I seriously want to do it. Gear Talk needs to be split into Actual Gear Talk and Just Fashion Advice.

Yeah a strictly gear talk....a fashion talk...and then one strictly for the jibberishish kids and their umpteen million threads about how many hoodies they have....it's pretty damn ridiculous.

this. cause if they called it fashion no one would take it seriously and wold post stuff in the hardware one anyway. and kids will think the softgoods is only for non-skiing stuff whereas it should be fr jackets and pants and whatnot. leave hardgoods to skis, boots, bindings and the like.

It is seriously ridiculous though...since this thread started I've been keeping an eye on the new threads and it's like 70% jibbersagadrop....and most of it is jus "this is what I got".....total mess

And if u post in the jibberish section u lose ur ability to post responses in actual gear talk, that would solve soo many problems

Yeah now there's an"official" denim thread....really?...really?...I'm all for freedom of expression but really?...really?...I'm gonna start a thread about tacos in gear talk...just to prove a point.

The taco thread was removed yet the denim thread remains....perhaps an official underpants thread will make more sense....hmmmm.

How about just deleting "what [saga/FD/jiberish/dildo] should I get????" threads? I think clothes are fine to talk about, but shit like that needs to go.

Or someone could just make a universal combo-question/suggestion/bragging thread, stickied.

I feel like if it was split, there wouldn't be that much traffic to either category, and they'd end up forgotten forums, which would put all the random threads about gear into ski gabber and we do NOT need that. It's not that big of a deal and it works fine right now, I say deal with it.

This! Noobs will still make threads about the coolest jiberish or rarest jiberish in the hardgoods threads. There should be rules for the hardgood forum and if you break a rule, ban for like 2 days?

Not a fan of the ban....unless of course ns is based out of china?...which wouldn't surprise me at this point because they probably make more skis now than any other country in the world....jus sayin...what is of note also is that my sock thread is getting real responses....who's your daddy now huh?....lmao

Why not? Its summer NS, kids don't give a fuck where they post. There needs to be order. With order there is chaos.

PS, NS is a Canadian website.
