Replying to Man Newschoolers Has Changed

i remember the first time i came to this site i was just searching the internet for ski related video clips. when i came here, let me tell you, it was nothing to special, and i ended up going elsewhere to like sasfilms and skiingmotion. the thing that pulled me back were all the changes that i saw when i stumbled back here, and the forums and stuff that helped me keep in touch with all the ski related stuff. now, after all this time the site is much more complete but seems to be losing some of its core feel. i guess its just a catch 22 with more and more people gravitating here. Thanks to all of you that put time into the site like NoPoles and such. I guess there's not much point to this thread, but i just felt like rambling on. and others remember this site back in the old days?
