petejones45 0 #76 November 4, 2010 Quotewho cares???? when was the last time anyone bothered or provoked you? Let it go already. You look insane. especially getting involved in peoples personal life. you and your friends are internet stalkers and its creepy. I'm pretty sure everyone that was having fun with that site got bored with it a long time ago. too bad you are obsessed with those people. even unprovoked for years you are still harping on silly banter. Just wierd! then just delete your account...Look out for the freefly team, Smelly Peppers. Once we get a couple years more experience we will be a force to be reckoned with in the near future! BLUES!

gjhdiver 0 #82 November 18, 2010 QuoteI am just somebody who knows it all and I won't stop until justice is served to all who are involved in this scam. Those people know who they are and know what they did/doing is wrong. Actually. you're someone with limited grammar and writing skills, who has a bug up his ass. Your post is tedious beyond belief. Simply put, this whole Skyride thing was past tedious two years ago. You clearly don't have any power to affect the outcomes of it, otherwise you wouldn't be wasting bandwidth here. I have no dog in this fight, and I really don't care about SR one way or another. I will mention that in the 15 odd years I've worked at our drop zone, not one jumper has ever asked us to stop taking SR customers or expressed an opinion on them. It's only fait to assume that most jumpers don't really care that much as long as they are getting on planes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, with respect for your opinion that the Skyride issue is not a concern of your's, your friends and DZO, what would happen to your naive position on this issue if/when your DZO is charged as an accomplice of Skyride's business practices. Aside that, is your DZO content with selling himself short by allowing Skyride to take a cut of his and his staff's hard work? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know what is being said to warrant the disappearance of a few posts, but the fact remains - if you know the owner of the DZs is a dirty scheming shitbag raping customers across the country, but still jump at his DZs means you support his stupid crap.

gjhdiver 0 #92 November 25, 2010 Quote Ok, with respect for your opinion that the Skyride issue is not a concern of your's, your friends and DZO, what would happen to your naive position on this issue if/when your DZO is charged as an accomplice of Skyride's business practices. a) He won't be. No drop zone is legally liable for anything Skyride does, at least not out here in CA. You need to do your homework a little. b) Every person who work at our DZ is paid the same for everything. The DZO takes the hit on the lower rate for Skyride customers. The only reason I know who is a Skyride customer is because I do the booking. It's nice of you to consider me naive, but I ran the largest drop in the world for a few years so I have a little insight into the business model. Don't get me wrong here. I'm not unsympathetic to your complaints. However, I do feel that this battle has been lost for some time. You can try to remove Skyride, but they have proof of concept. Think of it this way. When file sharing started, they went after Napster, so peer to peer changed. Last month they shut down Limewire, which no-one has used in years. File sharing is with us now forever. The proof of concept is valid and the legal fight is about two years behind the actuality. Think of Skyride as Napster. While you're wasting time on them, someone is developing something on from it that won't be as easy to tilt at. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
