MS 361 with a GB Pro Top 24/25 inch bar test

Bah ha! Your list is nearly the same as the one I posted to the mods earlier this year, and they hit me with infractions. Nothing pseudo about it though. It is blatant rampant censorship over there. And collusion between the owner, mods and sellers. They cut and slice and dice threads and posts and what not, ban people for criticism and dump sponsors for not selling with HUGE margins. Curt is also leaving as an AS sponsor (says he is too busy) of CBaileys online. You can get stuff from him on Ebay stores though.

Cabin feaver indeed. Lots of storms and wind and rain this week in the US, and it is nearly the shortest day of the year here in the NH. I slept most of today. Yawn... time for a beer or three.

Well, seems cabin fever is setting in, happens every year I have observed.

newguy19 has already been banned!

Your kidding there really is a newguy19?

hey maybe you could refer curt bailey here?

Ekka · 18th December 2007, 10:13 PM

Crikey, there's a whole horde of bannings, those chainsaw fellas had a real hum dinger!

Now there's an Announcement if you complain you'll get trouble, I best lay low too.

There's some Goblin guy they all think is Sap or Newguy or something too, but since Goblin turned and gives me stick they like him more. Happens every year like clock work.

They also have the rep system, get those dots under your name. It's like gold to some, like stripes on a military uniform. Well, never really figured out how it all works etc or care much for it but Saw Troll got blasted out the water with some massive rep losses. He's like got 12,000 posts and only a few dots now.

What the rep systems allows is people to nail a guy. Rather than be a man and post what you want to say you rep people, positive or negative. So threads run for give me rep and people juice up, and neg rep threads and PM's also do the rounds and you pound people, you can leave a nasty little comment too, or a good one depending on what ya up to.

Means a lot to some people.

Yah. I put Goblin on my ignore list, as he has nothing of interest to say. Just stirs the shit, like telling us in the PNW that we deserve the flooding we got. As for them thinking some aliases there are the same as other aliases, that always happens in AS brawls it seems. Ralph the mod thought I was the same as RandyMac becasue I stood up for him when they completely blasted him off of AS. Randy lives in another state! As for being alternate aliases, that would be pretty easy. I have over a dozen email addresses out there on the internet.

But why would I want more than one alias? So I can talk to myself?

I do know that a lot of the big timber fallers are out that way, PNW has huge trees for sure, that with bad weather is bloody dangerous.

Did you ever get to see this video DBS arranged about loggers, was on cable TV there, bloody good.

Risk takers TV show "Loggers"

I'd like to see some of that fireman tree cutting footage too like smokechaser does, that should be the next show!

a_lopa · 19th December 2007, 01:24 AM

when are you getting a 361 Ekka?

Ekka · 19th December 2007, 01:48 AM

Not for me mate, I got 440, had a 360 once but it bogs in the heads.

If I did gums as often as you and less to no palms for sure, I'd just go from 200T to 361 then to your 46, 66 etc.

I thought the cow JUMPED over the moon. Ask your kids.

Heck, even I thought that was you... trying to get back on after being banned. Probably someone else trying to weasle in pretending to be you... and failed. Or someone trying to one-up you... by one.

We have big trees around here, for sure. Huge old doug firs. And older oaks and maples on this property. They pulled all the old growth firs off of here when the last owner had a heart attack. He had to pay for massive medical bills; they took 78 trucks of lumber off of the older zoned 200 acre lot that this property was part of then. Cedar, doug and grand fir. They cut everything down to 8 inches.

Thing about the PNW lately is that they are felling smaller and smaller trees now. The mills are not set up for bigger trees any more. So they get shipped farther. I still see a lot of trucks with like, one to three massve logs on them, 4-6 ft in diameter. Most go to Coos Bay where they are shipped overseas. Also the huge Wearhauser plant near here gets a lot of logs in from Canada on rail cars to process.

As for TV shows, my brother tells me that they have been fliming a logging show in Vernonia north-west of Portland. Supposed to be like the crazy Ice Road Trucker show, except for loggers. Weather here sucks today, like yesterday. Windy, raining, cold, snow level coming down. And more on the way! Cabin feaver is setting in. I went down to the local saw shop to get some loops, and yak with the locals. Should be flooding here again tonight.
