It all comes down to, "sure you can dive with me! surfacing, however, is another matter if you're a jerk!" I have no problems diving solo. Be an idiot or unsafe (same thing really) and I will.

You weren't at Blue Springs this past Wednesday, were you?

A guy surfaced just off the dock we were at and his hood had devil's horns on it. I told him I liked that... but I didn't know if I'd dive with him (ha ha- humor- no preaching please- calm down people). He said the same (similar) quote... I'll dive with anyone- surfacing, however, is optional...

I still can't click the smileys... but if I could I'd pick the Lol laughing so hard he's crying pointer.
 
i have had many bad dive buddys well they werent so much bad but inexperances one thing i can recommend to all divers is when your diving with a stranger start with the basics do all your checks like you learned in open water i had thing happen like a dive buddy being over weighted and not havng control of there gear make shore you go over your dive plan i planned a diver one time it was my 3 dive of a day i was diving nitrox and my wife didnt want to go for the last dive so another diver asked me if i would dive since he had no buddy and i said yes i told him i couldnt go past 40 ft he said ok i went to 40ft go leveled out and was watching him as he came down and as he want past i spend 10 min trying to find him at 110ft as he was freaking out spit reg long story short he didnt tell me it was his first dive out of his open water class and that he never dove fresh water he was 12 pounds over on lead plus first time with steel tanks//////update after i stayed out of water for a few hours and flushed with o2 we go him straight and did another dive that day /// so dont be afraid to offend anyone ask them if thay dont under stand you dont want to dive with them you can never be to safe

Mirrocraft... Please don't take any offense to this... as none is meant... but please use some punctuation in your posts. It makes them much easier to read. :D That post (and another you posted in another thread) was very painful on the eyes without puctuation. :wink: Again... please don't take offense.

Again... no offense to you. :wink: I'll give you a break now. LOL

Oh... and I gotta give you a break... I looked at your profile and I see you're a Marine! That means you know how to AIM and SHOOT!! (Hopefully better than you type)LOL :wink: But I'll take your word for it! LOL :D
