post number exceeding jump number

Recommended Posts

Well, I could show you a recent video and let you decide if I'm a skydiver or not :)
It took about 2 years of posting gibberish during the week to obtain my post count. If you read my sigline and realize it's often true, you'd probably agree I can skydive better than I type!

I don't post as often now but I jump less than I used to to make up for it.

My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto

especially someone with like 50 jumps and over a decade in the sport and well over 25,000 posts.:D

There is no excuse...

Less typing and more jumping people.

at least you have 5000 jumps and less than 2 posts per jump.

There are some losers with over 500 posts per jump...:D

To me it depends on the nature of the posts. Most of mine are in the Bonfire which has next to nothing to do with skydiving.

I jump probly three days a week at the moment and am probably at the dz five days a week, but my post numbers are higher than my jump numbers because I work from home and get bored very easily and I don't have enough facebook friends without lives to keep me entertained. Thankfully there's dropzone.com for that. :P

Well, posting is a LOT cheaper, faster and easier than jumping...see you at CP Nationals in September, right? We can talk about it more there.

For most of us, there are more posting days available during the week than jumping days. You can also post on bad weather days, but you can't skydive on those days. It's also easier to post than skydive when money is tight.

"Sofa skydiver," I like it. And I am on sabbatical, enjoying Korean life and all that. Plus, most of my posts are bonfire and women only posts. But seriously, even before I went on a jumping break, I lived 3 hours from my dz and worked and went to school full time.

And yes I am SO sofa skydiving tonight :P

@ " sofa skydiver"...

How did Couch Freaks get it's name, anyway ?

Is it because 2nd hand couches are essential elements of every DZ hangar; while waiting out weather holds, your load to be called...

or due to the occassional couch jump ?

I know it's also known as Dollar Daze, but don't think I ever questioned it's Couch Freaks tag, til now !

No matter, we look forward to it each year :)

I don't think there's anything wrong with it at all. My posts well exceed my jump numbers. But I'm one of those who can hardly afford to jump. I'm at the DZ almost evey single weekend either working or haning out. Occasionally I have the money to make a jump or two. Does that mean I should never post on dz.com? What else am I supposed to do at work when I get ahead on my work?

I've never been able to figure out why this bothers people.



+1 where's the "who gives a f@ck" option in the poll

edited to add: I rarely think to update my jump numbers in my profile
