Suggestion for posts regarding lost gear

Seriously, posts about stuck stoppers, misplaced chalk bags, and other inexpensive lost gear are fricking annoying. Like, right up there with threads about permadraws or what ads are showing up on mountainproject.

So, who supports this informal [s]rule[/s] guideline: if you lost something at the crag that is worth less than $30, just accept the loss and don't post about it. Be psyched if someone posts up that they found it, but otherwise, step away from the keyboard and quit acting like a whiny, cheapass nitpicker.

You're welcome.

I think this one falls into that category. A ball cap?

Yes, that was the ball cap that broke this camel's back. :)

What if they rig it so that every one of those posts goes to Locker's e-mail and mobile phone instead of a forum page?

I lost a sticker off my nalgene. If found please post it up so I can rightfully reclaim this nolstagic piece. It was lost, or more likely stolen, between the crag an parking lot.
Good karma and anything you want out of the vending machine if returned safely and with enough sticky to reapply.
Thanks

Locker doesn't have a mobile phone. He's too old to understand how they work. Something about scary radio waves and government mind control...

He can work email, surprisingly, and he's often very worried about your lost gear.
