1) UP'S & BUMPING
ONE (1) Up/bump type post in a day. Including other people, (having your friends "up" posts for you will result in the deletion of those threads).
NOTE*** An up or bump is *ANY* post that will make your thread go to the top. "Ill now take trades" will be considred a bump. If you fail to follow this simple rule, we reserve the right to close and/or delete your thread completley.
2) ITEM PRICING / TESTING WATERS
You MUST post a price for ALL FS ads. If you dont we reserve the right to delete the thread without your knowledge. Post a price and it wont happen, that simple.
No "how much is this worth" or "I might sell my item" or "testing the waters" posts. If your not sure you want to sell it, figure it out first them come here and sell.
3) THREAD HIJACKING
If you feel that you offer a better deal, then make a new thread in the forum with your ad, do not post in someone elses, therefore ruining their chances at selling their stuff. You will be warned one and the post will be edited, If it happens again you will be Temp. Banned.
4) GROUPING ITEMS / THREAD TITLES
Grouping items will no longer be acceptable. If you have a pile of items to sell, make seperate posts in each respective forum. Barrels cant go in with tanks or guns... etc etc.
(ex. You can't have 3 airsystems, 8 barrels, 3 guns, a few misc parts all in one thread in one forum.)
All threads need to have a title relating to object(s) in the thread. No more "Look at me", "Leaving paintball, all must go!", or "Buy my stuff" threads. Relate the title to your gear, like "Impulse and other gear for sale".
5) NO EBAY
No eBay (or any other auction) links or posts are allowed. If we wanted to buy something on eBay, we would be there instead of here. The post/thead containing said links will be deleted, period.
6) NO ILLEGAL ITEMS
This includes real firearms/drug items of any kind. They are not to be sold on PBeffect. Underage users post here, this is not the place to do it.
Illegal is: Anything we deem that could possibly be illegal to PBN and its users and might get either in trouble with authorities.
7) THREAD CONVERSATIONS
PM's are your friend. They are there for a reason. Use them. Do not carry on a conversation in your thread. If you do we will delete it. It's considered upping.
8) NO FLAMING / PROFANITY
No flaming what so ever. Doesn't matter if you were flamed first, last, sideways, frontways or backways. DONT FLAME. This is grounds for a Ban. Period.
No profanity in thread titles... None what-so-ever. This applies to any variations on profanity. Stars, charaters like @ and $, etc etc. Anything relating to profanity in your title and we'll edit or delete as we feel is necessary.
*** Do Not try and beat the swear filter. If you do, you WILL be banned, Period. No warnings or anything of the kind you will simply be banned on the spot.
9) CORPORATE SPAMMING
No Corporate Spamming or Selling. We do not allow companies to come into the B/S/T forums and sell their stock. If you are affiliated with a store or paintball company you are permitted only to sell used items. If you sell new items under a company name or affiliation your account will be banned permenantly. No acceptions.
