• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

This is just an off handed comment on the off topic board.

I understand both sides.
Let me inject a little Jeff Goldblum here.
"Just because something CAN be done, doesn't mean it MUST be done".
I prefer the off topic board to discuss jokes, or make lifestyle announcements. "I'm getting married";"First grandchild born"; "Prayers requested"
So, yes I agree with having an off-topic board, but I think that opinions on things other than motorcycles are probably better served by forums devoted to the other subjects.
Do you go to Home Depot to buy a pound of Pastrami ?
I wouldn't ask you guys for the best line to use on a CDI FF2.
But if someone here asked the question, I'd do my best to help them out.
I am, however disappointed the way everything has gotten politicized.
I see a truly unfortunate trend, and that's where someone will ask for advice and then start an argument about the advice they are given.
Just think of the threads talking about oil, or tires.
You think it's bad here..........wait till you folks try the internet dating sites.
Wait. Nevermind. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

P.S. DUH, Am I the only one who thought the Pit Bull thread was about Pit Bull Powersports ?? I didn't read the thread until recently.
P.P.S. Everyone is free to post what they want, but I'm also free to not read what they say. In fact, some of the more controversial threads are difficult for me to read because it seems most of the posters are on my IGNORE list.
You've got to love the IGNORE list. If there was such a thing in real life, I might have saved myself a couple of divorces.

Off topic is simply that. Nothing more nothing less. Start putting regulation after regulation on it to please members wants and it's no longer off topic
 
Is it possible to go off topic in a off topic thread located in the off topic section ???????




BTW.......
I don't think there is school today because it's National Cheeseball Day. Be careful of the children running in the streets and teachers pulling out in front of you as they are leaving the liquor store . :firstplace:​

See,. Now YOUR way off topic. :thumbup:
 
Looks like the Pit Bull thread got pulled. I don't understand the intolerance. No one got nasty, no one used horrible language, no one personally attacked anyone, no one brought politics into it. I considered it educational as well as a civil discussion by two opposing sides explaining their view of the breed. :mad::mad:
 
actually I do

I made a mistake.

Hahaha.......I nearly made the same mistake, Dave, but then I realised the two paragraphs were contradictory and saw the quote marks. It’s not like Wyllie to contradict himself ;):thumbup:

My guess is it had to do with the comments about Pit Bull Motorsports, or maybe its ridiculous continual round and round and going nowhere fast "discussion"!

More likely to be because someone complained to the Admin about it rather than it going round and round, Idaho. ;):thumbup:

The pit bull thread was mostly about the dog breed and the pros and cons of owning one.

Were it about the dealer--it probably would have been pulled much earlier. :dontknow::dontknow:

I'm not quite sure what you are saying. If there was a thread where the actual dealer Pit Bull (or whatever name the dealer goes by) was posted, it would have been pulled?

I haven't heard mention of the Pit Bull dealer in a long time, and have no idea what may have transpired.
