Yep one of my regular visits each day has been the weather threads over at Mizu’s new stomping grounds (I have to give the weather nerds credit they do seem to know their stuff). As each day passes I’m getting more excited!

where’s the bear gone?  was wondering what happened to him.  I did see a post of his on ski.com.au

That’s where, last I checked nearly 1k posts in a month

haha is he trying to become a post god there too?

Hah yeah he certainly hasn’t slowed down but they are less tollerent of his !!!!!! than we were here. I still think it could be an elaborate prank as he’s listed as a “skier” in his profile.

Because if Mountainwatch had purchased Snowatch, it may have been redesigned NOT to look like it was hurriedly slapped together by a 12 year old with NO recognizable design skills whatsoever - but you’d still prefer it to look just the way it does now?

Or are you saying you love the Mountainwatch site?

Actually a mate of mine is his current web designer (not sure how much input he was allowed to put in though!) a mate i knew outside of snowatch not through snowatch.

But becuase I think Frog is a tool. And i love The Grasshopper perspective on things.

Frog was offered a job if the purchase had of gone through.

Chucky I am enlisting the power of positive thinking not that I actually believe Snowatch over MW bud.  Give me more “powder” this weekend, I want it knee deep everywhere, I will head up the hill at 6am and hike Guthega ha ha!

The thought that anyone would actually WANT to associate with some of those deluded, sanctimonious, ignorant, superficial wankers over there just astounds me.

You’d find a better class of people in a maximum security sexual offenders’ prison than you would at ski.com.au.

Feel free to quote me on that.

I just keep an eye on the weather forum, chucky.  I have no plans to go drinking with them.

Its sad Tobes, I have meet a lot of great people through snowatch - some I even class as some of my closest friends.

But the disgusting display put on when Sarah Burke died at the beginning of the year (plus a couple of other things) made me never want to view that site again.

I didn’t do a Mizu and ask for my acct to be closed though because if I ever hear of them doing something like that again i will be speaking up quick smart!

Oz - I personally haven’t seen anything nor do I know what you are talking about, I’ve not spent much time over there recently although I do check the forecasts on a semi regular basis.

Without knowing anything about the situation it does however strike me as strange as SW is generally usually very PC about everything. Again, I am talking about something I know nothing about.
