Bummer for ski messageboards everywhere

Friends.

As you may have heard, SirSeniorShlarpyShutzzaLot, has stopped posting, no reasons were given by those close to him, probably because no one seemed to be close to him aside from his online side kick ShuttzaLotToo!!

Many of us followed SirSenior from his early days helping found important regional empires which he heroically abandoned when endless newbies just weren't core enough. The Shlarpster made a point, speak my lingo or take a hike, they didn't , but he proudly did.

ShuttzaLot did his time across the wireless domain, a swivel chair warrior who bravely called out Cody Townsend's couloir techniques on TGIR (Thank God I'm Rad) a critique that spawned 72 pages of mindless chatter. But, Shuttz was equally at home offering kindly tips on toe corn trimming techniques and thoughtful videos of falling leaf exercises for the now defunct but widely loved Epochal.

What is less known is the invaluable drivel that the Shlarp purveyed on sites that he and several old time friends founded, let fail, and founded again. SirSeniorShlarpyShutzzaLot may not have seen a backcountry hut or smokeshack but his password online clubhouse was inspirational to a few.

It is a sad day, and we have lost a significant digital presence; but I like to think that if we have the courage, vision and necessary bandwidth (talking to you Ajit Pai) that we can overcome the loss of our virtual friend.

Message boards are the Chat rooms and forums of the early web.... now dead.... hopefully not like the ski season in the SE this year.

jeez I hardly know how

I guess I am going to start a twitter account and some other social media crap as I will probably be writing more this year but i'm not overly pleased about it. I have an instagram account somewhere, I guess I could start there .... bleh
