froggie 0 #2 August 21, 2001 sangiro,ah. i just posted a thread. its called "for the old timers" . it was posted in a good spirit. sort of to keep the old timers around. It was not ment to be offensive or insulting. please dont take it that way. we love all these new options, and the fact that over 4,000 people, skydivers and whuffos alike have found your site in recent months, well, that totally kicks ass. The point of my thread was just to remind the old timers what we built, and that its still around. we just have to put a little effort into bringing it back..kel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 4 #3 August 21, 2001 Welcome home. Glad you made it back in one piece. Indeed, there has been a rash of wreck-dot like behavior in your absence, at least in this forum. Subtle prompting on several of our parts has made no difference to this new, rogue breed and the people who have chosen this dark path. Oh well, I am sure it will work itself out with a little higher influence. Anyway, want to hear some Quincy stories?Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bbbilly14 0 #4 August 21, 2001 Obviously, I'm not Sangrio, but please do share your Quincy stories. I've never been, but I have heard of equal amounts of good and bad fun (I say fun in the context of any skydiving story, bad or good, is better than a story about "selling units" and going to court). So, please do share...Billy"Son, you've got a panty on yer head!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know the thought just hit me. Some of these people could go back over to Rec.skydiving and almost have the whole thing to themselves. It's like I say when people talk about how certain DZs should close down. "No they shouldn't, because some of those assholes need to stay there". Said with a so it's ok.

Muenkel 0 #19 February 14, 2008 I'm glad that was bumped up as I did not register until about 6 months after he posted it. I learned most of it over the years, but it was a good read. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
