Ah!
Talking about past flamers and their treatment
The thread could veer into a far more interesting direction.

FoKiten would be welcome on my forum anytime!
Most people can't appreciate someone's ball busting writing style. I do it all the time, and yes, most people don't get it, so I am considered a "hater". Either way, if it makes you think a little, it's mission accomplished.....
I don't put a whole lot of weight in what someone thinks of me who doesn't know me, or bases their opinion on something I said on a forum 8 years ago.
I see forums as an extension of the beach- you bust your buddies balls and he busts you back. No harm, no foul as long as you aren't spreading lies. or "writing checks with your mouth that your ass can't cash."
Since the beach (and forums) became all about the money- suddenly the fun and games were OVER and cracking on someone's cyber-alias was no longer acceptable..... There were some serious problems going on back them, and having a moderator editing your posts without consent made it even worse. (that was not on this forum, BTW.)
Along with the advertiser/friend favored moderators, came the loss of interest in forums. It used to be a great problem solving tool and encouraged honest conversation. Look at what has happened here in Florida since the communication stopped- problem kiters and irresponsible retailers operate at will, because they know that there's no responsibility to the community. Don't want to face the heat- just avoid the forums.That is the standard now and many of the bans in S. Florida are the result of not working through the problems.
I have always suggested to read them like the Sunday Comics, it's much more entertaining.

If you'd like to make an impression, have a valid point and be able to back it the f-up.
argu is something you get in the veggie section at Walmart, it's as cheap as taters...
My gig here as seen by me, was combating the hype.
I was anti hype, anti promo, anti beach teacher I was-- pro deep water tuition and telling the sad truth:
" the longer you do this (kite) the more immune you become to fear
WHY? because you're better than you were as a rookie...
The thing that does not change though, is the hard fact that "you either see it coming or you take the hit..."
What I'm saying is once you're yanked it's already too late---see-ya!!
..., and if you're close to shore it just might be your ass...
and that's exactly where just about everybody (STILL) likes to bust their signature moves...
nothing has changed here except you don't talk about the important things any more...
we got dead guys stacked like cord wood, and less than half of those "were" <<see that?
newbs...Still
there's no doubt, no matter your skill level you can die doing this, and that's why I am / was / will be anti promo, anti hype...anti beach lesson
enough..
I've other fish to fry
