ENOUGH WITH THE OUTERWEAR THREADS

they are getting way to out of hand. Every day some new newb makes a new thread asking what size saga to get, or if first drop is cool, its getting fucking annoying. Why can't you retarded 15 year olds use the search bar or go to a company site and look at a size chart, hell, i'll even link them for you

http://www.lethaldescent.com/tonicsizechart.htm
http://www.firstdropouterwear.com/fd/outerwearspecs.html
http://www.sagaouterwear.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/OUTERWEAR.jpg

now if you feel the need to make a thread asking "oh im 5'8" and want xl saga, how will it fit" go ask your dad where his tape measure is, and compare the size to your current gear, or searchbar because i guarantee someone your exact hight has made a thread before you. What ever happened to when GT was a place filled with reviews of skis or solid questions about hard goods, not pages of shitty threads on trend whorish brands that you all freak out over.

I think one important point we're also missing here that hasn't been mentioned is these threads seem to clog up the Gear Talk. Even if you don't open them up the entire forum is affected. It would be one thing if there was one Last Drop thread or Saga thread, or "How does this fit" thread but there is always 10 of them. The results then are tons of valuable threads getting pushed down and forgotten. In the main ski gabber if you made threads this dumb your karma would be zero and everyone would flame you. So that's what I think is most frustrating about coming to the gear talk page lately. Valuable threads being pushed down until they're forgotten.

thats not the idea. when they ask theyre trying to get your approval on what to get so that they can be "ill" to others on the mountain
