Has no one else noticed anything funny about jut's "Boar's Nest Boulders" pictures. One is a pick, obviously, of Tristar at LRC. Another, Celestial Mechanics, LRC. And another is the PA Traverse, also at LRC. Did LRC get cloned or has jut been walking past the entrance of LRC and somehow seen "Boar's Nest Boulders"???

In reply to: i just wish he would at least put them in the right AREA you think he would know if he took the pics at little rock city...another thing that is weird is his b&w pic of tristar..this is the same pic on the SEC little rock city page and it has been there for sometime, just somethings i cant figure out and/or he doesnt explain that's what I said he has several that are definately from hp40 but he says general lee boulders. I saw slabolicious, mortal combat, and millipede which are all at hp40. I can't believe nobody else notices this.

I saw Mortal Combat and Millipede from HP 40, but didn't notice the other. I don't care about his descriptions (they don't take anything away from the pictures), but I would like to know what area they are from. There is no reason to confuse people. Other then that the pictures are great.

the pictures are good and I also could care less about the descriptions but if he took the pics then shouldn't he know where he took them at?

It is very important that pictures taken at specific locations be linked to those locations. If the locations aren`t correct then please provide evidence of same and I shall change the linked locations. Of course local knowledge is definitely needed for confirmation of locations. If a location is incorrect then that definitely needs fixing. A person who consults the routes data base needs assurance that the pictures that are linked to the rdb are indeed of the areas that he is researching. Fundamental really. PM me with any fixes that you see. I shall also advise the poster of the pics.

Funny thing I've sometimes noticed is that the names climbers give to certain areas are not even the correct name. For example, Little Rock City is known to climbers as Sandrock. in reality Sandrock is a small town a few miles away!

i;ve never heard it called that but whatever, i think they should be linked to their respective areas because these areas deserve "their credit" (haha) also i know LRC has resolved access issues but im not sure about hp40, i dont tihnk posting pics and "spraying" about these wonderful areas with get them closed...

In reply to: To all who have issues with my descriptions, the area I put my photos in or my pictures: I have reasons why I do what I do with my photos, some of the reasons are because I am lazy, some of the reasons are because I don't care about place names and descriptions and think it's dumb I am required to put those in, and some are because I don't want the local bouldering areas where I do a lot of my climbing to become the latest closed climbing area because every Tom, Dick and Sally has sprayed about them from this end of the country to the other. Some of these areas, while currently open, have sensitive access issues and it does not behoove us to spray about them on this forum (like some of you do). I like to share my photos with others. I don't like to share names of people, names of problems, grades of problems, or names of areas. If you can live by these rules, great - enjoy the photos. If you can't live by these rules, that's fine, too - don't look at my photos. Some of you need to get a life... There are far more important and better spent activities to focus your energy on than this - like climbing. Philbox: Please don't move my photo links. If you move my photos to another destination/location, I will remove my photos. I DO NOT want my photos linked on the database. PM me if this is a problem. Jut your photos are not so exceptional as to justify falsifying the info and/or being lifted above the rules. While I do enjoy your shots, they need to be corrected.

Look bro, let this go. There are many others who feel the same way as Jut about this. It's great that his pictures have all made the front page where thousands of people will see them. What is not great is that this may attract hundreds of people to some of these areas. He put the wrong info on the pictures you are referring to because access has NOT been resolved. You've got the sheets over your head if you think so. Please just let this go, and STOP saying the name of one of our most endangered chatty crags over and over in this thread. Spray is ALWAYS a BAD thing. Let this GO! Please... Phil, Please don't relink these pictures. Pm me if you want some further information. Travis

This is not California. This is a golf course in the South. The people traffic that these pictures are capable of generating could EASILY get this area closed. Please let this GO. Travis

In reply to: I've discovered that I can edit out the location - which I have done. End of story/problem. Linking to the database is a requirement. Photos placed on hold until this issue can be discussed amongst the site admins and photo eds.

This is too funny! Maybe the site should have a section for "Unlabeled" pictures. What is the reason for requiring pictures to be linked to the database? L.J.

In reply to: A person who consults the routes data base needs assurance that the pictures that are linked to the rdb are indeed of the areas that he is researching. Fundamental really. I totally agree. Misinformation is worse than no information at all.
In reply to: I have reasons why I do what I do with my photos, some of the reasons are because I am lazy, some of the reasons are because I don't care about place names and descriptions and think it's dumb I am required to put those in, ... Well then it is a good thing that what you think doesn't make site policy. In my opinion, your laziness or disregard for route details shouldn't be rubbing off on the quality of the information on this site.
In reply to: ...and some are because I don't want the local bouldering areas where I do a lot of my climbing to become the latest closed climbing area because every Tom, Dick and Sally has sprayed about them from this end of the country to the other. Some of these areas, while currently open, have sensitive access issues and it does not behoove us to spray about them on this forum (like some of you do). I like to share my photos with others. I don't like to share names of people, names of problems, grades of problems, or names of areas. Then perhaps you shouldn't be luring people to your precious boulders with your pristine pictures. If you don't like the rules... create your own damn website and post your pics somewhere else. The are 100s of other pics just as good or better on this website, that do have rich descriptions and details.
In reply to: Some of you need to get a life... There are far more important and better spent activities to focus your energy on than this - like climbing. Some people care about the content of this site, hence this thread.
In reply to: The people traffic that these pictures are capable of generating could EASILY get this area closed. Please let this GO. If these boulders are so damn sacred, then perhaps people shouldn't be posting pictures of them all over a rock-climbing website!
In reply to: In reply to: Fiend: Policy/shmolicy. Free country - don't like, don't look. You have no vested interest in the areas I climb in - so shut it. ...First of all, it's not a free country but that's another thread. It's not a free site either, all I suggested was that if you don't want to adhere to rc.com's rules then suck it up and don't post pictures. If you didn't want to draw attention to yourself so badly then maybe you'd realize that it'd be best not to publish the photos at all if you're so worried about access. And to claim that I have no vested interest in the areas you climb in is completely ignorant. I've climbed in all over the US and Canada and I feel that access--at any crag--is everyone's problem. If you f--- up your local crag by publishing photos of it then it only poses a case for others to use when trying to shut down access in another area. Well said! Dave...
