    A lot of people do quite a bit behind the scenes and don't post about it nor get posted about too so as well as many of the good deeds and favours we hear about there are loads that go unsung - which is as it should be.

    the only true Charity is that which is cloaked in anonymity.

    MSTRS - you're a gem of a bloke anyway and only see the best in the rest of us!

    See y'all soon!

    I would have to agree with you. I moved to a new town and got a little down about leaving my family and friends, only to find the Kbers up here and I'm very very thankful for it. They have made me feel very welcome and one of the group even though I didn't ride. Someone is always willing for me to be pillion and it inspired me to get my license now they are helping me to get on the road. Not only that I have a Kber fixing my bike and he didn't know me from a bar of soap but still willing to help and now I would consider him a great friend.

    I have also had the pleasure of going up north and meeting new kbers in Auckland, slightly further up north and Tauranga and AlWAYS felt like I have known them for years. I have never been in that situation before and loving every moment of it.

    I've never put a thread in PD. I rest my case. Very unfriendly.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I like Jim2. I don't have to suck up to anyone. He has been nice to me.

    I like his bald spot!

    OK sorry if it wasn't you mate but when I commented on that the other day you piped up like you'd done it.

    Come out with us again you won't find any of us unfriendly and I have no intention of bad mouthing anyone.

    I'm here for the fun and the rides and just find the attempts at stifling the community the most unfriendly thing that is happening. If you can convince your fellow mods to lighten up I am sure it will lighten up.

    There was an initial adjustment but I think it's fine now, Merv

    Try and keep the thread on track. I made a comment that was valid for me and wasn't intended to drag the "the war" into the thread.

    I'm thankful for the friends I've made through this site, but of late largely find KB an unpleasant and unfriendly place.
    Sad you feel like that mate! Not being privy to all that goes on I suppose I cant comment, I have never met you, but have appreciated your friendship in a couple of things.

    I know all I need to know. And you ensure my opinion remains...
    Stories of KBers helping each other would be nice. Names optional to protect the modest.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    There is a shitload of support in here. I love it. Absolutely love it.

    The real KB experience isnt being online its meeting these people on rides or events. Thats when I get a true measure of who these people are. Ive had so much fun and laughs on rides and am always blown away with the support I get and others get. Most of time I cant remember their KB names though, and I am pretty shy on these rides to introduce myself.

    I also have online friends who have helped me out as well... and hopefully will get to meet them (maybe at the Rapa Rumble in March! ).

    Its been a pretty crappy last couple of months for me, but I have always had someone from KB to talk to.

    If Uncle B hadnt told me to get a bike with in a certain time to enjoy summer riding I wouldnt had. If people like Skelstar, Ronin, Kinje, Elle, buckbuck, Mrs KD, and loads and loads of others.. hadnt helped me with my riding, or support, or just a laugh, I probably would still be riding around Masterton not venturing out of the town. I have had numerous positive supportive pms, reps, posts, txts from people... (friends) that just make my day. All this way over shadows the bitching that goes on on KB!
