Friday Night Rants?

[mossy1200]

as a group we had 15 bikes parked over five spaces at a busy gas station while we had a break and at a pie or two, we still got abused by a dickhead in a fancy car that couldn't find a park.

another time stopped at a gas station in dunners again having a break and a pie or two and one of the guys left his bike a the pump, the place was not busy and had three lines of pumps and an older gent got abusive because he couldn't get to that particular pump. was absolutely no reason not to sue one of the other ones . there is no law saying more than one bike per park.

Got abused for parking in a drainage vehicle park. I was in my work vehicle working on the underground sewer pump station but that irrelevant.

Bloody Mainfreight....Engine on a stand, wrapped. drove the 80 odd km in to mainfreight to send it North as I've done many times before - and I'm told
"we don't accept anything not on a pallet now - and we no longer supply pallets or strapping"

If the customer didn't have a mainfreight a/c I'd have told them where they could put their freight company. But i'll make the trek back with it all on a pallet just to get shot of it.

But that's it, I won't be back.

you wana pellet grumpy?

DHL sux balls. They declare to customs you owe fees and then pay it for you and charge you $15.00 plus 2% to pay them with credit card. Never have the option to pay your own customs fees. Happens every time. Going to only purchase international if the seller uses other freight companies.

That sucks.
My tax agent sucks. I got a letter from IRD on Wednesday saying I owe $599.61 to be paid by 7th April. I thought WTF is this and why so late telling me. I ring IRD and am told a letter was sent to my tax agent last june, and he gave me all the details. When I asked if its common for agents to not pass information on, he said it's not uncommon. I have changed everything back to me with IRD, all correspondence will come directly to me in future.
I also have to ring my tax agent and let them know their services are no longer required. If I don't they can over ride what IRD has done and become my agent again. How the fuck can they have so much power ? CUNTS

It can be a battle breaking free from some tax agents. And yes it's been known for some to hijack tax accounts back again, but I think IRD have tightened up on that a bit.

Avoid the tax parasites like mytax.co.nz. There's absolutely zero customer support, they're just there to do what you could easily do yourself. If you need tax advice and assistance talk to a local accountant. They can provide the support that the sharks don't.

SBW is attacking the root cause of difference between the big three religions - Islam and Christian compared to Judaism with regards to usury!

IMHO he is putting his money where his mouth is - unfortunately the sheeple don't understand him! :corn: Interesting little side show actually!

Probably for reasons extending well beyond anything to do with religious dogma. And for those that don't: because the respective adherents of those religions behave other than their religions suggest they should.


None? https://www.radioislam.org/thetruth/04usury.htm

Sweet fuck all, as the article actually suggests. There's more similarities between those religions than differences. Which is hardly surprising, they originate from pretty much the same place.

And all of them frown on what most equate to interest on loans.

[pritch]

I very much doubt that a clause in his contract covers that.

Apparently there is just such a clause in his contract. He doesn't do promotional work for the sponsoring insurance companies either, but he will fulfil his obligations with non-financial indiustry sponsors.

The Rugby Union has made exceptions on religious grounds previously, f'rinstance Michael Jones. A player would need to be confident of his selection though, the selectors might decide he's just too much trouble.

All the contracts since about 2001.
Michael jones never made himself available to play on sundays thats a little different
SBW plays for the AIG All blacks
In the Investec cup though.
Maybe he should boycott Wespac stadium, FMG Stadium Waikato.
He previously pllayed for the chiefs sponsored by BNZ
http://ithestylist.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/sonny-bill-williams-640x278.jpg
before that the Crusaders sponsored by BNZ
http://img.skysports.com/11/03/800x600/Sonny-Bill-Williams-for-Crusaders-at-Twickenh_2578745.jpg
Toulon sponsored by AGV Finance. etc etc

[Ocean1]

and these "reasons" are?

Respectively, because the spectrum of rich to poor is more dictated by behavioral differences far more ingrained and endemic than mere ideological or religious differences.

And because Shakespeare's British popular culture was as besotted with antisemitism as much of the western world borrowing class is today. Probably for much the same reason.

