Not sure if this has been mentioned for Prado owners looks fairly new.

Ah yes the exiled Pradopoint KLC members, I was wondering where they would pop up. May they talk about as many possums as they can fit into a Prado.

having to register to see anything is a bit of a put off.

Prado Wars... Increasingly forums seem to breed the horror stories which used to be the preserve of North Korea ... oops, I meantto type clubs!

Probably nothing to see, if you looked first you wouldn't join.

I thought that they just took the bat and ball home ,but obviously they have found a new backyard to play

I might join, for the fun of a wind up.
You see, my cousin is always bagin on about his Playdo, yet I simply reply with " Why is there a Landcruiser name in front when it is a Hilux underneath?"
Never fails to get a rise...... ;D

Now the war will really start! Fancy dragging respectable Hilux owners into the argument! May you die the death of 1,000 cuts ;D ;D

Never considered it from that side, with that in mind, I must retract my comment and offer my most sincere apologies to all Roll lux drivers.

I haven't looked at LCOOL in months due to what I consider OTT moderating and allowing one woman to rant about a person's post starting with gender biased "Gents", and then deleting posts that were not personal but critical of the rant.
I'd only be fooling myself to think that they miss me but I wasn't happy with the heat in the kitchen, so I left.

for those disenfranchised with the Lcool world
admittedly, these forums are in the start up phase, but are much more open to friendly banter and conversation. :cheers:
the newlandcruiser forum has been around for a while, but has got a wriggle on lately by a few members who have upgraded from dual cab hiluxes to dual cab cruisers, but lots of tech etc on all models- including the 60 series (LCOOL in joke)
the pradotech forum was formed due to the same sort of frustration with pradopoint
these places are what you make of them

OMG, tension in the Toyota camp ;D
Happens in all forums eventually, even this one :angel:

D4D u might be suprised what u see, no possum talk from were i am sitting. A lot of us have joined because we appreciate the way the forum is managed.

Agreed, I have only been a member of Lcool for six months but am not interested anymore due to the moderating, they seem really intense!, too intense!

Looks like the site is being moderated already.
-
Like a lot of Forums, if not all at some stage, personalities get too big and there are head clashes and urinating contests.
-
Can someone fill us non-Prado people in with regards to what was going on with moderation, possums and so on?

One big issue is some forums had the keys over to children, and that destroys the forum within weeks. that happened on patrol forum.

Ringtails, bushies or sugar gliders? That's a great question. I would say 500+ ringies.

I joined pradopoint earlier in the year when I downgraded to the prado and I have stayed well clear of any of that sort of behaviour.
(I have the electrical section on myswag for a half scale war or I can talk to the missus for a full scale war..... ;D)
HOWEVER - I did manage to come across this link today on there which I reckon is great...............For any prado owners out there....

A handful of newer members took it upon themselves to start a thread and talk about crap (possums). The possum talk took over other threads until they pretty much hijacked the entire site. The moderator, let's call him 'Big Pig', came back and banned the lot of them. The possum crew weren't happy about this, some free speech rant crap, and created new accounts with different names, these also got banned. Finally they took their bat and possums and buggered off.

Spot on Leigh.... I have read some of the electrical posts on Prado Point..... (Generally whilst eating lots of Popcorn!)

Sounds like a solid basis of information to base a forum on ::)
-
Actually if you read some of the banter on the new site that goes on between the banished ones, it would seem they have had a new site on the go for quite some time and deliberately set out to stir the pot at PP, I believe their still trying to do it under different user names in an attempt to poach PP members.
Interestingly enough their forum rules are more or less the same as or strictor than the PP ones they complained about.
-
Yes I have noticed lots of new members with 1 or 2 posts causing trouble but they seemed to get banned pretty quickly.

Yeah don't know why the electrical section always cause so much friction, seems everyone has a polarised view and only there's is valid.
If find it really frustrating when you provide manufactures own data showing their devices aren't as good as they say and people still don't accept it. Dam where's my valium:)

They did not create new accounts but they did bugger off. It's very flattering that you are still talking about us. Your obsession with the KLC is getting a bit old now, try to let it go and move on.

