GT used to be one of my favorite forums to just browse through and now i rarely visit it unless i need gear help. I believe this is because 70% of it is kids making threads about wanting to look cool. Similar to the b/s/t split, i think it would benefit anyone who actually wants advice on things other than "will this jacket be at my knees, if so what tall tee can i get so the layering is perfect", to split gear talk into a forum for actually talking about gear necessary to skiing called "gear talk" and to one literally called "fashion show" in a pink font

i think this would be a highly beneficial change to this online skiing community and wondered if anyone else agreed

thank you for your time

A little fooling around in that thread is ok. I'll be honest about me posting a pic me wearing my new causwell suit that came in. Eitherway, I do agree both should be seperated. One discussing hard goods like skis, bindings, poles, boots, etc., and another discussing soft goods like hoodies and outerwear.

I'd say about 99% of those outwear threads can be solved with a 30 sec google search for a sizing chart and tape measure. Kids are just idiots

The occasional outerwear thread doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when an unnecessary thread pops up about a specific clothing item; while there's already a multi page thread about the brand that produces the item. This should fade away soon though, as NS will all be equipped for a cold winter.

hardgoods and softgoods would be a good idea. i spend wuite a bit of time in GT and im sick of the "what size saga" or "tall enough tall tee" threads.
