What drew me to the site in the first place was the name, Dive BUDDY. It’s about the personal aspect of finding a good dive partner anywhere in the world! (Thanks Greg)
I am very aware of the issues in the dive industry and environmentally and visit other sites for the news and information. My time on DiveBuddy is for the people that like to get wet. To share thoughts on gear, dive locations and fun forum topics...not to be assailed by a sales pitch.
My 2 cents.
