How did you find Tree World?

Eric Frei · 6th May 2007, 01:33 PM

Just a quick poll and if you can make a few notes on how you found this forum.

Me, well, I created it, then a bunch of good guys helped grow it ... and here we are.

Sean Freeman · 6th May 2007, 05:28 PM

Can't honestly remember, voted other because I think it was from Erics web page, after heading there from AS.

JohN Dee · 7th May 2007, 06:27 PM

I woke up one morning and my dad was like: "John, Ekka started his own forums, geez he even made them look a a-like (the set out)" lol.

So I joined and here I am today, contributing and helping to make Tree World the No. 1 forum ahead of all of the other Arb' forums.

Great work Ekka.

Eric Frei · 19th July 2007, 08:21 AM

If all goes well Quintrex we'll have a regular column.

I have already written next edition, has to be in by 5th of the month prior to publication. Hopefully Kurt prints it coz first time I was missed out by error.

I just write about certain threads here for those readers who haven't visited.

Hey, Quintrex is a tinny up here, are you into fishing?

Oldtimer · 20th July 2007, 02:37 AM

,I saw a link from Ekka's other web site

treeseer · 29th July 2007, 11:04 AM

I saw a rave review at the Tree House!

Eric Frei · 29th July 2007, 11:23 AM

Hahaha

You are getting funny now Guy

Steve Tipton · 30th July 2007, 08:38 PM

Hi Ekka,
Yeah, right into fishing, deep sea and bass in the rivers and dams. I live in Sydney, but evey year a group of us head for Cape York, around Weipa area. Usually stay at a mate's house in Hervey Bay for a week on the way home and fish there.
By the way,I tried to enter the quailified arborist section and was refused access. I am cert 3 from TAFE and cert 5 diploma fron ACAS as well as many other relevant qualifications and have been in the business since 1977. How do I get a look in there?
PS I have a 5 metre Quinny with 90 hp yammie motor.
Regards, Steve

Eric Frei · 31st July 2007, 12:02 AM

Yeah that was to get them to stop squeaking right? Darn noisy buggers.

newguy18 · 8th September 2007, 01:56 AM

Thats as stupid as a guy I met in Hommasassa ,fl the spray his tree with diesel to keep them from getting oak wilt.

Apparently his dad told him it wouldn't hurt the tree.

clementine · 8th September 2007, 08:53 AM

That little tree of mine has never looked better since it's oiling

.
It killed all the sap sucking bugs. A few leaves died but the difference is remarkable mate!

Maybe the tree saving qualitys of WD40 will become legendary!

newguy18 · 8th September 2007, 10:06 AM

Soon it will be on the isa test.

Roller · 9th September 2007, 09:44 PM

Special invite! if I remember correct or like Guy I may have read a review over on you know where...
