lostoldaccountI was running a pretty funny alias for a while but got banned after just a few posts. Started up another and got banned after a couple posts.
It wasn’t offensive or insulting or anything and was all in good fun. I thought that was pretty lame.
I mostly just post on TGR now. They have a way more active community that is way more involved with big mountain skiing. Plus absolutely no moderation over there. Unfortunately TGR is going through a bunch of drama right now too.
NS is dying
kingsskierWhats going on with TGR? I usually only lurk the BST and Gear talk forums.
I was following Chups kids bike scam thing for a while. That was entertaining.

eheathMaking aliases has been against the rules for a long time. If you're truly a good alias, no one knows you're an alias, sounds like you were a bad alias.

lostoldaccountNah it was the type of alias that was intentionally obvious
Lame ass rules if you ask me
willysworldDeleting peoples comments is lame end of story and NS is becoming like Fb a censored landscape of boringness and pc bs. Bring back the trolls. skierman where out thou!!
eheathIf an alias is funny, we let it go, there are plenty. You're just not funny, sorry.
lostoldaccountYou have no idea whether or not the alias in question was funny or what it even was.
What is truly unfunny is the unnecessary moderation of this forum, that results with the place feeling like a nanny state. No wonder TGR gets 5x the traffic
TripleXLHoodiesWell, i have a friend who recently made a number of threads and accounts concerning muslims and how they are all bad, they were removed within a minute and the account was banned each time, thoughts on this? Not saying I agree with him at all, but should he have the right to say it?

skiermanWait, you mean to tell me your racist, bigoted friend is a giant fucking pussy that gets "rattled" when his shitty threads get deleted?
For a while I thought scumbag racists and bigots were rational, upstanding folk with zero insecurities... hmm
Really though, your friend can go fuck himself with a cactus. Why are you friends with him? People like him do not deserve any friends unless he wants to join the KKK or Hitler's Fan Club.
.lenconWe should probably make a thread on that topic.. there were a few posts in PWOYM about the social media.. I'll try to find em.
People were saying how you're tagging other people just for followers, stories are linked to old threads, threads that aren't that great, etc. I know a few people were also mad about you saying "New Wave" on social because then it kinda makes it the name when someone big says it. IDK
I like raw footage the best. But then again more thug is good too
TripleXLHoodiesfriend is a strong term, though he is wondering where he can sign up for these organizations....
eheathYou don't have rights on the internet.
milk_manLolz eheath making a case against net neutrality? Nice
eheathI'm not sure how my statement has anything to do with net neutrality, you 100% do not have rights online, there are no rules (hopefully it stays that way). Make a blog and you can post whatever you want, you can be racist, sexist, homophobic, hateful in anyway you want. We have rules on NS and if you don't follow them, we'll ban you, delete your posts, we can do whatever we want. Members accept a user agreement when they join, maybe you should go back and read it.
milk_manI was just kidding, I've never had anything deleted except for dumb threads that got deleted just because a mod didn't see it as being thread worthy. That's the only thing I don't like
