Question for moderators

[Fat Bob's Paintball]

Could one of the moderators explain why our anouncement that we now supply paint to teams has been removed.

I think there was an announcement a short while back that forbids commercial ads in the classifieds section now... gimme sec, I'll try to find it...


EDIT: ah, here we are, it's actually a sticky in the classifieds section here

It has also been a sticky in Announcements, Contacts and Queries for a while now.

So would an announcement about an up and coming tourny or walk on day be a commercial ad or would it be seen as a benefit for the paintball community and be immune.

If so would the availability of paint to all UKPSF registered teams at "Sponsorship" rates be a commercial ad or a benefit to the Tournament players community.

Then we look again and one of the Sticky threars is a commercial advertisement.

Strange the lack of responce from the moderators, perhaps they are all away say Team Training in Palma/Mallorca with Robbo and Oliver Lang

Those are fine provided promoters don't abuse tha system and keep posting tha same message bout tha same tourney

HAHAHAHAA...Stop it, you're hurting me...

Sorry.

That would be an ad and would be removed.

And as for tha 'what you know, who you know' comment - damn straight. If we choose to advertise PGI, What Paintball Gear, Robo's training course or TJ's carboot sale, we will, cos it's our site which we pay for so we are gonna use it to promote any and all products/services we choose to.

Oh yeah, and I'm back...Hello all.

To make life a little easier for everyone, I've added a little to the sticky with the 'rules'...

You pay for it? I thought your advertisers pay for it...and as I buy stuff from your advertisers, surely I'm paying for it?
