What happened? I didn't see much inappropriateness within the thread. Some funny comments, but why the "lock-out". Did I miss something? Was someone from Charleston or New Jersey so offended by the comments that a "lockout" ensued? Did President Obama see the red bat phone in the oval office light up because the SI forum was getting out of control? I know this is a tight community on here, but really, I don't think anyone on the planet cares what we say back and forth on a surfing web forum. I doubt the price of tea in china just sky rocketed because they thought the second US civil war was coming because a couple guys from SC on a surfing forum said "The South Will Rise Again"....
Not a great place to vacation... Trust me... I've been there... Two things I learned from my vacation in dirty jersey 1. If you go- bring lots of money to spend at the local stores 2. Forget the board at home. No waves and cold water...
Gen John Gordon said the guerrilla war could be maintained from there. Don't any ya boys git any ideas ya hear
I reported my own post a coupe pages before the closing. I said the thread had degraded to insults an was no longer civil. I am sure that wasn't the only reason though. I always thought it would be better to close a thread, than it is to argue until someone gets banned.
It wasn't even a geographical debate anymore, just insults. But kudos to brewengineer for being the bigger person.
Which one of you NJ'ers won the Powerball? Can you spare be a couple of thousand dollars for a Mentawais Boat trip?
Groundbreaking Update #3: ..... It is still dead flat here in S. Fla. I almost want to put up the white flag, get on I-95, and go to LBI to visit my Jerzy Boyz for some waves, babes and frivolity. Almost. Nonetheless,The Dirty Souff still rules, and Snookie still drools! Stay tuned for more riveting updates from this corner of the Bermuda Triangle.
