Folks at the Midwest's mini-motherlode equivalent get along great with the No Project Draws and No Cleaning Draws rules.
I'm purely just stirring the pot to keep this crazy train going.

Take all the permanent draws down and then watch everyone start cleaning through all the new glue ins and wear them out just like they do in frankenjura. There's always gonna be something to bitch about. If someone clips a sharp biner and it cuts their rope it's their fault.
Of course it is their fault. But it still doesn't reduce the loss and the tragedy. Perhaps you might have a slightly less callous attitude if it is your wife or good friend that misses a sharp edge and pays the consequences.

Everyone is getting all worked up over these draws. But shouldn't we be more worried about those exploding bolts? Piggie, have you been installing those as a joke?

Put your own draws up and never use the fixed gear that is there, no one that sport climbs harder than 12a in the red can say they never clip fixed great. Its there as an option, put your own draws on and don't use what's there if you want to keep crying about fixed draws.

Looks got nothing to do with it. Grades center around 13b/c and go up to 14c. No cleaning biners, project draws, or permadraws.

This is more than about me. If they are there, people will clip them. Think bigger than yourself Kenny
