Kev,
I don't care what people should or shouldn't say, or what types of posts are appropriate, or inappropriate, or how much they climb. I really just don't care. I'm not even going to agree or disagree with any statements like that. Who the hell am I to say such things? I'm just along for the ride.
I'm not going to cry about the meanies who are picking on me or others in spray. I never have let things like that bother me, but that's just me. Spray can be fun, but what keeps me here are the trip reports, the climber's board, and the partners forum.
If somebody is being an idiot in spray (or elsewhere), I'm not going to come to their defense when people start noticing. Kevbone, you know most of the crap you get here has been perpetuated by your inane banter, quests for thousands of posts, etc. So, you shouldn't be too surprised when you've become the villain.
Whatever, who gives a shit? You seem like a nice enough guy, and more importantly, it seems like lately you've been trying to turn over a new leaf. I imagine in "real" life, you probably aren't anything like some of the dumbshit things you've posted in spray. No offense
Some people are still going to shit on you, and you'll just have to take that in stride. It sounds like you really don't want to be a jackass poster anymore; so just shake it off, ignore it and keep working on improving your attitude online. Eventually, only the dickheads will keep giving you shit, and who cares what they think anyway.
