something for you to aspire to rokhound? i watch the decent threads get destroyed by crap posts and trivial shite from the masses. leave ya thread intact rokhound.

andrew. you'll find people will post replies to tech questions if infact they have relevant knowledge to the situation. if not, then they know when to shut up.

pretty much, its better to be silent and thought a fool, then speak and confirm it.

Most people need to try the search (which I know is a bit of arse on ORE) because there only seemed to be a handful of guys answering the tech questions, and they quite often ended up being the same questions doing another round. And quite frankly the guys who spend their time building, and taking pics and doing write ups on here just so it can be buried in a pile of off topic BS just can't be bothered anymore

It is after all a 4wd forum, not a "my wife has pmt again" forum

Wait, people come on here for tech? I thought this was where you came to have random conversations on irrelevent topics right in the middle of a build thread??

Ok ok. I get it guys. :shock:
I enjoyed this thread to.

Once I've said my bit here i hope rokhound will resume and things get back to normal...

I'm guilty of posting crap above anyone on ORE. We all know that.

I've been on here to long. Had to many mods done on my truck. I get bored coz I'm retired or don't have a job.

So if I stop. Will everyone else stop posting shit?? Please?

Really. When I posted "Womans Weekly" shite on ORE. I wasn't expecting any kind of response aye. I'd just do it coz I was bored. Then when people would voice their thing on a topic such as, "child support gripes" to name one? I didn't think it would get the response. I thought it would end up being a pm thing. So it snow balled from there.

I get it that the majority here don't want the off topic shit. And that's fair enough.

I farked off from here earlier coz I was threaten with a law suit. Which was fair enough to.

I enjoy reading build threads. I enjoy reading trip threads. I enjoying being here.

I don't enjoy pissing people off here, let alone making people leave ORE.

I'll refrain from starting Womans Weekly threads ok guys!

My apologizes.


Can we please get this thread back on topic now rokhound?

Thanks for that Pete,

As i have said to you, this was not all about any one person, but if we can get things back on track one person at a time, I am cool with that.

I have all the pics from my build (along with write ups) stashed elsewhere, is the general consensus that I repost these?

YES!

For those whose idea of welding is accidentally dropping a spanner on the battery.. reading what people with skills can do is great.

Sounds good rok but be prepared to take them off again. To make it easier to do that you better do them all on the 1st post as this thread is fawked (as with most threads) and it would all get lost in this dribble (like most threads) :lol:

And yea - it'll happen agian.

I'd hate to see people take their threads away from this forum because of what the other 12% of the forum is doing (Smokey stated in his thread: 6 out of the top 50 were offtopic)

Sure if petefj40 was posting 25 new threads everyday about shit I'd be upset too - still can't find any 'womens weekly' shit and if refering to the child support thread then I'll take offence to that and also note that theres quite a few other guys on here dealing with that sort of problem and its good to be able to talk to each other about it even though nobody has messaged me when I asked but however..

I enjoyed seeing The Mutts use of box section :D

And I mean really, this is an internet forum - is it really worth getting wound up and starting a shit fight about?

Maybe put it in the "builds" section of the site so only you can post in there, get rid of some of the bullshit.

Nothing worse than trying to look through your build in a year or so as a reference and coming across 5 or so pages like this.
Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level then beat you with experiance!
