Compact Web Ring

theboman · Jul 7, 2001

Are there any compact tractor web rings? Or B7500 web rings? Or Kubota web rings? Now with all this ringing going on I can only say: Hello?

Also, I'm thinking of settin' up a Compact Tractor page: Just info for us'ns! Links to dealers, manufacturers, other compact owners, etc. No to compete against anything (check my site and you'll see I don't even do banners), just as another way to get us compact folkies a place to spin a (tire) few more minutes online.

22 hours on my B7500 and loving every minute of it, except of course when I have to really work. My only complaint is I should have bought it in the spring.

Don't know about a ring. I don't spend enough "web" time to justify it myself. Usually on some kind of mission.

Go for it on the website. Although I get most of my tractor fix here, and on Lucy (my B7500/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif).

How long have you had yours? We got ours in the spring. What a MAJOR work saver! We love Lucy! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

What's a web ring?

I guess, like Alan, I don't know what a web ring is, and don't know how it would differ from this site. However, I've found that time is limiting what I can do on the net, so I've almost quit visiting any tractor sites other than this one.

I have the same question as the other guys: How does a "web ring" (?) differ from this site?

Not to be discouraging, but I'm also with Bird, about the usefulness of another site.

TBN has a proven track record of usefulness, congeniality and broad experience-base of members, willing to help anyone, with any imaginable question. All this run by Muhammad, who is attentive and responsive to any problems or suggestions.

It is more than I can do to read all the posts HERE that might be of interest or practical use, ...I probably would not try to fit another one into my available time. To me, this comes under "If it aint broke, don't fix it."

Just don't see the need. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

A follow-up to my last post:

Trying to be open-minded here, ...I've got a couple of questions.

Have you really looked around at the wealth of forums/threads, about nearly everything imaginable concerning "compact tractors" on THIS site?

If so, could you explain what it is that you find lacking, that you would like to have on another site ("web ring") ? /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Also, you answered the question about "How long have you had your...?". How about the" What is a web ring?" one?

Thanks,

Larry

A web ring is just like your wedding ring. Your so nuts about her (it) you want to make sure everyone knows about it. (She like wise and so you start a diary and photo album with pictures a a discription of every breath you take. ( start a personal web site), So you would like to meet the same type of wak heads (married folks) (tractor nuts) as you so you start meeting at the local coffee shop (tractorbynet.com) but your boring some of the people with all your newly wed (tractor BS) talk but not everyone. So the next time you come you bring your diary and pictures (baby {tractor}) toss them in the corner and one or two people look at them (because they have a baby) and you don't bore everyone. The ones that looked asked if they can bring their baby pictures (the ring has started) and before you know it there is a group of people meeting that aren't bored but if they really want more information about you and your baby, they can go to your personal diary/photo album (web site) and talk to you about the colour of you kids crap. Your glad to have someone look at your ugly kid so you put there phone number in the diary (link their web site to your) and before it everyone who love ugly baby pictures can easily find like minded people and ownly have to see/listen to all the boring detail if they want to.
Thats what a web ring is?

...and then pretty soon you could paper the walls of your "corner of the room" with a kid's crap-color photo collection? /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif

Just how boring DOES it get when you're snowed in up in Canada??

It doesn't, we sniff out those personal encounters and stay clear. If you get the drift.
But I do have an ex-friend who, at the old fart age of 47, I'm 48 myself) had his first child (by emaculate conception by the sounds of it and they have a web site of every gorey boring detail. I've been there once. Had to defrag the hard drive after.
Boy that was close.
