You know what really grinds my gears? ;)

When people here (or any other forum) quote a post. Bad? No. But the post they happen to quote has ****ing 23 pictures. So you're left loading 46 pictures because some *** monkey didn't have the common courtesy to just quote your text instead of all the pics.

So from now on, if I come into a thread, and you quote them with every pic from their post, I'm editing out the pics. If you quote a post with a single picture and are asking a question that references that picture, I'll leave it. But, what'd be even nicer (especially for the few dial up users we still have) is to simply not quote all the freaking pictures.

Thanks, have a nice day.

a-friggen-greed!

EeePee · 08-01-2005, 11:12 PM

Same!!! And quoting the first post, when you're the second poster. It's like DUH!!!

Or quoting the whole post, when you're answering the last sentence.

And these stupid people who use internet shorthand. Dumbsh!ts!

O I C U R 2 cool! **** you dumbass.

Ahh, I feel alittle better, thanks PWT. I'm supporting ya.

well i guess it bugs me not because of pics loading (i have cable modem) but because i really dont want to scroll that much either. just want to see what he was quoting.

however i have a friend with really slow dialup and it sucks.

See, if its a build up thread I've already read, and I want to see what people have said, it bugs me having to have tons of junk loading. I scroll down, start reading, and then a few more pics load and the screen jumps down and I have to find my spot again.

Yeah, quoting the post when they haven't made any other reply is retarded. We know you're referencing the main poster unless you specify otherwise. Glad I'm not alone on this one.

Internet shorthand, read the sig

I almost quoted it too. Didn't want CSR's head to get any bigger than it already is!

Just kidding CSR.

First off, this is my favorite chassis I've built, so I dont think I will build to many more (Im ganna get a pic of all the chassis I've built) It has a good amount of articulation, verrrry low cog. Just about everything is below the tires

The crawler isn't complete because I havn't finished the battery mount (dont no where) and the body mounts. Thats all I could think of off the top of my head though.

Dogbones:

Info on how I made my dogbones, if yall ever need to. Sorry for the poor quality pics of the dogbones, my camera doesn't like close ups.

As you can see, one of the dogbones has tubing in the middle, and it brazed togethter at the end of the tubing. I just drilled a hole on each side of the tubing, and cut my dogbones in half. I then filed down the amount that I needed to make it fit, and brazed it togetther.

The other dogbone was made from 1/8th solid rod, and a drill bit. I made the rod the lenght I needed it. I then cut two holes at the ends (horizontal) , and cut my drillbit in half. I made sure the drill bit wasn't to big or to small, and I brazed it togethter.

And onto the truck. (Body isn't mounted on)
