So if you're looking for a fellow NSer the official proper way to do it is as thus:

Q - "How do you get to chads gap from the bottom of alta?"

R - "Ski Patrol blew it up."

At that point, by the NS code you are hereby required to take at least one run together.

nope!

I never said they aren't worth my time. I just think it would be funny to ski away because I think the whole thing is just funny and slightly absurd. I would not hate them. I would not have anything against skiing with them. I just like fun?

well, those other 95 % might have seen the thread "how to get to chad's gap...", and will know what you're talking about. That thread is famous on ns, and i bet every active member has checked it out at least once.

And skiing away from someone who wants to take a run is fun?

The "skiing for fun" deal doesn't cover your ass when you're being jerk.

being a jerk can be a LOT of fun. Let's be honest though I probably wouldn't ski away, but I'm pretty sure i would not be answering with the official response.

jesus keep your opinions consistent. quit flip flopping back and forth trying to reform around your words to make you seem smarter/cooler. i don't care that your opinoin is different from mine, just state it clearly so you can't say you meant something else, and be content with it.

you just look like a frool trying to weasel your way out of what you said. say something and stick with it, fuck.

every thread that I've seen you have a discussion in you change your point of multiple times, and everytime someone points out how retarded/contradictory you're being, you go OHHHH NO I DIDN'T MEAN THAT OOOOBVIOUSLY, you must be stupid or something! jeeeezeee!

or maybe you dont understand what I am saying cause you have weird preconceptions about what you think I am going to say.

maybe I dont contradict myself and I don't try to "weasel my way out", but rather I just legitimately didn't say/imply what you thought I said/implied in the first place...

This is how I feel. The latter that is.

i agree with this. there is so much light being focussed onto this site of the park scene. if you see a kid like this, you assume it. why? thats what ns talks about, ns is hugely park.

so if you guys have to bitch and tear a strip off of nomen here, shame on you. just cause we ski mostly big mountain, doesn't mean that we have to be on tgr and be granolas.

I chose ns since it seemed nice due to the amount of people in it. but these days i've seen nothing but hate here.

alex_g i just want to say that i've always fucking hated you and your posts
beef on me if you want. i dont care, i'll just listen to my hippy music

a little hipocritical.

I agree about the hate though, but seriously TGR feels to me like it is worse, I lurke over there a bit just to get information and a lot of those guys are dicks.

reveal a different opinion is fine, but just saying that is dumb doesn't work out. If something doesn't apeal to you point out a different idea that isn't contradicting what you said you disliked.

well I think revealing an opinion that I dislike something is perfectly valid, and I don't think I need to offer any countersuggestions.

For example, this thread is about this call out response thing... I said, "hey, are you on NS?" which IS an alternative to the callout, and then I expressed my view that I think it's silly to have a callout by saying that I would ski away from someone who does it to me, which might be construed by some, like myself, as funny, and also a worthwhile post.

So I don't really see a problem.

'Cause its a good idea! 

I live by this quote:  "Imitation is the best form of flattery."

Just a straight good idea, and I think it helps bring more skiers together.

it's probably just because i'm not "in" on it or something, but I hate reading the tgr forums just because of how they call each other maggots or whatever it is. plus one of my least favorite things is people who think they're better than you because their skis are twice as tall as them... i'm pretty much a park rat though so I guess that's just why I like it here. as for this callout/response I can guarantee I wont be able to remember it exists if anyone tries to do it with me, but I'll try.

Sounds like a pretty sick idea to me... cant wait to try it out.

On the other hand... I dont know where all this hate on Nomenstevens is coming from... he is one of the most amicable people on this site... and anyone that has 20K+ posts clearly doesnt hate this place...
