As i put in my earlier post's, he has not broke the law, and basically all he has done with us is pull the wool over our eyes, but a basic search led us to here.
I don't condone violence to him, what he is showing is I suppose all of us have done at some point in bull shitting a story or whatever, however in this case, he can potentially put someone at risk.
so it seems, we should pass info on to other groups that we come accross to be aware of situations like this.
One thing that springs to mind to me, is that any group inviting people along to join a social group whether it be us as a social walking group or you guys caving, is to insist that any person posting that they wanna join or participate in a event, is that they bring along some form of identification as to who they are, live etc so that checks can be made............. example this guy could give any false info, luckily he was not that bright to do this, hence such as me posting here.
To be fair to the guy, nice fella, but a big bullshitta which we can all laugh at, but in a enviorement that can cause serious injury to un suspecting people, bottom line don't take anyone at face value! check em out, and think before doing anything you not completely comfortable with.
ps you have a great forum here.... well done!
