I know phpBB is an old format... But i do not think we should roleplay we are still in 2005

Funnily enough i did not know BPT was a thing until recently, was not active in english communities back then i suppose.

And now that I have given the crown a vacation, I shall be taking it back now. Thanks for keeping it warm for me.

[Neutral Smith]

I don't need a crown to know I'm the winner.

Gold medal is enough

[Bellhead]

No. Mine. I called Dibs.

Everyone knows about the international Dibs protocol.

I told myself I wouldn't take the crown back until I watched that where I could listen to it while I did.

I regret that decision.

I regret it a lot.

Somebody was doing some serious psychedelics when they came up with that.

But hey. I've never seen anything like it, so points for originality, I guess...

[Neutral Smith]

It's just a different version of a familiar song.

For a real 'WTF did they have' I could recommend https://www.youtube.com/c/IgorrrOfficial/videos

(I think I have posted a few before, so not going to do that again)

Is also a good WTF when you realize she sings both voices.

If you do not mind me taking first place for a moment.

Also my car battery decided it will sometimes discharge while everything is off for the lulz. Fun times!

[Bellhead]

I once again decided to watch the vid before retaking my rightful place. She has a gorgeous voice.. Then death metal. I really liked how it sounded up to then, too... For some reason, rock and light rock with low-pitched female lead vocalists seems to resonate with me. And she's quite skilled, too.

Now Technic, as a mechanic, I can say that either your battery is shot and simply won't hold a charge, or you have a parasitic draw somewhere. Check your lighter plugs (power sockets) for stuff that gets left plugged in, and check door/trunk/visor/glovebox light switches. I've seen cases where a battery will go dead because it got drained by a trunk light that wouldn't shut off. I could walk you through the process to check, if you want.

Then again, you could always just disconnect the battery before you go to bed at night. They make disconnects for that.

And now, for my most important announcement:
WINNING.

shop said they did a full suite of test and there is no parasitic discharge anywhere. Was planning to test myself because this happens so often i got a battery started myself. It is also random, sometimes 3 months not issue then battery dead 2 days in a row. This is also the second battery....

Had not though about disconnecting the battery but wouldn't that cause the computer to reset?

[Bellhead]

It would, yes, but only the readiness monitors and self learn data. And trip meters. But if it lasts that long then fails suddenly, I'm reasonably certain you have an intermittent parasitic drain somewhere.

Had an instructor back at school who had that issue with an old Camaro. Battery went dead while they were at work, but only sometimes, and only when they parked facing downhill. Faulty trunk light switch. Might be something stupid like that.

Or a computer glitch. Could be that too. If the computer doesn't shut off right, that would do it.

[Technic[Bot]]

need to monitor it then

[Neutral Smith]

Lost interest in being here, still winning.

[Foxx Trotter]

Not anymore.

[Bellhead]

Ah hello, sir! Glad to have you back!
