You're right, I was called out on P2S. Oddly enough I went camping and when I got back, they had banned me. Shockingly, everything they said was unfounded and all the things they called me out on were proven wrong and photographed as such.

I wasn't going to post on this thread again, as I was hoping, in vain, that it had died the slow and painful death that such tosh deserves, but...

I read the thread that got Scythe booted. He posted a thread about being dropped off in the woods, minimal kit, not knowing his exact location, staying for a few nights and walking back to civilisation. Something any adult should be capable of doing. Some of the members on there took umbrage to this, advising that he would die, what he was doing was irresponsible and dangerous, mountain rescue would have to be called, putting people in danger etc etc. Basically saying the same kind of thing as PG - that what he was doing was dangerous for new preppers and he was full of the proverbial.

Obviously Scythe survived. In fact he did extremely well if I remember correctly - even if his hair did look a bit dodgy in the photos

Turns out that people who nay-say are normally the kind of people who don't have the ability / skills to do the same, or are just "arm-chair preppers" as our Northern friend likes to call them.
From my experience people who accuse others of "blowing smoke" are often unable to match the persons level of knowledge / expertise in these fields, and as such feel the only thing they can do is say "I don't believe you, blah blah blah", "you're full of shit, blah blah blah" which not only underlines the fact that the nay-sayer doesn't know what's they're talking about, but also makes them look stupid.

I believe there are quite a few of those comments on this thread

Just my 2 pence worth.
