In reply to ashtond6:
Like/dislike status says very little, especially if it's only a few votes. Could always go either way, depending on who reads/decides to respond. Since you mention it - I've just had a look at my initial response to you: currently 6-6, but could be 3-9 or 9-3. So what? Anyone with an ounce of intelligence realises this.
Re advice police: you're the one that took it upon yourself to offer advice - which was incomplete, and potentially dangerous given that it was aimed at a relative novice. I initially responded (quite mildly, actually) - just pointed out that there were more factors to consider than the ability to place gear. It's an obvious reply; it would probably have been made by somebody else if not me.
Re "whatever": sends a pretty clear message that you don't have any genuine concerns here. If you simply don't give a shit, please don't post any more safety-related advice. Thanks.
