    Overlander tripe

    I don't know.....

    This bloke on Overlander reckons that the guys from LROC (13 vehicles and probably 25 people) were rude to him on Saturday during our trip to Yengo and Wollemi National Parks. I can't believe (knowing the group now) that ANY of us were anything other than decent people to anyone we came across.

    Read about it here, and if you know people at, you'll understand that they are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet on the trail.

    Well looks like that's going to start a little fun.

    Looking at the thread I can see why some members have such high post counts; looks like a permanent 4wd slanging match.



    Cheers

    It can be a good forum to lurk in - and at other times it's a childrens' playground.

    Unbelievable :roll: My advice - do not lower yourself to this guy's level by engaging in a slagging match, wont do anyone any good.

    Gets me pretty fired up though some of those responses

    Keep flying the flag, Mick

    I agree with Mick. I've spent a lot of time there before, and it's better to ignore than to get sucked in.

    Your words can always be twisted around, and it's like talking to a brick wall sometimes!!!

    I think that the Land Rover owners' responses have been pretty level so far. No one is going silly. Just stated the facts.

    We still don't know what the complaint is even about.

    I agree Omaroo and credit where credit is due. Strange how he hasn't mentioned what the alleged "incident" was :roll:

    Will follow with interest as I'm keen to know what has got his back up. Also agree with cewilson.........

    I had a read through the posts and concur, the regulars there seem to be just as scornful of his supposed "beef" landy drivers or not, surprise surprise on the non landy drivers. Probably someone ( looks like a newbie) who's just trying stir a pot, ie join in the ol landy bashing. Funny how since he has been politely slammed from all corners he hasnt come back so far with anything?? 8O

    Regards
