Hello, good evening.

I am, after being a member for several years, now leaving this site.

The reason? It makes me sick, seeing how big, not to say major, parts of our skiing scene and its audience is represented by a bunch of immature morons sitting in front of their computer screens giving people shit for how they look, how they ski, what they wear, what music they listen to, where they live and so on.
It seems like a kid cant even post a legit question on here without being made fun of, or harassed by being called a noob, loser, gay, the list goes on for quite a while.

Its almost scary to see how low the average NSers intelligence seems to be. This used to be a ski community where you could ask questions, discuss different topics without ending up in verbal fights arguing over who sucks the most, and post pictures and videos of your progression without getting 20 comments on how u suck, and how u should quit skiing, and how your pants are too tight, etc.

It's just sad, what this place has become. And to all sane and mature members, thanks for a good time, I've been greatly entertained by numerous forum threads, some that have left me and my friends laughing for days. (constipation thread, robe and wizardhat, etc.)

So, this is my curtain call. Hope to see you all out there on the mountain, doing what we love the most. Skiing, and sharing our knowledge and skills.

much love

Jacob

I understand where you are coming from Jacob, but this is the internet. People dont treat each other the same over the digital world compared to the real world.
I can imagine that all of these haters would never say the same thing in person to someone. But they can get away with it here. Personally, I just view most of the shit talk as funny and not really seeing it as a serious burn.

This thread isn't a skicky for the simple reason that it's by a pro. It's because of the resoponses it's gotten. Granted, the response wouldn't be this way if it wasn't a big name in this sport.

I agree with him, this site has gotten pretty rediculous with the contant hate and bandwagoning, but once you look past the shit, this is a great site.

Let's make it so we don't have to look through the shit to see the good stuff.

Well I am going to be a psuedo newb and say get the fuck out of here. Christ. Its a fucking website! If your going to get all bent out of shape because someone calls you a fag for wearing tight pants than you shouldn't be on here in the first place. Especially considering that there is a 95% chance that the person that talked shit to you in the first place isn't even in high school yet and doesn't know how to spell sponcurred.

People have been hating on NS and quoting how it is nothing but a community of hate since ever fucking 2000-2001 when this site was in its PRIME. Ever since there has been more than a thousand members there have been arrogant members claiming that they'll never come on this site ever again and that they hate it. If thats the case, maybe you haven't realized something, you are the problem! If your busy hating and saying how much NS sucks you are doing nothing more than perpetuating this idea. Stick around and contribute in a positive manner even if that means not posting in the major forums or whatever. These days I find that the majority of my posts find their way into cult forums, but you don't see me bitching and moaning about how NS is filled with hateful scum.

jacob.. i totally respect you as a skiier, you're dope. but don't be a meldodramatic pussy and post some weak ass message making a huge deal about never coming back. if you can't handle the shit people say on here or have a sense of humor about some of the funny shit people say then this is not the place for you anyway.

Its the fucking internet! theres plenty of helpful info on N/S and plenty of good things about it, if yer not some EMO pussy, you can learn to IGNORE the stuff that bothers you. Theres more and more idiots in My park everyday and more and more idiots skiing everywhere everyday so why don't we all pull a "Jacob", claim to be "over it" and quit skiing?!?! so over it infact that he (as Mr. Bishop said) logs on as guest to check this shit.... WACK

I dont understand why you would just quit the site. thats like givin up on 100% of your fans. instead of being like i am out, this site has changed, why dont you do somethin about it and make suggestions and or moderate the forums. Plus you guys wouldnt be agreeing with him if he wasnt a pro skier, if i came on the site and said ok i am out... you guys wouldnt care at all and i would be made fun of.

Its all because everybody has ego issues and has to bring other people down to make them feel good. If they were truly good they wouldn't be so negative

Dude. That was a brave thing you did there. Newschoolers needs to unite under the ski unit and live in harmony. Jacob you are sick and it is a great loss to this site and to the webb community to so you leave us. I hope you find rest in your new post newschooler life. Good luck and goodbye brave Jacob Wester

Commander of the ski unit

If you've been here forever, then why haven't you contributed........exactly...
And do you know how many little fuckers this thread has gotten to realize that they act like little insensitive shites on this board? A LOT! I can see a 50% improvement in attitude already...
And another thing...I owe a lot to this website..It has given me a place to congregate, it has given me exposure, it has allowed me to socialize with some of the big names in the sport, which in turn has gotten me where I am today with skiing...You are correct, it is: just a website, but if you here from day 1 like you say, you would know that 4 years ago it was a totally different place...a place where EVERYONE went when they were done skiing...where you could have intellegent conversations and argue like rational people...not a kindercare for 10 year olds who probably don't even ski yet.

DOUG,

what was the point of that? ive talked shit, everyone has talked shit, but you as a mod who is "Scared shitless" for your job maybe should set the example dont you thinK?

you need to grow up, rather than going out of your way to try to flame someone for their opinion on your site.

Maybe after all it is the mods who ultimately feed the death of ns. im not out of here, but im sticking to the cali board where things are always chill.

The point is that Jacob isn't just leaving as boldly as he said, he's coming back on and looking at the message replys he's gotten. If he's going to start the whole shit-fight, he may as well stick around and talk it out with everyone else.

Wester is just ONE out of however many members, but he's a big pro now, and he just condemned this site, which is Doug's life as of right now. Doug has every right to call him out on being a creep about it, it's his source of income. If Jacob really wanted to help out, he would have done so, not just started some stupid internet drama that strokes his sensitivity, lol.

Doug, that IP thing was magic.
