I'd be interested to hear how you might think archiving would benefit the Forums....

Where to ski bum?
SnowJapan replied to Robson's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
seemore, as is almost always the case in things like this, you did not see all that went on - stuff that has either been edited or deleted. It wasn't just about one post either, it was a persistant 'campaign' as noted by a few other readers. I think I also mentioned that he/she is still able to post on here if they want to. And after all that, and even though it didn't come across clearly in the posts, it has got to also be said that we're not mad keen on people coming on these Forums simply "to promote" a place either. It would be good if the thread could get back to something lik -

Response by biri-island to my above post has been deleted. biri island - we don't really take too well to sarcastic/witty comebacks. You just posted two. You are not banned, and you can still post, but if you do decide to post again it will need to be approved by us before it goes online. You pretty much pushed us into that action. Also if you were indeed on here 'to promote Furano', as you said in the deleted post, may I suggest that you went about it the wrong way. Thanks. -

I'm sorry but we've had enough of those kinds of posts in the last few days. If you want to ott bad-mouth a place and do it persistently - whether it's what you actually think or meant to mislead others - please do it somewhere else. Not here. Thanks.

advice appreciated
SnowJapan replied to fier's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
fier Welcome. I'm sure that some people will provide you with some specific advice but it is worth pointing out that there is much more to Japan than Hokkaido and Hakuba, though they are of course very popular destinations. If you want a general introduction to things, here are some starters for you http://www.snowjapan.com/e/start-here.html http://www.snowjapan.com/e/general/winter-sports-in-japan-introduction.html and for reports from some popular areas in recent years http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/nowcalendar.php Good luck. -

If we were to allow one agent/business to post their contact details on these Forums, we would effectively need to allow any and all to do so. It would not be fair for us to allow one and not others and would create all sorts of problems. If we did allow this on these Forums, they would quickly become a place where a considerable number of people wanting to sell their services to you would register and come on here for the sole purpose of selling their services to you, and it would become a classifieds-like mess. We don't think that's best for these Forums. General information th -

No... but very so often we remind ourselves of this. We have this habit of adding more and more stuff to what we plan to add to the site each year. It's happening again, with another run of 'oh and one more thing' that Mr Programmers have to get done. Oh well, maybe one day!

Mizuno no Sawa - Niseko
SnowJapan replied to deanrobi's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Just a quick note. Long-timers will have heard all of this before but please keep the personal insults out of this. Obviously a fair few people have strong opinions about this subject, and that's just fine, but don't let it boil over. [Don't like it? You are more than welcome to not post here.] Thanks. -
Regarding the filter, I think we have just a few words in there. That's all. It hasn't been touched for many years. There wasn't much call for us taking that filter off when the subject came up last week and I asked - in fact there was none. And as I said last week, we don't particularly want to encourage such language on here, I think the Forums work better because of the lack of it.

Where to go?
SnowJapan replied to firstimer's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
My apologies Mamabear ... though we do hear that kind of comment fairly often! -
[Mantas, sorry I edited out that image you posted yesterday - it wasn't appearing anyway but it was bringing up some kind of page error alert in browsers for some reason...]

Look, I know these are often posted with the best of intentions (though sometimes with a rather different agenda), but this isn't a classified listing links thread. And please, just because one person posts a commercial link does not mean that it is suddenly a 'well if he can I can' free-for-all. Thank you. [To make this situation clearer to everyone, I have deleted two posts within 10 minutes that were basically 'we do rental too' advertisements.]
