I've been advised that a jumper received an unwelcome call/contact. This jumper freely posted videos and comments about jumping on several websites.
This information came from a reliable source.
I mention it NOT to out the jumper in question, or divulge too much information about the circumstances.
this is a warning and a reminder to everyone that the real world can reach out and touch someone. they know how to find stuff on the internet as well as us. I recommend posting minimal details, pictures, or videos on any public site (unless you WANT publicity).
manage all risk, not just jump hazards.
the 2 key points...
1) it is inappropriate to share details here about the event.
2) if you don't want people calling to inquire about your jumping, DO NOT openly share pictures, videos, stories, etc, on the internet.
if you want to understand, you must learn to listen. other things will be come clear if/when you ever jump. learn to accept that you will NOT understand everything.
ever been to a party where the parents are trying to have a discussion? everyone is laughing and having a good time? a kid is listening in and not understanding? the child buts in, asks questions, and remains confused? some of the adults appear to get annoyed by the interruptions? it's like that.
on-line restraint. even you, a non-jumper could benefit from it!
