BURNING SITES

Alright, I'm understanding a little better now the point you guys are trying to make. ITS JUST NOT COOL. I'm sorry. No more stickers.

What does the maker of the sticker think of the practice of tagging jump sites?

All,

I've removed the name of the sticker maker (as well as, in one place, a competing sticker company) from this thread, at the request of that manufacturer.

Kudos to you .....
With all the negative vibes people get for doing the slightest thing wrong in this discipline.....
If no one else is gonna say it...I will....I think changing your point of view like that deserves a pat on the back ( or a sticker.... )
No really....good for you.

The last thing I meant to do, was start an arguement, or piss anyone off. In fact, I only originally posted to compelment Magot on the Jump. Damn, shit turned fast on me didn't it.

Sounds like best practise has be established/reminded here.

But a Leave No Trace Bumper Sticker http://www.lnt.org/membership/index.html would be a nice touch- as long as its used on the place intended!

Would be better having one of those on your car turning up to a NP than Skydiving/Base ones..

Hey Chris, I got a gold star for the back of your helmet! We have ALL done stuff that with hindsight, wasn't such a cool idea. My opinion is stickers belong on lunchboxes and bindercovers,not where people that cannot appreciate them can see them.I do know of an "A" that has a "Gambler Would Huck It! " sticker that you can only see after exit. That site was "burned" by some other stupid trick...

I was on top of an object in the city in which i live and I saw this Official BASE site," Graffity"

Maggot, I know how you can fight this highly unethical behavior. Paint big "Derka Derka Mohamud Jehad" graffity over it.

Well, every plane that I've ever jumped out of, I've put a sticker on the door for good luck. And so in that habit, ( whether its good/bad ), when I started Base jumping, I put a sticker on the exit point of everything that I jumped off of. ...............

if someone needs a "sign for good luck", he should keep this to himself.
place a sticker on your helmet or your shoes and you have it with you on every exit....

to the argument with base-vids:
they are inside of the cams and on the tapes, not at the exit or on the way to them.

me personally, I do not like stickers or tags, neither in aircrafts nor at exit points.
if you have the strenght in your mind, you will not need visible signs (for others) on the outside.

of course is a sticker different to a large tag, but the main reason behind both leads to the same effect.
someone not involved or involved in a way we all are not interested in, is able to see your personal "signs".

a better way to preach for good luck would be, take some garbage left by others with you on the way down.
leave the site in a better way than you´ve found it.
and "better" here means: cleaner.

just my point of view.

Building/property manager : "Hey John, i was on top of our 'east lake' property and i was noticing little stickers that say BASE on them on one of the corners. would you have any idea who is putting them there?"

worker: "No, i have no idea who would put them there..."

manager guy: "well, if you and i dont know, maybe someone is getting up there that we dont need there. we should be more careful with property security."

KEEP IT CLEAN! NOBODY ELSE NEEDS TO KNOW WE GO THERE!

Dont die!

Manager Guy: Let's call the cops and see if they can figure it out.

Cop: Well, they have left me this nice clue. I'm going to dig around on the internet and see what it means.

Cop: Hey, look at this. It turns out that's a logo from these weirdo's called "BASE Jumpers" who like to parachute off buildings. I'd say you've got a BASE jumper infestation. Better call an exterminator. If you set up video cameras we can get some evidence to go after them next time you see them. And they're already giving us a trail to follow. They're no better than gang members using graffiti to mark their turf. Let's get 'em!

Manager Guy: Wow, I never heard of this "BASE" stuff before. We'll definitely tighten things up around here and see if we can nail those guys.

you guy's are way to smart for your own good. And Cops are lazy useless moron's . this was posted from NYC. the other day I lost all respect for the police when I saw man
freaking out,,. he was out of his mind on meth or something like that. I ran to a cop and told him this.Now mind u was on the corner or park ave. Do u know what the cop did? He walked the other way. all "most cop's" care about is their pension. so don't go giving them credit until they earn it.

Perhaps you should read the last sub from the 'offender' and cut him slack .....

Jeez with this and another thread I'm following on a breach of ethics......I understand the frustration and concern....but frankly the response is just as childish and overdone....

No disrespect , intended...but I expected a more mature attitude from the community in these matters, once someone has accepted what they did was wrong.
