Please remember that accident posts should be of high quality, per the forum guidelines on main page: "Please keep posts factual and of high quality."

A thread with conflicting reports about a person who fell hardly qualifies as "high quality."

Jakedatc:

Ease up on the personal attacks. You don't like Majid, fine, we all get that. But you need not escalate the disagreement with harsh comments.

Thank you both.

I understand what you are saying that but if you read this similar post

http://www.rockclimbing.com/...apsed;guest=17635106

An RC member in fact was there when the accident happened and because of such posting, other climbers came in shared their experiences and eventually the injured climber himself posted his complete accident report and that is what these posting are all about.

I never said each report has to be clear cut I do not expect them to be perfect and if you think all accident reports must be in such detail then I guess we have to wait for injured climbers to come forward with their own version which I know is not going to happen or just completely shut down the I &A forum and forget about all accidents.

I will say this again and again that each accidents contains some amount of information, may be not as detail as you wanted but, it is enough to encourage others to come forward and talk about them.

May be this particular accident was belayer error, guiding error, management error or gear error or whatever, we still have to treat it as an accident till proven otherwise and if an individual member of RC does not like what they see, they can either move on to another forum or they could go and bang their head to a rock till they become unconscious.
