We had a thread last year about things to make ROT better for everyone and I thought it was worth bringing over here.  While nobody likes rules - everyone appreciates common courtesy.  Following these suggestions will make ROT more enjoyable for all. 

 

  

  • Don't spray people with water guns or get them wet without permission.
  • Using the potty in somebody's RV cost them money.  RV service at ROT is expensive and porta-potties are handy to all areas.  Not to sound rude, but unless its offered, don't ask and put your host in the uncomfortable position of saying no.
  • Pools are expensive to have filled and almost impossible to keep clean.  Some people have pools as an open invitation for all to join in.  Others have theirs for a private oasis to share with certain people.  Unless a sign invites you, ask before you hop in.
  • Don't assume the cooler contains free beer just because it isn't chained shut.  So frustrating to go for a cold one and there aren't any!!
  • Treat camp boundaries like invisible fences - if you have to cut across, do so on the "property lines" - no one likes people trampling through their "yard" whether they are in a free campsite or paid RV space. 
  • Never, ever, ever go in an RV or tent without the owners permission.  That is not cool and could get you seriously injured.  Abodes on site are private property and its not okay to check them out for any reason.
  • When you are rewarded with a peek, you can look, but you can't touch.  And you probably cannot hang beads on it either.
  • "At ROT all women of all ages and all sizes and all appearances are appreciated for whatever assets they offer and are treated with respect"...its The Rule, please follow it!
  • if you are bringing an RV with a slideout, make sure that the slideout doesn't go over your boundery line...if it goes out of your space, it's in someone else's!
  • Treat everyone else and their property as you would want everyone to treat your bike.
  • Respect a woman's right to say "no" when offered beads.

 

Any other suggestions to add?

I can tell you these suggestion seem very reasonable.

Respect people and property.

 It's sad that these even have to be mentioned since it is "supposed" to be an adult only rally. Bottom line is respect for others and their property.

Yet another great ad on to the site, now if everyone was forced into reading it. LOL

Someone would maybe come up with the idea that ROT should print up Spirit's list and send it out with each ticket,but that would mean more expence for them (therefor us!). It's a cryng shame that 'adults' have to even be reminded to act like adults. That said,    Boobs!  Beads!  Booze!  PARTY!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah... it's pretty much the "Nacho" rule...

 

If it's nacho cheese.... don't eat it

If it's nacho toilet...   don't pee in it

If it's nacho pool...     don't pee in it

If it's nacho beer...    TOP bought it somewhere and it's really hot & nasty (still.... don't drink it)

If it's nacho bike...     don't ride it

If it's nacho girl...      don't ride it...er  I mean ... don't touch it.

If it's nacho idea of some good rules... then you musta been brought up on the "mushroom theory"

    You've been kept in the dark and fed Bullsh!t

I'm hurt man that beer was COLD.  I had it on ice for a week waiting on someone to drink it.  Who would have thought that a beer name Buffalo Butt would taste bad?!!!

And what was the name of that beer you brought me at Wet Nipple last year, Old Mold or something like that?

One time I had to pee so bad on the job so I open one of those Porto-Potty and someone crapped on the seat and it was no accident...that was it for me....ewwwwww 

And Im saying no to mine too!...ewwwww LOL

Roughing it is the best. When you start to upgrade little things like a shower tee-pee, porto-potty, twin mattress and a coolmist fan. You miss out on the whole camping thing. Like complaining about the ground being hard, whinning that the potty is to far away, bitching line is to long at the rubber ducky or curseing that it is to hot to sleep.

Well not me. I like the real camping experiance. Of course this year I am bringing a portable A/C for my tent.  LOL

I agree - nobody likes too many "rules" but there is a line to be drawn when some people have "fun" by making other people miserable, for crying out loud, and I don't think having (and enforcing) the above rules would cost the ROT owners any money.  There are tens of thousands of ROT attendees that never see this forum.  Somebody at the management level should be a little proactive...

Don't be hurt Top... I was actually thinkin of a beer that one of my buddies brought me... it was called "Chile Beer" had a jalapeno pepper in it... you could put it in the ice chest.... let the liquid get chilled and that stuff would still tear your head off from the heat...

Now as for the Buffalo Butt ... that was um...  nasty

Ugly Pug was also... nasty

We've had: Fancy Lawnmower, White Elephant, Fat tire, Gorilla somethin'..... 

I on the other hand brought you a very nice brew to the NIPPLE...

 

It was called OLD CHUB  ( I just liked the name )  LOL

 I believe it was brewed inside of a rotting camel's a$$ or sumpthin to that effect....

 

LMAO!!!!

 

Not to worry my friend.... I'll see what I can come up with for this go 'round.. 

 

 

 

ROT Etiquette.... never forget to bring a nice brew to share when making new friends   Wink

Why yes there was some "Ugly Pug".  I thought it was named after the cute little dog, but apparently it was named ofter the face you make when you drink it.

WOW!!! Look at the brain on Ronnie Girl.  Good Looking and Smart.  Babybull is a lucky guy.
