An interesting aspect of this thread, and discussion, is that probably at one time or another, we've all been in the shoes of the "passees" and of the "passers", and in their different roles and reactions.
As several have observed, it's often situation-dependent, but observation, thought and communication help.

Interesting how so many have pulled posts here.
This is an issue that needs to be addressed.

I actually think this has been a pretty good discussion covering both sides of this issue. This is an etiquette issue specific to the climbing community that every one of us has had to deal with at one time or another. It is really situational and the specifics of the climb and the personalities involved leads to various solutions.
My personal rule... No tying people off or shooting them ... unless they piss on your head.

There appears to be a discussion here based on incomplete information about a few jackasses, dominated by someone who claims to climb armed. Yeah, count me in.

Somebody pushes past me and farts on my head and he has broken the winds of war!
Time to bust a cap in his azz.

Isn't the guy heeding nature's various calls right over your head the last person you'd want to tie off?
What is the penalty of euros who smoke at your belay when you let them pass?

It'll cost 'em a smoke, at least.

No- the tie off happens after they pee on you. Gotta keep them immobilized while you take aim with the firearm....or is blood all over the route bad etiquette for the following parties? I'm so confused now.

Blood on a route is, as it always has been, food for thought.

15 minutes is a fair penalty for being dicks.

If you think everyone that asks you a polite question about sharing is really judging you and flaunting their ego of superiority, then maybe you really have a problem with insecurity and worrying about what others think about you or you just know that you suck and assume anyone that talks to you can tell as well, not sure which category you fall under
Well, insecurity has always been an issue for me. You seem like you are very confident. Would you be willing to talk some time? You could give me some ideas on building self-esteem; I could teach you about reading comprehension.

Wow, rokjok, most of the time the type of people that would actually make someone disappear in the wilderness dont go on public internet forums and brag to everyone about it. Thanks for the good laughs and keep on chest pounding, someone out there must be impressed.
Ron, i dont know about taking aim at climbers above that have passed, but i do fully support yours and my right to bear arms and when strolling around in the wilderness it is not a bad idea at all. You never know when you are going to meet someone like rokjok out there.
Dana, i am confident that you dont know your dick from your mouth, quit wanking, you are just making yourself look more stupid than before, i have nothing to learn from you other than how to laugh

"That sounds like a clear case of 'rope rage' to me. Suck it up!"...
So says my wife who heard me mention this over dinner tonight.
Suck it up Route Ragers! You suck!