[Woodman]

I like SBW, he's a great player and a gifted athlete, but he is religious therefore a hypocrite like all religious people are. Why does this surprise anyone?

Michael Jones was an exception for religous reasons, as is SBW, and to that extent it's the same. I've no idea when SBW converted to Islam but his latest contract has the "conscientious objector" clause.

BNZ shouldn't be unhappy, they got a bloody site more publicity out of this storm in a tea cup than they would have otherwise.

As long as the ABs beat the Lions who cares?

He won't want to hurt his rugby career in total, the odd small demand for the lesser Blues franchise is only heightened because of the media coverage, which he seems to thrive when it suits.

Michael Jones only penalised himself ,SBW wants to have his cake and eat it too.
Also Michael Jones was in the amateur era.
SBW converted to Islam many years prior to his intial move to Rugby.
SBW also never told the rugby union of his stance prior to taping over the logo.
I agree though the BNZ should be happy. free publicity
SBW is a sideshow NZ rugby could do without.
We have more than enough midfeild talent without him.

Somewhat racist rant ahead.

Hmmm is it still racist if it is just a factual observation?


Nice day in CHCH today - early 20's after yesterdays downpour.

Quiet spin to the Akaroa foothills - busy as predicted.

Coming down the hill were 20- 30 private school type urban 4WD's - you know fancy RAV 4 things and the likes. All new with a weird logo on the door.

All driven by ....... Asians.

Appears to be some organised self drive here is a nice car follow me type of tour. Fair enough, nice idea.

Shame about the driving ....

max speed on the open road 80 .... corners 50-60.

Yes - imagine the traffic behind this on a holiday weekend.

Some very dangerous passing.

Also - farting along really slow slightly tucked to the left waving your right hand to pass is not really safe driving in NZ. God knows if they had been told to do this but unless the road is wide enough and there is enough room it does not constitute safe passing.

Ah - how about just increasing ones speed?


Rant over. No one died (not for lack of trying).

Took a trip ChCh to Rakaia on (Easter) Friday.
Road was busy and it was raining so expected a leisurely drive.
Rolleston was the cluster fuck I expected so no stress there.
At the passing lane prior to the rail overbridge everything came to a standstill.
'Strange' me thinks. 'Perhaps an accident or a tractor on the move?'
But no. If would seem that a corner or two exceeding 10 degrees deviation requires a hitherto unseen level of caution and the tail back was the result.
Anyhoo, figured one or two twats, no problem, normal service to resume presently.
However some time later, post cup of tea and dog walk, on the return journey if anything the problem had gotten worse.
Quite stunningly unbelievable bullshit really.

Since we let whimps set safer 90kph open road speed limits, we've inadvertantly let the fucking inmates run the asylum. IE: now that you can go slower than 100kph on open roads, if you don't feel safe at 90.IT'S OK.
You don't have to maintain an impossibly unrealistic open road speed limit, or simply move over and let those who can or arn't afraid to do it, Do It!
So, now we;ve got totally incompetent car steerers piloting 2 ton vehicles at just 70 KPH giving the bird confidently to those of us who'd happily travel at the open road limit, if only there werent so many fucking losers out there holding up huge lines of traffic on otherwise brilliantly driveable roads.

[russd7]

piss me off when some asshole who just because he is a linehaul trucker believes it is ok to use pics from a very recent accident in which a young guy died and is not even yet buried to grandstand on fucking Face Book, the said post indicates that this young guy was in the wrong and maybe he was or maybe he wasn't but those facts have not been established yet. but what really pisses me off is the fucken insensitivity of it when the family and friends haven't even had time to deal with losing a son or brother or grandkid or cousin or good friend and when that was pointed out to the said dickhead he promptly told me that because he was a linehaul trucker that he was the best qualified to comment on an accident he knew absolutely nothing about and then promptly blocked me from messaging him about it.

i don't actually have a problem with the message he was trying to portray but this dick was just grandstanding by using pics from this particular accident so soon after the fact.

as far as NZ goes, why do people think the death toll will lower WHEN the population is growing ie the number of cars on the road is increasing... simple math the tolls not going to fucking lower... more cars more deaths...

