The Panther mountain TR is great, and the info on the Nepal quake is important.

News is why I pull up ST. It is my morning news for starters, my paper, sometimes my evening news as well. Sure is a bunch of quality people posting up good content.

Format and page design could use an upgrade.

Anything Vitaly is doing. He's our cutting edge.

There are a number of great climbers who rarely post on the Forum: Libecki, Conrad, Big Wall Pete, Jorgenson, etc.

Many exploits of note are brought to the Forum by us regulars when it hits other media.

Your site has excellent web popularity. Having a NEWS tab where the climbing pro's could have their people post or link their blog posts. Or maybe your developer could just pick up all the various blogs and articles and flow it into the news tab. Like a newspaper. Hmmm, sounds costly.

I dare not venture to guess why you ask.
Seeing that the most active threads have been frozen
or deleted, It follows that a new era of moderation has arrived.

The best of the SuperTopo is in the eye of the punter on line !

Your guides are great the stoke rolls out of my monitor and my hands sweat!

The best of what I like is not as important as the variety of information available on an
Ongoing basis.

The very fact that some spend every day that they visit going to threads that are non-climbing related shows that climbers are well rounded and care for many different
Topics,

The all but stopped, almost dead, now noobish uber Ali's Mnt. reject. Has been occupied
By what passes for climbers who often report not being able to find a route with all the info and pictures.

This shows that The Supertopo forum rules !

Glitches and old wave formatting of the sight only add to the ruff and raw feel that mirrors outdoor climbing
This forum is not for everyone, gym climbers are told at the onset or get schooled when they post but are not wholly disrespected.
As an answer that you can use:
Any and every thing that "Clint Cummins" has posted rises to the Jstan, Jgill, and rgld, standard,
the best.


I miss some old members snark and Russ Walling?
The entire forum is great!

Todd 'Gordo' Gordon Is a living saint!
The Mouse and neebee too!

The problem is the nature of the beast ;
We , Climbers are just all a certain type ,
like charged entities,
like magnets, do not attract
Similarly charged entities
but also like magnets,
they are inseparable when placed in the 'right'
Orientation.

I like the ot threads just to get a glimpse of other people's brains. I like the community and sense of community here. I've bought a couple topos from you in the past but expect I'm no longer your target demographic even if I still think of myself as a climber. Honestly I'm not in the market for a Persian wife either, but happy if they pay you for my page hit :-) Thanks!

That TR on the ascent of a 14,000 ft mountain in Montana was awesome.

worse than failure to recover a cam abandonded on munginella would be dismissal of the genius that resides on the jazz thread. learning of a repeat on "milestone" pegged my news meter
