So common sense is. If i put bolts in a peice of rock i take on ownership of this route until i'm done. It would just appear immensly selfish to me. People having three year projects is a running joke. Especially when it is an obvious line. Too often I hear about rockclimbing being not a personal persute and not about ego. I think it is just hypocritical. I've said this but if you wish to say it is about your ego that you keep bolting routes then i will understand. I would disagree with the reason but would also acknowledge that it is productive in having more people putting up routes and understand that it is in the climbing community's interest i respect this.
