Ha! Lame. I dont even know why i am bothering replying to you. As long as you can keep making money why should you care what people say to you or about what you're doing right?

Yeah, he went on a deleting spree on another forum after he was called out. Unfortunately i missed the one where he admitted to profiting from advertisers from these fake sites. Oh well, at least everyone has the heads up.
Plus I now have a rc.com account so I can lurk here and attempt to learn something. I think i am prob the only base jumper in the world that doesnt have the first clue about climbing

Mostly ladders, catwalks, and staircases honestly ;)
I only have 11 exit points that were cliffs and only a few needed ropes and those were just short sections. The most "technical" climb i have ever done was a slot canyon in SW Utah next to a river. I wont name the site because I am not sure if jumping there is exactly legal. (Can't remember if it is BLM land or not.) Anyway I was never interested in climbing until I did that canyon and since then my interest has perked. Plus it never hurts to be familiar with the equipment in case a buddy gets hung up somewhere.
