Should people ask for donations from strangers on KB?

[Katman]

Then obviously you are achieving ya gaol of not having friends really well, but I am sure ya could try a little harder.
So may I ask why you really joined Kiwi Biker in the first place? The real truth. And makes ya want to stay here now? What do ya really want out of this Forum?

I'm only here to express an opinion.

As will "certain other people" pretend to be generalising as a way to get at "certain people". It's a very old thing "certain people" do to be harmful and spiteful while pretending that they are not. They do this because they know if they opening said what they really mean, poeple wouldn't like them anymore and get to know them for who they really are. The thing is there are many "certain other people" that are not fooled by this at all, and tend to say as much.

At least it's not in the thread that has upset so many people. Feel free to keep commenting but you're only showing that you can't let it go. Go back to the original thread and stay there if you don't like hearing controversial conversation.

Is that it. No other reason. Not to share an interest. Not to learn. Not to impart knowledge to the new riders so they may enjoy riding more and to help them became better riders (if not for that reason, then ya should stop being a mentor).
Ya only on KB to express AN OPTION. Only one option.
If that is true then you are a truly sad soul.
Some how I don't believe that is true. I really believe ya have way more depth than that. You yourself stated that ya had layers.

If anyone wants to call on my mentoring services it's happily given.

Sadly, I seem to be on a cruisey ride. It seems more people seek mentoring to become a faster rider rather than a safer rider.

And that is a true blessing.

And how is that different to Katman. I'm not fooled by his underhanded remarks even if you are.

You are making an ASS-U-ME there. I can handle controversial conversation (I can also dish it out). But there is a time and place for it (and I'm sure you agree that the thread for Dan was not the time for it). Can you handle the reactions to controversial conversation?

So there, ya do have a greater purpose here. Now all ya need to do is work on ya people skills so that ya might get more riders wanting ta learn off you.

Obviously Katman can't. He's gone trolling and got the wrong kind of "fish" on the line.

I most certainly can handle it, young man. People made it clear that katman's post(s) were inappropriate where they were, so he has done as was suggested and taken them elsewhere. What is your problem with that?

(and there I most certainly do admit to assumption - that you are a "young man" - you might actually be an old fulla for all I know).

[Katman]

And as an aside.........regarding my mentor status.

I was nominated by a person who is held in far higher regard on here than me. (Yes, I realise that's not difficult).

At first I suspected it was a pisstake but decided that on the off-chance that it was genuine, I would make myself available.

I have always said though that the :Me after my name, that I've been saddled with, will not change the person that I am.

I will always state my opinion openly - and be happy to wear the consequences.

He did so after being asked repeatedly to do so. Then his posts got forcibly removed ta PD, as he was not willing ta take the advise given to him. It was only then he started this thread, which he should have after being asked the first time. No Problem if ya believe his intentions where well meaning. Had his intentions been well meaning, don't ya think that he would have left this alone until some of the heat had died down, instead of start this thread as soon as his posts in Dan's Thread got PDéd? So no problem as long as he can handle the feedback.
Thanks for thinking I am young (parts are still young at heart), as for being Old that is a matter of perspective

[Katman]

Rest assured - I'm not about to go and slit my wrists.

I'm glad ya not going ta self harm. Someone obviously believes that ya can do great good. Pity ya wasting that.

[avgas]

The world is full of morons.
Some give money.
Some try to calculate countersteering.
Some don't wave.
Some don't take my advice.

Welcome to KB.
Fuck off the lot of ya.

[avgas]

I asked for money from a stranger once and he said ''yeah but first show us your cock''.

Keep your dealings with KFC out of this thread.
This is serious - like the real world man.
Plus we are getting to the good part - R.I.B. is going to start waltzing with Katman.
Its fucking dancing with the stars.

Can you get that Kroneiburg (or however it is spelt) without the flip-top cap thing on the bottle?

[RiderInBlack]

Plus we are getting to the good part - R.I.B. is going to start waltzing with Katman.

Dam I don't know how ta waltzing. Do ya think he will still want ta dance with me? Oh that's right he's a mentor, so he can teach me. Sweet and ta think all I wanted ta do is give him a Big Hairy Hug, and now he's going ta teach me ta dance. Ooh Happy Joyful Day
