Did anyone see the fast show lat night, you will see how much they wwere taking the piss outof paintball, anyone see it?
Subscribing isnt the answer for newcomers tho is it...if they play a couple of times, they might want to get a copy and might not be able to
And yet they stock airgun magazines which now feature bb guns as does model mart which has a dedicated replica section.
Been there tried that, had to pay 5 quid for them to set up a folder so I could pick my PGI up when it came in. Not only were they so slack that the forgot to put it in my folder even when I knew it was in as another person near mine also had the same order and it was also out on the shelves, but I was lucky to recieve it some months and then had to back order it. Oh and you also have the fun of the YTS staff they hire putting other magazines into your section and you are stuck with them even when you argue that you never bloody ordered it. [Mind you the copy of cross stitching monthly was quite good]
I don't know if its just my local branch of Smiths but I also have to play the hunt the PGI game [now i told them to screw thier order] I don't actually think they know where to put it. One month its next to the airgun mags the next its in the middle of the extreme lifestyle then you'll find it in sports and I've even found it in the hobbies section.
If I knew that I would get my magazine as it was published or within acouple of days then I would subscribe but i've seen the threads when subscribers are still waiting for thier copy well after us unsubscribers have got hold of thiers.
Time for PGI to sort it out then?Originally posted by T.B.F.K.A.T.L.

Cro
T.B.F.K.A.T.L. Not to mention "Combat and Survival" and, "Soldier of Fortune",
not that im suggesting these are Paramilitary publications, but I feel someone of that bent, would learn more from these than they would PGI...that is of course until the point that human soldiers are put into the history books, and after fighting wars via kids sat at computer screens fails...all world disputes will be settled over a nice game of X-Ball....
Teams from the orient such as "Ming Dynasty", or maybe "Commi Legion" from the Rusian states. The States...would be fronted by "Blue on Blue" of course, lots of unintentional Bonus Balling going on there....
However, in the event of a situation like this, it may transpire that all the above teams and others around the globe, would be unloading, against a common opponent, who's desire for world domination and beating down the underdog, had been tolerated for too long....from an Island in the Pacific, (purchased with funds, wrung from companies across the planet) a community who's sole aim is to be selected for the National team..."Patent Parts".
Cro, there's nothing to sort out, we send thousands and thousands out every month, some go astray for obvious reasons and we get to hear about some of them on here but what you don't get is the other 99.99% telling us they are ok with their delivery.
T.B.F.K.A.T.L., there's nothing to worry about mate, feel free to suscribe.
Robbo's right - we use a professional subs house that manages the subs for some of the biggest mags in the country. The mag goes to press on time, the subs house provide the detail on time, and the mailing house mails it on time. We have all the dockets every month to prove it. As a company we have 100k subs a month going out, like i said, I'm not mailing em out meself.
We've got one mag that has 15000 uk subs, every month we'll have 20 people complain on the forums that they haven't got the mag, and it does give a bad impression. But what do we do? We could delete those threads of course, but guess what some people would say about that.

Go ahead, subscribe... Even if you get yours a day later than the other guys on your team it's got to be a damn sight less hassle than practicing your mugging moves in WHSmiths trying to find your favourite mag only to be disappointed that it's not there and the 78year old granny screaming for security didn't really need to be mugged out of the Knitting Weekly section.
Anyway... Satisfied subscriber here!
Happy New Year btw.
