Chris says hi.

Hello Chris, I have been puntered. For every downvote I get I'll chip a hold on Hubble

Jokes aside I was serious in the last post and there is somebody who has bouldered many 8B's and is expected to do an 8C soon and is just keeping quiet about it.

So was the aim of your post just to brag about some inside knowledge of a repeat that is yet to happen and is not allowed to be talked about?
 :spam:
Best to just save it for a time when there is some actual information to discuss.

Not bragging, I have nothing to gain on here. Its was just exciting to hear and worth sharing, maybe should have waited though!

Fair enough. Even if you'd given away details though, it'd still be pretty off topic for this thread - topic splits usually happen pretty quick, posts like yours look like they could be split immediately for being off topic ;D

Hopefully your anonymous acquaintance gets the job done soon so we can hear about the actual news!

And? 8C is hardly cutting edge….

The spray tan has gone to your head.

8C is surely ‘significant’ if not cutting edge.

Unless there's other circumstances that make it significant? Maybe they're particularly old/young, maybe they have only one leg...... who knows

If ever there was an advert advocating in favour of censoring / purging of threads... this might be the prime example. Well done.

A certain wad has built up a very impressive ticklist. They will come out with it once they climb 8C so I shouldnt say anything else. Why'd ya spill yer beans?

This is almost exactly how the Rich Simpson saga started. Weird behaviour tends to get a weird reception, so maybe suggest to your mate he builds up some concrete evidence along the way or the big reveal might not get the adulation he expects.

I dont think he gives a shit

And also there was no need to split the topic, should have been left.

If he doesn't give a shit why would he ever 'come out with it once they climb 8c'?

There was no need to post cliquey bollocks in the first place! Nobody cares if your mate is strong, but once you've started a conversation people will likely engage, which drags it off topic given you had no details and the significant repeat hasn't actually happened yet...

I wouldn't have given a shit anyway but now I definitely don't.

This.

Indeed. This is one of the worst and most pointless threads I've come across in a while and I frequent Reddit - so that's saying something!

I think you are all being a little harsh on CapitalistPunter. I think he's just psyched for his friend. Yes, the post is little pointless and frustrating, but just ignore it. No need for everyone to jump in. UKB already has a reputation for grumpy posters, and so getting stuck into relatively new posters is hardly helping.

Good topic split. The nudge-nudge wink-wink l'm-in-the-know non-news hint-wanking nonsense can find it's true place along side Bring Out Your Dabs and Tickmark Hall Of Shame  :chair: :2thumbsup:

Fiend are you in the know about anything you can give us a tantalising hint about? Doesn't have to be climbing related

A certain designer maybe who used to be with a big player company might have a sick toy soldier line to drop soon, once he's got the character models wrapped up.... :wank:

Fiend - regarding the 'sick toy soldiers' - will you be getting involved in the painting of said soldiers? ;)