No one is interested in stirring any pot or poaching, the internet is big enough for two prado sites. The rules are very similar because the message board software that is used, is the same and available for anyone to use and set up a new forum. There were no complaints about any of the rules. I personally was unhappy with what was IMO unfair use of the rules.
At the end of the day, people who like PP will stay there and people who do not will move on, that's life and we all have the right to do as we choose.

How many forums are there, or perhaps it is best I don't know.
I struggle having a look around just this 1, plus now, thanks to a dodgy car some idiot bought (ME ;D) I am on another to try and sort it.

Tell me about it, I spend half my day flitting from one to another, the Landcruiser one above might be interest to
you but not many members as yet, or LCOOL, forgot there's also 4x4action, lots of car tech stuff on there.

I said it years ago.. We don't need more, we need less forums but with better content and control... but the pissing competitions will kill that off everytime, and every 12yr old wants to be a moderator on his own forum.
Theres about 10 Patrol forums inc Yahoogroups.
-
A bit off topic, but the hell would anybody need any forum other than myswag???
Geez what a strange world we live.
Next you'll be telling me theres more to life than beer and fire.....................
Strewth a bloke can't take it.

Now, back on topic. Weren't we talking about possums???? >:D

;D ;D ;D
Now I can't talk for any other Prado owners but the first mod I did on my camper trailer (MDC T-Box V3) was to strip out the carpet and apply liquid water proofing to the inside of the trailer. With my Champion Aqua Cube and my built in under body water tank I can knock up 80l of jelly in 15 minutes.
I think you need a few creature comforts after a hard days drive in the outback.

To get this thread back on Topic, it was to highlight a new forum for Prado owners, www.pradotech.com (http://www.pradotech.com) from our point of veiw it doesn't matter wether u belong to another forum or not all memebers will be treated equal. All i can say is a lot of the user names are very familiar.

I would like to look first before having to register on this new forum. Why can't you do that?
I think that will limit some of the new people wanting to have a look to see if they want to join.
BTW who owns or is the top level Admin of the "Pradotech.com" forum?
Cheers

It's the same admin/ owner as the newhilux, Newtriton, forums. Same login restrictions as well, and they have been going very strong. It's a choice to register to a forum

They should register and log on to the Prado forum and look then.. if they don't like it they leave it.. not hard.

My point is, what have many of the threads on here really got to do with the MySwag CT theme?
If people aren't interested in a thread, don't read it... Simple I thought

OK just my opinion - and it is in the general discussion section, so I reckon its OK.
Comments like the quoted post are the reason I love myswag.
We can have a healthy discussion - debate - argument, or whatever you wish to call it without getting nasty or offended.
Such humour is exactly why I love this forum.
Information when needed, help when asked for, and a lot of humour to go round.
Sometimes tongue in cheek, but still always funny.
And for those that choose the urinating contents you can always post a thread in the leccie section about 6B&S dc:dc chargers on a solar panel to get the war you require.............
And of course there's always the informative helpful post chucked in there to actually help the bloke / lady that asked..........
On the topic of ladies ------- Great to see so many on myswag.
A good balance of people with like minds and different opinions, happy to share a tale, talk bs and have fun.............
Now who's our first candidate for the "Myswag" party.
I nominate Speewa as he stands for what we all believe in - beer, fire and camping with a good laugh.......
Cheers all,
Brian

Brian, I've only been on this forum for a few days and only came here because I was told that members were spreading nasty untruths about me and my close friends and I joined up to have my say. Turns out what was said wasn't that bad and it's all forgotten now. Truth be told I miss those guys as much as they obviously miss me, as they were always good for a pissing contest which can be fun as long as the wind doesn't change!
The humour here is great and I've been made to feel very welcome. I'm still a little dazed and confused that so many of the good people here know about the pets I have and what I drink. I can only guess some of you guys were munching popcorn at my crusifiction. Bloody Peoples Front of Judia. IMO PP is still a great resource and I have no axe to grind, unfortunately after 3+ years on the forum my SOH became incomparable with its style of moderating. That's all I'm going to say about the matter but if anyone wants to know more grab yourself a maxi combo and PM me lol
Now I'm on this forum, I will be hanging around as I love my CT as much as my Prado (MDC T-Box V3 which I have tested to destruction in the outback and put all the bits that fell off back on or replaced if I couldn't find them.)
Fishy, Hutch will help you get on to PT, hang in there. Anything you want to know about jelly just ask, I'm the Jelly Guru!
