Jasmin 0 #3 June 17, 2002 I finally discovered the "Forum" section of dz.com a few weeks ago, and I can't go 3 days without posting!! The people on this site rock. I love to talk to 'em, even if I'm not jumping that weekend!Don't go away, if you can't jump you might as well talk to jumpers! That was one of the few things that kept me sane when I had to give up jumping... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sangiro 4 #7 June 17, 2002 With all due respect.... I locked a thread of yours because it had no other purpose whatsoever than being a "Lame attempt at post whoring......." That was actually the subject of your thread. I think you're being a bit of a drama-queen. Hang around a DZ more often, it'll thicken your skin. The "powers that be" didn't decide you're a post whore. You pride yourself in being one. You start threads like the one above using that term, you brag all over the place about how much fun it is. Do a search and check your threads.By all means go ahead and post whatever you want, but don't be surprised and act like a victim when you get your hand slapped. We're all adults here and we understand that actions have consequences. I'll say it again if you didn't hear me before.... Post whore from time to time if you want, but don't aim to make it your legacy on these forums. I won't look kindly on that, and quite frankly neither does the majority of this community.Nobody wants to see you go...Safe swoopsSangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #18 June 17, 2002 Dear Sangiro and anyone else who is interested,I guess being a New Yorker, my pride doesn't allow comments being made without following up on them. There are 2 sides to everything. Sangiro, you are the Head Honcho and this is your site and I respect that. Some weeks back I took some heat for a post I innocently made. When it was shown to me how offensive it was, I humbly apologized to every party that expressed offense. I received the coolest messages from every one of those people except one. All expressed that "now you know, let's move on". I was really impressed with that. This also showed me the character of the one who never responded. I came to this site in January, very new to this sport and these kind of forums. Like many other's here I am a very outspoken person. This can be a good trait, but it also leaves you open to make mistakes. I learned from each of those mistakes. I really enjoy your website and I thank you for creating it. I have met some really cool people here and it has also contributed to my desire to skydive.QuoteWith all due respect.... I locked a thread of yours because it had no other purpose whatsoever than being a "Lame attempt at post whoring......." That was actually the subject of your thread.And this was different from many others how?QuoteI think you're being a bit of a drama-queen.That's your opinion. I do have to question the opinion of someone who doesn't find a picture of a guy screwing a sheep offensive, but finds what I have said offensive.QuoteHang around a DZ more often, it'll thicken your skin.And you know how many DZ's I have hung around...how? Newsflash, DZ's are not the only place that will thicken your skin. I think life has a funny way of doing that on it's own. QuoteThe "powers that be" didn't decide you're a post whore. You pride yourself in being one. You start threads like the one above using that term, you brag all over the place about how much fun it is. Do a search and check your threads.Like I said, I joined in January. I learned from the best. I also told you in my pm that when it was pointed out to me that I was post whoring, I pulled way back and tried to be much more conscious of it.QuoteWe're all adults hereYou sure about that?QuotePost whore from time to time if you want, but don't aim to make it your legacy on these forums.You don't have to worry, I have much bigger aspirations.

Muenkel 0 #20 June 17, 2002 QuoteThis would be more appropriate as a PM.I agree, however I did PM Sangiro and he did not respond. Instead he put a public message for all to read. "JANE, HOW DO YOU STOP THIS CRAZY THING?"Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 15 #21 June 17, 2002 >Newsflash, DZ's are not the only place that will thicken your skin.No... but DZ's represent the things that go on here really well.... Lets see this weekend I had the privilage of hearing about how strippers just shove the string for their tampon up so they can keep working, got to see a girl bounce from guy to guy all night till one started groping her in the party, more talk of whoreing your self out for gear, how much a stripper gets paid to do certian things. This was a tame weekend too. Most times its way worse then that...Drop the tube...DROP the tube... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #22 June 17, 2002 chris, please, don't try to take on HH!!I wont say it hasnt been done before but I do think this may have been overreacted!obviously I think youre a cool dude! but sangiro is busy and DOES retain ALL RIGHTS to post all pm's to his sight.I mean maybe you and he have a disagreement but chances are it will be brought to our attention.(which in all honesty, is a cool thing about HH)he's isnt trying to be like Big Bro and it shows by him posting the Pm's here. weird in a way,that I should say that, I KNOW!but HH IS a reasonable guy. dont blow this out of proportion.if you post(or even PM) HH about this he WILL address it.a NON-accusational but powerfull PM to him probably wont be posted unless it shows you are being cool too!( it has happened b4)Have fun, Live free, SKYDIVE!!http://community.webshots.com/user/jtval100 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sangiro 4 #24 June 17, 2002 Chris,I guess I could get into a pissing contest here with you but I know that's just going to make you feel even more unhappy. You're picking a fight that's really hard to win. You're not the first and won't be the last to disagree with how I run this site and I'm OK with that. There's no way I can hit the spot for 9000+ people. I'm a pathetic politician! It's not that your posts were offensive (by all means tell us about your farm animal fantasies), it's that your posts often has no substance nor purpose other than to hear your own voice and drive up your post numbers. So all I will do is say again; nobody wants to see you leave, but don't make yourself miserable, move on if you feel that's what you need to do.Safe swoopsSangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
