Should 5,000-plus be taken seriously?

You're OK Anthrax - now get me a beer noob.

Beer?! Did someone mention free beer

Anyone noticed that since RnR doesn't count towards your post count that there are some on here (like Skidmark) who are posting in threads just for the sake of posting? Do they get my respect? Hell no. Then there are others who only post if they have something meaningful to say, and who's posts are worthy of being read.

Why don't you all come to sunny Waiuku for a beer? Nice ride for some of you. Pex you better get on the road soon dude or you'll be late.

I hadn't even noticed that posts in Rant or Rave didn't add to your post count or that totals had been reduced until now. I used to have over 4000 so mine has gone down a lot. Some people don't listen to those who have only posted a few times, regardless of their actual motorcycling experience so it may affect that side of the forum. The thing is, if this forum was JUST about motorcycling, it wouldn't get the patronage it does. We are all more than just motorcyclists so we do like to talk about other things as well.

I must have joined back in 2002 so it's not like my post count has been arrived at in a few months. Maybe one thing that would be a good idea is to only count your first post in a thread - sometimes a thread can go on for pages and pages and you'll get some people who post several times in that thread. Count the first post they make then forget about the rest, because they are only posting about one thing.

NO!!!!! What about all the OT posts within a thread? Won't someone think of the children??

I gotta work around the house today - KB is avoidance.

Big ego for a noob too.

If you'd said that a couple of hundredposts ago I may have been offended. But just looking back over the quality of your posting I now have serious doubts.

Nice troll for a trollspotter

[Fatjim]

Some of the big posters don't even have full licenses, so their opinions shouldn't be take too seriously regarding riding.


They just don't have social lives.

Heck, some don't even have car licenses.

[Hitcher]

Yawn! Are there people with more than 5,000 posts? Amazing.

[GSVR]

I think my post count just went down but I can't be sure. Still got to keep the bling.

[Big Dave]

I plan to stop at 9,999 if 10k still gets a gay pride icon.

[Kendog]

10,000 posts = a really really good rider.

At least it does in gixxer.com

the joys of having him on ignore... now the threads i read are like 65% on topic instead of 45%, lol!!

[Mental Trousers]

Lots of us had over 10,000 posts. Until Spank removed the counts from more of the non-MC forums.

That was a brilliant move. Surprised I didn't think of it myself actually. Oh well, I'll just have to come up with something else to try and lower the bullshit quotient.

Thought you were into pink chardon?

Only when sucked through a mash of fresh strawberries. like lollies that rip yer tits off.
