Slagging off

[SARGE]

The act of slagging off products is way out of line in my opinion.
If you work in the industry where certain brands are sold, there is no reason what so ever to periodically slag off any other brand.

that and its completely unprofessional

You can have a dislike for a particular product, but to just state that the product is crap without any evidence to back your claim up, stands for nothing.

i sell professional quality mechanical tools (American, Euro, Jap manufacture..) some of my biggest competitors are Snap-On and Trade Tools .. if you look in my toolbox .. both brands are represented..(no Chinese shit though.. i WILL slag off shit quality)

If you are employed by a Supplier/Retailer of Motorcycle gear, how would the Employer view the rants about other brands on a Biker site?

seeing how many M/C Shop owners are at mates with each other.. worked together in the past, golf together.. race together .. not well i am guessing

Not sure what you on about

But just to make things clear
saying honda riders are gay is not slagging off its purely fact.

Also I would like to make things clear.....I don't hate Enigma...

I just think he looks like a lille girl.......

Slagging off people without a link is way out of line in my opinion.

Slagging off is something The Stranger does well........

Thank you for answering that question SARGE, I guess it was a rhetorical question but, its not the first time this particular product has been called into question by these young fellows.

If they feel the need to say anything at all, then a full review on the product is requiered, not just be all overly judgemental and say ''its crap''.

Unprofessional...immature and unfounded too.
Dunno where the person involved works but it simply isn't 'cool'.

also ..lets just pretend for a second here.. say 2 guys .. lets call them Steve and Rob come up together as 15 year old motorcycle enthusiasts.. ride together .. race together etc ..

now a few years down the line .. Steve buys a motorcycle shop and Rob buys a competitor shop.. both these guys have shitloads of friends in the motorcycle industry who own various businesses ..


so anyway .. Rob hires someone with a little too much time on his hands .. probably fairly young .. and the young man spouts off something at a party one evening where everyone can hear "Slamming" Steves shop ...."COMPETITORS" dont necessarily mean ENEMIES


Steve hears this and calls Rob over and mentions it to him... now Rob wouldnt look kindly to hearing this ... Fires the young man and tells all his mates not to bother hiring him..




that would suck

Yes indeed Mr D, indeed
I have found in very recent times just how small the motorcycle industry is but fortunately for this honky it has worked in my favour but only due my own doing. However if I'd been slagging off my so-called competitors then I'd be jobless at the moment. Instead I scored a new job within 5 days and have 2 other prospects too.

When you do a product review on any given bike, its honest, and theres the difference between right and wrong...honesty, not a narrow minded view on things.

reviewing stuff properly is hard
i write on here for a motorcycle audience, it would be a lot more mild for a non motorcycling audience

Yes indeed, fact still remains, your reviews are honest and not governed by personal loathe.
