Just joined here a few days ago and just wanna thank everybody out there on NS. Finally after searching near and far for somewhere to share my passion with I landed in the right place (corny as fuck i know) Im just always fired up when i come on here with the massive community of people who share the exact thoughts and love of skiing as i do, not to metion the insane amount of support and tips for stomping a new trick and learning new things. Also the encouragement for a 16 year old who has dreams of one day being an olympic skier in moguls for canada. I know this whole thread is sounding REEEALLY corny haha but just wanna show my appreciation for having a huge community of people to back up what im in love with and the reason I cant forcus for shit in school aha. so from one skier to this whole community, thanks.

I think we all felt the same when we first became "newschoolers".

Welcome dude! I was like "no fucking waaaaay, a website with tons of sick edits!! And all the members here love what I love too!!! Howww!!! Whaaaaat!!!" the first time i got on here.

But trust me, this will soon turn into an unhealthy asocial obsession which will make you the biggest procrastinator of your class...but we still love it anyways
(like right now, i need to study for a fucking english test tomorrow, but I just spend 2h15 mins here already since I started "studying"...Aaaah...NS...)

Check out www.reddit.com/r/skiing also, you will find lots of great content (and considerably higher quality debate/discussion) there too

I would argue the point that you find higher quality debate/discussion there. Its largely uninformed about skiing, so much of the discussion that happens is around very beginner topics.

The problem here is we don't sort forums by up/down votes, nor do we have threading. If you can self-filter the silly stuff the discussion on Newschoolers is top-notch.

I do like /r/skiing, don't get me wrong. Its a cool place to visit - but its by no means a community of experts. This could be your bag, in which case I guess its awesome.

You know the other thing you might want to check out is the Newschoolers Yearbook 2013.

http://shop.newschoolers.com/yearbook.html

Its a collectable coffe-table book that is made up of all the best content from the site over the last year. Great place to get a bit of an idea of what goes on here.

I think you just made a pretty-great case for introducing a reddit-style upvote/downvote system :) Filter out the garbage
