Do people who lie in their profile bother you?

I guess maybe it's just me. But it's annoying to see someone with a Z license or 45,000 jumps and 4 years in the sport. Also, when they put some crazy ass gear. >:(



Unfortunately there have been a couple of incidents on here where a poster had to suffer some pretty sever repercussions when the content of his posts were revealed to an employer. Some of us have taken some security precautions as a result. Generally, you should not take any advise from anyone here without double checking it with a credible source.

so, let me get this straight.....

some geeza spends all day posting on here while at work, and gets the sack for it... then everybody is suddenly up in arms as if he's done nothing wrong?

"but he's a skydiver, he is one of us and can't do any wrong"

It's also for other security reasons. A long time ago I had a lot more info on my profile and due to hackars, spyware, etc. you can't be too careful about info about yourself on the web. It could always be used in identity theft later.

Now, I left it truthful, but vague:)
Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Nope, that doesn't bother me at all. What gets to me is when posters don't put a space between the body of their post and their sig line[:/]

I've got a lot more than 45,000 jumps.

Number of Jumps: 103
Years in Sport: 1
Disciplines of Choice: Freeflying (993802 jumps)
Swooping (754000 jumps)
Gear
Container: Vector III
Main Canopy: Safire 135 ft² (5.19 lbs/ft²)

Stop being so jealous.




On a more serious note, you must have a lot of free time on your hands to be getting worked up over something so trivial.

yes, the penis reduction operation was a success .... 14 inches was too much for the ladies, 8 inch is much better
