Damn...at least I never blow the titles. Out the door to clip some bolts.

Don't feel badly, donini. Malemute needs a comma before the word "too," and a period at the end of his sentence.

My work here is done.

To be truthful, Supertopo has always been this perilous and all the other things everyone is saying it has become.

If you think it is worsening, it isn't, perhaps just more populated. if you really want to see how bad groups like this can get, just look back at rec. climbing from the 1990's and early 2000's.

And this is actually human nature, sorry to say. When you don't see one another, you might do unspeakable things to that person with only the slightest urging. The Milgram experiments and similar research have shown us this over and over.

What could possibly be more important than adding a bolt to Double Cross
and proclaiming the righteousness of it, right, Locker?

best comments

some one from across the globe wishes he had found a classy place full of CLIMBERS?? Who are in large part DIRTBAGS??

The whole point is...climbers are talking.

That we all climb makes us family. Awful as that is at times, it is to many of us the most wonderful part. Don't under estimate belonging.

Supertopo can be anything you want depending upon what you click. You could be viewing nothing but great climbing content.

I think I'd stop visiting the Taco forum (which is only a part of this site, remember?) the day there was no climbing content on the first page. Likewise for the day there was only climbing content on the first page!

Many thanks to Dingus and Locker for there inspirational work.

There hilarious messages have transformed me. I've actually developed a sense of humor, something I've fought against all my life.

Whenever I have to go out I begin to suffer withdrawal symptoms that can only be cured with a small dose of Dingus/Locker. (Remember, use only as directed, an overdose may prove fatal)

Well done gentlemen and remember, keep up the good work.

Individuals make the decision to be classy or not. I ignore a some people who are not worthy of my time. Plus I have concluded that worthless/mean people don't even deserve my anger. Instead I will always pay attention to a few that are extremely awesome. I'll take their influence over my life and leave the rest.

I also know that trying to herd people into acting better, you really will have better luck herding feral cats.

Instead be classy and... Classy people will relate to you, hang out, surround you. Being an ass... Well, if you like being surrounded by asses go ahead. Being one is a sure way to keep a crowd of asses up close and personal.

Hi Anastasia, interesting comments.
If you regard yourself as in anyway classy then stand by for some flak, it's sure to come your way. All I asked was for some common courtesy to be shown to fellow poster's and all manner of insults came my way. I agree with everything you said, but you might have stepped over the line by attempting to introduce some positive, intelligent thoughts. I already see the mindless elements emerging from the shadows.....

How many people out there think this thread should continue?

Let me know how you feel about, what's it to be?

As the initiator of this thread I will ultimately have the final say.

Speaking from a strictly personnel point of view I don't think there's much to be gained by continuing. But I will happily bower to the will of the people, whatever that may be.
