Jersey yo!!
2knees is making trouble with SkiFanE. Totally uncalled for. 2knees should apologize to her.

Picking on a chick? Really 2knees? You should say your sorry to her for the attack. You should be as good as she is on skis, then maybe talk, but your attack on her is disturbing.

Don't get your panties in a knot. I really am not 'in' with the AZ crowd, and all the past stuff (re: Sundown etc.) I am really have no knowledge about. I just was jonesing for some skiing and bumping on a hot July day and saw a thread where people mentioned seeded vs. natural...and I thought I'd pipe in. And voila... Yes...I post at Andy's site and poke fun of AZ, but I don't recall being mean, and glad a poster up above agrees. I haven't posted here in a while, but I guess it's just not possible for me to post at both places. That's okay. Just would have liked to know that before I got you all so pissy...last PMs I had from Nick were gracious and along the lines of "hope you return to post". Guess that was a crock of poo poo.

Don't let 2knees scare you off. He is a big softy in person. :)

My interpretation of the situation here on AZ was wrong. I thought you were carrying over a flame war from another forum which was not the case. Happy posting! Seeded bumps rule.

No one said you couldn't post in both places. If you do though, don't expect what you say at one place to stay there.

I don't know what you've said on other sites, because frankly I don't care. Apparently something you said, or were part of didn't sit right with 2knees. That's his prerogative. Maybe he misunderstood something you said, I don't know? If you feel you're being attacked by 2knees then please let us know by either reporting the post, or PMing Nick or one of the moderators.

This thread is way off topic and gone a little ridiculous. If we want to start another thread about moguls seeded vs. not please feel free too....

I'm supposed to be enjoying my vacation :lol:

I was under the assumption that SkiFanE was from "another forum" and that is why 2knees came at him. If SkiFanE just posted up his opinion that is cool.

Historically, there were always a lot of trolls popping into AZ that simply want to rile up the Sundown regulars for fun (actually the trolling seems to have died down a bit). Everyone's opinion should be respected unless they are intentionally doing it to start a flame war.

SkiFanE has been a good contributor to AZ since joining and expressed a valid opinion regarding seeded vs natural bumps. 2knees trolled her because apparently he didn't like something she said on another site. DHS jumped in the criticize said site, and to back up 2knees. This would seem to go against forum rules and etiquete.

I think he picked on you once and got reprimanded on a free speech site, imagine that....

Right, no arguments here. I was just backing off of my assessment of the SkiFanE's original post.

He made a comment about my wife once. He did take it down pretty fast. But he never seems to get in trouble. If I did it, I would be on you know what. Just want to know, why he gets away with it? And please do not put me on it, again.

It's all about who you know, when something is owned by someone they are allowed do what they want with it.

I guess so. That's what I thought.

Again, she made no comments that would warrant 2knees to attack her like that. Public apologize in order?

I know I am not banned and free to post wherever. No need to continue this any further.

That's between SkiFanE and 2knees, and possibly the forum management if she so chooses.

It doesn't need to be discussed any further, either this thread will revert back to being about skiing bumps or we'll lock it.

Seeded bumps are a great thing to have at your local hill to practice for the real thing. I personally don't like them but that has more to do with the fact that i dislike hard snow. I freaking love big soft natural bumps like at Taos, telluride, mj ect.....

I can definitely appreciate that sentiment.

I can care less, I can't ski either. I think 2knees along with his neighbor prefer seeded bumps and I wouldn't call his neighbor a gaper...
