What is better?

There are some good facets to Mountain Project but the questions begs: What is the most valuable resource?

1. The plethora of comments about routes from people who have not actually done them?

2. The insane fights from Arizona?

3. People asking for advice on how to climb and getting it from people who don't yet know how to climb?

4. The gear discussions and YARP.

5. The fights over music, dogs, stick clips, and other such natural experiences.

6. The fights over what real climbing is and ultimatums on wilderness behavior.

8. Making fun of boulders wearing beanies.

9. People justifying their being old, lazy, and weak by using strict ethics.

10. Finding new areas (and the destruction of the guide book)

11. I am sure I missed a few so have at it.

I value lat and long coordinates so I don't have to spend 12 hours hiking around RMNP in a stupor trying to find ice...and then upon finding it, not being able to climb it.

Ohh, and Yarp.

I'd vote for people who can only count to six! Derp.

Football discussions and the girth of someone's Tebowner.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
