Must be a regional thing - although I could continue in suggesting that you're as much to blame as anyone. Regardless, that's not my take on MP at all.
I was going to add it earlier, but didn't want to add any negatives as I think it's great that J_ung is pushing this. But since it applies to your post:
I don't think I'd switch over to here regardless, at least, not while I'm living where I am. I spend a lot of my rock time at Joshua Tree, and the DB over there is fantastic. There is a SHIT-TON (metric) of info on Jtree there. There are several first ascentionists that regularly chime in with beta or comments, and a ton of people that know a helluva lot about the place. Granted, most areas aren't done to that quality, but again, you have the power to change that. If the DB is missing something for an area I frequent I put the damn info in myself, that's how it gets good in the first place. And perhaps you do, in which case this doesn't apply to you. But people often seem to complain about the databases lacking info or missing this or that, yet don't contribute.
