sobo Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 OK, this smells like spam to me. Is anyone else getting this shite in their inbox? I'm new to here, let me tell u a little bit about myself first: I started hiking/backpacking since April this year and did a lot of trips in my leisure time, and have been a hiking/backpacking leader for a Chinese online message board(in vanouver) since then, I learn and applied backcoutry knowedge and awareness at the same time.I do enjoy it and started to notice how beautiful the surranding area of vancouver is. here are some this month trip reports and pics I posted on a online outdoor message board. http://www.clubtread.com/sforum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13504 http://www.clubtread.com/sforum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13501 http://www.clubtread.com/sforum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13500 http://www.clubtread.com/sforum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13122 I'd like to know climbing and make friend with u:) mazeGirl "I'd like to know climbing and make friend with u..." riiiiight! Where's HarryPi these days...? Quote
Ireneo_Funes Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 Too bad Mike's chosen the celibate life. This sounds like an excellent dating opportunity for him. Quote
seawallrunner Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I've never met MazeGirl, but I know her from clubtread and one or two other outdoors photo groups. She gets out there, and she takes nice photos. I think her climbing ambition exceeds what ClubTread has to offer, so she is trying in her own way to approach more advanced message groups. Quote
sobo Posted October 19, 2005 Author Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) SWR, So she's legit? She really does get some nice shots. Edited October 19, 2005 by sobo Quote
catbirdseat Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 No posts and no personal info for mazeGirl. Quote
seawallrunner Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 Yep, a real person. I've corresponded with her about some of her photos, and she's organizing a ClubTread dinner this Friday if you wanna come up to Vancouver and meet her Quote
sobo Posted October 19, 2005 Author Posted October 19, 2005 Why, thank you kindly, Ma'am, but Ah must respectfully decline your generous invitation. <southern drawl> I'm looking to head southeast for some granite love in the Clearwater Mountains of I-dee-ho come Friday evening. Quote
Ricardo_Montalban Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 i got it too... and i thought i was special! Quote
sobo Posted October 19, 2005 Author Posted October 19, 2005 Get over yourself. She's only interested in your rich, Corinthian leather... Quote
sobo Posted October 19, 2005 Author Posted October 19, 2005 or your plane... edit: WTF are you doing in S. Korea? Quote
ivan Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 hmmmm...so does this mean i was out of line when i responded w/ nothing except a thousand Quote
seawallrunner Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 totally A beautiful woman sends you a friendly email and you automatically assume she's an evil Spawn of Spam. No wonder you guys can't get dates Quote
Off_White Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 You're such a skeptic Sobo! Looks to me like she might have mistaken you for someone of Chinese extraction, and hence a possibly friendly face and easy first contact here. Doesn't look to me like she has anything to sell. She's likely not real familiar with your posts though, aren't you a middle aged married guy with Sobo being short for Soboleski or some such? Anyway, judging from her linked TR's, I'd guess mazegirl might be legit, so there's no reason to be anything but polite at this point. On the other hand, it's also possible that Chaps got bored and crafted a troll just for you using some poor bystander's postings on another public board to prop up a new avatar's pseudo legitimacy. If you have any questions, PM mazegirl on that other board. Quote
Orange_Julius Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 I too, received a similar email with what appeared to be a pretty good deal. Apparently some hot young virgins want exclusive access to the contents of my pants, free of charge. There were some catches, however. Quote

No wonder you guys can't get dates Hey now waitasecond, SWR. I turned on the charm after you told me she was legit. I was just feeding those other guys shite after my post about not being able to come up to Vancouver for the dinner. I see your winky/geeky/crazy graemlins, so I think you and I are OK on this. Quote

OW, Everything you say above is true, with the exception of the friendly face. My countenance resembles that of a hound's butt. Surely, that would scare her off. On the other hand, it's also possible that Chaps got bored and crafted a troll just for you using some poor bystander's postings on another public board to prop up a new avatar's pseudo legitimacy. If you have any questions, PM mazegirl on that other board. Chaps is an idiot, and much too stupid to ever come up with something that inventive and devious. Quote
Ricardo_Montalban Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 my current mission is to convince Kim Jong-Il to sing "i'm so ronery" live at the superbowl halftime show. wish me luck! seriously, engineer contract with the AF. the funny thing is that i was never really interested in rock until i left portland and came here. without the year round snow i had to find something to keep me entertained.

archenemy Posted October 20, 2005 Posted October 20, 2005 So, did maizegrrl PM any chicks, or does she just want to "befriend" guys? And if she is PMimg folks to evolve in her message group postings (as SWR suggests), why doesn't she just do what other chicks do when they find cc.com; post their measurements and say they want to "learn to climb", "meet new people", whatever. Those initial posts are always a kick in the pants and there have been a dearth of them lately. Just interested in keeping up the quality of this site and all... Quote
