jumperconway 0 #51 April 8, 2004 QuoteSteve, I couldn't agree with you more. Its so sad that people focus on others so much that they feel its their duty to "change" them. Why can't they just shut the fuck up and let them be stupid if they so decide----------- Maybe if you read the thread, I didn't try to change anyone. I sent a PM. ------------------ What's really annyoing to me is that after all the crap that closed Talk Back, some assholes already start some new shit that HH worked very hard on over the last 2 weeks to create a "better" atmosphere for us here. The mini-profile was asked for by many here, and now some are self-proclaimed cops of the this mini-profile. ---------- Being the "asshole" that I am, I am not the cop of anything. If you took the time to read, this was nothing more than a fucking poll that got personal, not by my doing. --------------------- I really don't understand why you people give a shit. If its not in a topical thread leave it alone. If it bothers you so much, go pound your wiener and come back later when you are more relaxed. ----------------- Now that I am relaxed, there happens to be a whole lot of people on this forum who know me personally. My info is correct and I will be at SSMI this weekend. If you have a problem that you would like to address in person. The info in my file is correct, so if you would like to go pound your small sausuage and adjust to reality, feel free to give a shit and join me!

It surprises me that people here worry about their status, whether it be jump #'s or # of posts. In the end it doesnt matter. I have talked to some really experienced dudes, and never knew how many jumps they had. It doesnt make them different as a person. Only when people give advice (in other forums) should we be concerned. If someone is so worried about their status, then let them be happy with the fake #. For now, I would like everyone to just chill around the fire?! how bout that?And slappie, i think it was brave of ya to come out and say mate! --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

Unstable 9 #53 April 8, 2004 I am not a credibility officer around here, and I KNOW several people that come to my mind that have signed themselves up as Instructors and Jumpmasters who are in fact, far from it. I don't give a rats butt about jump numbers, years in the sport, or anything else, but somebody like that, lying about their Credentials, and giving advice on DZ.com, is going to get somebody hurt! I've sent a PM and done what I can, but If they decide to be stupid, so be it. I am my own person, and I am better than that.....Edited to add: I am not trying to haijack this thread or fill it up with stupid personal experiences, but maybe this will help us see the issue more from a safety standpoint. We NEED to know who we are recieving advice from.=========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aviatrr 0 #54 April 8, 2004 Honestly....if it didn't show our jump numbers on our posts....I wouldn't have mine up there...it's irrelevant for most issues...but I have it up there because otherwise it looks like somebody that has 0 experience, and I don't want people to discount what I say(in serious skydiving forums) just because it doesn't have a jump number. However, if you discount what I say based on the fact that you think it's BS....well, that's fine.. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unstable 9 #57 April 8, 2004 I think that if we take this ENTIRE issue down to it's very base, we see that this is all because people are too concerned worrying about what others think of them and not enough of what they think of themselves. I'm not the person to be taking this kind of advice from, I worry too much about other people and everything in general. =========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyThomas 0 #58 April 8, 2004 Is it something that is seriously causing you to lose sleep? People lying about their numbers? Is it that big a deal? Do you get all offended because someone says they have more than you, when they don't? [quoting SOUTH PARK] we're talking night court in it's fifth season LAME! [/quoting SOUTH PARK] Here, just to piss you off, and make you lose sleep , I will modify my numbers. (although it looks as if I already have) and don't bother PM'ing me about it, cause I don't give a fuck if someone wants to get their little panties in a wad about this type of shit. I can see the point if you were actually skydiving with the person, and they lied to your face. Then you are talking a safety issue perhaps. But here on the net?

Slappie 9 #64 April 8, 2004 QuoteTsk tsk Slappie has been masquerading as a skydiver....what is the world coming to? I'll still speak to you Slappie, and I'll even treat you with the same respect I have always had for you, so watch out! Actually, when I put the number in.. I was skydiving and jumping often. So that was kinda a target number for me. I haven't jumped in almost 2 years. I also haven't modified my profile except to change my avatar in almost 2 years. So it wasn't a big dealio to me. Now that the format changed it was brought out into the open. So a mistake on my part has branded me as a liar, cheat, fraud, scoundrel, and whatever else people can call me in PMs. You will find I have never once given skydiving advice or instruction in any forum on this site. Now if my little "lie" has really shaken up the skydiving community this much I'm really afraid. Beacuse you peeps need to be alittle less concerned with others and pay much more attention to yourselves. Thanks Nac, here's a cold Shiner for ya Got room on the isle for a jump number fluffer? I need to escape, go on the lamb and change my identity!!

AggieDave 6 #66 April 8, 2004 QuoteI could just put 1000+ or 500+ but I care to show currency, so if you check next week it will be different~ That's why I use the '+' is because of currency. I'm generally jumping every 2 days or so during the week and every weekend all weekend and jumping a lot, so I don't feel like dicking around with keeping the *exact* number up to date here. Also, the way I look at it, if something like that pisses someone off, then I don't need them...nevermind that there would be much more about me to piss them off later.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

StevePhelps 0 #67 April 8, 2004 QuoteOk before this goes any further and Conway's ego gets any larger.. I had mine set at 200+ I have not made 200 I know it was a bad desion on my part, but hey I wanted to fit in.. I've only done 58 jumps (logged).. Slappie: I was going to comment until I read all the threads -- your apology & correction should suffice, but I still wonder why you needed to inflate your #s to "fit in" Do you not accept low # jumpers or just hang around the crowd that doesn't? If the former, shame on you, if the latter -- move on, life is too short! Be yourself! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
