So I got a free subscription to Skiing and was reading it today. It seems Rob does at least lurk. He mentioned all of the bitching that went on on the boards when the announcement of the Whistler tram came out. Who knows what the article will be, but he seemed somewhat derogatory of us in that article.

why should "the collective" care what others think? will someone be personally insulted if he gave the board a failing mark at civility?
the board is what we make of it and if others thought it was bad then they're free to go anywhere else they want. it's not like we're forcing anyone to be here, or to watch boobs, fisting, scheissemovies, meatspinning or gramatically incorrect posting...
oh wait, we are!
can't wait for the write up on AlpineZone though, that'll be an eye opener!

DENNIS: I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take
it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
ARTHUR: Yes.
DENNIS: But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified
at a special biweekly meeting.
ARTHUR: Yes, I see.
DENNIS: By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,--
ARTHUR: Be quiet!
DENNIS: --but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more--
ARTHUR: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
WOMAN: Order, eh -- who does he think he is?
ARTHUR: I am your king!
WOMAN: Well, I didn't vote for you.
Yeah... thats about how it goes around here. Throw in a few pictures of poop and gaping buttholes and many more swear words. Maybe an argument about Hilary Clinton and/or George Bush and you've got it.

Srsly, it is cool that you want to write an article about this message board, but please respect the opinions of many of the people here. I don't want to read about the tetongravity.com message board in a magazine that gets sent to thousands of people. Say 10% of them come and post a thread that says "Hi I'm new here," that is hundreds of threads. I can't even keep up with the threads now. However it would be cool if you came and joined our ranks, and maybe wrote about a message board that you frequent but never gave the name. It would kinda be our little secret, you know?
Just ski down there and jump of a somethin' fer cryin' out loud!

Sorry my bad, I didn't read everything...
Thanks for responding rob, now make sure you get this story in actually on time. A little bird says you have problems with that.
Plus, Mary, why use an alias to call me out. I was wrong. Dead wrong, no need to be afraid.Last edited by Tele'ndaboat; 10-24-2007 at 09:44 PM.

Rob Story, no need to introduce yourself; those of us who are true to this place know who you are.
To better research, you should come ski/bike/hangout with a bunch of us in the different locations that hold the most members. Contact a few folks in WA, UT, WY,CA, CO, BC, etc and stop in; we will provide you a place to stay, feed you, get you drunk, hook you up with skis/passes/bikes, etc.., show you our mountains and trails, share our secret stashes with you, fix your skis/bikes, laugh with you, laugh at you, cry with you, help you get a job, help you find a house, sell you a house, build you a house, introduce you to your future ex-wife, cook you bacon, recommend a good dentist, show you where to "really" go.
All of this will be done in faith that you are one of us and would do the same for us on your terrain, at your home.
Once you visit, you will always have a skiing/riding buddy that you could contact at any time, be it to sharlp or just crash for a night as you drive to Mexico. We don't ask for anything in return but will drink all the beer you leave behind, smoke what you are holding, ask for naked pictures of your sister.
Good luck with the article, we'll be watching."People blame me because these water mains break, but I ask you, if the
water mains didn't break, would it be my responsibility to fix them then?
WOULD IT!?!"

Rob, if you can't be convinced to for go the story, at least wait until the spring issue, and give us a heads up. I'd need to stock up on popcorn and fine malt beverage to watch the carnage of said 10% starting threads "Hi, I'm new here". That could make summer much easier to take. I can see Mrs Anderson from Indiana's face when she gets her first reply. So much for shopping tips from Aspen.

I thought maggot was a metaphor for comparing how we gobble up soft snow like a maggot eats flesh...
