Yea these were machine dug with about the same dimensions.

Needless to say I was very wrong about the weight.

I've hauled two loaders on the same trailer with a weight of about 25k pounds on top of the trailer weight without the truck even breaking a sweat. I would imagine I had about 40k pounds maybe more on the trailer with just those 50 trees

So just how does the points against you system work? I just got 2 against me for the first time, and was wondering how many buttons I can push before I'm in big trouble.

Oh, I was actually just trying to be funny, I haven't gotten any red marks yet(which is surpising really). I have had people say they have put me on ignore to were they couldn't see my posts anymore(rather they did or didn't I have no way to verify). Other then that, the only thing I can think of, is that if you get enough to where you have red marks by your name instead of green, it "tells" people not to really take your posts seriously. That would actually be the only thing that I would guess, unless you get so many that the moderators lock out your username and ISP as well(little conspiracy theory for you).
