Every gerbil that comes out of someone ass this fuking queer Granite sh!thead eats and regurgitates and then spits out here on this forum to only stir up more nu-nesseary sh!t and flame wars.
That's his whole spiel here always.
He's a total gerbil sh!t eating azzhole who hides completely behind his anonymous avatar.
Eliminate this useless POS .....

still want to know why granite bumped the SS should pay thread before steve posted his ropes were gone and almost immediately once Steve's thread went up he deleted his post and piled on in Steve's thread.
Granite you knew they were gone before steve posted his thread didn't you
I am the only one who saw this ? Why would you bump it then nuke your post as soon as steve posted? You know who took them don't you?
Silver,
I saw your question about this earlier and have been trying to understand what you are talking about. The only thread that I remember bumping was the Watkins Ethics thread, and I did not delete that.
Also, I certainly did NOT post anything or bump anything about Steve before he started this thread.
Can you post a link to the what you call the Steve should pay thread? I'm not finding it.

Survival please bring the popcorn
You got it man!
Oh, and my money is on Steve to put granite to sleep in about a New York second.
Granite, why have you never posted a trip report or any climbing photos?
The Chief is an ex Navy Chief and acts like it. lol
This too I laugh robustly at! But I like The Chief. I understand military guys.

Make sure you're logged in, and click on the RideOn icon. This will take you to the SuperTopo member profile. Then click on "forum posts" and you will see that RideOn is a brand new user ID, created specifically to spread disinformation. This brand new user was quoted by micro-penis boy above as though it was somehow factual. O'Really?
My ledge was up there with Steve all of about three days, before it became apparent that we did knott have time to finish the route before he and Cory had to return to work. So we moved kit over to another route, and climbed that instead.
Now, if you are *really* clever, and know how to do this, you will find that RideOn and Graniteclimber are both posting from the same IP address, meaning they are the same person. Fascinating, eh?
Truly, one wonders what is up Granite climber's tw#t.
I should also mention that I jugged and rapped Steve's ropes for those several days I was up there climbing with him, and while they were indeed very stiff and a bit sunbleached, they were not abraded. And being 11mm stiffy caving ropes, a bit of abrasion means nothing, as the ropes are specifically designed to become a bit abraded and still work. I can tell you that the ropes were completely safe, although very herky-jerky to rappel on.
Another thought is that the person who removed the ropes might have honestly believed they were abandoned? In which case, would they please return the ropes to Steve?
I hadn't looked at RideOn's profile, but now that I am, I see what you mean. It was obviously formed just to post here. It was not me though. I didn't even realize that you were the "Pete" it mentioned. But sense it was you, if you say that its false information I believe you.

All the name calling is immature, yes even the Great Werner. Come on Werner, I've looked up to you since the I first saw Yosemite Climber. You could do better than calling someone with whom you disagree a faggot, don'tcha think??.
Whether you like what Granite is saying or not, it is unrealistic to believe that his opinion doesn't exist amongst many people who followed the WoS saga from the beginning.
On the other hand, my impression has always been that Shipoopi is a stand up guy. I've had this impression for years, and I truly hope he gets his stuff back. I also hope the person responsible for *stealing* his stuff gets busted.

What a new tone to your posts granite big time back peddling coming and ill find that thread.
I was shocked when I saw it as I've spent some time here and never had I seen such bs.
This is really crazy! Do I have it right that you think you saw me bump a Steve Schneider thread right BEFORE Steve posted his stolen ropes thread?

Locker, no one has sh#t on my ropes, and I plan to keep it that way.
When DMT posted his theory that this was a vigilante taking revenge on Steve, my reaction was no way. But thinking about it more, I think it's more possible then I first thought I still think the ropes were probably put in the trash by someone who thought they were abandoned, but anything is possible. The only way to know would be to find the person who took them.

That being said, dropping all the low ropes and leaving something up high is just straight up DICK MOVE!
Agreed on that. Not the move of somebody protesting fixed lines left for a long time (unless it started to rain or circumstances otherwise dictated in the moment.
Leaving a line up there could have been a pointed jab to draw attention, or add hassle, bolstering the vendetta possibility.
Peace

If folks can't fathom that fired up driven young kids do dumb things and usually grow up eventually...well they themselves are probably dumb kids still.

Well, here it is the day after. it looks like the ropes were taken after 11/16 or 11/17, and before 11/25. so, looks unlikely that i will never get these ropes back, and the material cost is not that big a deal, just my dismay at having my equipment taken. i'd just like to know what happened, what is going on here. since i was actively searching for partners for this route on this forum, i think that kind of identifies the ropes as mine, so i don't see why i should be leaving a note on the rock identifying mine. i was as active on this route as i could be, and redirected the rope straight down, off the dawn wall AND the real nose so they would not be in anybody's way. if anybody has a problem with my fixed lines, first of all, i'm sorry about that, but i hope somebody can contact me directly so i have a chance to respond and act on it. ss

Is the train wreck virus infectious? It seems to be. Maybe I better make myself scarce before I catch it.

I'm just giving an honest reaction here..
As an outsider reading this thread, I'm going to have to take Graniteclimber's side. He/she may be a bit hyper about it, but in general I think he/she has a point.
Regardless, the opening post struck me as a failed attempt of being a collected man's account for his issues. It really had more of a pathetic, over-emotional nature to it.
I take this from the talking about clues, prosecution, culprits, profiles, young foreign males, bla bla bla..
WTF? It's a couple of old ropes, that has been left to foul the side of a mountain for months, that now are missing. 500$ claim is a joke.
Some dumb kids probably took them.
That said, I think it's wrong to mess with other people's stuff, no matter of circumstances. Hope you get them back.

That being the value of the ropes is a joke but taking a few days to drive up from oakland to take them down is probably $500 worth of wasted time and gas, not to mention that now he has to waste even more time and gas getting the rope that wasn't taken down
Peace

interesting to see how these incidents play out based on who is involved. if joe smoe came on the taco and posted,
"REWARD OFFERED To anybody that gives information leading to the arrest and prosecution of said culprit, I will pay them a reward of $100.",
there would be sh#t slinging of enormous proportions at the OP by the same people who stand by Steve now.
"If you return my ropes to me, or offer me a satisfactory monetary compensation, AND a personal apology to me, then i promise to forgive you and that will be the end of it. No rangers, no prosecution, no big deal."
holy f*#king ego!

I witness this same BS everywhere, all the time.
David Beckham can get away with wearing a skirt and make-up, he'll still be considered a super manly soccer hero, because he scored so many goals for England in the past.
In fact, when he goes against the norm, it raises him even further for having the guts to do so, it makes him untouchable.
But when a regular Joe puts on a skirt and makeup. He gets spat on and called a faggot by the same people that worship Beckham.
It's a crazy world.
