Also, don't spread shit about me saying it's acceptable to steal QDs. I said I didn't know the difference between crag swag and gear left by people working routes. A fair mistake considering I grew up in an area with zero sport.

It wasn't a fair mistake and I am not "spreading shit". I could go on but I'm not getting into this again:

The case is closed.

I remember when i was younger i used to sometimes argue for the sake of it. Can be good fun, winding people up. I tend to look back now and hang my head for being so stupid and pedantic. Luckily i didn't record all my ridiculousness on the internet for future reference.

They say sticks and stones will break your bones but the nine millimetre, it will bore your dome.

We seem to be collecting classic Pot/Kettle quotes recently don't we.

:agree:

The survey's pretty funny... not as funny as Wanko's assertion that the results will mean anything whatsoever. I'm sending him a copy of Oppenheimer's Attitude Measurement!

Sorry I should have qualified my last post for the hard of thinking. I meant Franco's "balls" quote. The ultimate keyboard warrior calling Dylan a keyboard warrior. Nearly as good as jcm's recent "smug and superior" effort.

What a stupid question, yes it is wrong and the same goes for any other gritstone venue!

I wasn't agreeing with dry tooling at millstone. I was trying to get people to justify their position, which they couldn't do, as their position was daft.

You were pretending to agree then, which is exactly what playing the devil's advocate means.

Very well, excuse the not hyperlinking, but it will all be in your UKC profile

If it's not I don't really see a massive problem.

The UKC pictures show millstone to be in condition, so as long as care is taken, fair enough really.

Now do us a favour and piss off.

Whether you said it or not Franco, you are asking people to decide whether they think its right? When it isnt.

People new to climbing who dont understand the ethics, origins, how we got to where we are now and what is essentially good practice need to be guided and given clarification, otherwise fools like Calum turn up and fuck things up, as does the person whos scratched the hell out a quarry up the road from me.

What your doing is confusing matters more by even just opening it up to questioning.

Cee comprende

Stop being a dick.

No... go on... it's fucking hilarious!  :lol:

Any chance of this thread becoming the 3rd tedious slagging match between "UKC and UKB" to be logpiled?

I don't understand how making up quotes is funny.

The thread on UKC has shown the errors of people just believing things for the sake of it. Come up with arguments or shut up.

You really are serious aren't you!? Don't you have a sense of irony??

...ah...

shit! Doh. Suckered by an annoying little troll. Good one!  ;)

Thank you for reminding me how utterly vacuous and pointless your posts can be.

Callum Mcleland and other person who posted in defence of Struan.. Sorry for saying you were trolling - I didnt realise you were a different Callum (I dont read UKC) and understand (& respsect) that you were sticking up for an innocent mate.

I mistook by the tone of your post - (and your tone was probably justifiable given the slating Struan might have got on the other channel) that you were trying to stir things up.

AndyE. A request for more talk from the suburbs da Ghetto please... most amusing  :)

Also, don't spread shit about me saying it's acceptable to steal QDs. I said I didn't know the difference between crag swag and gear left by people working routes. A fair mistake considering I grew up in an area with zero sport.

Franco, if you look here you can review your posts that clearly demonstrate you thought stealing quickdraws is OK.  Your flippant replies saying you thought that theft was fine caused some irritation at the time, quite rightly.

Nope, you said:

I don't really see what's wrong with that.

tc asked you to clarify:

With what? Stealing quick draws or going to the Tor?

and you said:

either really.

Now tell me how the fuck that says anything other than "Franco though it was fine to steal people's gear"?
