Yes I can remove him but he is not a spammer and he does not share another ip with others. so he is legit and I thought I knew who he was but I was wrong. I really don't know. But from the way he acts I'm sure he has been here before cause he is too comfortable here.

Oh well.. Is what it is I guess..

I believe EVERY climbing stand manufacturer includes a VERY noticeable warning w their included directions/safety literature about NOT using their stands for this purpose. Trimming limbs might be semi safe w common sense and a quality, reliable fall restraint ( or 2 ) but topping a tree from a climbing stand would be asking for trouble and a possible rescue situation or worse..........

See Post #45. I believe the stand idea to be a huge improvement.(Or maybe a slower death).
