    Nothing's changed in 45 years. Everybody showed their individuality by being like everybody else.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    1-Craigs listers that say they have something for free, going to be out at such and such time and don't list an address or respond to emails.
    2- fire extinguisher chems
    3- bs artists
    4- people that believe the bs artists and repeat it as their own thought
    5- when I grab for a smoke and find the last one is broken in half
    6- no beer in the cooler and my brother is finishing the last one( this is after the tools are all put away of course

    I hate, seeing a skip close by, then thinking I'll do it later at night time, forgetting about it & getting up early the next day, to find it gone..
    Tellus vacuum, microwave, stereo, misc electric gear & high Q tape cassettes... All gone.

    I hate, the fat little **** who comes along to my yard source & smashes the 2 TV's for the copper wire.
    He only gets the degauss-er & the yoke & leaves the place in a mess & also takes the clothes drier thats there &
    steals any 'metal of weight'.

    Suggestions? What's wrong with it?

    I use 'advanced search', put in the keyword I'm looking for and select 'search titles only' then search. Works for me pretty well.

    On another note, if everyone used tags and more descriptive titles for their threads, the search function would actually be much easier to use. I may actually make a thread about this specifically.

    That would help a lot.

    Probably the bigger gripe is that whenever someone asks a question they get steamrolled by the "use the search function" brigade as if that hadn't been tried.

    Maybe it is just a philosophical difference but I am member on several forums and have never seen people react to questions the way they do here. I see that there is a page here for the specific purpose of asking questions and it happens there as well. Just seems rude to me.

    http://www.scrapmetalforum.com/showt...-Post-a-Thread - How to post a good thread on the forum.

    I hear you, it's getting better that's something specifically we've been working on.

    In fact, new members go through a whole new process after registration now which includes alot of direction. Additionally, the negativity and repeated issues with users being 'rude' like this have also been addressed and from what I can see we're DEFINITELY improving on that note.

    I don't believe we've had any real issues on those lines in a while now. The reports coming in have decreased at least 200% over the past month or so from what I can see.

    These are all issues we address and consider, however not everything is discussed and made public in real time so although you might not be aware that we're aware of issues like these, we are in fact consistently working on improving the forum and correcting these issues the best we can. It's a tough job but we're always moving forward.

    If we are talking about pet peeves in regards to scrapping I would say (I dont have to rhyme do I?):
    1. going to pickup an item and when you get there someone else is picking it up
    2. government rules and regulations for scrapping
    3. work truck breaking down
    4. recycle yard closed
    5. moving stuff with an inexperienced person (injuries are likely)
