I never really understood the whole "hate on noobs" thing. It seems to say much more negative about the shit talkers than it does about the noobs.

That's just my opinion. Then again, maybe I'm just a noob.

FWIW all the truly great climbers I know don't slag on noobs.

There is ZERO "Hate" for n00bs coming from me. So don't make it out to be something it isn't...

Was asking a SERIOUS question...




Are the n00bs of today, more TRAINED and INFORMED than we were?

Everyone is a fukng n00b!!!...

Those that think they are in a HIGHER place because they THINK they are "taking up for the n00bs" are full of sh!t...

Here's the original post:

"Are n00bs more informed/educated on climbing techniques these days or is it just plain LUCK that they survive at all?"

Where's the "Hating"?

Don't worry about it Locker, it's all fun and games. Mike is just a hyper-sensitive guy and any talk that is not politically correct gives him a frowny face and makes his feeling hurt.

Do you need a hug mike???? It's ok to be a noob, just like it is ok to make fun of noobs. Can't we all just get along?

I don't even think Mike was addressing Locker. Others like David Sahalie and myself were talking about the n00b hate, but you can go with Locker's close reading if you want.

Unlike you, I've actually met Mike and he's a cool guy. He climbs what he says he does, contributes honest opinions, and doesn't hide out behind the shrubs with made up grades and opinions he learned are cool online.

By all means though, continue your habitually subpar trolling ;).

Mine ISN'T "Trolling" but apprently the majority here can't comprehend THAT...


I honestly WONDER what the GENERAL LEVEL of knowledege is, with the new, upcoming, climbing, crowd...

I can't count how many times I've seen people come out of the GYM having never climbed on REAL rock, and they fucking CRANK...

I know you do what you say, Locker. You aren't hiding out behind the shrubbery, you are fully exposed and OUT there. I'm addressing the certified internet climbing expert: Mr. Q.

Yeah, I'd love to climb 3.1 with ya! Maybe next time I'm in CO.

As far as your OP, I have no idea what the survival rate on n00bs is. I'd guess that n00bs are scared straight by all the gym regs that make belaying seem complicated and the fact they only know how to tie into a pre-made figure 8 knot.

Don't worry Z, you secret is safe with me, I never believed that rumor anyway. I was a bit fearful of the way you stalked me until I found out who you are, now I feel sorry.

No one is attacking you buddy, I wasn't calling you a noob personally so calm down. It's ok to get trolled once in a while. Immediately striking back with another pointless inferior troll post is way beneath you. I used to appreciate you ability to troll, your patience, your eloquence, now I am just wondering if your getting too old.

Ah, Johnny, I'd sincerely hope you don't appreciate me. I'm going to ride your shitty troll ass like a sex donkey :)! You're really bad at this and I'm going to help you quit posting nonsense with a healthy dose of tough love. One day you'll grow up, post your real climbing grades of 5.7 and V0- and not have to hide behind lies anymore. Remember: I love you and it's all for your own good, lil' guy.

We do, Locker, we do. I'm poor Johny's Trolls Anonymous sponsor helping the lil' feller quit his nasty habit. He's having a relapse right now but I'll put a saddle on him soon enough.

Nice try, but too quick on the submit button once again.


You can try all day to get me to react, but I am pretty happy with myself. I am also not the one who is still climbing on the beginner routes after ten years of practice.


I'll never be the best at climbing either, but I also don't carry around an inferiority complex about my climbing ability like you do. Someone can call me a noob and I won't be taking it personally. Try it. It might just make you a happier person and keep you from sticking your dick in donkeys like you are so inclined to do.

No, I did not have to try. You just reacted! And you're really squirming too, trying to reframe the facts again.

I can see you'll be a tough case, Johny, but I won't give up on you. We'll start with just a blanket and work our way up to the saddle. After that we'll get a bit in your filthy maw and get this poor trolling problem of yours under control ;).

Don't worry, I'll be working on your case Mr Q..

"With so many n00bs hitting the rocks...

I'm surprised that more aren't hitting the rocks...

Are n00bs more informed/educated on climbing techniques these days or is it just plain LUCK that they survive at all?"

From what I have seen, they go from the gym to sport climbing. There is no craft to sport climbing, clip bolts anf go. Rarely do you see them going from the gym 5.12's to the yellow spur (Eldo trad 5.9). They'd likely back off or get really hurt.

I am squirming because it is a scary thing to have a strange man threaten you with donkey sex.

Now I feel like I should delete it.

But seriously, I remember the first time I saw donkey sex, some chick took a huge gagger load. She was a spitter... I would recommend not doing that John Q.
