    I used to run a tech forum using vbulletin... there are parameters that can be set to eliminate those ten "not a nice word" comments... in a row. While it is "their game their rules" a few simple changes would make sense...

    And, yes, i was warned about craetive spelling for certain words...

    I’m perfectly fine with being told to not bypass the filter. Just a habit I had, have from my years as a heavy equipment operator. But I catch myself and edit myself.

    My only issue, and trust me, my industry, you better have thick skin, is that 4m is a business, so treat your customers, us, as a professional would. We are adults, treat us as such unless we are a jerk to you first. Not the case, and yes it’s their sandbox, so I’m trying to not leave presents. But was went about quite unprofessional.

    It's their playground and they can send you home with your ball at any time. I suppose we can all go dance in traffic, maybe loot some stores or complain on tv about how they discriminate against us sailors. I think I'll hold off until the weather warms up a bit.

    I got the same message from her too CageFaraday. It's a bit over the top on the way she says it. I logged off for a few days to keep from telling her where to put her PM. I'll move on from it and not say anything back. We aren't playing on a level playing field CageFaraday. They have the "Ban" option to use on us and not a thing 1 we can do about it.

    I work for a large construction company outta Columbus, Ohio, been around since 1911. I primarily run front end loaders on pipe crews. But in the winter, and because I’m new to the company (May 17’), most anything. I’ve operated for 20 years this year. Was on a big basement job, but I’m talking middle of Columbus, on High Street. A darn near city block basement. Going to be a parking garage and 5 story dorm for OSU students. Ran a tracked skidsteer mostly, prepping the walls for lagging, and just the all around gopher for all the guys out there. I was the only one with forks.

    I can run backhoes, trackhoes, dozers, rollers, ones I’ve mentioned, gradalls, tractors with drag boxes, most anything really. Though front end loaders are my main machine. Here you gotta be versatile, good, and not a jerk. Finished that basement job, Monday I’m going to a Pepsi job on the east side. Couple weeks or so in an off road truck. They keep me working, I don’t really care. Prefer a cab, but I can do without.

    I’m in the Operators Union outta Columbus. But luckily I don’t have to work outta the hall. I don’t wanna ever. I wanna stay with a good company with good machines, and so far the move has been a good one.

    Just an idea, you don’t wanna see it and read it, don’t click on it and read it. I know, mind boggling, shocking idea.
