New aridzona transplant

[armadillofz1]

Been a member here for years. Sold my green stuff and moved out here to Marana Arizona from a communist state. I'll be looking for a deuce soon. They're as rare as hens teeth around here.

You need to go visit Jack at "Jack's Government Surplus" in Tucson. He's got a bunch of deuces and 5 tons. He has acres of inventory on 4 different yards!

Good news on the move. I like Arizona.

Please change your location to the correct state (not Aridzona).

Maybe it's a little tongue-in-cheek humor. Arid Zona? Get it? Arid?

Check out Craigslist "autos/trucks by owners" then type both "military," and "army" into their search engine (seperately of course) an you'll find all kinds of MV stuff for sale.

Prices of trucks are a little different out here. Took me 6 months to sell a beautifull rebuilt deuce for 4k back east. Out here $7500 for a rolling heap of bent steel. I think somewhere durring my move GL sold out of m35a2. I havent seen one on GL since i left. Been to jacks. Very cool place.

The rules do not allow for a bit of humor when listing your State of residence. This applies to both Armadillofz1 and MM58 (and every one else for that matter).

"Location: We require that all members include their state in their new member profile. This allows the other members to know their neighbors. Users who refuse to add their location will be subject to warning, temporary ban, and then permanent ban."

It says nothing of the spelling needing to be accurate, OR the need to be free of quip. This was my first post in nearly 2 years and i got an official warning email for it. This reminds me exactly of why it's been nearly 2 years since my last visit.

By the way, I double checked and OKC, OK are not states on my map of the United States. Although my map may be a decade or so old, I will have to recheck for a 51st state.

This is why the rules have to be so specific. What was once a few paragraphs is now a few pages. We'll add the verbage in your name.

It's amazing how such a simple rule can cause so much grief for a few folks.

Here's the updated map!

Thank you for updating your location.

OK is a state and OKC is the abbreviation for the airport code of Oklahoma City. The rules say nothing about listing the city. I added it for clarification of my location.

 

[USAFSS-ColdWarrior]

Cool, you now have an LZ in AZ. There's something poetic about that.

 

[mm58]

So... I guess Warthog lives at the Will Rogers World Airport (OKC), and Recovry4x4 lives somewhere in "South Florida"

Haha, sorry couldn't resist

the rule is fine. Appreciated even. But to be warned? A simple "hey change that" would have sufficed". Infact that was all covered in this thread. The saber rattling was over the top. Ill check back in another 2 years. Thanks guys.

 

[Recovry4x4]

I can speak with some degree or certainty that Recovry4x4 does live somewhere in South "Florida".

"Hey change that" like in post 3? Some folks fight the system every step of the way. We are instructed to use the warning system on "all" members so that there is a way to keep track of the troublemakers. It's the few troublesome folks who cause us to use they system we do. Hope you understand.

Oops, I think he is gone, hopefully he finds a truck, I need to head to Jack's next time I'm in Aridzona.
