I can assure you I'm not being ignorant, and im not sure where this got personal we all know what happens when robbo gets personal(queue another hateful thread), but I'll continue to type non the less(I'm not sure whether I should ask for permission to keep typing).
So you've played paintball(or been "in the game") for 27 years, and you own a website? So you've still not answered my question?
Who are you? From my perspective, you are a negative person, that in recent, has only spread words of hate.
In what way has the uwl not been successful, because I've not heard one bad thing from the players(y'know the paying customers)?
So finally, when did this website become a place where only comments based on what you vet, or agree upon, can be posted! I remember a time(within the 27 years experience you have) that p8ntballer was a community of players that would have endless discussions about upcoming seasons, debates about players, difference of opinions etc etc etc. now however, and unfortunately, it just seems to be your show, and whome ever doesn't agree with it, isn't allowed to "post on your website".
To answer your question about who I am.
I'm a paying customer, who attends events! Im a neutral, I can't be swayed by drivel on a website, or phoney achievements, OR threats of being banned(because in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter does it). I owe no one anything apart from an ear to talk to and help if needed.
