maybe i'm gruvi
Yo Gruvi! I surf Belmar as often as I can get out there. I would be happy to paddle out and show you the ropes. You don't even have to get me a pizza! Looks like we might have something on Sunday afternoon. I could paddle out after church if you're around. PM me. Later!
dont expect a pm from a real person....this guy's a fake
really? I thought Micah vouched for him in another thread and it's been determined that he is real, he's not yankee and he just comes across as a little quirky over the net???
Well, offer stands. If he takes me up on it I will let everyone on here know if he's for real or not. i can't promise I won't throw a backside bucket on his head though... make it rain.
what happened with Yankee anyway? Did he have a meltdown or something? When he first came on he seemed like a pretty good member of the forum. Unfortunately I hadn't been around much because of work and I checked in and all his posts were trying to tear someone apart. Didn't seem like the same person... I'm assuming he's banned?
Welcome to all the new folks!
i don't like not knowing whats going on, and who is who. i don't buy it frankly, no one could be that naive, right?
Thanks Wally, I appreciate your offer! Sunday is tough, actually not doable, as it's my weekend to work in my hospital. I am hoping to go to Belmar tomorrow, Friday. I also have off on Monday to go in case the rain is too much for me for Friday.
I wish the dudes that think I'm not real would just relax. I'm real unless you like to believe in apparitions, and finding out I'm real kills it for you like it did when you discovered mom and dad were Santa.

After careful reading Gruvi posts seriously felt he was being misunderstood while some so eager to dispel if he was the really a newbie or scam mer with a new identity yet his writing style was not unique to names mention.In spite of all the drama, he's got some "guts" answering accusations without so much attacking those who were questioning his authenticity. After 154 posts under the microscope, for a newbie, he handled himself well, deserves a metal posting toe to toe with some of you.You didn't beat him down so shows me he has strong character traits some of you might want to take into consideration.
What's sad, conversing with other surfers on and off the sand, they appreciate Swellinfo wave forecast yet the reputation of the forum is less than stellar. Maybe this episode can be used constructively offering some "new life" to this Forum to reevaluate posters rush to judgement creating a bashing party atmosphere as entertainment. I hope most will agree Surfing is a culture, a positive force in our lives but how/why we allow ourselves gratification to pursue/persecute each other in such a defamatory way puzzles my mind.
Just my 2 cents, as I've said before, I'm an old guy, don't rule, some might shrug me off as Kooky, that's OK 2, after many years just a different outlook on surfing and life as a whole some might agree and hope others deem beneficial.

Come on man, Gruvi is none other than IceyBeatzJosh returning to the forum after completing some writing classes. IceyBeatz is taking his revenge on the forum for the shunning he received. Welcome back Mr. Beatz.
