..my gut feeling is like Spacemules, don't think anybody here actually went out of their way to contact somebody, even if they disagreed with your actions kid. I figure the majority of people that read this forum, never post, never say boo. All it would take is one person somewhere to make a phone call, the authorities could then read the thread and print out the info. Kid your address was even on there for a little while... but I figure from reading the thread they could piece together enough info to find you. How many people you figure have 30,000 acre spreads in theat area, also happen to have a student your age etc etc. Wouldn't take a Hollywood police detective too long to track you down.

yes, like some others, big of you to admit to this and post kid. I respect that even though ya did wrong.

I am not exactly jail bound, but i am going to get alot more than a spanking. Right now fines and a summer of planting trees in Burns looks like the punishment. As for how they got the info, i think that someone gave him the info.


Wow. How could they prove it?
 
You should change your user name to 056man.

Coming on here and admitting being wrong was not a kid's act, but that of a man...

That being said, posting your address in the original thread probably wasn't that great of an idea.
 
Like someone else said, there are probably ALOT of people who read this site but never post.. And i bet theres a good chance theres a few tree hugger green peace types lurking here; just waiting for someone to make a post like you did kid! All the rest of the posts here about cutting down trees probably burn them up, but they are all legal cuttings by professional and law abiding homeowners.. You probably wouldnt have ever had a problem if you didnt post on this open forum.. If the tree's where dead, i dont see a big deal..

My mom works for the FS in Montana, and I had considered asking her what would happen to someone that did what 056 had done. I never got around to it, plus she might have axed 20 questions. No one likes a rat, so I didn't bother asking. She used to issue permits too, but I don't know if she issued firewood permits. I've got to agree with the others here. Takes some stones to come out and admit you were wrong. Good on ya mate!
 
056Kid, ya done good. You've already proved that you are more of a man than the "don't talk" crowd will ever be. You can't go through your life constantly crying "prove it", folks go to jail everyday without ever providing a confession. The system goes easier on you too. Just think, if they had to spend countless manhours talking to everyone, building a case and all, do you think you would have gotten off so easily? No, they'd have went for the max sentence, whatever that is.
I think you've learned a good lesson here, hopefully two. you're one ahead of a lot of other "men". Being responsible is part of growing up. You can walk with your chest out, and head high. You passed a test most fail, and in cowardace, encourage others to fail as well. You fu(ked up, and you took responsibility for it, and are making it right.

Am I the only one that thinks this whole thread and the previous one was BS?


ben, the same thing has been lurking in the back of my mind too... i dont see how the forest service would have already 'sentenced' him with fines and planting trees on government property.. Sounds a bit fishy to me too.. But you never know.... could very well be true..

I suppose he could get a sentance like that, but at his age, I doubt they would do anythjing besides a suspended sentance at the worst. Especially when you consider the so called crime in question.
Even if they did the wheels of just turn much slower than the time frame we are looking at here. It often takes months from the time of apprehention to when charges are pressed. When i was younger I had a lady claim I shot at her truck while hunting. This happened in september. I wasnt questioned by the police till late November.
Im thinking pro troll.
 
I called Troll way back. This fessing up and sudden attitude change is just too cute. It is fun, but I think we being had. There is also too much difference in language from time to time.
 
It's not impossible that this is a trolling action, but he could have agreed to their terms and avoided prosecution, just awaiting the seal of approval of the DA (or whoever's overseeing such).
