i think it's safe to say that people get all butt hurt because for long timers who were out and about before the internet we had to figure out little things for ourselves. Telling people that the eastbound trains leaving colton are being cracked down on without any context such as- trains slowing to 10 mph for overhead inspection, infrared scanner being used, train stops at siding outside yard and a bull on an atv drives along inspecting buckets with a mirror etc... Just saying I got caught is not grounds to put up a warning on the internet. On that note, why folks who've been riding a long time also get butt hurt is that this is not an inclusive community. Now with the internet though every regular jeff and college student out there who's read kerouac wants to jump on board without even the slightest clue of what this culture is about, or how to figure it out for themselves. In fact i haven't been on this site in over 6 months and this is the first post i see and i gotta say if you remember this site from 7-8 years ago you never saw shit like the topic post here. Over the years so much crap like this has popped up that it's become painfully redundant. So on that note, long time rider's do look out for each other but if you think you're just gonna walk into a community that's been formed for the last hundred years by people proving themselves through acts of ingenuity, self reliance and determination and expect to be welcomed with open arms, you're wrong. If you ever do make it out on the rails and into squats and what not I'm sure you'll find anyone who's got more then a summer under their belt to be fairly tight lipped and apprehensive.
