300 way super hero grounded!!!

To all of my friends, be you kool-aid gang or not. I say hello!! Big way rocks!!!!!. Many of you may know me from the last 300 ways as super hero ' Do to my killing of the bear on my way to the river were I killer a gaiter as I swam out to get back Kirks cut away main 'Well let me tell you that anyone that says good dead are rewarded is right !!!!!!Not only did I get a handsome reward from Kirk but I am now into day 13 of a sever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! case of poison ivy. I have it on my upper legs ,belly ,back and left arm. It now takes about 80% of my daily energy just to keep from killing someone. So take my advise and stay away from the forest!! only bad things live in the forest.

My real reason for this post is to find out peoples opinion on following your own main and the mindset behind those that don't. I have had 5 cut always in my 2600 jumps and always followed my own gear . I look at it as there is $1200 of mine floating away. My reserve has the same toggles as my main and the same ground is under me so why leave it to someone else??? I understand there are times were a injury may lead to leaving your stuff but other than that why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets not get hostile over this one lets just have a nice discussion as I know we can

Super Hero 2000

Maybe because your main landed in a river..... a lake.... a forest....on the main street of Anywheretown.?

i have had 2 chops... neither one seemed worth it to follow.... if its gonna land in a good clear area yes i will land next to it. otherwise it would seem silly to have an emergency situation... do the correct procedures and then break your friggin leg following your main.

There is a product called Tecnu that you should find right next to calamine lotion. Tecnu breaks-down the oil on your skin and you should wash your clothes using it too, as the poison ivy oil can hang around for up to a year. Best stuff ever for poison ivy.
