    [QUOTE=BajaRon;942843]There are those who post. And then there are those who count posts. If you're comfortable with the amount of posting that you do (whether it be high or low) then why worry?

    There are plenty of really important things to worry about, and I figure there are plenty of people out there already worrying enough to cover all of us. So, I don't see the need to lift that load myself.
    Ron, lots more important things in life! As long as you are enjoying the ride.

    Guess I'm getting old and sensitive. Love the tech and friendly banter but would sure like for the snarky comments to disappear. I got a little irritated yesterday when someone called me out for posting on the wrong thread when he was wrong and not me. Like I said, I'm sensative. Lol....

    You might be a serial poster if all you post is "". Under each post there is a "Thank you" and " I like" Where if so inclined you "can agree".

    Have run an industry web site myself for 16 years, I've seen it all. This Forum is very valuable, and the people here are the reason. There are many sections that I never look at, as I have no interest or the bike that would not benefit. Apparently I have missed the snarky comments or have just learned to ignore them.

    I think that if you have the time and energy to get upset enough about anything here that you want to kick some butt, you need to get a life. I haven't looked but there is probably a "block user" or "ignore a user" button somewhere, so use it if someone pizzes you off.


    One of the hardest decisions you'll ever face in life is choosing whether to walk away or try harder.

    I had to look and see how many times I've posted over the past 6 years.

    OK I will chime in.....

    I normally do not get into banter. I am a technical person and like to talk about things that help people or, help me when I need it.

    So the banter posts about rides, dolls, dogs, etc do not interest me. BUT I ALSO DO NOT POST IN THOSE THREADS! I leave them alone. I could care less what my post count is! In fact the forums I run have NO "ranking or post count" ratings. It keeps the field level and thwarts those that think more posts mean something!

    Now, I have made a few comments about "post whores" recently and yes I think there are a few. Seems they have to post something in EVERY FREAKIN NEW THREAD HERE regardless if they add any value to the post! In fact almost to take the post off subject as to SAY "I am in the CLICK here so I can do this and lets have fun".....
    I personally hate that. It detracts from the originals posters question and often times causes banter that pollutes the post so bad, anyone later looking for good technical information gives up! Seriously.... When I came here looking for info as a newbee, 30% of the posts in a tech thread had banter amongst the "Click", that I spent far too much time weeding through that crap than needed....

    Then there are the guys and gals that do post a lot but give great info, their opinions and experience, and honestly try to help. They also stay out of posts that "don't apply".... I have noticed that about these people and will say, POST AWAY!

    I will say to the OP of this post akspyderman, your one of those people! You post when you know, post when you can help, and post in banter when it works. Your a "contributor here" in my opinion.

    Well that's my opinion on this subject.... And yes I have an opinion because sometimes it ticked me off when my post got overrun by banter with the "click".....

    By the way just to add. I don't even post anymore in the "social" posts here because I got tired of being beat up by the social Nazi click here and the "you don't know me" thing.

    So social opinions.... well I don't even read that anymore as I know the "click" will kick my ass if I voice my opinion....

    Apparently the social club rules for becoming respected here are some VooDoo I do not understand. And to be honest, not sure I want to.

    I had to take a course in college to meet the GE requirements. It was called Health Science 101, I think. Anyway, the professor said that if I drink vodka and I've, I would get my girlfriend pregnant and ruin my life. If I drank whiskey and ice, I would get arrested for an accident while drunk driving and ruin my life. If I drank brandy and ice, I would fall off the bridge on campus and ruin my life. Immediately I gave up ice.

    I am NOT the only guy that wears flip flops and shorts while working on my Spyder!

    Have a look!



    So..... Now what?

    By the way, I love how this guy dresses! Same as me.... Same shorts I have!
    Cracks me up!

    Maybe that is why I like Auzzie's

    Do you ride wearing flip-flops too? I've seen guys riding in sandals and wool socks, really!
