WTF is this a joke anyone who wants to belong can

[Endlessseason]

Meh. I've never really liked the moniker "maggot" anyways.
I just haven't been able to come up with a better name to propose.

what's a "gear swap"?

[Pow4Brains]

Being a fledgling to this board, I have learned a couple of things things:

1. Be prepared to be roasted………JONG……..Roast back when necessary.

2. Posting pictures of naked significant others is highly recommend.


Yeah she's new to the world so cut her some slack cuz it's all you are getting!

3. The re-sale of free shit is not recommended………………Lineskier you are the “world biggest” douche bag. The maggot community appears to be highly self regulated, so you will be called out on the mat when necessary.

4. Shred pow any way possible and drink heavily.

2: the link requires a password that has not been provided. Just the same as not posting the pictures...

4: hepatic abuse not required, but highly encouraged. An upcoming event will mark the fourth bout of drunkenness for me this semester, as I would care for 25% of my intoxicated fun to be with the members of this board.

The board will regulate itself. Selling gear for cheaper to someone with a lower post count/contribution factor probably won't hurt the economics of gear swap.

what's a "gear swap"?

A gear swap is a place to pretend to sell gear and then you don't actually pay for it, and no one actually sells it. It's kind of like a magic trick, except nothing really happens. Ah, damnit, I tried.

[Pow4Brains]

Impressive………..only 5 mins to the pedophile reference. The sad part is I actually contemplated that. Thanx. So far it’s been pretty fuggin’ kool (less the whole lack of sleep thing)

In my opinion the title of maggot is not something that can be earned or rewarded. Instead it is a state of mind. It is that feeling you get when ripping fresh tracks through 10" of powder, and hauling ass on the ice and know that while one day may be better than the other they are both experiences that are unmatched in life.

It is the way you approach life everyday as you do what ever it is that pays the bills. It is the idea that whenever you strap up your boots you feel the adrenaline begin to flow.

When ever a maggot watches a ski movie their legs begin to twitch with energy. When it begins to snow in the fall they get gitty with anticipation and begin to prepare for the greatest season created.

So if you are concerned about a non maggot trying to buy your gear from you just PM him and have a conversation with him....I think that pretty quickly you will know wether the buyer is a maggot or a gapper.

That is all.

[Huckwheat]

< WELCOME TO SUMMER BITCHES>

Summer? There's six more weeks of skiing (and that is just CA lift servered).


True addiction makes you a maggot....be it lurker or poster. I dont know how to measure it.

[Humble]

WOW... congrats on your new addition pow4brains...

[Sphinx]

Heh.



Ha.




Haha.






BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.












This thread is so retarded.

[Max Gosey]

Heh.

10" is a lot to some people. Especially high school girls.

Actually, I'd never skied anything deeper than that until this year, and I've been skiing since I was three. And it was freakin' SICK when it first happened. At least he's stoked on it...

[Free Range Lobster]

I think it's lame that lurkers can just go into gear swap, nab good deals and bail.
If there's low interest in an item and they're helping out a maggot, that's one thing....but not contributing to the community and at the same time taking advantage of it doesn't seem cool to me.

Soooo, what makes us a maggot? Is it just someone who posts here once, or is it someone that becomes part of this community?

I think there needs to be some sort of criteria standard to be met before someone can obtain maggot status. Thoughts?

Frozen can set gear swap so that only people with 100+ posts can see it.

[Brewski2]

A maggot must own a 'Fistfull of PowderMaggots' teeshirt from the old Powdermag.com days Oh the great exodus, the virtual trail of cyber tears when we all moved over to TGR. Does everyone even know that the term maggot came from powdermag Yea its weird, but it stuck. I have to agree that being a maggot is mostly a mind set. We all just like the same shit mostly. I only met one maggot a few years ago, rollgybe I think, and he was a cool down to earth dude who happened to rip on skis. I may not have a huge post count, but I've lurked since 2001. Its a great place to hang out/waste time and hear whats goin on in our crazy little subculture. As for the gear swap issue, who cares! You sell stuff, you make some money, somebody else get said stuff and enjoys it.

OMG NO WAI

[Brewski2]

That was meant for the uber newbies ya smaaaat ass

[XtrPickels]

How about this? When someone asks for "change for a nickel", or "are you a maggot", should that question translate to more than "do you post on the internet"?, or are you a member of a community. The latter seems to make more sense to me.

There is great truth there

Uhh, no shit

[Max Gosey]

When I got here, TGR board members were called minions. Which became magnions. Which phased out all together to the point where we are just maggots again.
