Say isnt this post one of the ones you are going on about? Its encourging posts about nothing. like this one.

Besides is it a bad thing that people that get on well have a bit of a chat. If people nead help they post and get help and a chat. Is there anything wrong with that? What has gone wrong in this world that now you cant even have a bit of a chat and bump up your post count like me.

If ya don't want the wiff waff chatter then go to the tuning and tweaking pages.I have learnt a thing or two in there lately.

I am just scrolling looking for a post where spudchucka is :ar15: down Mr Girardin in a ball of flames or vice versa which is generally quite interesting reading........ Hahaaha

Nothing like cops and robbers................... ah I mean cops and traffic cops. NOW there is a new kiddies game!!!!!!!!!

Kewl! This forum is finally mature. At this point, a whole lot of users will post a rant complaining about how much the forum has deviated from their idea of what it should be, then leave en masse.

A few months down the track, the whole cycle will repeat itself, and Whoah! Deja vu!
All forums are like this, except the ones that are religiously 'kept in line', to adhere to their pure Aryan bloodlines, by zealous and overbearing Forum Nazis.
Thankfully, SpankMe has kept a very light hand on the reins, thus allowing all sorts of interesting and entertaining stuff to propagate on this here site.
If it goes the way of most fora, SpankMe will eventually get tired/bored/disillusioned/broke/ abducted by space aliens or run out of space/money/patience and kick us all off, and close the forum down. Then we can all resume our normal pre-KB lives, and find somewhere else to bleat/show off/vent our frustrations/complain about peple deviating from our warped view of what things should be like.

Enjoy it while you can.

Post all the crap you like, I'll read some of it.

That's the fun of this thing really, we hear all sorts of stuff about all sorts of things from a group of bikers. Where else can that be had in NZ?

I would hate to see it change - remember I'm the one who said I was even happy hearing cage stuff from bikers. If I can't be bothered with a thread I'll move on, but I like being able to make that choice myself.

I have a different stance on abortion: I'm against abortion, but for killing babies. That way everyone loses, and I win. I'm neither pro choice, nor pro life; I'm pro you-shutting-the-hell-up. The only way I'd be "pro choice" is if it meant I could choose which babies I could abort, and only then if I could lift the age restriction to 80.

I think the reason why SOME of the posts lack a little substance (and yes, I know ALL my posts lack substance, well, have a great deal of ANOTHER substance), is that the chat room is really slow, and you could probably converse faster in the forums.

Also, you will often find that someone will start a thread and it may continue, or evolve into something completely different, it doesn't matter what really, but discussion will occur, and people will share thoughts and information. Not every thread will be enjoyed by every reader, so as Jim says, stop reading when you get sick of it. But come on, we all know the truth, once you join the KB site, you're transfixed into reading anything and everything that is posted, and forming a strong personal opinion, which you will debate to the death :calm: :whistle: :msn-wink:
