Agreed- genetics and good luck come into play but lifestyle is the biggest hurdle for most.

I can't condone what Pate does here but I don't think he should be banned.
Riley~ dude, you're coming off like a total leghumper
AND hypocrite, just sayin'.
The crap you sprayed about Medusa was on par with pate's stuff, EXCEPT, wait, it was directed at someone unpopular, NOT a climbing legend like Werner.
hmmmmmm.
Listen, I don't blame anyone for being sick and tired of the leprechaun twerp with a loud mouth and a mean tongue...
but,
judge not before you judge yourself, don't hump legs for leghumping's sake, and try to ignore the chatter.
Let the people argue.

I think Spider and Watusi said it best. Agree there is a lot of Disrespectful and Negative stuff on this forum now and then but I dont think it is Cmacs problem. It is up to us to be responsable for what is posted. It is always interesting to see just how many and who posts on such threads. I think the solution is pure and simple but alot of people dont seem to get it.

Adding in on the above thoughts.
last night I lost my cool and went ballistic. That's not the usual me. I should have taken the higher road and ignored the offending posts. I didn't. Mea culpa.
We have a community here, filled with the cutting edge crews of the past, recent past, present and possibly the future. In addition to the major leaguers, we have a bunch of Triple A players as well as some, like me, who are still in Little League. The common denominator is that we all love the silly pastime that is the reason this site exists.
Let’s keep our eyes on the ball and get away from flinging crap at each other.
Best, y’all.

I'm the inarticluate, less eloquent version of nutjob.
The laymen's nutjob, as it were.
Wait, I don't like how that sounds!
Werner is an outstanding climber with an honorable profession.
But he's really just another dude on the internet not immune to casting stones himself or dealing with the wrath of someone willing to take the disrespect furthur.
Was that better? I only said "dude" once and never said "totally".
Wait, damn!
totally blew it.
try and be nice dudes

Yeah LOL
Anyways ......
I've never been into banning anyone, not even the idiot pate.
I call him out and all he can do is cry like a baby by posting pictures.
Sh'it that's so junior high.
The thing with rocky.
He told pate he's going to kick his ass after repeated asking the POS to respect his privacy.
No ... he can't do it. Freedom of speach!
But it carries a responsibility.
So cry like a baby when the guy threatens to kick your pussy ass.
Then the pussy pate starts crying even more like a baby by posting incessant photo shops in his different incarnations of avatars.
What a pussy.
The guy seriously can't take it but only can dish it out.
He wouldn't dare run his mouth face to face in the way he does here.
Therefore that's why you're a pussy, Pate.

Well that pretty much says it all
Edt. I think that statement could be true for a lot of people around here.

Why not ban only white folks? or maybe just lefties, or maybe only the folks that can curl thier tongues, or maybe...

If only people could exercise restraint and ban themselves occasionally from the taco.

sadistic - deriving pleasure or sexual gratification from inflicting pain, physical or psychological, on another
I think Pate is wanking off to his own posts.

It cracks me up how fast the count goes up on posts like this. What really motivates people to post versus just listen? It isn't climbing trip reports or climbing anything usually. Those threads get responded to very ssslllloooowwwwlllly. Call someone an ass and BOOM, mega-thread.
Rant on....
PS Yes, he is a dick. (Had to get in themud with the rest of ya)
