Proliferation of Spotted in XYZ Threads

[p38arover]

I agree. Why post about spotting an LR — unless it is special?

[The ho har's]

Ummm am I missing something here?... when on the spoted thread does someone usually put up a pic.... Yeah we say things like ...an Ex-mil I haven't seen before...or I spoted Dick the other day.....Can't say I have ever seen too many pictures though.

I've never looked at the threads so I don't know.

Yeah sorry about that Mrs H. I was having trouble with a faulty zipper on a new pair of jeans I just bought.

Whats with these "Spotted in Xyz" threads that have sprung up on the forum.

I can understand it if there is something special about the vehicle then fine but most are everyday vehicles - a landie with a white roof ain't special.

If I and everyone else posted up every Landie spotted on the way to the shops the forum would be overrun with posts.

So we have Spotted in Qld, Spotted in WA, Spotted in Vic, Spotted in NSW?? - Why not the other states or even spotted in Goulburn, Frankston.

Maybe some rules need to be developed to cover what type of vehicle is listed - but for me spotted a Green Defender with White Roof is no big deal.

I guess as a serial offender occasionaly posting stuff from time to time from Asia, Africa etc I hadn't figured on ****ing a whole lot of people off. I can now see the error of my ways.

So, heading to Arizona, Utah and New Mexico next week to meet up with a bunch of USA series zealots - one guy has 8 including a 1950's S1. Guess I better leave the camera at home and forget about posting photos.

Who's a grinch?

Mate ,you take your camera and post the photos. Ill bet a whole bunch of us would like to see them.

Hey yeah!
Put up a thread "Spotted in America".
Don't limit your spottings to Landrovers though. Post up anything interesting "(except photo's of Walmart customers).

Hey Incisor, maybe there should be a "Spotted" section in the "General Forums". Make it accessible and viewable to AULRO logons only (except Garry).

I say, "post whatever you like" (within the rules of course), it will either:

• get replies
• get grammar and spelling adjustments
• die a natural death,
• get merged
• get locked
• get deleted
  
  (Sometimes more than one!)
  
  I think natural selection works fine here.

I could post up about the D2 with bling wheels I saw today but I shall refrain.
