Yeah, I think that was one of the first things they did, after Neil posted a link to some pictures from one of the UXPL events. They weren't having any of that.

A suggestion:

Rather than spamming their forums because you don't believe in how they do things, just don't go there. If you truely believe your forums are better (and I am not saying they are or are not), then just focus on making your forums what you want them to be. Going to their forums and spamming them saying they are nazis, the evil empire or whatever else simply makes you look lower. I know a lot of you have a lot of bad feelings toward utahpb and that's fine, but why lower yourself by attacking them?

I personally am glad to see another Utah paintball forum. More areas to gather paintballers together is always a good thing. I hope this forum grows in order to promote our sport even more. But I also hope that this forum promotes paintball rather than simply attacks other sites that are trying to promote paintball.

If you stay positive instead of simply attacking other people, you will eventually attract others that believe the same things that you do.

Travis,
Welcome, I think you missed part of the reason this site exists...

It is not "simply to attack utahpb", contrary to the propaganda they have been putting up in thier private forums.

There is ONE thread out of many on 801paintball where some of us have expressed our opinions about Utahpb's actions.

We beleive in letting people express themselves, not trying to force group think on people by banning contrary opinions.

The fact that You and mods from Utahpb are allowed to post on 801paintball without fear of Banning is evidence of that freedom of expression that is 801paintball.com!

Many props to Neil, Nate, Chris, Gregg and others who put this site up you guys are Awesome!

I think Addicts is making a partial reference to the numerous "goto 801paintball.com" posts that were put up on utahpb.com Saturday morning. The posts have since been removed.

Guys, I know a lot of people on this site have very strong feelings towards utahpb.com, but a blatant attack is probably not the best approach. It will eventually bring on a battle that I'd hate to see this site become part of. There is no need to do a spam attack on the utahpb site.

If you don't like the opinions, politics, structure, format, colors or anything else about utahpb, then don't go there. It really is that easy.

Just my 2 cents.

Allen Turner · 07-17-2004, 12:55 PM

I am Banned so I cant even see their site but if some of you guys are Spamming thier site then just drop it.

If you want to let your friends know your feelings thats fine but dont be sending email or PM'ing people you dont know.

Ya I guess it is kinda my fault I didnt mean for it to come to where we are attacking utahpb.com I just wanted to help get the word out about 801paintball. Guys dont start a war with them, that takes away the hole reason the forums were started. Those like me who have been banned have good reason to dislike what utahpb is about but you know what that is life if you go around attacking everything you dislike your whole life will be war. So like Allen Turner said DONT SPAM UTAHPB just let your friends know about 801paintball.

We certainly wouldn't want them to do the same to us, that would just ruin both forums for everybody.

I thought I made my position quite clear. Or are you referring more generally to the users here?
