And he only does it because he gets off on all the attention it gets him.

Stop.

Feeding.

The.

Trolls.

If you guys stop giving him the attention he craves, he will do one of two things;

1. He will quit doing it and start communicating "normally". We all know he can, because any post more than a couple of sentences he "forgets" his schtikk for a couple lines.

2. He will pack up and leave. Maybe come back under a new name and give up all this attention seeking BS.

But as long as you keep feeding him the attention he wants, he's going to keep doing it. It's what trolls do.

Yes, (removed). You could be making a good point but I've given up trying to translate. It's lost in the wind ................

The posting style of a single member is not the topic of this thread.

And who made you the forum police?

Haha Jazz Fest? Who doesn’t like slogging around in shrimp boots all day? You make a good point though. NOLA has turned into a train wreck.

Be careful, this doesn't give you any warning, just happens.

Did you have tractor seat belt fastened during this event?

Was the ROPS up?

 

[murphy1244]

Did you have anything on the rear before you picked the load up?

Fred is proud of his Justin Wilson speak and his Cajun heritage and likes us to know. I find he is knowledgeable about welder topics and sometimes even fab and welding topics but I can't understand what he's trying to say half the time so I just skip his responses anymore and it's becoming increasingly obvious most everyone else does too. That schtick was funny the very first time I read it but not anymore.

I have been skipping his nonsensical posts for quite awhile now.
Not even worth commenting on.

Got a 915kg bag of horsefeed on the float, called a bulker, big heavy woven poly bag with 4 loops on the top corners, bucket off and hay spikes on, two loops on each spike and push to back of spikes, gently lift , no worries, easy then suddenly back wheels up in the air and we are tipping over sideways.
Got the FEL down faster than I thought possible, crash.... as it comes back on its wheels, smack my head on the ROPS.
Bugger, that was too close, find front left wheel is in a bit of a dip, back out, move float to level ground and go in again, lift gently and drive float out from under it, drop to ground, engage 4WD, lift about 2" off the ground, tippy toe bag of feed into shed on front wheels not taking hand off lever.
Two things as a result of this, all previous bags have been 750kg and no problems, that extra 160 kg is enough to make it nasty, also just bought a counterweight and picking it up tomorrow, 500kg, comes empty and just have to fill it with sand, hopefully this will fix the problem.
Back wheels are full of water for ballast too but just need that bit extra.

Gives new meaning to "earning your stripes". Time to turn the underwear inside out?

A tough lesson that many have learned the hard way.

1. No
2. Yes, always up, storage area 15'+ high, no need to drop.
3. No homily on #1, I know.
