I look at the front page as a gateway into threads on the site. I look at the newsletter as a way to have a "deep dive" into other things. Events, people, places, etc.

I'd definitely like to see off-season roster changes before they are announced anywhere else.

Maybe a "letter to the editor" part where people can voice their concerns about problems/ ideas for pbn or the paintball world in general.
Or maybe instead of a political cartoon you could have a paintball cartoon

Just my two cents

I don't think that PBN is ready for that sort of entertainment.

Here are a few things I would like to see....

- Mention of upcoming big games around the states (to be submitted to PbN in some way by fields/stores)
- Store showcases (small bios on a store in an area, maybe 1-2 per newsletter or more if allowed)
- PbNation reviews of new products (averaged out over user reviews and paired with mod's views as well)

You could do like a 3 page newsletter set up, Front page could be the best of the home screen for that week, the second page could be a bunch of "corners" (curator, tech,...) and the 3rd page could be upcoming events and other news that the admins think should be necessary, A monthly paintball E-newspaper would be great!!!

ReplyNews Ups


Paintball News Rules
  1. No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
  2. Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
  3. If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
  4. Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
