    That would seem to be the very definition of a troll. Of course you're now going to tell me you didn't hit every hot button topic you could in 1 post to get your "usual suspects" to come in & flame you.

    It's a discussion board, but when asked about a "narcosis management course" you become self righteous & refuse to discuss it. Another trait displayed by trolls.

    If you don't get the response you want, your rejoinder is just a snark. Yet another trait displayed by trolls.

    The PSAI Narcosis Management course is not the topic of this thread. There's already 16 pages of "discussion" on it here: PSAI Narcosis Management course - 73m on air

    Everything there was to say about it - and more - has already been said. Unlike you with your repeated 'troll' accusations, I don't enjoy repeating myself ad nauseum

    You really have no place being on ScubaBoard.com then because the same questions get asked AND answered over and over and over and over and over.....in fact many people atyou might have enjoyed a shot or two with this....maybe not) get upset when someone voices their disappoint at yet another deep air thread (sound familiar?) or another spare air or another BPW or another online vs LDS.

    I gotta throw the Troll Card on the table too. You are either a monster DB or Troll. You pick.

    Another vote for Troll. (Though I don't dispute the dive)

    If I boasted about a dive I just did then said "PS don't do this" I would expect to piss people off.

    What you're really saying is " I can do it,you can't, because I'm better than you."

    I vote troll but admit that sometimes troll posts generate decent discussions. Not when the troll continues to post though. That just continues the animosity.

    In fact, prove everybody wrong and do more than "tell us you did this controversial thing and then stick your tongue out at us" (that is exactly what you did with this thread) and give details of exaclt why you did this, how you did it, dive profiles of all lead in dives etc.. Help people understand and it might be viewed differently. A troll would not care though . Show people you care.

    Sounds like a 3rd grade schoolyard here.

    I said I don't enjoy repeating myself, not that I didn't do it. Anyone who looks at my post history will see that I have ansered many of the usual SB.com questions about computers/wetsuits/wings/regs/masks many times. I don't mind answering people that post seeking information, even thought it can be repetitve

    Not boasting, just stating. Sorry it pisses you off that I don't recommend people do PP02 2.0 dives
