User: TeamJumpTicket

Reason for Infraction: Spamming and copying the text (First two paragraphs) from the main Home page of Skydive-Info.com.
Banned from the Forums permanently for the 2nd time.

This guy has copied the first two paragraphs from the main page of Skydive-Info.com, and then copied it to his website on his main page without even asking or notifying us. WTF?

Then, he spams our forum here, and then copies the same two paragraphs in a post on the Skydive-Info.com Forums advertising his website. :confused: WTF?

Is he aware that he has taken copyrighted material that we have personally wrote, steals it (he is still currently using it) for his front page, and then posting it here (on our forums) using the same two paragraphs to advertise his site? How stupid is that? Copying material, putting it on his main page, then posting it back where he stole it from?? LOL...WTF? Why?

Do you think he did this on purpose because of being banned a couple of months ago for doing the same thing?
Or, do you think he has not realized that what he posted in the forums was originally from our website?

Administrative Note: Jumpticket - known spammer and has stolen text (First two paragraphs) from the main home page of Skydive-Info.com, and is currently using it in his home page at jumpticket. :nono: Then posting it in our forums using it to advertise his website.

My First Video!!! Sit Fly with Shonda!

lliebler — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 13:25:38 GMT

Hey guys!

I did a sit fly jump with Shonda at Skydive Orange this weekend. She's awesome and (fun fact) also is 1 of 3 people that publish Parachutist! :cornut: I might write a little piece for them now!

This was a great highlight set apart from a very rocky weekend at Orange with a VERY close call still being monitored. :confused: I'll let you all know an update when I feel I have more liberty to share on that front.

Otherwise, enjoy the video, and please give feedback if you have some. This is only like my 30th freefly jump, so I'm wanting lots of feedback.:thumbsup:

:cheers2:

History of the middle finger

nkdskydivr — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 00:15:55 GMT

The History Of The Middle Finger
Well, now......here's something I never knew before, and now that I know it, I feel compelled to send it on to my more intelligent friends in the hope that they, too, will feel edified. Isn't history more fun when you know something about it?
Before the Battle of Agincourtin 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as "plucking the yew" (or "pluck yew").
Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See, we can still pluck yew!
Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodentals fricative F', and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute!
It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as "giving the bird."
IT IS STILL AN APPROPRIATE SALUTE TO THE FRENCH TODAY!

And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing!
