Oh heck, we know you Steve, just put 2 years



Fine, I'll round up. :P

LOL ... not that it matters (because it doesn't), but I am slowly catching up to Sunshine. :o Of course it doesn't help that she's currently on the injured reserved list. :S


Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

One other thought, obviously,the mini-profile is already adding more length to each post box.. maybe dropping last logged in or the incorrect born on date would free up a little room.



I'd second that. The last logged in time doesn't hold a lot of value (IMO) and also could be a way to stalk (although I dunno if the invisible option will carry over) .BESIDES, your post is right there, with a timestamp anyways. it would stand to reason that you are logged in when you make the post.

just a thought, but instead of registered date, how about a title instead? Kinda like:

baby(< 3 months)
youngster (<1 year)
teenager (1-2 years)
adult(2+)
old fogie (been here forever)


Time in the community (DZ) does have it's value IMO. As I've already said about newbies in a previous post, it's handy to help filter stuff,especially trolls.
On the other end of the spectrum, I would personally put more weight on someone's opinion that has been here a while as opposed to some newbie who has 5k jumps but just logged in yesterday.
Put in another way, if I'm at my home dz, I'm going to respect someone's opinion that has been around for awhile as opposed to some visiting jumper who says he has 5k jumps but no one knows him.

The last logged time is a bad thing. I'm set to invisible because i was seriously being stalked before. Someone would notice i was online and PM or call me saying he knew i was home cause i was online. Freaky shit.

Dude I predict you will catch up to, pass and then leave me in the dust in jump numbers before you've been jumping for 3 years.

You people that can afford this sport really piss me off sometimes. :ph34r::ph34r:

I am 100% with Sunshine on this. If I choose to be invisible, it's for a good reason.

I can't really afford this sport, I just happen to bust my ass at the DZ all the time to pay for it.B|

You put a curse on me didn't ya? You're so evil steve!! Geesh, didn't you hit like 100 the same time i hit 500? Being poor and injured sucks man. Once i'm healed, me must jump together. I have 2 pics from our last jump together hanging on my wall. You're fun. :)

I'll know that feeling very soon... by the first of June if the weather gods will cooperate with me.

And even better I'll know that all but 120 of my 1000+ jumps weren't tandems. :P:D

Just fuckin' witcha Dave - big congrats on the four digits. I'm way impressed with how far you've come in the past couple years. :)

And I'll third. I can't really rationalize why I set myself to invisible (I haven't had problems with stalkers or anything), but given the option I'll always turn it on. Putting my last login on all of my posts sort of defeats the purpose.

Hmm. I actually registered with my regular name before I did the Deuce thing.

Hmm.

It is odd, though. I cannot go to any Dropzone without someone coming up and asking if I'm "Deuce". The first one was Lummy at SKydance a couple years ago, and just last weekend on the Lodi big ways.

Pretty good, I guess, but I do miss the postwhore titles.

This chickenshit puss can go through an airport metal detector and not set it off



:( I can't.... :(



Oh Sunny, not to worry. I had a ton more metal, and I never set off the metal detector at the airport.

but if you do set off the big red light, can you stick your leg in the machine so they see it's only pins? :P
