  1. Have fun. I have 3 sisters. If they're stupid enough to post boob shots publicly on Facebook, that's what happens. If they're stupid enough to post them privately but share them with people that they don't know and trust, that's what happens. You've either got to protect your privacy, or realize you have none. I realize I have none.

     

    That being said, I probably wouldn't re-post a pic someone else didn't put public view on, particularly of that nature. I assumed it was a profile pic or something, which are automatically public. i also just don't think it's some big cybercrime to do so. When you press upload on that pic, you take on the responsibility for putting it out there.

    I'm with you on security/privacy 100%. I don't have any pics out there that I wouldn't mind being plastered all over the place. In fact 95% of my wall is due to my gf tagging me or checking me in someplace. However, I have to believe that you wouldn't be happy if I started creep stalking your family and posting them in a sexual context. Anyway, nice hot tub pic. I'll know to look for the guy with chipmunk cheeks protruding out the sides of his helmet. Ha!
  2. And I see you unfriended me (at some point). At least you take your privacy seriously.

    I get it. I'm totally with you on privacy. When Doug initially stalked her and requested her she probably went on his page and saw ski pics and thought "hmmm... Local skier, probably not a bad guy... add friend". A mistake I'd even make. No sense in beating her up because Doug's a creep.
  3. What?

     

    I condone people taking responsibility for their identity and privacy. If you friend people on Facebook that you have never met, then you clearly don't care about your internet privacy.

     

     

    I deleted the picture. You're welcome.

    That's a stretch. And should I congratulate you on doing the right thing? Thanks.
  4. I can understand that....I always caught shit from other instructors for being on here.

     

    "Oh you're one of those guys"

    Hence my not liking the attitude associated with any of these cliques.

    PSIA, PASR, Racing groups, Patrol....etc

    Oh, I wasn't even talking about that side of things but that's right. It's a thin line to balance and I'm catching shit on both sides of it. On that side for skiing with GP, on this side for being PSIA.

     

    Let me say this: I'm a skier before anything else and if PASR or PSIA went away I'd still be a skier no matter what.

     

    Either way, the gig is up and I'm honestly feeling like not being a part of either. Been toying with not renewing PSIA for 2 years now. If there's a way for a mod to nuke me off this forum and make as if I never posted on here I'd like that.

  5. You put the shit out there hiding behind a screen name, than get pissy paranoia when your name comes out.

    Welcome to the Internet Dude.

    This isn't that complicated really. Lets hypothetically say that the director of my ski school has in the past monitored discussions on here. Then lets hypothetically say they become aware one of their own is posting on here. Then, hypothetically, say there's a HUGE snowstorm and I instinctively go to the better mountain and skip work... And it becomes known on here because either I posted about it under the sweet sweet cover of anonymity or someone else posts about seeing me. Could be a precarious situation id rather avoid if one's name mysteriously became connected to one's account.

     

    As for being outed for being a ski instructor... I catch a lot of flak here that I can handle but could certainly do without. Either way, Steeze compramised both aspects for me...

  6. Your friend mandie posts about obtaining her level three on Facebook all the time and that's much less private than PASR. I think you'll be ok and maybe you'll even be able to find clients here.

    I doubt Mandie would let you stalk her profile if she saw your posts on here. #Level3creep
  7. Fuck, the gig is up.

    PASR is just a big fucking Internet conspiracy to put your name out there so any and all mountains can have access to your almighty patented, copyrighted, and trademarked instructing skillset.

    C'mon bro' Noone gives a shit wtf your name is.... If you were of any importance on this planet you surely would've been found out a long time ago.

    You're just another peon shit head like the rest of us.

    ..... Someone call Al Gore and get this shit straightened out. He created the Internet and wouldn't stand for any of this bullshit.

    See? These are the kind of posts I read where it would be nice if no one knew I was a ski instructor...
  8. CB offering free tix this Saturday at 10 to anyone over 14 who expresses an interest and is ready to have their skiing tested in a group setting from 1030 to 1230.

    Whats the fine print on this? Exclude instructors from other mountains? They must be hurting for instructors? I don't think the ski-off at Bear Creek had included a free ticket. Blue's definitely didn't.
  9. Are you taking any spring trips up north or out west?? I booked my Denver flight on southwest for April 5th for about $300 round trip..haven't booked rental car yet as prices are pretty insane..hoping they drop. I might book my rental outside the airport at the Avis at the Doubletree hotel as its about $300 less for a small SUV.

     

    I'm going to wildwood this summer with a whole group of fuckery fucks. Haven't been to the the jersey shore other than AC since 2004 when my grandparents sold their beach house in ocean city. I might even have to buy a cheap boogie board.

    Is there really anything going on up north other than superstar at Killy?
  10. Today was a metaphor for the season at 330 it started raining haha

     

    Still really nice day I rode with like 6 or 7 different groups of people....shame it's raining, it's thin weekend I think will be at best single track.

    Seemingly anti-climactic close to an otherwise strong weekend. Great day overall. Glad I got to meet a few new peeps and ski razors bumps for what could be the last time. Managed to eek out 70 days in this mess of a season and, as usual, I feel like I'm finally in "ski shape" when the floor gets pulled out from under me and I'm forced to enjoy hikes, baseball, bbq's, and long walks in the beach.