Well since I was ranting as per the thread title... I didn't make note of the fact that as I travelled said road, not having been that way for a year or so and given the volume of traffic it really is sub par.

Also my firm belief is that in heavy traffic maintaining an average speed is more critical to traffic flow than driving 'at the maximum' allowed.
Think back, Friday across the country was shit weather so driving a little slower and with more caution is a good thing.

The problem occurs with 'freight training' due to vehicles speeding up and slowing down. The ripples with travel back as following distances get adjusted (and magnify in their intensity) causes the jam.

And actually, the 'I want to drive 100kph everywhere brigade' create as much mayhem as the 'OMG, a corner!' crew.

Bring on the self driving cars.

[Swoop]

also, to the whores RIDING the horses over the paedestrian crossing, that shit's a vehicle, get the fuck off the footpath.
Fuck off. Horses don't have a numberplate or rego AND they are 4WD. They are a "from of transport" and not a vehicle.
Shouldn't be on the road at all. Ride the thing off-road.

As for horsefloats. Ban them completely.



How do you explain the improvement seen anywhere restrictions are removed?

In fact why would you bother? The fact that there's an improvement is enough to justify the change.
Didn't the Northern Territory see an increase in accidents when they removed the "no speed limit outside of townships" rule?



Bring on the self driving cars.
Have you thought what speed limits will be imposed on those things?
With the current mentality from TPTB "speed is baaad, mkay?" we will only see self drive trundling along at 20kph... if your lucky.
Because... "risk", "worksafe", spastics wearing hi-viz, morons in parliament, etc.

The reports I saw suggested decreases in accidents.

Which is common enough most places where regulation is relaxed.

Not telling people how to do shit in mindless, interminable detail makes them more responsible. Whoda thought?

Somewhere had no WOF at all but huge pentalities or no insurance if the driver had an accident or was pulled over by the police and found to have a dangerous car. I can't remeber where it was but the cars turned out to be on the whole better good mechanical condition.

Shane i assure you I haven't set you up firstly I have 34 years experience I have rode lots of bike and secondly the guzzi isn't standad it café racer running flat side so power is low down it has a Daytona cam in it off the 1000cc Daytona and I assure I did take the corner at 100kms my nick name is sweep in ttag club I got that nick name for my ability to go round corners fast I also ride with ants who has a 1050 trumpie and the only difference between us is his bike has more horse power hope this clears up the miss under standing I never claim to do any thing I haven't done and often go to have a go day in chch in febuary

Darryl Mr Tapp... LMFAO... FFS take a second to reread what I have said, poor fucking Grogan must pe pissing him self silly here...

Shane my bike is not a v7 in fact never owned one think what you like bro I own and always have a 96 1100 sport I don't ride leaner bike as I said 30 plus years experience I think you should re read my post again and I don't wear a hi vis just for the record that's a bronz uylishis thing isn't it so I guess you have done all the ride safe course and are an advanced rider the same as me then ????????

Darryl Shane Tapp Mate I just cant do it any longer your nick names "sweep"

Shane so what do you ride again that does 3 times the speed of my 1100 sport I take it we talking top end speed that would have to make you bike capable of in acess of 700kms an hour I am real interested bro ?????
Darryl ok.... sorry man I give up you got me heres my bike the Brittin is on the bench burnt a bloody valve out fuck it... INCERT PIC OF A Y2K

Shane okay that looks about the model after mine 2000 or o1 so you know what I am talking about if I said the guzzi is running cf flat sides and tuned and it has been rechipped
Darryl no its a 04 the very last LeMans its the only one in the southern hemisphere... if your sport is carbed its a 95/96 mine was a 97inj
Josh Re-chipped?
Darryl Josh yeah Brent G gave him a chip from a willow log it fits in the 1100 sport as well as a daytona cam... cant beat re chipping a carbed bike
Josh Out of interest, how do you get a cam from a belt driven ohc 4 valve motor into a pushrod 2 valve motor? And how can you chip an ecu on a motor running carbs?

