My climbing experience is limited, having gone with a girl I used to date a few times and her club, but I do know that ropes don't last forever. I am pretty sure they say once you have a fall on one, that you need to retire it, or there are a certain number of falls per rope before you have to retire it. Certainly, this is not as much stress as a fall, but I don't think I would trust my life to a rope that has been hanging there since last year, in the elements, with countless number of people swinging from it.
