This has been a very puzzling thread to read through, as I was late on the all important typical NS Hate scene. If this is all one massive troll, then wow, impressive! Otherwise, this sounds like a lot of young skiers expressing jealously and envy through a semi-anonymous medium such as an "online forum".
For example, this "Zander" member, though from the looks of it, a "pro-active" NS member, is a negative poster or, equivalent to his Splice castings, a "little piece of shit" (sorry to target you, but you made it pretty easy).
From what I can tell from briefly catching up on the subject, Splice Productions is well off. Maybe all the haters such as Zander here, should stop for a second and realize that there will always be people in your life with more opportunity, less monetary inertia and of course, bigger mouths. What does your complaining achieve? Please, refrain from acting like you hold the all mighty and correct criticism on ski edit production, that is just silly. I do not believe NS was invented as a patronizing medium, so why not just support Splice as you would a friend who might talk a little larger that life?
It has been a very long time since I've actually been active in forums on here, so I apologize if this is an awkward post.
Go Skiing!
