LouDiamond 1 #1 January 11, 2003 Has anyone else noticed that at times there are just as many if not more "guests" on dz.com than registered users? My hunch is it's all the anti-social, "I had to sew my own canopy when I was learning to skydive" types from over at rec. checking out what the rest of the world is doing. What's everyone else think?"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skycop 0 #2 January 11, 2003 With all the boobie pictures posted lately, I think we could start calling it Stalking! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phatcat 0 #3 January 11, 2003 I drop in to read threads for a few minutes every now and then without ever logging in. It could be other people just doing the same thing. Or they could be chickenshits too, who knows? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyboyblue 0 #4 January 11, 2003 I'd say guests are the skygod wanna-be's skydivers who only say they can skydive and there are more of them right now because most of the ppl logged on are out skydiving as we speak. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #12 January 11, 2003 Maybe it's just fear of asking whether a certain kind of tuna is dolpin safe only to be buried in answers blaming the asker for commercial fishing, sonar murder of whales, catastophic carbon dioxide emissions melting Antarctica and halitosis. Or maybe they are scared you're the REAL LouDiamond. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's because I don't put any hair gel in my hair when I'm skydiving. Plus it throws off all the fans enough that I can actually get my chute packed in time for the next load."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phatcat 0 #21 January 12, 2003 Craig, enlighten me here - you did a search on Clay's boobies????? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
outofit 0 #22 January 12, 2003 i concur! also, if u look at the list of user's a large portion of those who have created a user file r still on newbie status. It is better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Craig 0 #23 January 12, 2003 Well, I searched for "boobies" to see if DZ.com was in the first page or two of hits. It wasn't so I searched within the results for "clay" and it was the second hit. From there I read the post and I couldn't find and instance of "boobies". Confused, I clicked the "boobies" button on my Google Toolbar and it highlighted the word. Thing of it is was that he had used the word in white type (you can not see it) to add some space in his sig line. I just though it was kinda funny Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMO, there are no "skygods." Jump nubers don't mean shit. And, you're only as good as your last jump.BTW, I lurk both forums. I wouldn't generalize "chickenshits", They are everywhere. not just on rec. or Dropzone., but everywhere in life. My 2 cents. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
