Trolling's not truly successful until you get a PM of encouragement telling you to ignore the insults that your initial post prompted.
Second to that is hooking in a troll:

In reply to: climber49er wrote: I'm sorry to tell you but, you really suck. Can't even grace this with a respectable answer. When you get that whole V4, then you can indeed consider yourself good. V3 sucks. Half a V4 sucks.1

Ahhh....while I don't boulder anymore, I love reading the threads about it cause you guys have some of the most lively discussions on the board. To hell with peace and love, your back and forth arguments on bouldering fine points makes for good reading :lol: :lol: !!
But I gotta agree with whoever said that if you used a rope - even if it wasn't weighted, it wasn't a redpoint. When I first started trad leading I did it headpoint style...had a very loose toprope on and dragged up the second rope as my lead line for clipping into my pieces. While I didn't fall and didn't need the toprope, it wasn't a clean lead for me cause regardless, I had that safety net of a toprope. If you're roped up, you're roped up...whether or not you used it or not.
You're obviously stoked with yourself so why does it matter what everone else thinks. Just be happy with what you did.

You people are confusing me now...
All this talk about pinkpoint, redpoint, weighting rope or not makes me feel very confused! I really just wanted to share my excellent acheivement with you guys and now you are picking at me because I weighted the rope a bit. I guess some people don't understand what it's like to be afraid of heights.
Anyway, just to clarify, "fish in a barrell" was NOT the problem I was on. If you guys don't think it's cool that I finally redpointed my first V2, that's your problem. I'm stoked, I'm thinking about doing some free solos now on the easier problems like V0, V1. Do you think that would be safe or not?

Why would you not use a rope for a boulder problem? If it's too high than you don't want to get hurt right? Isn't that why they are called freeballs (or highballs, I don't remember)? So isn't that the same as a free solo if you decide not to use a rope? Anyway I think I could do some easier ones free solo.

hehehehe. I love this place.
If you wear underwear, it's a pinkpoint. The underwear is gear, see, and it was pre-placed if you had it on when you got on the rock.
But as has been well-established, climbing with pre-placed gear reduces the difficulty. If you were wearing your Funderoos when you sent this V2, you weenied-out (but not literally, mind you), so it was really only V1+.

I must make it clear that I was not wearing pink underwear, thus it could not have been a pinkpoint. My Spiderman Underoos are, of course, red. Thus, a redpoint ascent. I don't see what having them preplaced does any different than my rope. Isn't the underwear irrelevant?
I wish you folks could just share my joy rather than get all bent on minutia.
Grrrrrrrr :twisted:

you know, sometimes when I'm fishing, I wonder whetther it crosses the minds of the fish that haven't been caught yet where all their friends are going, because it must become obvious sooner or later that there just aren't as many fishies swimming around in the school as there were an hour ago and that maybe those shiny things with food on them that all the others were biting just before they disappeared have anything to do with it, but then I think maybe fish don't have the mental capacity to realise what's going on.
other times when reading a troll, I see lots of people getting caught, and I start to think about those silly fish again :lol:
this appears to be just one of those feeding frenzies, and I applaud you mr 49er, you must be a great fisherman indeed :)

The lack of understanding of sattire and sarcasm on this board never fails to amaze me. Holy shit! I'ts really incredible.
I am no genius mind you, but it has got to be frikkin hard for you all to climb when you are denser than the rock itself.