In Central Canty - between the Rakaia and the Waimak - the main drainage is the Selwyn and it's tributaries.
That ends up in Lake Ellesmere - and that one's fucked. The Selwyn downstream of Coalgate isn't swimmable any more.
Too much of Canty is light land which historically wasn't considered suitable for dairy. Only economic neccessity - and subsidies drying up - forced the dairy conversions, sheep were much kinder to the land.

The subsidies have been gone since the mid eighties.
the polution from humans is a bit larger than most people like to admit
For instance large restrictions were placed on the farms that feed the catchment of Lake Brunner at Moana
Thus restricted amounts of fertiliser and Nitrogen special effluent and grazing restrictions where imposed, now the data suggest it was the people of the town itself that were the major issue regarding the polution.
When will we hear the new catchcry DIRTY URBANITES maybe time to restrict them.

PS sheep on hillsides area major cause of errosion and sediment runoff.
they beltch as much methane as cows do when converted to eq stock units and diet.

Yeah... there's learner horses and learner horse riders and just like any learner they can fuck things up quicker than they can react to fix it. Good for you, slowing down a bit and being prepared. We had horses and they can do funny things when the rider acts worried and hops off, the other horse was probably wondering what the fuss was and turned to look at its mate. Or sometimes they'll turn their arse to the "danger" so they're ready to kick out, but a horse like that needs more practice NEAR the road before actually going ON it.
The horses we had tended to prefer vehicles to approach and go past at a constant speed that isn't too fast. Slowing down too much makes it wonder why you're stalking it, too fast and it thinks you're coming in for the kill...

P.S. don't ride through horse shit, the splashes are hard to wash off and it's as slippery as a greased slippery thing...

I'm a delicate little flower. I'm pretty sensitive to bright lights, I wear light sun glasses at night to stop glare. So I get pretty pissed at people who turn their full beams on just as they are right in front of me, like they can't wait half a second to tun them back on, they have to blind me because they are that desperate to get their high beams back on. Makes me want to turn around and tail gate them with my high beams on. 😡

Also, probably the same retards, who the fuck needs to drive around a fully lit town with high beams on? Trying to walk my dog and I have to stop and cover my eyes for 10 seconds while dingus drives past high beaming me at 6:30pm in a 50km/h zone. Might grab a powerful torch to blind them back.

yes they should turn off when the head lights are turned on... but no they dont need to be

[Luckylegs]

SAME... well not the delicate bit but fuck yes re the eyes... dont have high beam issues here BUT those arseholes that drive at night with there "day time" lights on... some might call them fog lights but they aint...

Fuck me ya dont need 4 head lights on when ya aiming at oncoming traffic now how many of you lot drive at night with them on... used to think it was a WOOOHOOO look at me I got extra light... but now I just think they are cocks and dont actually relise it...

Ah... rural waikato. The type of fog what kills french people. Yep i use em, and use the thingamywhatsit knob to adjust ths normail headlighf beam downwards. As much low light as i can get and im happy. Oooh, on really bad days i even put my led rear fog tail light on.

So there!

Yes, they're cocks...And on our straight flat canty roads I have high beam issues. You don't D cos you drive a high wheeled juggernaut where you sit a mile in the air...I drive an oldish, fairly low car and even dipped beam from most utes/suv's is too bloody high for comfort.

Having watched the WOF process, it looks like the dip regs merely require a certain angle of dip from horizontal. IMO it should be a measurement of where the top of the beam strikes the road at a certain distance in front. This should negate the effect of high placed lights....

And as for people towing at night or carrying a heavy load in the back......

[Moi]

yes they should turn off when the head lights are turned on... but no they dont need to be

So who makes up the rules? I'm guessing NZTA? If the lights are daytime running lights then at night they should be off! End of statement.

If you can adjust your headlight beams down, can you also adjust them up? In the olden days cars had fog lights that only came on with the side marker lights and never with headlights - thinking of the Mitsi Sigma range with built-in fog lights. Nowadays seems a little laissez faire just what and how you light the road ahead and, consequently, blind on-coming traffic.

+1 on our hilly and congested northern roads or when followed at night by some SUV/ute

All a bit laissez faire and let the car markers dictate what will happen rather than the "authorities" laying down the rules... IIRC, South Australia had words with Chrysler about the side lights and tail lights on a certain Valiant model, the VF and VG series... though Chrysler did win in the end.

