Has NOTHING to do with Spyders!
But wouldn't this be a PERFECT Off-topic topic?? But you'll get those numbers up!:gaah:
Hey is that the wolf from pulp fiction?
Sometimes wish more people were like this. i.e. overcoming adversity! Too many quitters.

Some people in here need yoga or something. Pete, you are one of them.
Thanks to whoever moved this to the Off-topic thread, where it belongs.
Let's all play nice...:D
what I have yet to understand is this insistance in telling folks to post in a different forum. Well it is only the "off topic" ones. No one tell any poster to post in the F3. RS, RT etc. But do they not see that regardless of where you post all posts will appear in the general forum till they drop off the leader board...?? It goes back to opening choices be it by the poster or the title it is your choice and if they move it to the off topic it is still in the general forum...:dontknow: or am I wrong...??
There is no such thing as a "leader board", i assume you mean whats new, which is a search & shows new posts?
There is no "General Forum" either, off topic is the forum that its in.
This topic was originally posted in "General Spyder Discussion", it doesn't relate to spyders, hence why it was moved to off topic.
The point is that if it's in the wrong forum;
a. It makes searches for relevant topics that much more difficult
b. It makes it difficult for those who want to avoid 'Off-topic' threads to do so
c. Prevalent ambiguity in threads makes it difficult to understand sometimes what the OP is asking for or trying to say, particularly if it's in the 'wrong' forum
Honestly---I wasn't aware of the "Off Topic Forum" , & I certainly didn't think it would cause "World War 3". Good thing I didn't say anything offensive in the post, or the reaction may have included "Nuclear Armament" .

Is this another "test." :roflblack: :roflblack:
This is a test, only a test...
In the event of an actual emergency related to over reacting you might be informed of the safest actions to take. And no pets, animals, insects or smart people were injured in this test.
To clarify, this is a test and not related to the topics subject in any way at all.
Here's your test, choose a post. Remember all who choose the negative go on my ignore list
I just saw a Ham Radio topic in a Spyder specific forum, someone please message Dr Obvious and advise him so we can elevate this to Devcon 6.
Do you think that the ham radio guys are seeking our covert intel?
Licking lead battery posts is not healthy. That is what we are choosing, which post we like better. Same as ice cream you need to taste to know.
Licking two 9 volt transitor battery posts simultainiously is shocking. Kind of like two flavors blended together at the Dairy Queen.
Why spend so much time on so little?
It's time to bring this one out again..............

Why not?
WildRice made a very cool topic / first post. He got scould by Dr Obvious about it being in the wrong forum section and listing why was kind of foolishly comical. Dr Obvious is well known to utilize his mall cop persona subjecting us all to his low end nonsense.
The topic was moved to the off topic section which, provided no rules are broken, is essentially a free for all about almost anything we care to post about.
Some of us that enjoy this website are not as tightly wrapped around the axle and may be having some fun discussing licking batteries and more. Smile and enjoy it or not, your call entirely.
Has this list been recently calibrated and verified with the census statistics? If not this may not be politically correct and offensive to some of the people that fall into those catagories. Those people know who they are, and likely are editing new posts to correct your errors. Those erros may blossom into more intense subject matter such as Daisys, Roses, Sunflowers and more. You can almost smell it happening.
