SkierSupremacy rehab & apology

Posts: 33 - Karma: 10
Hey, so a kid I know posted a link to my website on here recently.
He said you guys hated on him, understandably.

Just wanna clarify:
-I'm not a Nazi, and the SS was an evil militaristic group. I just went with SkierSupremacy (SS) cuz I like the way it sounds. Sorry if I offended anyone :(
-I don't hate snowboarders, I just much prefer skiers
-My friend is an idiot

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, sorry to bother you. If you do recall hearing something about SkierSupremacy.com, I just want to apologize on my peer's behalf.
-----------------------------

That being said, hello all! I haven't been on here in a couple years, so bear with me if I forget the etiquette.

Not bad for a blonde hair blue eyed Arian member of the ski community. When are you going to release the white balaclava with a pointy hood? Jokes but in all honesty you have real good web design skills that got me interested but I would never buy your shit because you come across like a dumb preteen with no clue about freeskiing.DON"T POP YOUR FUCKING SWITCH-UPS ITS 2011 RESPECT THE GAME

at first I felt bad for you because you're getting all this hate for something that you clearly put a lot of effort into. and then I saw your logo.

Thank you everyone for your feedback, to help improve Skier Supremacy. We are working on new logo designs to replace the Nazi looking symbol. This was purely a trial and error run. We were unsure on the reaction that it would get so that will be changed. Also the "Why Skiing page" will be taken down, because we do agree that it is a cocky tab, and we do not want that vibe for our company, or sport. Thank you for your feedback, and for helping us work out the kinks in our company.

-sincerely
Head of marketing.

Ya that's the plan. we are going to try and add XL, and tall tee's..but it cant go unnoticed, that this is a starting business, and we can spend all of our starting money on diff. sizes in tees. so i think we are going to expand that margin, but i don't know how big yet.

this company is like a conversation between two 5 year old skiers. creating a company just to put a bad name to skiing just isn't right. and snowboards are actually faster if you want to have your facts straight

I am a very pro-business type of person, and one point I just have to make clear is that your company is a reflection of yourself.  The swastika logo is outrageous and I really hope that no one supports a company who puts that image on their product.

the snowball hate machine of ns at it's finest.

the life cycle of a stupid idea/comment/question/thread on NS:

Dumb post> 3 or 4 people make useful, if harsh, critiques/suggestions > 3-4 people post internet memes or "." to feel cool and/or to up their post count/feel better about themselves > 30-40 people show up 12 hours too late and repeat what's already been said > 5-10 people miss an obvious troll and/or completely misunderstand someone else's post and pile hate on top of nonsense (like up there^)

better idea, You are clearly 15 or younger

so don't try to run a business you have no idea about or end a statement with "head of marketing" because you clearly have no marketing skills besides getting hating on

First, I hope this is a troll. If not...

Dear god, epic logo fail.

What on earth were you thinking.


And WHY DEAR GOD do you still have this site up? What sort of movement are you trying to start in this sport? That skiers should have the same core principles and values as Nazi's?

Seriously, pull the site. Its not borderline offensive, its offensive. You'll learn why when you take high school history.

Everyone needs to start reading all of the comments, because people keep repeating the whole you need to change the logo thing, after i said that it is in the process of being changed. And starting a convo that has already happened.

Hahahahahaha seriously just stop. You obviously have no idea of what marketing is, so please stop signing your posts with "head of marketing." I can kind of see how you were trying to position your company, but it will definitely not work. Spending 15 min on the NS forums would have told you that... If you want to run a business, great, but actually run a business, not some dipshit t-shirt company bashing snowboarders.

Kid people don't just want your logo changed, they want the idea of a company that's sole purpose is to try and show that skiing is better than snowboarding (which it is not) gone. Some day hopefully you will realize that there are snowboarders how slay on the hill more than skiers. Sure there are some weekend warriors who may not be exceptional boarders but I would rather ride with them for a day than some douchey little kid with a shirt that say skier supremacy. You're missing the point of our sport, it's not to go out a ski with other skiers, it's to go out with people who enjoy what you enjoy regardless if they are snowboarding or skiing.