Lol - yeh, i can adjust them up and down... if i start at 4 (from 0-6). I can only presume that the clever san's at fuji heavy industries no what there doing with the resulting beam set at 0 being friendly for other road users.

Interestingly, as an aside - i tried an experiment the other night in the fog and drove with just the fog lights and just before i got smacked around the head by my wife all i could think of was a slot car set i had as a kid. You could turn of the lights and watch the cars going around with just the glow in the dark lines printed on the track.

such fun...

Your previous post is the first mention I've seen of someone using that little wheel appropriately. I have spoken to a person with a lifetimes work in the motor trade who had no idea what it was for.

When I was working we had two women drive from Palmerston North to New Plymouth at night, complaining all the way about the crap headlights. Of course it never occured to them to get the manual out of the glovebox and see if there might be a reason. They waited until Monday to complain to me. Somebody else short of a clue had set the lights down as far as they'd go.

Basically I thought it was there for if there was a heavy load like a big toolbox in the boot which would tend to make your headlights point at the sky, but using it for fog would work too.

Ok, fog lights as a general are YELLOW not a white light... not that common these days.. in stead cars are fitted with "driving lights" thats day runners found in the lower bumper, a bright thin beam that is there to be seen from afar in the day... hence THEY are cunts at night.. on there own not so bad but you cant drive at night with just them... add the head lights and its a fucking lot of light burning ya eye balls out (well mine some people it may not bother.

Used to pass a silly cow in a horrid people mover thing (already forming a low opinion of her) who would have the headlights, high beams and fog lights under the bumper on while on the way to drop the kids off. Couldn't see a bloody thing driving towards it, and even if I'd bothered to clean the windscreen it wouldn't have helped, after I bothered to hook up the driving lights on the old terrano and fired them up with the high beams few times she seemed to get the message.

Coffee. I like a good coffee. I generally buy one most mornings after parking up and going in to work. Nice and relaxed, have a quick chat with the bird who makes them then I am on my way. I may even converse with other people if there are any waiting.

Petrol. I need to get petrol quite often. I want to fill up, pay and fuck off. That is all I need from a petrol station.

So why the fuck do petrol stations now serve fucking coffee so I have to stand and wait to pay for my petrol behind some fucking bint in her pyjamas who is going to drive off in her fucking slippers with her eight children drinking her slim (too fucking late) flat white instead of thinking about her driving.

Tell me about it - soft sprung late model Nissan 4X4 with a sack of spuds in the back + their modern sharp upper cut-off headlights = total piss-off when you're heading towards them:angry:

And I agree with that comment by somebody about motorbikes getting along on full-beam in a dull day - makes it hard to spot the two or three bikes behind them who are using dip.

OK - got to tell my light story now, D.

When first married we shifted to 1st home in Diamond Harbour. Nice place, fun drive but not every workday or at night...We had a mighty Suzuki Fronte - 500cc car...Lights just as you would expect, barely adequate.
So I asked around my rally mates, and came up with a pair of Cibie 100W Super Oscars. Some brackets and heavy duty wiring plus suitable switch and we had a set of lights which would show a cow at one end of the Wheatsheaf straight from the other end...
Looked absolutely stupid, small car, huge lights. Had to arrange it so main beams went off when they came on - and couldn't run them for long cos the charging system couldn't keep up.

One night around the head of the harbour, a car wouldn't dip for me so they got the full blast. Turned out to be a cop...Once he'd pulled me up we had a little discussion after which he apologised for not dipping. He'd pursued cos he couldn't believe the setup was legal...

Billy T is dead D, time to let him go........

[Grumph]

Where to start...Well, the SDC seems the right place. Couple of years back they looked at the drainage here and increased the size of the drain to the local stream at the downhill end of the village...And closed off a couple of ditches higher up which were designed to divert water away from the village.
Major bloody mistake. the new drain can't handle it and this time round there's going to be several evacuations instead of the single one last time.
We're hopefully just above water level - but last time it didn't come within 5 meters of the house, it's 2 meters away now.
Both the roads we front to are bank to bank - our main entrance is about a foot deep. The front of our property which famously - and expensively for SDC - flooded before, is deeper and more extensively flooded than ever. The neighbours arrived home late afternoon and are now gone - water over their septic tank and under the house. EQC will get a shitload of claims just from this village.
And we hear there's a possibilty of the Selwyn breaking it's banks, oh joy...

