Good bye Arbtalk

[liam]

I have been a member on AT for around 5 years and in that time have spent a lot of time on here, in that time i have learnt some interesting things and have made some good contacts that i still do jobs for. But recently it just seems to be going around in circles, what saw should i buy, what truck should i get, how much are you selling wood for etc etc etc. I have been in the industry for over 20 years and have had experience in most aspects from commercial forestry to turf laying, I am not saying that i am an expert but i do know my way around a chainsaw and tractor. It seems there are a lot of young guys on here that hang on the words of the "senior members". I didn't know until recently, that all you need to do to become a senior member is post a certain amount of post, so i could come on here and post lots of posts about rubbish then become a senior member, then some college lad comes on here ask a question then this "senior member" answers his question and the lad would think it was gospel.

I mentioned earlier that i have had some work from the site but i have also had some complete wastes of time and money and that was from a "senior member".

Anyway enough of my rantings as the mods will probably take this down before it gets put up.

Stay safe and don't take everything you read on here as gospel:thumbup:

Not even one post per month for 5 years?

You need to participate a bit more than that if you want to influence the site at all.

Whatever works for you.

 

There certainly is a lot of 'background chatter'.

 

Lots of things go round and round.

 

but ever so often something happens....

Which on its own makes the whole thing worthwile IMO
