To what end? [insert :spudwhat: emoticodweebicon here]
If (by some weird and bizarre fluke of fate) I were nominated as a mentor, I'd change my name to "Phuk", or "Screw" or "Roger", or summat like that.
But that's never gonna happen - it's like with everything else: you need to not be invisible and mentally "differentiated".![]()
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....![]()
umm that makes no sense... but then again neither does life...
The Mentors are nominated and then if you disagree and a have a vaible reason why someone should n't be a mentor then let them know... if they don't that the monated person doesn't know how to ride and truely is a complete cock then why would the senior mentors stop him from becoming one if they don't know but mets the rest of the crietia
And you're surprised about that because...?
NOTHING I say makes much sense (hence my signatures lines, which are a form of disclaimer, and which keeps me from being bothered by people asking me stuff). But then neither does most of what is said or happens on KB make any sense.
It's not like it's Real Life or anything, y'know.
There are criteria?
There are people on KB that actually know how to ride properly?![]()

... and that's what I think.

it's the KB equivalent of a God but instead of "the great I AM" Mental is thought he'd risk eternal damnation and went for "Me" instead.
Those ":Me"s can smite your ass though - they'll give you boils, plagues of locusts... erectile problems all that good stuff so keep kissing their hineys till your nose is brown - and then some!

I think I can lay claim to providing proof that the mentor scheme isn't a popularity contest.

He isn't a road mentor so he doesn't need one and he's quick enough to beat you
What and not whine, snivel and grandstand on here, you've got to be fucking joking eh?
or Blow
No there's not but there's a a lot that like to think they can
Nah I agree they shouldn't have plastered it all over the forums and asked for peoples input like they did the bastards
Yip Budd as race mentor, good idea... but the ladie that bullied them (budds words) into the position has no idea just like those that 'plastered it all over the forums' they have never ridden with the mentors... it was a populatery contest simple as, like when a senior mods concerns were pushed aside on just this.
Well if anyone can actually define "ride properly" like whos to say what properly is? (eg: my style suits me but may not others)
I believe ther are people full of wisdom that would make ideal mentors but they are not the sort to stand up, I find those that do stand up have a lot to learn themselves last time arond BiffBaff was a classic example, his riding ability (vewied 1st hand) left a lot to be desired.
BTW kick... sarcassim is the lowest form of wit, you can do beter.
cheers DD

Yeah well Budhha is such a shy retiring sort of guy I'm sure he'd never stand up for himself if he didn't want to do it
It's fairly obvious from what you've put in here that you have no real idea about the whole process regarding the mentors and why and how those decisions were made
Some of them also can't be bothered getting involved, if you think you have someone worthwhile there's nothing to stop you putting them forward
There's mentors appointed who I don't believe are suitable either and I opposed, did you pm anyone regarding your concerns?
I think some were elected solely because of their popularity with certain sectors of this site, but at the end of the days I don't give a toss because I won't be using their services and if the system works as it should people like that will be weeded out
The full quote attributed to Oscar Wilde is
"Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence"
I reckon the 'mentor' system is just a few flags in a database and a pair of green letters on screens that'll mostly be ignored and a couple of years from now be quietly turned off due to a profound lack of relevance to anything aside from a few rather large egos.

kiwibiker is full of love, an disrespect.
- mikey
large EGO's you fucking kidding me, just because some people are keen to help others we get accused of having large ego's.
the whole thing, which I started, was due to a shitload of new members crashing and not having a clue how to ride, or having a clue about anything to do with bikes, since its inception there has been fuckloads of people bennefit from it, how many crshes have been saved ?
Tell me anything bad about the system which is real and accurate as opposed to what appears to be a bunch of whinging dickheads with nothing better to do than raise their wanky concerns for no benifit other than to muster up green rep and then maybe your wishes will be granted and we will as a group ignore the new members and leave them to their own misguided devices.
If ya got nothing nice to say about the effort then be quiet
That goes to all of you, consider yourselves served !
Ive run out of fucks to give
