ELC..-yup.

I agree. Politicians suck... But suck what? Sorry I guess that should have been a new topic. Suck the money outta yer wallet? Or other kinds?
Please advise.
Ok. Return to regularly scheduled posting.
I do not think that you can keep the "forum more climbing related". You can segregate if you want. I guess Karl Baba has a good point about that. I have looked occasionally when I was planning at the beta threads. Look there. Do you need to be God to start a topic? Forget edit button. I do not see a start new topic button there!!!
And for a moment I was really worried that I would have to shoot myself since I totally agreed with Healy. But he saved my life with Oh, and the single most time-wasting activity on ST is scrolling to the bottom of every forum page served up. I'd much prefer to see the sort reversed to deliver them up most recent first. .
It would save time to see the one most recent post appear at the top. But it would suck the big one having to read the post from the bottom up!
Thanks joe, just pulled out the clip!

" How much time should I be spending on foreplay? "
As little as necessary.

I am New to the forum, however I have no problem with the non climbing related topics. Having been involved with other forums related to sailing (my other passion) Chris it really comes down to either leaving things the way they are or splitting the forum up into two topics.
I joined the forum for the climbng aspect of it, but in an open forum of this nature there are bound to be non related issues. The way I see it is you can either respond or not. Chris I can understand your furstration having been in your situation but, if you divide the forum then pretty soon people will want to add more categories and it becomes a giant beast.
I can understand Chris Macs aspect in all this it his website and his business. However I have learned alot from this forum from WB, JB and mention Chris Mac. I do not respond offten, but if there is something of interest then I chime in.
Climbing is about freedom

Chris - You are right! Put the right buttons on and you could easily mix or not mix the fora as desired. Tell Randy to do it. Too F'n easy.
After all, he fixed the edit button problem. That is way harder than what you just suggested.
And people that want their one pot meal can be happy. And the prisses can go a la carte.
But you must tell us what the answer is on French Freeing!

I agree with the Karl. This is the best climbing site on the web. I think part of the reason of the thread drift is because of the poor weather in Yosemite, Jtree, and Red Rocks. Once the weather improves, most people will be climbing, and consequently more climbing related topics will crop up.

I agree with 10b4me in that at the moment there is just not alot of real climbing going on right now. Even J - Tree has snow. Come end of March, April May, June I suspect that we will see more climbing issues on the forum

How many wrong turns does one have to make in life to end up as a sorry ass rockclimbing.com moderator. Its like being the kid in grade school that monitors the hallway. So sad!

I was a serious climber (haha yeah) for 16 years, skateboarding since i was 6, surfing, sking ( i hate snow boarding ) I do 4 skateboarding forums, 1 buddhist, & 1 whatever. ST is the king site. There is nothing like ST any where on the net. When we sat around our climbing camps we never just talked about climbing. It was all B*llsh*t. Or not. I allways return to ST, 1 - because i know people here, 2 - i meet new people here, 3 - i dislike people here. you never know what will be posted & you never know who will show up. Dont change a thing. i use this site as a standard when compaired to others. this site floes so fast compaired to others, its sic. And the cool thing is, it will allways start with climbing and end with climbing no matter what is in between. it is now raining in the PNW and i will go to bed.

Sometimes it seems like the forum gets overwhelmed with off topic stuff. But it's easy enough to scan down the "Author" column, and just skip over every topic authored by JuanDeFuca.
Other forums make use of the "ignore" feature, where you can choose to ignore posts by certain people. If Supertopo had that, everyone could choose to ignore Juan, and that would probably solve the problem.
