This may be old news for most of you:

http://www.camass.org/

Their website wrote:
CAMASS? What the hell is that? CAMASS is short for the Coalition Against Moshing at Ska Shows, which is pretty self-explanatory if you ask us. We are advocates of skanking and archenemies of moshing, hardcore dancing, and being a jackass at ska shows. Feel free to join the movement; all we ask is that you spread the word and teach others about the art of skanking.

I've moshed a couple times at ska shows. Public Access, The Last Battle and the Flaming Tsunami's as well as the GB cover the Fad refuses to play again. Those mosh situations were completely fine.

A lot of people, including those bands, would argue those weren't ska sets anyway.

I think bragging about or even just saying you mashed hard at any show is a bit embarrassing to say and for anyone to hear you say.

I guess it's an annoyance, but I can't believe someone actually cared enough to expend the time and effort to make this website. Get a hobby, goddamn.
