Soloing

Why isn't there a section for free soloing, rope soloing, and top rope soloing? Are these disciplines dark arts and no one wants to talk about it? I had to ask. Go ahead and shred me into pieces.

First rule of free solo club... you don't talk about free solo club. Everybody knows that.

I'm confused as to what it would add? People free solo and rope solo 5.easy- 5.hard... so basically any route besides the SUPER hard can be soloed by someone. Anything added to the site would just turn into a free soloing spray fest.
If you want information about rope solo set up, check the forum.
If you wanna know about the free solo club I can tell you some things, but you should know that I'm risking my safety and the safety of my family merely by typing about free soloing. If you're already in the club and have accidentally breached the agreement you'll be receiving a written warning detailing your infractions. If not the following rules should be helpful.
1. Make sure you got it, or be ready to down climb.
2. Being scared while soloing is bad; you'll surely die if you make a habit of climbing too far above your ability without a rope.
3. Don't tell anybody about it afterward.

You posted something not too long ago about the amount of gear you drop climbing, Are you sure free soloing is for you?

But what is "mmk"? I'm so out of the loop!

There are not individual sections designated for soloing on MP, but there have been tons of posts about toprope soloing. Use the search function.

Mmk comes from south park, right?
