you only got 6 members to join after spamming such sites, well you are not doing very well.

                And you also broke the rules, like on pbnation.com.

                    When you make a site you have to ask yourself what can I offer that no site already has. What makes your site different from the other big established paintball forums (ao, pbnation, pbreview)? As I see it nothing, you just have basically the exact same forums a theme for phpbb that you stole from somewhere and not even a custom logo. Not trying to say your site sucks but you have to offer something that is not there.

                    I might signup when you have that something.

                        Its too spread out, nobody wants to check a billion different forums.

                          Good Point... But what if someone just wants to look for, lets say a tippmann, that person can just go to one forum and find what they want...you dont have to go through on big forum...not saying like AO's setup is bad...this is just anouther way of doing stuff.....

                            It might work for a big forum like pbnation, but just starting out its difficult having to goto a new forum everything you want to read a new post, perhaps expanding later on is a better option...

                            Plus, I know lazy people like me won't want to click through all of them, and you'll lose alot of viewers to a question that is asked.(did that make sense)

                              Good point...but it has worked for other sites....If we do not grow alot, they might change that, or they might change that in the future even if they do get alot of people...the site is actually only a few days old, so it has alot of time to grow (they are actually working on alot of stuff as we speak)
