Come on, there is no good explanation for what OSME did. A lie is a lie.

I feel the same way.

agreed. A bit of white lie / stretching the truth is one thing, but that whole thing made me lose all respect for the guy....it's creepy. Not that he cares what I think.

How about we all just boycott all this bullshit drama and resume talk of skiing/stoke.


This is it-last post on this subject......nothing else to discuss. snow is getting close!

I thought GSS stood for Great Ski Stoke, oops, wrong thread.

 

[JimG.]

Not that it will change anything. But I can't help but wonder how nails that thread hammered into GSS's coffin here on AZ.

I assure you many nails were hammered into that coffin long before that thread existed.

. It's not the first time members came to AZ looking for support during times of real personal tragedy. Remember when one of our own lost his wife? Many of us were there to support him. Warp Daddy is going through a pretty intense recovery period after open heart surgery this summer and AZers are there to encourage him and keep his spirits up. There was also another personal incident when a member posted here looking for support during a difficult time which has an ironic tie-in to this whole situation. I won't go into that, but most of you know what I'm talking about. Whether or not you think personal stuff should be kept out of the forums, it does happen.

I've been away at a family reunion till tonite and am sorry to see this BS going on .

If people want to behave like schmucks and mock others ----its their problem

Me, i'll opt to stay and support any of the AZ who were kind and pumped up my sneakers during a pretty rough medical ordeal. I said it before those that offered kind support -- fellow skiers who gave a shit about an old dude during a tuff time -- U guys rock !!

I want to build people up, not tear em down !!!

Warp: First, I, for one, am very glad you're well enough to travel to family gatherings in good times!! I do believe everyone who posted in your thread was sincere....

Secondly, I don't think that many if anyone are going anywhere...(with perhaps the exception of GSS... ) be that as it may...

I think any intelligent internet user learns how to filter through the piles of massive trash online. (on AZ and on other sites) When one reads a sincere thread with personal overtones...it comes through.
After frequenting different forums, one gets a sense and should be able to gauge other members' knowledge of particular subjects, sense of humor and sincerity, especially with varying topics.

One of the great things about the internet is the ability to acess information.....Objectively this is more about the user being able to be the one to filter the information and source...not the forum.

dude.. relax... there's no way to control what people want or feel they need to do.. People(myself included) have the right to not take AlpineZone seriously.. And maybe the serious stuff makes them(me) uncomfortable. . But - whatever.. I just chose to look at what doesn't seem serious.. Or not... Or do...

your peeps will be your peeps.. and no internet board will change that... it's just a flow that you have to either try to enhance, detract or watch... Or not...

Because people keep perpetuating lies and/or incorrect assessments on the situation, so some people feel compelled to try to correct them. You're right though, they should just drop it, obviously some people have their heads so far up their asses that they'll never hear the other side anyway.

I am pretty sure most everyone has heard the other side, but that doesn't mean everyone is going to agree with it. Look at the whole Killington debacle when POWDR took over. They communicated their strategy, but people spoke out against it (and still do), because they didn't want a place they love changed in ways they disagreed with. Much the same way, many people enjoy this site, and have the desire to speak out when decisions are made they disagree with. I have to respect Greg though, for allowing these dissenting opinions on his own turf.

Those people need to be subjectively banned.
