Pretty sure there is no official bolting ban at Devils Lake . Same for pitons. Now puke.

Steve, you are out, no debating the trolls.

Must be climbing related for the "General Climbing" forum!

Smoking at the crag is OK.

 I don’t see the problem with toproping the first pitch of a multipitch route all day Saturday 

Five of my friends and I have the right to toprope this route all day Saturday because I got here earlier than you

Oh, great!  I’m gonna go bolt Son of Great Chimney.  6’ spacing sound good?  I don’t like climbing above my pro. ;)

Jesus Ted. I thought you got this but now you're out, too bad.

If you just joining the party, we're practicing Troll Patrol by not debating the trolls! If you debate you're out!

I love dogs, especially when they guard my gear and area from other climbers.  Everyone should have a crag dog.

Belaying off a Munter hitch is sure fire way to die

There is no reason for gold camalots to exist.  Just keep climbing and place something when it actually gets hard.

That is f'ing hilarious!

Trad climbing is neither:

not Trad because traditionally pitons were used

not climbing because it's really just about fondling gear, not climbing, it you actually wanted to climb you'd sport climb (with prehung draws of course).

Put the bolts back on the Thin Air traverse.

My superior climbing skills make it ok for me to climb on wet sandstone 

Leaving hardware store quicklinks on bolt hangers makes it easier for everyone to bail.

Classic routes are never over loved, the Bastille Crack is such a pristine wilderness experience!

Routes with offensive names should be renamed. If the new name offends anyone, it should again be renamed until no single person is offended.

Buying bolts at the Home Depot will save you a ton of money.

Best unpopular opinion so far.

I knew you couldn't resist, now what do I win? I mean, other than proving your troll skills inferior on your own thread. 

 I’m so sick of seeing new routes on Mountain Project. There’s never anyone climbing there until some dumbass, show off, know it all posts up a description, a topo, the approach, what gear to bring and like a hundred photos. Then there’s a line of gumbies at the base every weekend and two parties on the route. One party’s trying to pass via a variation. That party shouldn’t even be passing in the first place!