Hope Dangerous and family are OK, he's lower on the flood plain and close to the Selwyn...

We'll see what daylight brings.

Tis all good mate i still laugh about you often.:woohoo: Hear what your sayin though and yep Billy T was a fucking legend. "lands for bags of course".

[Grumph]

Still haven't heard about Dangerous - and the Selwyn is in full flood height at the Bealey bridge a bit upstream of him...

just talked to a shellshocked neighbour - they came home to water coming up through the floor and by the time they left it was a foot deep...

We're Ok - some water in the workshop but nothing to worry about. But of course we now have a pretty big lake trapped on the property as there's no way for it to leave...And it extends under the neighbour's house too. Council to pump out as per court ruling but they won't do it till the river drops. Be interesting to see what the neighbour's insurance co says about that.

[ellipsis]

Not good Greg. I just went up the valley to see what we have to come out our way. Thank fuck the council were onto opening the lake on time. I'd hate to think how deep the water would be out here by now. It is building up now though. Untile earlier this am we were watching it flow by quite well, but I think the flow has stopped. It's just on the rise now. High tide about now doesn't help either. We are not as bad as some of you out there and south of us. I don't think SDC had their shit together, yet again, with Ellesmere though. Wankers. It's a foot deep on the highway in the village, just below the critical mark for the businesses down that way. Fingers crossed. Rapids forming on the road sandwiched between the river and creek. That won't be going anywhere quick when it gets down this far. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was freaked by the lack of moisture and the water table being so low.

Our toy lake which is about two and half meters square has just joined another new lake which very shortly may just merge with Forsyth which means my pond will be Lake Forsyth/Wairewa for a bit. Lake views at last.

[Grumph]

Yeah, I was wondering about the lake. Absolute shitload of water going down to it. Hope your high tide crest isn't too bad. I missed ours which must have been about midnight but there's debris all over the yard so we had it sweep through.
On the bright side, values here must be up - we're now on SH1. everything going south is coming through here and over the gorge...

[dangerous]

will be Lake Forsyth/Wairewa for a bit. Lake views at last.oppd look out the horries will want ya land if that happens, no fish for you.

Yeah no real issues here we just end up on an island ridgens rd, coaltrack rd greendale rd and bridge rd all 20m across with water... Ive been up in the alps all weekend so missed it anyways.

Ya gota remember we live on a raft of rivers man has fucked them right up but when mother nature gets a shit on she reminds us how it was before we fucked the land... so I dont blame SDC for anything, I blame us.. EG: ridgins rd and several others including Bealy (bealy has a bridge now) has been bone dry for longer than I have been here... but remember it is called Hawkins river... as is the Waireka and selwyn rivers.

As for you ... honky built LR in a darft place aye...

[Grumph]

Before you moved out there D, and we then went into a different weather/water usage pattern, the middle branch was running most of every winter.
The eastern tributary has only had water in it twice since we moved here. The main, western, Selwyn branch also ran wet under the Bealey bridge for most of each winter - only drying for a couple of months in summers.
The change has been quite marked in the last 5 or 6 years - as has the increase in dairying...

But as a neighbour of ours is fond of saying - If you live on a flood plain, expect floods....

[Grumph]

well that be canterbury wouldnt it...
whats the river the other side of the roundabout from you... how did that handle the rain?
Oddly the Horarata has been flowing well since xmas it enters the selwyn just down stream from us.

It ran VERY high - and the drain into it backed up and flooded about 1km up Hawkins road. Aggravated by the drainage coming down Hororata rd past the domain only having one outlet across to the river. That overflowed and came right down Hororata Rd to the roundabout...
Plus the usual flooding in front of us on the Bealey which of course came into us and the house on the corner...They actually got it from 2 directions as the rush down Hororata rd came in their front gate. John boy tells me it all peaked at about 9pm - we also obviously got the flush from Hororata rd as there's debris all over our yard off hawkins rd.
Pumping has commenced - and is actually making good progress as the groundwater levels seem low. It's all just surface water. Our lake view is disappearing slowly.

