Get Ben Fredericksons to teach them all. He went to college. BTW - I already added him to your who's who. And feel free to call him by his new last name. He loves it.

Sorry, no plans to add all the divisional players. When they go Pro, they can go green.

I know everyone else does the same thing, but Pro's need it more. IMO
what are you talking about pros dont pay anything for an event

Haha, it might be easier to train daily and become a real Pro then dodge the system.

Saying PM for price is OK in this forum. Selling NIB items is OK in this forum. Some of these guys haven't sold too much before so give them time to learn the rules.

I like the new set up. I practice with a lot of pro players and they spill their heart and soul into getting better day in and day out. They deserve their own forum.

I mean, in the end....aren't these the guys you look up to? So stop complaining about how they have something you don't on here, they earned it.

Good job mods and congrats pros

I'm assuming anyone registered as Pro in the PSP or NPPL can get the green?

Also, are you applying it to European players in the Millenium too? If so, will all CPL players qualify?

One more thing, with some of them they won't have posted much or have much feedback, but I'm guessing that if they've been checked out to the extent your comfortable you've turned them green then we should be pretty sorted to buy in good faith and be able to rely on the good mods to help out as much as possible should something go wrong?

Thanks.

Edit: Cool idea BTW

Always take care anytime you buy anything online. No matter who you buy it from.

Right now we've turned people in the Who's Who sections of our forums green. If CPL teams want a team forum, they can approach us.

So the player needs to be a member of a Pro team who have a PbNation forum then?

Rules for Pro Player Equipment Forum
Please do not offer trades unless the thread specifically says they are all right. Most Pros can not shoot or play with different gear even if it is a fair trade.

This forum is for Professional players to sell personal gear, not for players to open a mini-PbNation store or to front for a retail store. You may post new in the box (NIB) items you were given as part of sponsorship, but please post at or above the minimum advertised price (MAP). You can sell them for less, but please work that deal out in private.

We recommend posting your real name, team name and what you are selling in the title of the thread.

Please click here for tips on using the PbNation B/S/T section, or here for the complete B/S/T Rules.

We recommend you always check for new and old PbN feedback as well as the Theft Forum before considering any deal here.

(Click on a number for a more detailed explanation or examples.)

1. Buy/Sell/Trade here on PbNation at your own risk. Always get complete contact information before anything is shipped.
2. Post new threads in the proper forum.
3. No links to auction sites, forums or other sale sites.
4. Post a title that accurately describes what you are selling.
5. List the item(s) for sale clearly and post a reasonable price. Websites may not just link back to their site.
6. Product being sold must be in seller's possession. No pre-orders.
7. One thread per item sold (please read the sticky in the Gearbag and ASM forums for exceptions).
8. Post new or "only tested" items in the New or Unused Equipment / Services forum only.
9. No counterfeit, illegal, prohibited or non-paintball items where the user must be 18+ to purchase.
10. No selling online gaming accounts, virtual goods or currency.

Violating any of these rules risks an infraction, thread closing, thread deletion or even a ban. Gold Ups will not be refunded.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins section.
Please read and follow the complete Terms of Service as well.
Please report posts that break the rules. If you can not follow all of the rules found here, please do not post in the B/S/T section of PbNation.
