I vote no. Why do pump players need their own section ? We're just as much members of the regular Island paintball community as any others. I think we should be trying to mingle as much as possible and not segregate things as much.

Because that's where they talk about their many tournaments, try outs, teams and other goings on. Since there's no pump teams or tournaments on the island (other than the very occasional special event) a pump section isn't necessary. I also voted no.

Fair enough, this one didn't 'fly but that doesn't mean the next idea won't. Keep 'em coming. smile.gif

Add a pump section and you then have to start adding a section for all the other guns too.
That is why I voted no.

As Bag touched on...the Speedball Section isn't about people who use high end tournament guns it is more for those who play that style of game.

Yeah, I agree with the 'no's.

Pump players looking at speedball games can use the Speedball section just like the rest of us.

Pump players looking at woods or rec or scenario games can use the Woods/Rec/Scenario section just like the rest of us.

Pump players with general paintball-related questions or comments are just as free to create threads and make posts in the Paintball section as anyone else.

Pump players can make threads, posts, and inquiries in all of the field sections, too.

There's.. No real reason to segregate them.

weird that people would vote no. but i guess if we were all the same , life would be pretty boring.

i'd vote yes, ('cept i don't vote cuz they're all crooked - every last stinkin' one of 'em.....'cept maybe jesse 'the bod' ventura). but i'd vote yes because of a few reasons:

1.) it don't cost anything to create a 'pump' section.
2.) there are quite a few old die-hard and new die-hard pump players who could have a variety of 'pump' related questions, comments etc.
3.) having seperate sections makes it easier for 'pump' players to go directly to an area where 'pump' only players frequent.
4.) pump play is growing. maybe try the section out to see if it attracts interest on a trial basis. what could it hurt?

I would like to see one, but I wont cry if there isnt, I think it "might" help with grouping question, answers and discusion together, but it "might" also become a dull section, where pointless threats and posts pop up. and hey, its worth a try i guess, if it doesnt work shut her down, at least we tried something new. well I dont care what happens, let's just get out and play some ball.

im suprised i havent posted in this thread yet!!! I dont like to isolate myself from other players. Id like one, but it really doesnt matter to me. Im not gonna say no, but i think that i think its kinda pointless. If someone wants to put it up, thats cool. But im not really enuthusiastic either way.
