I thought his rants were funny. Would love to have him back!

I think much of Rox's posts were meant as enertainment and ritual humor...especially the anti-Kali rants.

In reality he wouldn't persecute any California wayfarer in Idaho. He's kindhearted and humane but hides it behind a curtain of belligerence.

...kinda like the Wizard

Yes, Chris wants to do something about the name calling and inflammatory posting but dozens of us are guilty of that behavior.``

Seems to me that when Pate left Rokjox calmed down quite a bit, at least in
the name calling department. My only beef about him is that he needs an editor.

Why don't we "bring back" those who contributed, but gradually lost interest and quietly slipped away - because of the behaviour of people like RokJox?

Who else has noticed this has basically become a climbing website with some off topic threads since the great purge?

I know isn't it great!!!

hk,
if they left due to a few rants or they were incapable of scrolling though posts they didnt like, then we dont need them back as they are probably whiners and pussies.

As Chris made clear in his video, no single poster should affect the flavor of the forum so disproportionately.

Simple as that, really.

Lance Lance Lance Lance Lance,

This has to be good for him, as he was consumed by ST for years,

When I first joined he was hot for Jody and countless others since then.

Total Schitzo.

He must be enjoying life much more now, that he's knott the big guy with the big mouth behind the keyboard.

I for one miss his contributions even if he was a little over the top with the Kalis.

He is typical of the mountain people I grew up around when Colorado was still a kind of frontier state instead of a yuppie one.

In keeping with his spirit, here's a story about wolves that I recently came across as part of a narrative of traveling by covered wagon from Kentucky to Missouri. I hope he's lurking and reads this.


"Through Kentucky ........... we usually stopped near a stream where we could water our stock and get water for cooking, and where we could get wood for fires. As soon as we stopped and the oxen were unyoked and the harnesses taken off the horses, they were all allowed to graze until dark, when they were fastened up to prevent their running off and to protect them from the wolves.

As soon as we stopped all hands became busy. There were three tents to put up, and a fire to build, water to bring and cooking to be done. The tents were pitched in a row with the front to the leeward and the fire was made in front of the middle tent and was made of sticks as large as the men could carry, and was kept up all night by additions of fuel, whenever it began to burn low. This was done to keep off the wolves that were around in such numbers as to otherwise endanger the camp.

As soon as we began to cook meat the wolves began to howl in the distance, and almost immediately the camp would be surrounded by them and pandemonium cannot equal the noise they made night after night. They would venture up so close that we could see their eyes shining through the darkness.

At first the stock was very much frightened by this and the horses would paw and snort, and quit their food and try to break away, but as the same thing occurred night after night, and the wolves did not come quite into camp, the horses needed to learn that was the safest place for them and they quit trying to break loose.

what a decent person is really like. The guy really 'aint all that bad, if'n he would just STFU half of the time, besides how are we ever going to hear about how much you suck and he doesn't. That and we'll never know how he built his own submarine and drove it to the top of Mt. Fuji.

I'll tell you what sucks, all your politard threads :)

bwahahahahahahah
