In reply to steveb2006:
I'm against the adding of combination routes (plus weird eliminates and link-ups) because although it's a logbook, for me it's more valuable as a database to browse crags - and it makes them a confusing nuisance.
Four routes at High Tor is nothing - try making sense of the boulders at Dumbarton Rock or Manor Crag, if you haven't been.
It's going to continue happening, because people love logging climbs accurately (and ticking minor variations and contrived eliminates). As a moderator of crags I've generally accepted them, because ultimately people should be able to log whatever they want, however silly, but it would be nice if it was possible to designate variations and eliminates so that one could choose for them not to appear.
Edit: thinking about it though, this probably asks too much of moderators, and has too many grey areas to work. Oh well, we'll just have to put up with the obsessive loggers...