What a fuckin cop out, I love to be forced stay home for six months so I could finish off a few bikes that need attention, sleep in & have the dinner ready when the Mrs gets home. it takes ages for that red mark from the wet bus ticket to go away though

Seriously, fuckwits who can't even be arsed to clean the filters on the heat pump the house owner has paid to have installed, or open a bloody window to let some fresh air in, but somehow it's the landlord's fault that there's mould growing in their house while they dry their washing and have their lpg heater going in the living room.

Oh you noticed? :laugh:

Interesting fact: The tenancy tribunal rules are intentionally designed to favour tenants over landlords, and yet the tribunal finds 90% of disputes in favour of the landlord. A majority of those findings fail to reimburse the landlord for damages, and of those that do a majority are never paid.

So where are some of those 90% horror stories in the press?

Well aware that it's all in favour of the tenant.

A landlord has to give a tenant 3 months to trash the place before they leave, but a tenant can give 14 days notice that they're leaving, and be a complete arse with trying to show the property. The last tenant who moved out on us, who was a friend, informed us a few days before we went overseas for a couple of weeks that they were moving out. 6 weeks lost rent, still a mortgage to pay, thanks very much.

It's a shit game to play, just hope it's worth it when I'm retired and they're paid for. Still better than investing in a finance company, regardless of what meads thinks of them.

When I was a kid my Dad had a house that had to be cleaned out with a wheelbarrow, it was like one of those TV shows.

Some left a mess, dismantled cars, outstanding debts.....but I think on the whole most were ok, you only remember the

exceptions. I went overseas for a couple of years in the 00's and the tenant looked after the house and gardens better then

we did.

My hobby stock market portfolio of blue chip NZ companies ....including Fletchers :facepalm: is now 20% higher in a year.

Shame I don't have a lot of faith in smoke and mirrors....

Maybe if the building industry moved out of the 1970's it might have been better.

[Ocean1]

I sometimes wonder what's the point. The same rules apply in retirement that do through the rest of your life: don't bother trying to earn more than anyone else 'cause they'll only take it off you.

The more you earn from those retirement investments the less pension you're going to be getting. And when you rich pricks get sick then you'd better sell your ill-gotten gains to pay your hospital bill, because the taxpayer only pays for those that aren't as "privileged". And once the rental's gone don't bother trying to supplement your tiny pension by getting a boarder in or trying to set up some sort of B'nB because they'll just reduce your pension accordingly.

And you'd better hope Jacinda's lot remain on the sidelines, or sooner or later that pension is going to be asset tested. And I get the feeling that all the echo chamber driven spin about "inequality" is about to come home to roost in spades: unless you're wealthy enough to require nothing from the state at all while still paying the massive taxes you rich pricks deserve then you're going to rapidly become poor enough to finally deserve some relief.

If they introduce capital gains tax, they better plan on all the landlord property investors leaving the market, if only in protest.
They may find they have to come up with a few more houses than they budgeted for.

It wont have that effect on me, I own three property's and a friend owns eight, I doubt he will opt out either. Even if the decision is made to opt out the market because of Capital Gains Tax, the property's will probably be sold to another investor. First home buyers will still find it hard to front up the money unless a house is in a more undesirable neighbourhood, and even then it can prove difficult for a first time home buyer to purchase.

If the situation is that you own just the one rental property, then yes, a Capital Gains Tax should make the smarter property owner sell.

Time will tell.

No you don't, you have to give 21 days minimum. Anything less than that is a trip to the Tenancy Tribunal. The Landlord can also move you out in 42 days if they say they are moving family in. They don't have to prove they moved family in, they just have to say they did.

