<br />
A home for paintball conversation that sticks around. Built for speedball and open to every format: gear, tech, the pro scene, local play, and a marketplace you can trust. Posts here stay easy to find, so what you write today still helps someone next year.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">The short version</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Be a good teammate. Disagree with ideas, not people.<br />
</li>
<li>Search first, post in the right forum, and give your thread a clear title.<br />
</li>
<li>No spam, no harassment, and no sharing other people's private info.<br />
</li>
<li>Buying or selling? Read the <a href="https://pbwire.gg/announcements.php?aid=2" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">Marketplace rules</a> and <a href="https://pbwire.gg/announcements.php?aid=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">how feedback works</a>.<br />
</li>
<li>See something off? Use Report or PM a moderator. Please don't escalate it in the thread.<br />
</li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Community guidelines</span><br />
<ol type="1" class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Be respectful.</span> Banter and strong opinions are fine. Harassment, hate, threats and pile-ons aren't.<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Stay on topic.</span> Each forum has a purpose. Anything non-paintball goes in the Off-Topic Lounge, which stays civil too.<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">No spam or stealth ads.</span> Shops, brands and fields are welcome. Just be upfront about who you are, keep promotions in the marketplace, and skip referral links.<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Protect privacy.</span> Don't post anyone's personal info, private messages or photos without their OK.<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Keep it legal.</span> No stolen or counterfeit gear, no pirated media.<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Play safe.</span> Posts that encourage unsafe habits, like playing without proper eye protection, will be removed.<br />
</li>
</ol>
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">How we moderate</span><br />
We keep a light touch. Most issues get a friendly nudge. Repeat or serious problems get a warning, and a ban only if needed. If you think we got something wrong, PM a moderator. We're happy to take a second look.<br />
