Nothing too interesting- just a log of my first time in the drains for FM purposes. This was actually two separate tunnels, but we did both in one day. It was pretty fun, not as scary as I thought it would be. I actually felt very comfortable down there.

Cool! Thanks for sharing. I haven't done any tunneling yet, but it looks fun!

Excuse me. Maybe you should read the posts for new members, where they urge us to share about our adventures, and that picture quality comes later, with practice. I'm not trying to be an Instagram whore or a famous "urbexer" I'm just out having fun with friends, and posting about it here. Since when does anyone care what my goals are, so long as I don't break site rules? And why shouldn't FM be a worthy goal?

Don't worry about it, he's just chronically grouchy. Are these tunnels in Portland? I've never been in either as far as I can tell.

Is that what that guy satans_percussionist, suadensky95, smokedguadacheese, SecretSanta, Explorerofblackareas guy said when you met him? He talks a lot of shit when he doesn't get his way and keeps creating new accounts to cover himself.

Just my two cents here: The guy we're talking about is... different. He's odd. But he's never given *me, personally* any reason to hate him. I've seen some of the bullshit he's put on his profiles and it angers me, but none of it was directed _at_ me. I simply don't have the attention span to deal with what you all are warning me about. The few times he and I have explored together, we hardly talk anyway. I don't ignore him for the simple reason that he was the first person to reach out to me and help me when I was a newbie, not you. Yes, he does talk shit. Yes, he is a miserable person to be around sometimes. Yes, he can be dramatic, trolling, whiney, and depressive. But these aren't reasons in my opinion, to completely cut contact. He simply hasn't done anything directed at me or the locations we have explored together that would make me cut him off. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But I do see where you are coming from and respect your decisions to do so.

That's neat, is there a lot of spiders in there? The only tunnels near my place that I know of have spiders alllll over it, it's disgusting...

Drains scare me because Pennywise is probably down there. =P

Actually no, they were in there, but mostly in the cracks and crevices or smaller tunnels, not the main one we walked in. I ran into a couple webs, but nothing too bad. I'm so scared of spiders though!

I don't know which one of his so many profiles over so many different places you're talking about. I don't keep track. What she said pretty much mirrors how I feel. He use other people as step stools to get what he wants. He just keep making new screen names whenever his reputation. https://www.uer.ca...rrpage=2&pp#post27 What he said to me is he can clown out as much as he wants because he's from a particular zip code. He insists everyone in his family will drop everything and come defend him if things come down to it. He gets extremely hostile and aggressive when he doesn't have his way. He dissed others he met so much it's disgusting. Many reasons that guy pissed me off like nobody else have before but mostly for being an arrogant disrespectful piece of shit without having any accomplishment that is rightfully his own.

I'm not talking about his profile. The both of us have met him. I have seen his house. I know where he lives. Again, he's never given me any reason to avoid him. I'm wary because of threads like ^that, which I have read many many many times. Thank you for your comment of warning, it is not ignored, but once more I will say that I have never been given any particular reason to think that he would cause me harm, nor do I believe he has ever talked poorly of me.

hahahaha alright I'm not surprised you've been to his house. That's a very close quotation of how he said it I didn't think it'd be right to post his actual zip code so I left it out. I think he was trying to tell me his daddy is kind of rich to justify his sense of entitlement to run his mouth and be an arrogant piece of shit swindler. fuck that guy. But whatever floats your boat

Just from what I have experienced through the forums. I'm siding with Deuterium on this one. That kid came across as a complete ass on pretty much all the threads he or one of his many alter egos posted on. It just seemed like nightmare story after nightmare story. Kids ego seems bigger than one man can bear. Oh well that's just my 2 cents as an Outsider, that doesn't really shit post or troll just kind of does my own thing and comments on cool stuff.

Yes, of course, he's a major asshole, I get it. But he's never done anything to me to change how I treat him. Besides, no one else has thus far offered to go explore with me. I completely see where you all are coming from, and even agree.

If you're ever down in Southern Oregon feel free to hit me up. I explore alone because I don't really have anyone around here and enjoy the solitude But I can totally see where you are coming from and until something does happen I totes don't blame ya.

Posted by Deuterium fuck that guy. But whatever floats your boat

Well, it seems he's done with me either way. Hasn't responded to a text of mine in months. Lol!! I'm assuming he either got arrested, or fell off a tower or something (( Wait, he actually told you that?? Eew. No. I have seen the guy only a couple times lol. Looks like I'm looking for a new PDX buddy. I know you're in the area, but I doubt you'll want to explore with me at this point, with my lack of experience and having known "that guy." So I guess guilt by association XD