That 3 months notice we give is used by me to fix any issues that I know about so that the next people don't have to live with them. In the house we're renting now, we've spent $1300 fixing the mains power feed from the street to the house and the blocked sewer line. We've replaced rotten net curtains as well and fixed the chimney and firebox. We also paid $5k to have the roof renailed because we could see the problem getting worse. We found a 20 litre bucket in the roof space when we investigated the leak in the master bedroom. It was put there by the previous tenant. The leak was because it had filled up. We've not been paid back by the landlady, despite three trips to the Tenancy Tribunal. She let the agreement expire, assuming that we would have to move out and organised new tenants WITHOUT TELLING US. She lost that one.

The landlady at the previous property was worse and despite multiple trips to the Tenancy Tribunal still hasn't paid back our bond 2 years later. She used to turn up unannounced for random inspections. When she was selling the property we had weekly Open Homes and we made sure the place was spotless and we left the property while the Open Home was underway. When the place sold, she didn't tell us and we found out from the Real Estate agent at a football game 2 weeks before the next crowd was moving in. I've yet to meet a landlord with any moral fibre or one who will follow through on any promise. If I was a landlord, I'd go broke rapidly because I'd want the place to be top notch all the time.

Been a long time since I actually read the standard document, but I'm sure I recall provision for withholding rent by way of redressing tenant's unanswered claims for expenses relating to maintenance items the owner is responsible for.

Assume the worst: there's no such provision. Do it anyway. Give her written notice, copy the tribunal and proceed.

Two wrongs may not make a right, but they do make you even.

Despite all the arguments we've heard from Landlords saying that the Tenancy Tribunal is biased in the Tenant's favour, the Tenancy Tribunal has no provision in law to uphold a finding in favour of the tenant. We are owed $1300 by Oxygen Property from a rental in 2011 where they got people in to service the DVS in between us moving out and Oxygen doing their inspection. The DVS service man left a MASSIVE mess in the bathroom and every room with an outlet including a bath full of black water. Apparently this is a standard practice by Oxygen to avoid paying bond back. The photos we took and had witnessed by a friend who is a JP showed a house left spotless. Oxygen were a bit flummoxed but have yet to pay us. MBIE claim that they have no recourse other than to ask nicely. The reason we moved out of that property was because Oxygen took us to court WITHOUT informing us that they'd done so over unpaid rent, which we duly proved we'd paid via a phone call to the court in session. We emailed Bank Statements which added up to more than the amount Oxygen were claiming. We decided that it wasn't worth hanging about.

If we did what you said, we'd be homeless and involved in a prolonged "request" process for recompense that would be ultimately futile. For every rental property there are dozens of people waiting to rent. Illegally removing a tenant and replacing them for bogus reasons and then denying Bond repayment is standard practice because ultimately the Landlord knows that MBIE is too toothless to do anything about it.

The tenancy tribunal is definitely biased towards tenants, their founding documents require it. I'm OK with that, up to about the price of the bond, which, as you say is the effective extent of their remit.

Beyond that both parties have recourse to civil law. And yes I know landlords are more likely to be able to afford that, hence the above advice.

Which stands, btw. If you hadn't moved out you would have been warm and dry and with a decided fiscal upper hand, ethically if not legally. And I've never yet seen the polise evict a tenant for any reason whatsoever.

Oxygen do sound like arseholes. Or at least culpably negligent. Same thing. As a general rule I like to do my bit to make sure arseholes from any walk of life whatsoever lose. Which isn't to say I'm often completely successful, but I have definitely cost a few arseholes some sleepless nights, which, while providing nothing by way of rehabilitation is nonetheless beneficial to all parties involved.

They can find in favour of the tenant. They have no legal power to enforce that finding. Court is not an option for any renter I know. Not one. You have to suck it up and the Landlord/Property Agent has the capability to make a rental property the exact opposite of a home and there's not a thing you can do about it.

They don't call the Police to evict you. They just get a court order and use movers to move your stuff out while you're at work.

Court is pointless for anybody in the process, tenants and landlords will smile nicely and accept the tenancy tribunal finding, but actually getting any money is pretty much hopeless. Even with a court order your only real enforcement option is to take property to the value of what's owed, assuming you can find the other party and prove that the property belongs to them before it's seized, and even then it's up to you to sell it to get your money.

Short answer is that the only real option is to bend over and get screwed, write off the money and carry on with your life.
