... r u gonna alow ppl to sell other guns then just tribals on here???

can'tthink of1
03-01-2005, 01:28 PM
Yeah, the b/s/t needs to be more than just tribals, cause alas, we can't all be like you edwin and shoot only tribals :) LOL
Non-Tribal Markers F/s or something like that would be good. Along with, Non-Tribal Parts F/s or something to that effect. I suck at the naming thing, but I'm sure you guys can do better.

also, i pm'd kaos and edwin... with some questions.....
so like we gonna have a seperate forum for none tribal stuffs... with sub forums for certain things....?? guns, tanks, hoppers, misc, ect. yeah?? :D that would be kool.
EDIT: also, alowing ppl to sell other then tribal stuff here will open this site up to alot more ppl.... it wont just be directed to 1 group to much.... like, the only way to get new tribes ppl... r by selling/buying tribals.... its not like the company is still in business.... so alowing ppl to sell other then just tribals here would get us out there more... and then if ppl have questions about tribals and such... they know were to look :D
just a thought......

Shawn, as nice as it would be, do we want like 5 dead topics? Like, airsystems, and such, are all general imo, and for the time, I don't feel the need to have them.
Sub-topics for other markers would draw more in, but its a bunch of topics that would be basically dead, unless we manage to draw owners from other marker groups, which, this forum is mainly for tribals. I suppose a "Non-Tribal Marker" Topic would be fine, but is it really necessay?

Edwin, you might want to have a Scenario/Big Game section

I think it's too complicated.. there's 15 forums. We won't get more traffic then we do here, so it'll be hard to check for new threads. I think it should be like 4 forums at most... like a B/S/T and Tech forum, General Tribal, and Off- Topic
I probably won't use this forum much unless it gets WAAYYY simplified...
EDIT: OMG!!! newest posts go one top... screw this... :confused:

OMG, you can change it, in the CP, under options.
Anyway, I kinda feel there are a bit too many forums.
I mean, for the traffic we are going to get we could just have a marker b/s/t, part b/s/t, general, tech, ot, and maybe another one, not too sure though.

I myelf, would be happiest with like 2 forums... even though I doubt that'll happen
EDIT: hehe, they deleted the TOG thread on pbn..

Yeah, that messed with my head the first post or two, but then I saw it was an option and changed it to "Linear - oldest posts first" and the world was right again.

I am trying to get support on that issue, but my posts aren't getting replied to on vbulletin just yet.
bullschmidt, it would be nice to keep/gain as many members but I can see your a person who can't tolerate any change.... ....to each his own I guess.

Off topic/small talk/anything goes forum would be nice:)
Also more smilies, 11 does not support all of my emotions!
Edwin
03-01-2005, 07:35 PM
I need to upload more emotions but that will take a little time as we have a lot of other things that need to be done first.
I'll try to find a Drunk Smilie just for you Jake. :)
Nice Avatar!!! Why are you ashamed of your alcohol??? Be a prowd drunk and take that damn bag off your beer!!! :D
Edwin
03-01-2005, 07:37 PM
Just for Bullshmit!!!
Click 'New Posts' on the tool bar at the top of the page and you will get the view that you desire (one forum view only)!!!!

03-01-2005, 07:44 PM
I fixed it. I still think we need alot less forums.. It's confusing to check 15 forums with 2 posts in each...
EDIT: the new post button helps, but I think it should be simplified :o

Is it proud to be drinking Colt .45? I didn't think so.
Plus it is not beer, it is malt liquor.

Have you ever tried Colt .45? Take my advise, and don't, unless you like going to your Russian class at 1030 in the morning still drunk and about ready to puke and read english subtitles from a Russian movie, then have to explain to your teacher why she didn't get your email about a website you had to make for a different movie you watched in class, also in Russian with english subtitles. All the while reaking of sweat and alochol. Then going back to try to sleep, only to find you still havent taken out the kiddie pool out of your 2 person dorm room, that also is causing the room to become very humid, and yet you can not open the door for fear of a RA seeing it.
Lesson: Don't Drink Colt .45

Seriously Edwin, I think we could combine all the "tech" forums together. They are just going to all be like 5 posts in them and be dead 99% of the time.
Then For the Pic forum, we could have one, with the name of post your tribal pics and action pics, and people could make a new thread and post their pics, then people could comment on them. I mean, if we are going to have a seperate forum, why not allow seperate threads all in one forum? Think of it, someone makes a thread with thier pictures, and people can comment and ask questions and such. Both action, tribal, and other marker's could all be under one forum, much simpler imo.
We also need a secret mod forum, were we can discuss stuff. :D
I mean, then an Off Topic Forum would be nice. Cause you know we need a "FIne Babe thread" but minus the nudity for "younger" members.

I completly agree with cantthinkof1

Thanks for the constructive opinions. Maybe I just got carried away with my new Forum Making Powers...:D
I think I want to keep the Picture Forum the way that it is, as I would like to see Tribal Markers in one spot and all the paintballin in another. If someone is new to the Tribe they can look at just one forum and see all the different types and customs. Furthermore, the picture forum gets pretty conjested after awhile. Of course in the beginning it will be very small, but that is why we are here to fill it.
I'll Work on the Tech Stuff this morning.

Off topic/small talk STAT

Also a general paintball forum would be nice, to discuss recent topics that involve paintball, such as new guns and new products just released.

Let's just keep an eye on things. Those forums that don't get used much can be combined into one that is doing well and has some sort of relation. I just don't see where it's a numbers issue. For example in the b/s/t section, the 4 different catagories there should do quite well. Remember this is not supposed to be another *gag* pbn..... we're trying to be more dimentional and free thinking here.
This site is less than a week old and already has a very nice user base. Imagine what can happen in a few months!
Edwin

Well it has been a few weeks.... ....do you guys still think it is dificult to get around the TOG???
What changes do yall think we need???

I think it's difficult, so I use the new post button, which helps alot...

I dislike the way you have to hit the "quick reply to this message" on the bottom right on the each post. I would perfer it just normal, and be able to type.
Also if you hit it before this pops up
"Please click one of the Quick Reply icons in the posts above to activate Quick Reply." It quotes the person.

Hmmm, that is more of a Vbulletin program issue. Something I don't have control over!!!

Your issue is only difficult when your looking for current "active" topics. I click the "New Posts" quick link to when I am trying to add to current topics.
BUT, I don't think it is difficult or confusing when your looking for particular topic, i.e tech stuff, or for sale.
Also when you want to post something, you just go to the forum that pertains to your topic and start a new Topic!!!!
The only time that it is every difficult is if you actually search each Forum for new posts, which shouldn't be done as we have a "New Posts" quick link!!!!
So tell me, if you wanted to find out about Tribal HPR tech issues what would you do??? I would go directly to the HPR Tech Forum or to the Search Quick Link. Is that difficult???

I'm just saying that it is hard to browse the forums like one normally would
JaKaL
03-23-2005, 08:12 PM
I think it's just as easy to browse as any other forum that I frequent. Does noone else just click on whatever forum shows new posts?
I love this site. So much better than *** or PBR.

I think we need just a general paintball forum, "Tribal Owners Group (TOG) is kinda useless, we need like a general paintball forum, and a general tribal forum. Cause, I think Small talk should have nothing to do with paintball imo (liek other forums, it needs to be like, cars, music, etc, not paintball, thats what general paintball and general tribal would be for.)
Aside from that, this place is pretty kick'n
