I'd say a big part of the problem is you're asking bouldering questions. Personally, I don't boulder much and rarely keep tabs on that forum. We have some quality bouldering members on this site, but sometimes they aren't as active. You could always PM someone whose opinion you respect to see what they think. I'm probably going to catch crap for this, but I'd say the bouldering forum is one of the least likely forums on this site where you're likely to get a straight answer to your questions. Well, that and Community.

Don't post in community. If you really really want a topic answered bump it. (to bump just reply to yourself and say bump incase you didn't know) This way it'll have more front page time. Good luck!

I know this feeling! It even happens in the Mods forum... :wink:
1) Narrow your question as much as possible (ex. of question cannot answer : infos on climbing in Europe... to vague!!!).
2) Bump it if you really want an answer. Maybe the single person who could answer has not been online for many days.
3) Ask in the appropriate forum.
4) Try PMs to appropriate persons. They will answer you in few days if they have an answer or not. I usually answer in the first 2 days to say that I read the question, then post in the next 15 days my definitive answer after having for some infos.
5) Offering beer is not a bad idea. I should ask... :D

you know what they say... if you want to ask a good question, you need to know the answer.
or at least have some idea what the answer will be. and a good thread title helps too.

I just want to know where "Palms wide open" is at south morr. its in the route database , but very vague, to vague for me to find it. Any suggestions :?: :cry:
