Search
Good discussion!
I agree that a lot of the questions are repeats. It's the nature of the forum topic that folks are going to ask about the same things, and let's face it, people can be lazy (me included). I work with databases, which this forum is a type of . In order to make searches effective, there's gotta be "metadata"--- which is a fancy term to indicate "what search topics or summary words are best associated with this information" as targets for searches. That's over the top for a forum, but it's helpful to remember when describing a topic to stash some keywords in there that people might be searching for . Another idea (I'm just thinking out loud). When folks ask the same question, let's point them (with a link?) to the answer if it exists in the "how to " section. Maybe if that's done enough times this will help, rather than just saying "go search for it". I was interested in wheel size for a 123 recently. I did try searching but came up with no pertinent info, and a lot of extraneous noise. Again, keywords would have helped this, but it's a lot to ask whenever we post, I know. Just some more ideas.... I'm not a facebook fan either, but there's reasons people go there. If we want to have/keep this forum an active dynamic one, we'll need to make it so.

But I will tell you I'm no expert! While things change, change is not for everybody. I enjoy the group here, and the variety of how enthusiasts care and maintain their tractors. I've handed over hundreds and hundreds of dollars to folks here because of the trust and loyalty I find here. No need for faceplant ever, for anything in my life and that's fine with me! You have to draw hard lines in life, and stand for good things. This is where and why I like being around OCC

I think this site will keep rolling along. I see fewer and fewer people everyday that can work on and repair anything. They are products of our throw away society. A lot of the newbies here need a few kind words and encouragement. I know I've asked for help in the past after searching and other people find what I didn't. My Dad (RIP) used to get mad at me when we talked on the phone while searching for something. He couldn't understand why my search was different from his. If we typed the same words it had to be the same results. He'd get so mad and hang up on me. So my point offer kind words and lets all get along. I've spent many of hours looking through old posts, and I saving threads for future projects.

Not much to complain about here at OCC! While some folks responded by noting a end of the year slow down in group activity, I went on to mention a few notes of my own. This really is the best forum around. Look at other sites, they are plagued with ad's, or you have to be of select few to understand how post pictures, and much of their FAQ's are so out dated and don't allow for other member's to participate in well documented experiences with these tractors. So, I for one, suggest we look back at some threads, and list them in the Tips and How-to sections, for many good reasons! Also, the encouragement and promotion to the next generation of Cub Cadet enthusiasts.

I've been having a hard time checking in- busy time of the year..and I have a 3 MO daughter. Don't get me wrong I've used my cub plenty of times this month. We've got dumped on multiple times- I even got to use it yesterday morning before Christmas mass. Went to start it up today but it hadn't been plugged into the charger overnight and with it being 11 degrees she didn't want to fire.

If you want a site to sit and BS go to FB.... Winter time = Less seat time
Brevity is the real sign of intelligence. Don't need old threads opened up or rehashed....Its called a search... The ones that need to know, know what I'm doing... Like I tell my employees... Be Brief Be Brilliant Be Gone This site is another tool in the tool box... Some wrenches are better than others... : - ) |

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
