This is in regard to the frontside boardslide picture I have up from Mammoth November 12.
This is what one such member typed commented.

ummm... you should learn the difference between a frontside and a backside before you post a foolish comment
RobbieG -
Buddy, I was skateboarding when you were in diapers. LITERALLY. That's backside.
Agent-G -
Why dont you do a google search on frontside boardslide and see what comes up. Just do me that favor
RobbieG -
*silent, no responce*

Your silence tells me you either did what I said and found out you were wrong, or you just decided to have ignorance as bliss and not find out either way.
Look, I dont mean to come down on people, or seem rude. And I am sorry if thats what this looks like. But on this site there is a bunch of half assed snowboarders consumed with terminology. Let me ask you this, since you have been skating since I was in diapers, does it really matter what the title of the trick is? Cant you just look at a picture and either respect the photo, or not like it? Thats what I try to do. I take the photo for what it is, or isnt, not because I dont like the name of it

*silence again, do not hear from him again*
This is what it all comes down to. These kids on this site who have to nit pick the terminology of some f*cking trick. Seriously, who cares? Does it matter if the the name is right or wrong? does that change the picture any? Does it change what is really happening? No, alls it does is one of two things. It does one or both of these things: shows everyone else what a dumb ass you are, or it just insults the person who's picture it is.
If the picture sucks, then who cares? There is really no reason to talk shi*t on the person. There are enough other things in this world to argue about, like how ski patrol can be the nazis on the mountain, or how rising ticket prices affects the locals. Saying, "that's not a frontside corked mute 5, he is grabing indy" Just makes you look like an idiot. I say if it is a good picture, give the guy props for a good trick, give the guy props for a good quality picture, and dont sweat the little things.
