Sorry Off...I just wanted to add this final note: A note from one of the owners of the board: These my my thoughts and aren't necessarily those of Timmy or Jon. It is sad to see someone like Ben vowing to not send people to this board. This place has always been a little bit of "Wild West" and we are obviously more permissive than some other forums in terms of moderation. One thing that is hard to "moderate" is respect. Thats part of what make CC.com a fun place. I'll admit I've participated in poking fun at people, it can be a good laugh. And there are some that really don't give a rip about the site or anyone here. Again, since we are permissive we usually don't ban people for being nilihists. The strength of this board is in its numbers. The number of people sharing information. The number of people who on Monday after a weekend in the hills can tell you exactly what a routes condition is. Then then are those who are just more knowledgeable than you are. If you show them a bit of respect, they'll stick around. They'll also observe when you treat their friends with respect. And without them we are less. So this is a request. I know what this thread reperesented was a loaded question. People had their opinions about leaving gear on a route. But its no reason to be disrepectful. Show some respect. If you want to dabble in disrespect, take it to the spray forums. Keep your insults and tuanting out of the main forums. The majority of people come to CC.com for climbing information, not to see someone drug through the mud for posting a legitimate concern. So if you care about CC.com as a resource for climbing, show a little respect. Show respect for those that might have an opinion different then yours. We have an awesome, living, resource here. But everytime you turn a climber away from CC.com with disrespect, you lessen the site. Thanks, /porter

Howz da wedder tomorrow?

THANKS FOR ADDING TO THE CONVERSATION DRU. YOUR MEANINGFUL CONTENT ADDS TO THE DIALOGUE.

so thats what you guys like to call it.

can i do that while laying on my side watching cheers or hill street blues and munching on a donut?

you're the consummate Eurofag, aren't you Hugh?

go ahead. click on it again. i know it pleases you.

PASS ME A DONUT

I'M HUNGRY!!!

I agree it was lame that someone took his draws. But the lesson should be learned as well that if you leave your gear up on the wall, there are plenty of people that have no problem with bootying it. Bad form or not, just be aware of that next time and don't leave it on the wall unless you can live without it. And don't be surprised when it goes missing if you do.

last night i got up in my sleep and started building something necessary. i got a cardboard box and some other things from the basement. apparently i gave up and went back to bed. i can barely remember what the dream was about, but I know I had to urgently build whatever it was. just fyi

I live at the speed of light, so when someone is bumbling along at the speed of sound its SLLLLOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW..... he left clues every where. it was covered in previous threads here. you simply need to read the internet. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2008349618_webinnertube04m.html

Check the date on this story. This is old as hell and they already caught the dude.

Hey, is anyone from the UW coming to the picnic? Matt is still looking for a projector, and in the past we have had Gary Y borrow a projector from there. Since he has joined the civilian world that is no longer possible. If you can, let matt or I know. Thanks!

I think the worst punishment is knowing that all you old guys saw me naked. I just think you guys are all just perverts.

Yes, by displaying some leadership and responsibility here we can ensure that climbing can continue on "off-nesting" season. And very cool pic! (not the toilet one, the bird defending its nest )

4/20 dude! you can see the future!

my bet is that the primary demographic purchasing such a shirt is not in the military

trazzixhy to be insiteful. can't.

this thread offends my sensibilities. i'm going to medicate with these all stars [video:youtube]wXGgWf2lacM

So you went over to NWHikers in these conditions? WHAT ARE YOU AN IDIOT? I have more internet postings than any sane person would have, and many of my climbing buddies have over 3 thousand posts on Internet forums. I'm speaking from considerable experience and of course am 100% ego free when I tell you that you are risking it all by going over there is these conditions. Think of the children for chrissakes. I have a tote-n-chip card and proudly carry a penknife, except on airplanes when they take it away. I also have a camping AND hiking merit badge, and I'm not afraid to post on any internet forum as such. Next time get some training for experienced slab boulderers before putting yourself and others in danger this way. Thanks, The Humblest Living Entity in the World, Jake Porter

did you see me at the game opening day peter? i think i saw you. but you gave me a cold look and i had to sprint off to find ulee before he got lost in the crowd.
