QuoteQuoteQuoteThe ONLY people who have any right to be upset about skyride are the DZO's that think they are affected by their practices
and those of us who have had to deal with pissed off Skyride customers who show up at the DZ and find out how badly they're getting screwed. That was not fun-I felt bad for them
Boohoo. If you are not a DZO, it is not your problem.
It's my problem. I'm just a noob that started a couple summers ago. I know not much about this sport, except that it benefits from volume. The majority of the general public thinks that skydiving is crazy business, like it or not. The sliver that is left over can either be left with a good experience, or have their money sucked out of them by an unnecessary middleman that distorts and deceives in the name of making money off the backs of legitimate, small-time DZO's. If 10% of what I understand about skyride is true, then it is my problem as someone who appreciates this sport and wants it to thrive.

I know this has been said before and I refrain from posting on this thread for this reason (I have slipped up a time or two ) . THE PEOPLE BEHIND SKYRIDE THRIVE; I REPEAT THRIVE ON THESE THREADS. I HAVE WATCHED THEM GIGGLE LIKE LITTLE GIRLS READING THIS STUFF TIME AFTER TIME. YOU ARE GIVING THEM MUCH PLEASURE WITH YOUR POSTS.

AMEN, I cant believe all these respected people in these forums are still replying to this woman that calls herself skypapa.
Come on guys, stop feeding them, it is publicity, all you are doing is giving this chick the chance to advertise her company.
Out of curiosity moderators, at what point do you actually kill this thread as it is advertising?? I thought advertising is against the rules here and this lady is blatently stirring people up to say things so they can try and say the good points about their business while trying to make it look like they are defending their business. This is advertising. I give skypapa one pice of credit, she is a smart woman and is playing everyone like fools.

We're not *all* from Bendovern' squeal, Alabama.
If it were only a DZO problem, that's good enough to be involved in my book, and if this is your position, then right back at ya: if you are not a DZO to benefit from it, why do you care enough to defend?
I recall being told a few years ago by both USPA as well as several distant DZO's that this little problem was basically a "Southern Thang" which didn't concern them (at the time).
So here we are fast-forward to "sooner than you thought," Alabama is one of the few states where their GCs couldn't be redeemed within the hallowed borders but for the fact that they actually have a dropzone here, albeit part-time now...as a matter of fact, I don't think any other dz in the state has ever taken their certificates - not many can say that.

Not a threat of any kind, just curiosity. I know he would act upon it, especially with the contacts he recently made in the states after being in charge of that case where the asian father killed his wife, left his daughter at a sydney airport and fled to America. I am positive that in a small country like new zealand and him as a skydiver that he could put something forward if there were any stolen photos from new zealand. I Imagine they would have some lake taupo photos on one of their sites... Just curious, well actually, its time some sort of action was taken on these people so maybe a long shot is better than nothing.

QuoteQuoteQuoteOk, I understand that I'm biting at a troll, but....
Just know not only is this poster a troll but he's also using a proxy to try to hide his identiy even further.
Troll no. Proxy yes. What does it matter? I am simply stating the facts. Here you go again focusing on something that doesnt even matter.
Hi Papa
Saying your not a troll doesn't mean your not one.
"From the Free On-line Dictionary of Computing:
-----------------
Troll: An electronic mail message, Usenet posting or other (electronic) communication which is intentionally incorrect, but not overtly controversial (compare flame bait), or the act of sending such a message.
Trolling aims to elicit an emotional reaction from those with a hair-trigger on the reply key. A really subtle troll makes some people lose their
minds.
Papa your a official troll

I think we should register some sites they never thought of so we can start getting them off the google pages. For instance www.skyride.co.uk
So many websites outhere where you can call it skyride. We could start websites up like the one mentioned and on the front page admit to ripping people off.

QuoteI think you can get the boot from the forums for calling other users a troll so you may want to becareful saying that. I think she is a regular on the website who is using a second username trying to stir shit up so her and her old hens can have a cackle at the likes of the people who are getting all worked up about it.

You seem to think you may know something others here may not. Out with it, I'll let you know if you are even close. (I bet you are not)

Skypapa, I am not telling you anything. There are people on this site wo know who you are. The thing is that is disturbing about you is that your husband was a goodman.. He loved this website and was one of us. I could not bear to let people know who you are as you would be ruining your a great name.
Skypapa, I hope these people dont find out who you are. You were once a great lady, shame you have to spend all your time sitting at home writing this rubbish. If only you had not got fired and had to move in with your son.

Dont think i am trying to guess. I dont need to guess. I still keep in touch with the other person in your house on a daily basis. They are not very proud of you either.

Very entertaining I must say. But I promise you, you are way off.
Can we get this thread back on track now?
As it is in Kansas, Iowa has done something. Except for few agreed to last season to help a customer, NO IOWA DZ is acepting skyride certs. The force will overcome the farce
if we falter and lose our freedoms,
it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
