QFT I don't really like that site, but you can find a good review once in a blue moon.

If I ever look at a product review I look at every single one that they have for that product. Look for trends, things like that. Its helpful sometimes, you just have to know how to use it effectively.

Anyways, yes thats a great site. I wouldn't buy anything before I read the reviews there.

as for there not being enough mods...well, lets just say that i personally am probably the hardest on people for posting retail site links. i catch quite a few of them in the areas that i moderate, thus, i really dont get a lot of it anymore, since everyone on my sections generally know better by now (except noobs).
so, techically, that site is permissable.
on topic- i used to go there a lot when i first got into this racket...but then i found forums (like this one) and realized there's much more and better information here. plus, there are people to answer dumb questions and dole out plenty of smart ass comments...and even they sometimes help you. |

Ahhhh, thanks onesikpup! 
I usually search the 'Most Helpful' reviews and there tends to be a few good ones in there.

lol...thats hilarious
i used to go there all the time...that a reason why i bought 2 of the guns i have owned, including the one i have now. People said that it was such a great gun and everything and it was awesome for the price........meh
i have noticed on pbreviews forums, there are TONS of people that are star trek freaks, think tippmanns are THE BEST guns every made, and people that have never seen anything better than an autococker in real life. There are some smart people on pbreview...but the dumb n00bs outnumber them by a lot.
dont get be wrong...some of the reviews on there are really accurate and everything...but others are just insanely horrible. Not a reliable source for reviews. You would be better off asking people on here and on the nation. pay more attention to the responses from the more respected people on the forum with a good post count and look around to see if they make good, helpful posts. If they do, then they are the ones to listen to |

i wouldnt trust the reviewers on pbreview simply because if they buy a gun and hate it, they give it a 1, and if they love it they give it a 10. Amazing how lets say a spyder imagine can be the best gun on the market and the worst gun on the market at the same time...
Id stick with reviews from experienced players on forums, or reviews on sites that have experienced writers
