You are the only one throwing out insults however. Where some of us may be playing Devils Advocate, we've all stayed on topic and respectful.
LOL....Sure....no passive agressive sarcastic comments in the whole thread! :roll:

It's controversial to say you can ride a blue trail with powder? Give me a break man.
My comments were not directed at any one specific post, but rather your general attitude and manner on the forum.

It's quite possible to have a heated or passionate discussion about a topic without it degrading into insults, rolleyes, and other nonsense.

+1. Snowlover we encourage differing opinions and debate. It's what makes any forum interesting. That said your attitude can be a bit juvenile at times. When the discussions in several threads you participate in degrades into crap I'd look inward as to why.

Hint: it's not everyone else. ;)

I'm not sure about that. Do an experiment. Go on a right wing forum and start saying how great obama is. Then go on a left wing forum and start saying how great bush is. Watch the attacks happen. Get my point? If you have a few people on any forum that have the same type of opinion.....and someone else comes in with a different opinion than the group/click than you'll have a fight.
That's really all this was. I stated facts....you can ski blues in powder, but there are quite a few people who thumb their nose's at that and are elitist so then they start a fight and it degrades and deflects into something completely different. I could name numerous examples "shoot me if I ever upload a video of me riding powder like that at mount snow" ect. That was the group elitist(I only ride hardcore blacks/I'm extreme/ego) opinion.

I just don't take shit....I hand it out. ;)

Their comments were offensive and antagonistic and sarcastic in nature. It was not simply a differing opinion. When I talked back the 2nd time....that's when they start getting pissed. It's the same no matter what internet forum when your opinion differs from the "pack"
