Lambone

i thought you were done here?

they shulda just busted out the cell phone

it's my fuckin thread...you get the fuck out...jeeze

I could also post some of the other PM's I have gotten from other moderators in the past day....choughKURTcough... not as subtle as Alex's "why don't you just quit climbing" message, but the type of verbal abuse you'd come to expect from those involved. Bottom line: I think alot of the cc.com moderators suck...not all (some are my climbing partners), but most. In their own minds they are "holier then thou." You need a snorkle and fins to wade through that shit in their private forum. Which is exactly why I quit.

Lambone- Most tragedies start off with a bad decision following by some bad luck, and some "shit happening". They all have numerous chances for a good decision to be bad/different actions to have been taken that would have averted the tragedy. WTF? huh?

whatever "bro," you made your feelings towards me pretty clear several months ago. you know damn well I aint somebody that take yer advice kindly...pardner and why are you suprised? I told you straight up how I felt about your advice. You suprised I posted it here. I guess you shouldn't have been.

wow dude, looks like a rad trip!

I'm not clear on the difference between basic vertical and advanced. I mean I've never been trained on helicopter rescuse (been involved in one though)....But I know a bit about rigging and hiosting?

dude coke is bad for you, you should stop drinking that stuff for a while, take up milk or water.

awh, come on minx this was just starting to get fun. hope I provided you guys something fun to bitch about in the mod forum. don't deny it...I know how it goes in there. peace love and all that warm fuzzy shit.

regardless of whether or not you can freely read other's PM's are you telling me that moderators don't post PM's they recieve in the private forum for all the mods to discuss? so it's ok for you guys to do it behind closed doors as long as the sender doesn't know about it....but it's not ok for us to do it here. whatever.

sounds to mee like the only bad choice they made was in footwear. The rest could easily be chalked up to "shit happens" or "it was harder then we thought it was gunna be" been there done that. sounds like they made the right chioce by biviing when it got dark and rappeling where they felt necessary to maintain some level of safety, give em a break. moderators suck, I agree with you there.

whatever...I called chelle out like it is in response to her attacking me first....and then i get dogpilled by there rest of her crew. that is what this is about

really it's the "you should take a complete time out" statement that infuriates me. what are you my freakin mother!?

Why? ok, throw out the whole moderator aspect of it. who the fuck comes off having the nerve to suggest to another person that they should stop doing something because they have a bad attitude on a web site? A complete stranger non the less. Maybe if this person was my friend, and knew who I was outside this false cyber reality...maybe then would I consider their advice friendly. Bottom line is, this person doesn't like something I post and indirectly asks me to take a freakin hike. Paint it however you want but that is the underlying message. Now bring in the fact that this person is a moderator here, who supposedly should be held accountable to a higher standard then the rest of us. I think it just illustrates the general attitude that moderators have here, that they have the power to dictate how people live their lives and interact. Fuck that, that's not your job. You don't like something I post to one of your fellow moderators then delete it, or ban me. Don't come to me telling me you think I have problems and should stop climbing, you have no idea. Probly aren't even aware that I haven't been climbing since April....which is maybe why I'm bitter. But do they ask me about why I am bitter, no they make assumtions. This is no friendly gesture.

funny, I was allways under the impression that PM's were in NO WAY private, as stated in the cc.com offical policy...I'd have to go look it up. Moderators have the ability to go through our inboxes, read our PM's and openly discuss them in their own private forum. You send me a string of backhanded emails, don't expect i will be obliged to protect your privacy. Anyway, I think I kept it private enough by not indicating who said this too me, which I won't. My point is to show others what some of the cc.com moderators are actually like behind closed doors....condescending power trip assholes. This private message in my eyes reached new levels of insulting. That goes far beyond me poking back at chelle with some stupid slang and silly icons. I guess I just don't understand the "mission statement" of a group of people who moderate a climbing web site, supposedly for the benefit of the site and it's members, yet send out private emails to the members saying they should just quit climbing....call me crazy.

tell ya what...you send me an insulting private message and you better believe I'll do whatever the fuck I want with it. suck it

those huge rings should be painted bright pink...I almost couldn't find the anchor last time I did that climb!

thanks for the offer... our boat - "Brio" and pooch Mia. unfortunately she needs to come out of the water in just a few weeks

Sent to me today by one of our asteemed moderators, who apparently vancies themself as a psychological consultant. Ya know....I think your right. Who want's all my climbing gear? I'll pay you to take it away from me... Go take a time out... Sincerely, Lambone (soon to be the topic of discussion in the secret forum.)

it is actually ALOT longer then three months a year...more like 6. Mid October through Mid March at least.

I just think that bolts that match the rock are nice...that's all. Not trying to start an argument here. I don't agree with using shiny bolts just so climbers can see them easier. same goes for fixed slings I think it's too bad the colored ones don't get used more often.

what about climbers that don't appreciate the visual impact of bright shiny bolts? possibility? I have read somewhere that they exist.

hard to spot...? gimme a freaking break...why not just paint them hot pink then...jeeze.

since when did the Spray forum turn into a place for PC Softies to hangout and whine, and pat each other on the back? your all abunch of wankers...cc.com has gone to shit
