ZigZagMarquis 8 #57 February 7, 2008 Quote Kitty brought up a good question in that thread about "why would someone that no longer Jumps post to a Skydiving forum?" A few random thoughts: - Boredom & in look of entertainment. - Involved in the sport in a non-jumper sort of way... rigger... jump pilot... DZO (not all of them jump you know)... FAA lurker - Had to "hang it up" for some reason... health... injury... but still like to somehow be involved Quote And boobies mmmmmmm.... boobies.

Thanatos340 1 #63 February 7, 2008 25 people so far that feel Former Jumpers should not post here and yet only one that is willing to say why they feel that way. I understand and respect her opinion (disagree with it, but respect it none the less). Anyone else that doesn’t feel former Jumpers should post here care to share their reasoning?

selbbub78 0 #64 February 7, 2008 Sure why not... The fact is I know of a few good skydivers that had major injuries that have stopped them from being able to jump. They're still full of information, and still pass that information onto the less informed. I'm greatful to have them in our community!

I don't see where he's said any such thing, and I seriously doubt that's what he thinks. Blues, Dave Well think of it this way, it's a cleaner topic to stir up the shit on here.

L.O. 0 #73 February 7, 2008 I like to see those people with few or no jumps posting. It is fun to go threw the different threads and pick out the HPDBs (huge poser douche bags). It makes me feel both good about myself and my huge base of useless skydiving knowledge. It also makes me laugh at these people who think they know enough to express and opinion about skydiving and don't. I have been called an elitist before because of my feelings about what is current (200+). This is the net though. This is a place with no accountability, where you can say what you feel and think. This is also for the most of us a free country and we are allowed to express our feeling and opinions. So let the HPDBs have at it, I for one find it both amusing and thought provoking.HPDBs, I hate those guys. AFB, charter member. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jessica 0 #74 February 7, 2008 No way! People who no longer skydive have nothing to offer either dropzone.com or humanity in general.Skydiving is for cool people only Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woodpecker 0 #75 February 7, 2008 I agree with you Kitty, I dont think non jumpers, people who have moved on, or stopped jumping for whatever reason have no reason to post here anymore. But it does seem that those are the people who are wasting bandwith on one on one jokes or clique crap. PM's and email accounts are where this should go. Not on public forums and especially not on a sport specific forum, but just my opinion. I pass up so much crap from people not giving anything to the community anymore that its sometimes not worth sorting through all of it to find anything remotely related to skydiving. This is not to say they dont have a place here, just the noise level does get quite loud from them...and not all of them of course. Just my opinion, flame away if you dont agree, I might lose a little sleep over it.............nah! Oh, and stay away from giving advice in the technical threads unless you know what your talking about...its bad enough in there without the help.
