Do you get the topping out cert. if we do the classes?

I am trying to make it work so that I can be there.

On a side note, I noticed Rich posted this instead of Spidey, politics :roflol::roflol::roflol:

Not sure what you mean by politics ??

Steve and Clark talked to someone at the Utah National Parks Council and were told the ACA can issue the certificates. We don't normally include top rope climbing in our canyoneering curriculum, but will in an optional field day if enough people tell us they want the certificate.

politics :roflol::roflol::roflol:

Always one dumbass in the group that doesn't get it or wants to stir the pot.... so I'll talk slower so Jaxx can keep up....

There is a big difference between a member who has over 200 posts and provides valuable content and a member who at the time had less then 5 posts and was using the site to pimp an outside interest.

Keep this thread on topic or I'll split the spam/public service debate into it's own thread. :cool2:

There was some bitching last time spidey posted an Out 'n Back training opportunity. Something about him spamming. I really don't see the difference between that and this (and would argue that neither are spam), but you know me; I always say out of the political arguements. :wink:

And back on topic; I'm double booked that night. Not sure which event to back out of now...

Probably refers to the inside joke that spideys invite to a totem clinic got deleted by shane as "spam".

Posted at 12:59, two replies and 5 minutes later we have a new thread. Where is the thread about heavy handed moderators jumping the gun? Or should I split this post out and start one 'cause I did just mention it? :roll:

Let's just say I was smart enough to see where this was headed.... :asshat:

[Jaxx]

So.... bottom line.... if you want to promote an outside interest that is related to Bogley that's cool..... just participate in the forums. Consider it free advertising for providing a value to our members.

Yeah and a FREE Canyoneering clinic, offered to members of the BOGLEY canyoneering forum has no value to said members. :roll: My post count at the time I posted it was around 20, maybe now with 30 plus it would stick. I doubt it. The next time I post about a free clinic it's going to be a how to wear a Banana Hammock clinic. At least then when it get's deleted there will be a reason. Shane you should at least pick an arbitrary # of posts that permits you to provide free canyoneering clinics to canyoneers. Then tell us what it is. I'm looking for a little transparency and continuity here.

[Scott Card]

Yo, Steve, you can have some of my post count. I have way to many and I am trying to figure out how to reduce my count so as to show that I have a life. :crazy: BTW, you are up to 40. :2thumbs:

[Don]

The next time I post about a free clinic it's going to be a how to wear a Banana Hammock clinic.

I could use that. Mine tends to bunch up in places that are uncomfortable.

[Iceaxe]

It's actually a complicated formula.....

N = post count
Y = Years Member
W = whiny little bitch factor

Y(N+10)/W > 20

Any questions?

:lol8:

And FWIW - The new software will allow us to undelete a post or thread.... the old software didn't allow that option..... so now if a mod does something that is unpopular we have the option of correcting the situation...

Whatever the mod's do always upsets someone.... I even received a PM bitching about spliting all this whinning out of Rich's professional and informative ACA leadship thread.... I was told I was picking on Rich because I split the whinning and spam talk out....

:roll:

first time post (originally 7 different threads) on a $150 wilderness first aid course (http://www.bogley.com/forum/showthread.php?38460-15-off-Wilderness-First-Aid-Course-in-Salt-Lake-City&p=394960#post394960)
second time posting $150 wilderness first aid course then starts harassing a long time bogley poster who asked if this was spam (http://www.bogley.com/forum/showthread.php?38680-Wilderness-First-Aid-Course-Utah-Avalanche-Center-Fundraiser&p=396776#post396776)
first post for cheap Nikes (http://www.bogley.com/forum/showthread.php?39670-nike3c.com-cheap-sell-nike-jordan-air-max-shox-AF1-D-amp-G-shoes&highlight=nike)

above threads are considered not SPAM but informative

Spidey, 20 posts prior, legendness known in the community (at least the regular forum posting community), cost of ACA work shop he was teaching FREE = SPAM?

FYI I agree with the split of the debate to a new thread. I'm glad Rich's thread is allowed.

Don't hate me cause I'm better than you, and everyone agreed with me on the free clinic debacle.

:roll:

Bitching sure, now, but at the time you split it 'all this whinning' was the first 5 posts in this thread. Jaxx making a joke, Rich asking what was meant by the joke, you warning people to stay on topic and myself and jman answering Rich's question about what the joke meant. The only bitching in those first 5 posts is done by you. Of course whatever the mods do is going to upset people. Heavy handed arbitrary editing of the conversation to suit one's own (what are you doing?) will upset people. Even more so when the immoderate moderator shows up and just starts calling people whinny little bitches! WTF?

By the way Don, the way to deal with the Banana Hammock bunching is this. They sell a mild spray on adhesive. You can pick it up at any beauty supply even Wal mart. Lift up the back of the Hammock give a quick spray to the butt cheek, and press the material onto the adhesive with your hand. This should give you at least 12-18 hours (depending on activity of course) of bunch free bliss with your banana hammock. I hope that helps.

[Scott Card]

OK boys..... :roll: nighty nite. Good night john boy, good night mary ellen... lights out... john boy did you treat your massive mole?

Fellas, seriously. Canyoneering would be a good topic to return to.

Sheesh, even after all this time, and all the "whiny little bitches" nipping at your big dog heels, it just won't sink in? You still can't bring yourself to say "Gosh, you know, maybe I was a little hasty."

OH MY GOSH! :roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol::roflol:

That caught me off guard. Good one Spidey.

I never thought the joke would turn into it's own thread with a second page! Sorry I brought it up.
