I'm just fed up with alot of guys over on the X-h2o.com and its not over my problems I had, I know I had them !!
It's the way the site has turned and lost it's cause ..

This site has every means to HELP the sport.. Why not make it better ?

It's that there is sooo many that never even have tuned a ski correctly, tried a pipe or anything close, but are the 1st ones to post up advice to people based on what they have read.. Hence the "keyboard cowboys" telling people what size rope to use, which hand to hold the rope, which size to use, which side to come up a rope a cow, how to coil it, how to train a horse, but have never even been on a horse !

The other thing that "I feel" X-h2o.com is doing nothing for our sport but bring it down is.. They bash on pretty much any company or person for anything.. Hydro-turf,blowsion,pro-tec,atlantic jet sports, factory pipe, MSD, heck you just pick a company and there is a 3 page bash list with people bashing trying to hurt thier company on the X-h2o.com and others sticking up for them.. It's a sad sad thing !!

The next thing that bugs me is on X-h2o.com
Look here !! You can get that for cheap !! Oh why did that cheap thing not work ?? Oh call the guys you should have bought it from untill they tell you the right size and go here and find it cheap !! WHY IS IT THESE GUYS WONT TELL ME ! WHY IS IT OUR SPORT IS DIEING ?? Why dont they give us what we want ?? We only want to copy it, steal it, locate it somewhere and sell it cheaper without doing anywork ! Start another bash thread !!!

Then the guys with a gazillion posts a day post, working in thier shop or office, say how busy they are, what a great year, if that other guy would only have done what I have.. Kharma has cought up with him.. And still post 15 posts a hour.. blah blah blah..

Most of the time over there had my mind only thinking.. How would you know ? Have you ever even tried it ? I hope no one listens to that guy I know that works or doesn't !

There is some very good guys over there too !! But for even them to get to post it gets burried so far from all the KBCB's it's useless.. I talk to alot of the guys over there alot on the phone and am happy to help in anyways i can (if i KNOW !!), and i do ! I

As far as ripped off ?? OMG I have a 18 piece parts list of stuff (I bought over there on my last build) that was junk, with names, screen names, e-bay names that cross over with screen names over there and a list of people that said.. Go ahead and ship the parts.. show your good faith and after I will send the money.. Only to never have them respond again.. Keep the part and still post trash about others.. I was going to post up my 2nd negative feed back in that section but I just thought... Why.. Why waste anymore time over there !

THATS WHY I'M NOT THERE !!
I just wana ride !!!!!!

wow
And I thought this was a great site
No X and I would still be riding by myself.
No Co-Tex Freeride alliance
No 600$ squarenose
No RN from Indiana
I'd still be riding a 650sx

w/o this site, i'd be broke

broke ski
broke wallet


Personally i have learned alot from reading peoples post. their is no perfect forum, and you cant please everyone, but i say hands down this site is the best on the interwebs over the other jetski sites. sure their are a few bad threads, but do they come close to the number of helpfull threads? gotta take the good with the bad. without this site, i'd be the one buying the 80mph 550 on ebay, and once it breaks i'd be burning my money at the $90hr stealerships.
 
I will admit that some people do get very negative towards people, however, this site is AWESOME!! I have learned alot and ( In My Opinion) is much much better than PWC.
 
actually, i'm thankful for BOTH sites. i'm new to both and i wish i had been on here longer. Most of these threads have some great info in them. i take as much time as i can and learn as much as i can from everyones success stories and failures.

as far as bashing the companies, i personally havent had a bad experience yet, (YET), but if i did, this is a great place to discuss it. tell people what kind of service you received, how the parts were, etc. Business is built on word of mouth. we're just typing it so its exactly the same. If the big wigs at the companies were reading these posts, they have every opportunity to chime in at anytime.

last - this forum isn't HURTING the sport at all. this site brings tons of poeple together who will continue to grow the sport. where is the negativity in that?

I have been on and off this forum and in and out of riding for a lot of years for quite a few reasons, been to many of the forums and groups sites out there and they ALL have their ups and downs, but the X by far is the best I have seen in a long time, granted there is a lot of bashing that goes on around here but no matter where you go people are going to have their opinions and sometimes emotions come out over reasoning and cool heads . but this is still the best source of information and entertainment around, and seeing as I havent been around in a few years I can see how much this sport has grown and the advancements that have happened. keep up the good work on the forum, I will always look here for the many questions I have along the way.. just my .02

Butch, leave your sniveling over at the other site.

With out the X I could not be where I am today. Yes-I actually agree w/u, there are some squirrells on here, but, for the most part it is truly what it was made to be-FOR THE RIDERS BY THE RIDERS.

I have nothing but good dealings buying from people here,not one negative thing to say thus far,but then I never bought anything from Nikad, probably why I can still say that.
 
are you kidding me, have you seen the advice given on the OTHER site? anything from couch rider recomending newbies which stand up to buy to a seadoo owner telling another guy how to fix his pv's on a stock 701 since they are causing his lack of power problems :bigeyes::bigeyes::bigeyes:

thats the reason I don't frequent there anymore, I just get irritated tooooo quickly I guess

Speak up ,don't kiss azz
I get irritated at questions like that too but there are still plenty of members that know they're shiat and willing to help out .

I like the tech info here ,it kicks azz .It has almost anything you need to know without even starting a new thread .

Butch, do us all a favor and stick to PWCT and Egay. Of course your 'business practices' do make a lot of other peeps and companies shine in comparison to the crap you pull. :thumbsdown:
