The thing is, for every person that bashes the RRGCC there are probably 20 times that amount in support. You may not hear the silent supporters but that doesn't mean they can be lumped in as opposition. Our country is full of opposition in every facet (smoking bans, politics, etc.). Shoot, my company just changed their profit sharing to a 401K and is giving each employee a 6% raise so that the company is essentially paying each employees' contribution so the company can match it. It's a win win situation and people are STILL bitching about it!!!Gretchen wrote:...I really don't feel like reflecting over all the negatives that I read over this website sinces it's birth that have pretty much stoked those fires....
The key is to listen to the criticisms and decide whether they're rational or not. If they're rational then they should be viewed as constructive criticism...not opposition. I see rhunt's view as such.
The nature of this board attracts vocal and opinionated people. You can't see this as the voice of the climbing community but should appreciate the concerns mentioned. Feedback should always be appreciated, whether good or bad.
Good luck getting the peace and harmony stabalized. I appreciate you admitting your bitter attitude towards the climbing community and I hope you can eventually learn to let those negative feelings go.
You keep me laughing piggy... I mean, just because you donate blood to the Red Cross your not going to ask their CEO to step down.
