    Poll: Move local conditions threads to Snow Conditions and Weather forum?

    This has come up a couple of times. The one thing that has changed/improved in the last year or so, imho, was starting the PolyAss forum and having the New Posts search not include that forum. And that forum seems as lively as ever.

    Anyways, the idea is to get ski/snowboard more aligned toward stoke. In the future, there may be a reorganization, including subforums. Ski/snowboard could have separate subforums for TR's, local conditions, etc. This was proposed and briefly discussed in this thread.

    In the meantime, what's the collective think? Move them? Sticky them there? Allow a local stoke-only thread in ski/board? Leave it the fuck alone?
    thanks for the feedback.
    Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
    And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
    It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
    and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

    Leave it the fuck alone. The Wasatch thread has, and always will be about everything (stoke, anti-stoke, jong fest, observations, microscopic evaluation of snow crystals, spraying, tr's, whatever).

    We don't need type A clean freaks reorganizing TGR to fit into a neat, clean, obsessive compulsive little box.

    Move them. Also, these snow in the PNW and ec roll call threads need some sub splitting. They are too broad.

    Nothing will ever change here, despite "rules" at the beginning of a thread. Get over it.

    Move the threads. Everyone who creates a thread that starts with OFFICIAL is a complete tool. Same with 12/13 Butthurt threads.

    A local, stoke-only thread? Hope you have time on your hands to keep those moderated or they'll just turn into what we have now.

    This is a solution in search of a problem. Leave them alone.

    Can we have a SW Montana conditions and updates forum?

    And I voted "Who gives a fuck anyway".....

    That was a subcategory
    I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

    don't move em. those threads don't just have conditions in em.. its all in a single thread anyways its not like its bogging down the front page.

    Unless, we made a subforum JUST for the rollcall/whats up/stoke/everyfuckinthingelse threads..

    How about an intramountain-west OCD Douchebag forum?

    True dat. Guess you would use Strava hybrid app for that and Epic Mix brah.

    VBulletin can use a point system. Splat, turn that on so we can get our OCD on!
