^^^ not exactly sure what that was intended to mean Jim nor how it is relevant.
Do you think I had something to do with this?
And contrary to your opinion I am exactly the kind of person you want in a survival situation.

It's rather interesting to watch Supertopo implode. Think of all the people who have willingly left over the last couple years, plus those being booted at a frenetic pace.
I give it a year until this place is "Supertopo Gear Review".
Oh Sh1t, now I'm going to get the axe.

Yes Thocking he did.
It was rude, crude and very inappropriate.
That post was pulled instantly as it came immediately after RJ's excellent post.

This is bullf*#kingshit!
Ron was an as#@&%e. He provided 95% vile excrement, and 5% valuable climbing history. His exit was a long time coming but I still hate to see it.
But tossing chim chim is crazy. Dan provided 99% climbing content and was always super helpful to anyone looking to climb in woodfords (which has some excellent granite BTW).
If you can't take someone disagreeing with you, even vehemently, then perhaps you should be taking yourself off the taco.
I'm glad footloose started the woodfords thread cause i'd hate to see that go (maybe it's time to copy it just to be sure)

I'm sorry you missed what actually happened.
He took a nasty steaming coiler on RJ then cried I'm out of here.
Sorry he chose that route but direct your displeasure at him.

People have been talking about the end days of the forum ever since I got here, around 2007. There's always those who are up for a chat about climbing.
I can't think of anyone who was booted for a climbing thread.

Yeah, I'm objecting to the loss of climbing content. Met Dan once, climbed with him at Woodfords. Seemed like a nice guy, and he's put in a ton of development up there. To lose the content he posted up around here for the benefit of all over a reactionary post is a real bummer. I'm guessing his routes aren't going to be appearing in a ST guidebook any time soon.

Poor chim chim.
Ron has as many posts as Dean and Graham, and chim only has 40.
Maybe has something to do with the negative attention, or lack of, that he gathered toward himself.
This forum is dead, or haven't you heard?

I know that no real climbers post here any more, but we can still talk about gardening, right? Or is that on the blacklist as well, along with religion, politics and tunnels under Walmart?

I've been lurking and watching this forum slowly deteriorate since its inception... I rarely post since much of it is pure BS and slander and flames. Dan actually posted about climbing, which is what drew me to this site in the first place. Enough said.

I think I just figured it out... follow the money trail!
Supertopo empire expanding to Woodfords, but gotta get rid of those competitors giving it away for free....
Yeah, that's it ;)
But just in case, save your woodfords pdf before it silently disappears ;)

Free speech? I wonder how chimz would feel if I went into his place of work and started saying the kinds of things he said to this forums admin. I've been here since 2006 (9 years folks) and have always been able to say what I want and feel, how the $@&% do people manage to get booted?? So do you talk that way to people in real life as well? How does that work out for ya?

I never saw it either. his point was the bannings are getting ridiculous (which they are). i'm guessing he dropped a few F-bombs and what not. and i hope everyone knows that woodfords pdf is courtesy of Ron.

Mr. chim chim, made some kind of contribution to the U-Boats thread
http://www.supertopo.com/climbers-forum/2448603/U-boats
It's a bummer because now I can't figure out just what it was. Similarly some of the U-Boat photos have disappeared.
I think he disapproved of talking about U-boats on the ST.
If you cannot see the relationship between the ST Forum and U-Boats then I'm sorry, this thread will be beyond your comprehension. Please try "The Flames" for an introduction.

Once this forum bans all the obstreperous wing nuts it will be a lot less interesting, but if somebody makes vicious ad hominem attacks give 'em the hook.
We can have an interesting exchange of ideas without devolving into personal attacks, but perhaps a whisper from Cmac or Rj could work as well as a ban without the drama.

Implosion? Well, I always wondered what a black hole felt like.
Survival, they said Vaudeville was dead, and see where it landed?
And they said God was dead, and see where He came down?
It's the blind leading the deaf and blind on the Titanic.
It's A Night at the Opera all over again.
It's not over till you've seen the elephant sing, the donkey bray, and the right man gets elected.
I thought Carlin said it well, when he said in seven words: "you know what he said"
Pretty lame "fuk" back there, too.
Learn to count to ten, by golly. I can only do nine, and look where I've landed.
Cheers, all you CS's!
Chim will be missed. But it will scab over.
