Tried to link this video a couple of weeks back but couldn't format it properly at the time. I found this on a Facebook page. Guy has an Rz tank, made in India, and he has done a vid to prove why buying one is a bad idea ! Enjoy 81439087_523116168416016_1083099724514328576_n by dusty miller, on Flickr Dusty

Saw that this morning. What a piece of sh*t that tank was. Built out of scrap by the look of it and even the rear mount didn't line up.

Why would he even buy it? The forums are full of advice to not do that...
This video has been doing the rounds on Fb for a while now but you dont need to watch it and he didnt need to buy one or cut it open to know its a bad idea. I dont get it, its like he wasted his money on purpose to make the video... ahh hold on i do get it now, its the whole building up as an 'influencer' thing right?

Lots of people arent on forums, and the question about Indian tanks seems to still get asked a lot. We here all know not to buy them, and the video just enforces that. The more evidence the better in my book😉

So its an Fb only thing I guess then Dusty... Ive heard that for some people Fb 'is' the internet and theyve no idea what delights lurk beyond it. Thats a huge shame really, those people miss out on all the good info held on forums and websites. I know Fb is 'easy' and you dont need to search for stuff as you just ask questions and people answer, but really its missing the best of the info out there. Why limit yourself?!

Might ba an age thing maybe. Your kids may have Facebook or social media, and that may be a parents only interaction with the internet ? How many times do we see new people joining, having never known of this site before ! A guy asked about Indian made tanks, and their quality, on a Facebook page this morning, and that video was posted to warn him off them, so there are people that dont know any different. I've been on loads of different forums over the years, but this one is by far the busiest and friendliest. You just gotta hope people find it before parting with their cash !

Dusty👍 Its not an age thing at all. Its a dickhead thing. I'm computer illiterate but Google is the 1st thing I came across. The putor is a TOOL. Its a shame that so many tools don't realise that it is a tool. And you are right Dusty.. this place is by far the friendliest.. full of folk I would be happy to share a pint with any day of the week!!

From what I can tell Fb is the 'lazy' thing. No need to go looking for info, just ask and the same 5 people who always answer the questions will respond, quite often with incorrect info... Like others I put a lot of effort into adding info and trying to help people on the forums and my websites with information and photos that remain on those sites for all to find and view if you search and I pay for my own sites so people can read and use that info as they see fit. I call that giving back to the community that helps me as well. Fb is all about the asking today, no searching and often round and round the same questions go, but its the misinformation that is worrying. This a classic sums it up:

I'm sure it's not a problem - I lifted it from a Facebook page, and as said, it's been doing the rounds anyway. The more people that see it the better Dusty
