Apparently we delete posts all the time, and we are family-friendly, and are too corporate with too many ActiveX (not sure what Scott is talking about there at all) controls.

The standup world is so small, we don't need two (and pwcone.com is a new one in the works also I guess) sites. The only goal I've ever had was to try to keep the standup world together and grow it, so I'd almost rather shut the x down and let them have the headache. Unfortunately they are using phpbb which sucks IMO, it took like 4-5 years for them to come out with a new version. There is a reason pwctoday (Rob) switched away from it back in 2005.

We've actually made a lot of changes behind the scenes this year, we have a 'steering committee' of like 15 people now that are all volunteers from all over the place, and all riding styles. Paul Lehr has not been involved with running x-h2o since last year and yet people still think we are running this place to promote LPW. We have no advertisers anymore, we are fully supported by the Ebay ads and are earning enough money to send 100 stickers to each freeride, of which there are a TON now.

Anyway, if everyone wants to jump ship, we'll do it the right way and shut this place down.

Dont do it!!!!

think of the bunnies!

I suspect that the only people that will actually leave this site are the ones that are stirring up the junk. Others may join and check that site, but we live here.

Theres an old saying that says ( You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them not crap in your yard )I think it may apply here somewhat.

Come on Darin, you know most of the people are staying here, they might play on some other sites, but their heart is here. F***, I used to "moderate" SkiNaked's PWCLive.com and I have accounts on all the major PWC forums and some more. The X is the site I visit religiously on the daily basis. Check out my profile on the PWCT (almost 5K posts) or rsjs and see how often I post there.
The X has become the "funnest" site for me, and even if I decide to join another forum (which I doubt for the lack of time or desire), I'm staying here until you or that bird Penguin kick me out.:deal:

I'm with the Mexican.
 
that new site will just have the same people blabbing about the same exact topics as the X, to me its pointless to start another site, we have all we need right now.....

I visit all the sites: x-h2o (mostly!), greenhulk, pwctoday, wavejunkies.com, and I've checked out the pwcfreerider too.

Most of my time is here. I do go to pwctoday to talk about sxrs and republicans:kiss: and wavejunkies to talk smack with the virginia folks. However, this site has tripled the freestyle community in the last couple years and started the giant Freeride movement. There are now 14 large freerides!!! In 2004 there were only two!!! :naughty: Those freerides are what makes this sport killer.

There is NO other sport in the world that you can go to a ride and rip it with all the pros. That makes us unique and better than every other sport out there. It is okay to have other sites, but we all have to stick together and stop any 'us vs. them' stuff before it gets too crazy. Every site has azholes that stirr up ******** when they start to get big...and I am sure that one will too if it grows. Either you get a bunch of negative sheeot stirrers turning everything negative or you have to cut some stuff out.

I think this site has walked that fine line very well... :dance: :woot:
