The history is just bullshit, Mike. Snark was just a game to me but I frequently got banned for it sometimes deservedly and other times not. In the grand scheme of things, it's just bullshit about sliding around on snow and life is about one hell of a lot more. Sometimes we say shit in anger or jest that we should not, big fkin' deal. Called make amends and move on.

I kind of get it. I was perturbed by a lot of this nonsense when I first became involved. But I realized I was taking myself too serious. But I don't really love the dichotomy between XCD and Tele. To me it's a weird flex. But, I'm far over that. I wish there was more cohesion in the community, but that's what skiers do. Alpine skiers denigrate Tele skiers. Tele skiers denigrate XCD skiers. Stupid factions. I see it less in biking, but there's still a lot of people who wish to swing their dicks around and try to make it XC against DH. Luckily there's a lot of people who just sit in the middle in that world and don't care what other people think. I think skiing would be that way too if snow wasn't so finicky and fleeting.

Honestly Dostie is probably a pretty decent guy and actually I think Todd is too. Crybar just never seems happy to me and always comes across in a negative way. But until you actually meet ppl and spend some time bullshitting with them, you really can't qualify your opinion of them because it's just based on digits and electrons and, unfortunately, forum drama. I have met and skied with a lot of skiers I bumped into in forums by now and never once did I have a bad time.

You're unlikely to ever meet Todd or Crybar. Forget about them.

Did I say things yesterday that were unjustified toward Dostie? Hell yea, I thought he was unfairly judging the good old gangbang I felt I got. I really do not believe in banning according to vote because that's the apex of herd mentality to me. My anger subsides rather quickly and i really don't hold grudges. When you banned me at Ttalk, it was largely just because Aaron write trolled me into getting banned and we were having a blast!I was not serious about a damned thing. I got banned and Aaron not. So I went skiing with Aaron. When you and I got banned at the Grill, it was because we had accidentally teamed up and were really fucking with FHW. We both got banned. Over time, I began to like Willy in certain ways, but I can't condone serious hate. You, somehow, got me banned at Telemarkeast, because they knew who I was and had been WARNED! even though I had posted there for a year. It was like the kindergarten of Telemark forums, ya couldn't say SHIT if you had a mouthful!

Johnny banned you, for the record. I was not a moderator until after that. I probably banned a sockpuppet you afterward though. Whatever... I'm over it.
If someone wants to ban me, it means they don't want me around for one reason or another. I guess I've learned to take that as a possibility and move on with my life.

How could you? How could you just move on! when your life becomes so meaningless after a fucking banning?

Seriously though Mike, yesterday was completely bizarre; NO ONE on any forum could take or accept a joke or even identify one. I got banned again yesterday and did virtually NOTHING except to try and reason with this Manney which appears to be impossible. I've never seen anything quite like it. He digs around in the forum garbage all day trying to find trash to harm others with. That has been his M.O. since he first appeared at Ttalk. Also I've never seen anyone so quick to pick a humorless fight or hold grudges the way he does. He thinks he's a genius but he's outed himself by logging in with static IP addresses etc numerous times and the real Manney is also known by Johnny and probably others at Ttalk as well. I also would not be surprised if he forgot to use a proxy numerous times when logging in at Dostie's, so there's plenty of info there in the logs too, I would bet. He may or may not login here to stalk Al and Shenan i. a. A couple of new members did join who are using proxies. Which is fine if he wants to actually participate and be decent and stop the bullying and stalking acts but I'm not sure he actually can get along with anyone. Up to him. Also bizarre, btw, how Manney's stories about who is a "moderator" here and how people were coerced to join up yada yada yada are just pure bullshit. Pure fantasy. Mark still has some administrative privileges but other than that no one else. Just not necessary.

Now back to critique. Burp posted this for critique yesterday and what I would have pointed out (had I not been oppressed by threat of banning) would have been: " Cross country poling, diagonal-striding the lead changes. Left ski goes airborne in a big stride, skier goes down. NO EXPERIENCED Telemark skier habitually cross country poles. You may get away with totally slow skiing or on very gentle slopes, but it will catch up." Of course the new me would have praised him for being obviously athletic and aggressive but he's absolutely stuck at whatever level he's at until he dumps the XC poling.

Poodling, a lot of xcD noobs don't know what it means, but here is the VERY definition. It's being sooo spread you have a dog's rear leg. Mind you, I sometimes still get spread about 1/2 this much maybe (as Xmatt pointed out in one of my old videos yesterday) and it can be still less than ideal. You either keep the rear leg under yourself or you poodle. Poodling often leads to using the inside pole to balance. And cross country poling only make it all worse. Ideally your rear boot is under your ass never behind it.

Just back from some fun skiing with a guy from Montana who is breaking in a new NTN setup. Sunny day, snow softened. Mike, fucks sake, Quadzilla is saying you are an Internet "creep".. That's fucking bizarre! How can ppl get this shit so scrambled up?

Yeah, I saw it. That's not all he said. He "knows" who I am.
Maybe I am a creep? Whatever the F that means. I'm not out to impress him, so it bothers me little.
I'll be tuning that forum out, as usual. I only looked in when the mass Exodus from Ttalk started, and continued to see what you were going to do. I honestly didn't read much - don't care to debate about Hiro's ski form. But if that's your thing, go ahead. Why should I belittle you for doing something you enjoy, even if it's not for me? I just skip over what I don't want to read, which re: Telemark, is most everything these days.

They threw me out with Manney, why I really don't know being that I violated no precious protocol when i simply responded to Manney's bizarre attack on me. It's just very odd to me what an asshole Quadzilla became today. It seems likes some weird panic over there to make sure and not be left out on the juicy gossip. Fucking pathetic when grown men are reduced to that. People are so unable to go against herd panic. The Telehiro discussion I initiated quickly spread across all Telemark forums. I knew it would and I thought it was time to try and reduce all the xcD babble and hopefully help the xcD innocents. Quadzilla has no fucking idea who you are or anything about your history otherwise he would not have belched out that garbage about you, Mike.

That Bauerb has fluffed himself up as an esteemed Telemark skier, dumb jokes and all, at Dostie's. He does not even have the basics down! And it's sickening to watch how every member there kisses Dostie's ass. It's just enough to make me wretch.

And why would anyone think Mike is an Internet creep? He has 0 history in that regard.
