Sup all, If you're looking for a competetive ladder check out tagaming where the BF2 ladder is kicking off but we need YOUR help. Thanks for reading, please chekc out the forums too.

Feel free to read our forums, noting that we're not really clan players.

I'm sorry, but i don't know how to chekc

I already have a ladder thanks, I use it to get into the loft. It's not very competitive though as it gets on quite happily with the step-ladder I keep in the shed.

do you think it will get on with the ladder im growing in a pot, hopefully one day it will be big enough to live in the garden (shed)

bah, "thanks for reading".

Should be "sorry for wasting your time, your awesome-ness."

Hello there, fellow of the alternating caps name! I have studied your post about ladders, and I have brought you some information you may like to know:

A ladder is a vertical set of steps. There are two types: rigid ladders that can be leaned against a vertical surface such as a wall, and rope ladders that are hung from the top. The steps of a ladder are called rungs, and the vertical members of a rigid ladder are called stiles. Rigid ladders are usually portable, but some types are permanently fixed to buildings.

Rigid ladders are available in many forms, such as:

fixed ladder (two stiles joined by several rungs; no moving parts)
extension ladder (fixed ladder divided into two or more lengths for more convenient storage; the lengths can be slid together for storage or slid apart to maximise the length of the ladder; a pulley system may be fitted so that the ladder can be easily extended by an operator on the ground)
step ladder (hinged in the middle to form an inverted V, with stays to keep the two halves at a fixed angle)
platform steps (step ladder with small horizontal platform at the top)
telescopic ladder (stiles consist of short lengths of concentric tubing that can be slid inside each other for storage)
roof ladder (rigid ladder with large hook at the top to grip the ridge of a pitched roof)
hook ladder (rigid ladder with a hook at the top to grip a windowsill; used by firefighters)
turntable ladder (extension ladder fitted to rotating platform on top of a fire engine)
Rigid ladders were originally made of wood, but in the 20th century tubular aluminium became more common because of its lighter weight. Ladders with fibreglass stiles are used for working on or near overhead electrical wires, because fibreglass is an electrical insulator.

For safety, a rigid ladder should be leaned at an angle of about fifteen degrees to the vertical. In other words, the distance from the foot of the ladder to the wall should be about one quarter of the height of the top of the ladder. At steeper angles, the ladder is at risk of toppling backwards when the climber leans away from it. At shallower angles, the ladder may lose its grip on the ground. Ladder stabilisers are available that increase the ladder's grip on the ground.

A ladder standoff, or stay, is a device fitted to the top of a ladder to hold it away from the wall. This enables the ladder to clear overhanging obstacles such as the eaves of a roof, and increases the safe working height for a given length of ladder.

Rope ladders are used where storage space is extremely limited, or weight must be kept to a minimum. They may have rigid or flexible rungs. Climbing a rope ladder requires more skill than climbing a rigid ladder, because the ladder tends to swing like a pendulum

stepladders are a bitch. my old boss told me to jump up one and saw off some random bit of metal. couldnt reach, so all 6"8 of him jumped up there and started sawing. that is when i learnt a few things. why the little lock on the ladder is so important, what the sound of your boss falling 8foot onto a wooden floor sounds like and also how to get fired within a week.

Gunslinger: You are Wikipedia AICMFP. Cracking post, though.

Anyone else here have trouble reading through Wikipedia without imagining Stephen Fry reading it as the voice of the The Book?
