Hello readers, fans, critics and paintballers;
PB2X magazine is here to stay - flipbook and all!

I have spoken with Jes and talked to him about our current changes, and he encouraged me to do the same for everyone stopping by.
Paintball 2Xtremes is actually EXPANDING our locals section. How can that be a bad thing? We are looking to reach out to more players and bring them into this great sport of paintball!
We are doing that by expanding our locals section to 10 regions represented by over 20 dedicated pages each month in the magazine. Jes is correct in the 2 page spread concept, but we are providing each of our 10 regions with that same 2 page spread.

We are providing a place for all the local series, the novice tournaments, the scenario games, and the rec games to be posted and found by local players! We are also providing the place to properly showcase the stores and fields around the different regions that are providing these great places to play and quality equipment.

Let me assure you that PB2X is committed to covering rec and scenario players. We are pleased to hear you like our flipbook! Our coverage of scenario events and rec play is not decreasing, nor are there plans to. We are showing you we are committed with the dual covers. Our flipbook coverage has remained consistent and with the new locals section it can only grow!

So, for all of you hesitant on supporting PB2X magazine we hope you have changed your minds. We are here for all players to share information and continue to grow our sport of paintball.

We hope you will contact us if you have any further questions or would like to discuss anything else.
I hope you will also get in touch with me right away to start your subscription!

Keep Reading!
PB2X

Thank you, PB2X and welcome to the forum.

Paintballers are becoming very gun shy of buy outs, wholesale changes,...etc. and with the announcement of the changes in PB2X within a couple months of introduction of the flip book, I believe scared off some potential new customers, myself included. It is becoming the norm now for paintballers to take the "I'll sit back and wait to see how it will turn out stance" when they see these broad changes in ownership, management,...etc. with paintball companies.

What you are doing here by informing the populace what is going on is a much better way to allivate fears customers might have with changes. Some others in the PB industry might take note.

I still will have to wait and see a couple of months of the format you talk about before I'd buy into a subscription but I am more than willing to keep and open mind.

Thank you and Jes for bringing this to your attention and your responses here.
