Post #40 was what I was refering to. You guys posted twice while I was typing. I don't think you have to do it, but I didn't think #40 was necessary for reasons that I covered. I'm not mad at you Coop, I was just calling BS on that one. You're doing a kick ass job. Keep up the good work and don't forget to designate more and get good grades. :)
I really don't see how Coop or anyone else who isn't even going out to 47, is responsible for making the phone calls and organizing a small spur of the moment outing for only a few people to "test" their rigs. Whoever is planning on going on the run should be responsible for contacting Steve, not anyone else, and it is wrong for people to think that Steve or Jason is going to be waiting hand and foot just so people can go and wheel on his property. I mean there should be more respect for him than that. The cause of all of this is the people that can't get there **** straight and decide on a time to go, people posting that they want to go one day then deciding it's not going to work for their schedule and trying to change something that's already set (not like this outing was) is just selfish. If you can't make it, then don't go, no one else should have to change their plans just because of one person. Everyone just needs to decide on a time and date, call Steve and ask if we can go out there, then everyone just plan on that. There's just been alot of assuming that we can wheel anytime and that's not the case, there needs to be more respect and scheduling put in place.
I agree with what David said.

It seems like we go through this everytime somebody tries to go out there and I really cannot understand why
Getting a trip together to go to 47 should not be hard. People don't have a problem agreeing on a time to show up at McDonalds to go to Alto or Gilmer, but somehow it always gets pooched when the place is ten minutes away.
I was even convinced that I was the reason that planning these trips was a ginormous clustering event, but I didn't even have a hand in this one, so that must not be it.
I don't think it's Steve, because in my dealings with him he's been accomodating almost to a fault. Jason as well is ready to go whenever anybody is interested. All I can think is that nobody in the club thinks it's important to set a time and date and stick to it, no matter how much we try to explain that this is important.
Would somebody please change permissions to make sure that Jason can post, at least in the Off-road trips forum, and if Steve is watching the boards now, get him setup so he can post up as well?
i agree with david but eric is right, thats just the way the place is. its not a katemcy rocks... but even with that place its not like we can just plan a trip a week or so ahead of time and then just not show up when we say we are or change our mind. its his private land and if we want to use it in the future we have to follow his rules.... its not like he needs our money.
jason does have access to the boards and steve is more than welcome to if he would like to set up a name.
weak wasnt necessarily directed at you. just a general comment beause the trip ended up not materializing. however, now that you bellyached... :flipoff2:
