Came in to look at this thread as have had two mates do their ACL's in the last two weeks

I ended up here as I am looking for advice on a meniscus tear. I should have known better. Sometimes this place really is like watching a drunk friend sit on barstool and pee themselves.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I do like these forums but we appear to readily tolerate trolls whilst pushing away anyone we feel might contribute something useful because they might (or might not) have broken some protocol. Maybe we get what we deserve?

Funny how people are suddenly worried about the thread when it's been dormant for 6 months until yesterday's bump.

This forum is usually quite sensible in terms of the variety of threads and regular wanderings off topic without some power crazy administrator chopping it instantly.
Not in the least bothered if this chap was marketing himself and if he got any work from it. A community of like minded people should be happy to help each other out in any way and if that includes referring work then thats fine by me. Especially when its an area of expertise on just about the most common skeletal injury in our sport that many of us have had and will in future.
So, please come back@b4d4bing. Just don't, whatever else you do, suggest lending a mate your ski pass for even just one run. Feel free to discuss defrauding airlines, car hire firms, ski hire shops anything you like. Just not a mountain lift company, they are sacrosanct.

Agreed with robboj. If @b4d4bing was able to get some work while helping others, so be it. Can't blame him for it and I think its perfectly reasonable. If someone from the tourism board of Avoriaz or Cervinia or Kitzbuhel came in here and provided advice and insight, would we grumble if their efforts led to people skiing there?

Indeed. And I tend to take as a measure whether people are really worth having around by their ability to sense and adjust to the rules of engagement. Or just go off in a huff at the slightest mild questioning.

Dave of the Marmottes, you make a good point, but i suspect that actually Mark Frame is quite busy enough, and sensibly decided being involved here just wasn't worth the hassle.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

He could have made a minor change to his posting style, apologised and carried on just fine. And would have been all the more credible for it. But he didn't - that's on him not anyone else who was insufficiently obsequious.
Anyway it's a wayneo under the bridge. God knows why anyone felt the need to dredge it up to have a bitch about it again.

@Thesixquidman, actually if you look through the thread, it's only two people who were really bitching with the net result that @b4d4bing cleared off with maybe one or more semi agreeing.
Whilst I've counted over 20 who thought his presence was positive and or wanted him to return

@Weathercam, you could contact him to invite him back as you and others seem to feel so strongly.

Which raises the question implied by @Dave of the Marmottes. Why did he take his ball home? That's a reasonable question.

@Weathercam, I suggest you read the internal brace thread for a bit more context....
and why not invite him back rather than continuing to have a pop at people for an issue, to which only the OP truly knows the answer, over 6 months old?

@Dave of the Marmottes, I'll respond to you - don't think I've had a pop (though have been tempted) merely pointing out the numbers of people for and against 3 vs 20+ - and like I said on the previous page - for sure there was probably some SEO going on, but I don't think it's a big deal in the overall scheme of what he was providing - as many others agree.
And FWIW I have a Knee Consultant as a client so I'm not about to work against him 
That's it now.........

I already pm'd the OP and invited him back, but seems he feels his time is better spent elsewhere.........
