And people wonder why there is so little respect for academia.

Reckon, sounds like a bunch of nerdy twats that can't ride for shit, but talk shit about riding. I guess you don't want to feel bad if someone got in that could actually ride a motorcycle?

Bold move - actually making a decision I mean.

. I like the idea of a private club forum on a public forum allowing for public and private discussions and threads. And to say that club members can't ride is a stupid call, lots of us are noobs, but plenty of us can ride very well, like isaac and motorb and nish and...list goes on.

You serious?
KB is social by nature. Despite my lack of respect, abuse and condescending attitude I have managed to meet folk far and wide whom I would never have known existed without KB.
When I wish to converse or have a private discussion I will usually meet these people as described in point 3, however, should there be a need for random private discussion I can phone, text, email or IM.

Your proposed clique is anti social in nature and thus nothing like KB. As to being jilted, sorry no way. A significant portion of the posts by the kiddies are very skidmarkish anyway eg. There is definite merit in keeping this kind of rubbish private, hence my vote.

So to answer your question - No.

lol your logic is beyond my capabilities of comprehension.....so you yourself part-take in private conversation (as i assume a large proportion of kbers do) but the moment someone sets up a group-based private area you start a crusade of abuse.....and you say it's anti-social.....but the private area has been set up more to have quick and easy contact with the club members and not to skive off and have private chats in a virtual cafe.....

but at the end of the day, your posts are mindless drivel to somebody and if each one of those person's bitched to you about it, then kb would be a sad place.....i really hope that you are able to change your attitude, and if your ways are set in stone, then i really hope that there arent too many more people with your attitude that pop up on kb.....somehow i dont feel like the club needs to explain its ways to a muppet....

good day sir

I'm sure your right there about the riding, although it depends on what level of riding your actually talking about. I just think that any group that excludes open membership is just a bunch of tards yanking each others %^&* to make themselves feel important. Nothing wrong with being a noob, I used to ride the DRZ as it could only do 152kph but that was ringing the nuts off it and often rode with slower riders and still enjoyed myself. In fact, roads that I had ridden down at stupid speeds so many times, I was actually able to have a look around as I'd never seen anything but the road before.

ass-u-me?

we have never excluded people from joining the club, and being a club member or not has never affected anyone's ability to come on a ride unless AUSA funding was dependant on their membership (their rules not ours)

there is currently no criteria to be met in order to join.

it costs only a dollar to join, and that is just to make AUSA happy (they fund alot of stuff we do)

KB has allowed for private goups, where people can discuss things without being harrassed by others, and you're having a go as us for using this new feature? this prvate group is ultimately just a way for us to keep track of active members so we can discuss things relevant to the club without interference/repercussions

clearly this argument arising after posting up in the public SMC subforum rather than the private area somewhat proves this point.

this isn't the first time some biased, stubborn wankers (or trolls) have gone into our student area and then had a go at us students using the same old rhetoric based on false premises. frankly you can all fuck off. this is EXACTLY why it's private.

Having to associate with and interact with real live people?
