I agree, I have been here a long time but don't say much.

We have to remember that some of the people that come here don't know the difference between a wrench and a screwdriver. But they have come to learn and we can turn them into someone who can fix there own stuff and continue this hobby, or we can turn them away.

Sometimes they don't even know enough to know how to search for things and don't need negative answers.

Thanks to all those who take the time to help new guys and us that have been around awhile!




Randy

The post is not to single anyone out. If two members have an issue with each other, I feel that it should be taken care of via PM. No need for it to be in the open forum. Just my

I agree. As a new member, it's very off putting to read a bunch of teenage girls complain to each other. PM someone if you have an issue.

It makes it even worse when people can't spell or use correct grammar when trying to lay the smack down. Just makes them look even worse.

Please everyone play nice and treat people the way you want to be treated...

Well said Allen. The Internet Forum is a funny place. There is a natural progression for some people who at the beginning were very willing to share their knowledge and experience, but as time goes by and successes increase, some heads tend to expand, thus giving a false superiority complex.

Then, as more time passes and evolution takes place, new members join and the ones with superiority complexes have no patience for the newbies in the evolution, since they feel themselves so far beyond. Too many "been there's, done that's" and the knowledge of where all the bodies are buried within the forum make some impatient. That behaviour has to stop.

New members are the lifeblood of this forum. Without them, and the new ideas that come from them, this group will quickly exhaust itself with nothing more to say, like the walking dead. Most of you know yourselves that there is nothing new under the sun for these old machines, everything that can be done, has been done. One could literally close all discussion and make it a "look up" site for everything is already there.

But alas, that is not really the purpose here. It is a community of discussion for every now and again something new comes around from a new member that makes this site worth talking about.

So true, Rob! That's why I try to treat everyone well. I treat people the way, I want to be treated. All the members are what makes the site.

Well said! To tell you the truth, I laughed when I read this. My thoughts exactly. But I wouldn't sugar coat it........

Someone who is "smart" joins the forum. They are knowledgeable and an asset to the forum. They get promoted and this is when their head starts to swell. Swell so much, everyone else doesn't know anything. Then if that's not enough, let's make fun of new forum members to get a laugh out of it for what, maybe a handful of people? So sad. I'd really like to get my Son involved here on the forum, atleast letting him read some threads and see some pics of the nice cubs owned by the members. But it's pretty bad I'd have to censor stuff, so alas, the next generation will won't be allowed to read threads on here. Like Rob said, this happens every couple months or so. BTW, nothing to do with thick skin. Everything to do with people skills. Or lack there of in this case.

Allen, most of us agree with you. Thanks for mentioning this again. To all newer members, hang around. Don't let the actions of a few ruin what this forum is/could be. A great place to hang out, shoot the breeze, and talk cubs............Atleast that's why I joined. Not to monopolize the forum. Carry on.....

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.
