flash Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 i have to say the one problem with the BBS forum, is the people , it seems most of the people there have nothing better to do then wind people up, and try and start arguments. thats why i will always prefer the PW forums :unsure: :o cheers flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Master Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 There are other forums? *TIK CLICK...* *various moderators cock pistols, aim at certain areas of the body and give you a script.* :o 'Of course there aren't any other online shooting forums. BBS is just an urban myth. So in summary PW good BBS bad. :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 It has some good stuff on it, but like few forums it suffers a bit from 'Prefect Sydrome' ie. if one long established member says it is so, then it is so, and all his merry yes men jump in too What happened over there Flash, anything specific?

deadeye ive Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 I Found BBS to have more good points than bad ,remember it's by far the busiest with far more members ...........I also find it's administrator very level headed . :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeihrauchPower Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 I joined the other day! Then started to receive threatening PMs from someone on there. They obviously had the wrong guy but still wouldn't listen when i told them this. Just continued to threaten me with childish insults. Though apparently they were in their 40's. :o They seemed a little special in the head if you know what i mean! :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rarms Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Been on the BBS a long time and I think all forums have problems. You have to remember that the BBS is probably the most popular internet shooting board in the UK and as such attracts a lot more pillocks than other sites. Proportionately though it is probably on par with most other sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeihrauchPower Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 The main contributers to PW and the Mods are a great bunch! That's down to the fact it's a smaller forum and i wouldn't want this to change, lets hope it stays the way it is. :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Everywhere has it's problems and it's good points. The higher number of users means the higher percentage of bum holes, the law of averages I guess. For airgun information I have to say that the BBS is the best place by a long chalk, after all it is an airgun forum. However it isn't that bad on here in general. You always get the "I've been doing this for 5 minutes and know it all, I read an article on the internet, post a link and whammo, I am the worlds leading authority on everything" people but if you ignore them then you have no worries.

Quite agree Stuart and with you all the way on that one Having read Flash's post's and the way the 'pack' went after him - it's quite pathetic really. As many have said the BBS is scaled up, so you get more good people, more bad, more clever, more stupid etc. But I don't beleive anyone would get treated that like over here.

Mungler Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 StuartP kindly PM'd me the thread which I have just ploughed through. What can I say, well how about miserable sanctimonious bullies for starters. Does anything funny or light hearted ever take place over there, or is it all deadly serious special forces stuff but with airguns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flash Posted March 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 they just really hack me off over there, most of them seem to get kicks out of starting arguments and generally ******* as many people off as possible. the only time i ever use BBS really is for buying stuff, everything else and more can be learnt over here. cheers flash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badsworth Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 I must be the only one on here who has never found the BBS forum - I'd like to check them out if only for a laugh. Can someone provide a link please? B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
