For the record this isnt my idea, and i did not complain to the powers that be to stop those kinds of threads. If I had anything to say I said it back in posts. In the end good riddance to the endless and pointless exhibition of one upmanship.



Betcha you'll be signed up before too long...

competition is directly related to satisfaction. And the most satisfaction comes from winning, or being right. Not understanding that doesnt make you superior, it makes you boring.

Oh I'm competitive alright, motorcycle, cars, running, chess, card games, softball, basketball. I want to win everything I do. and my friends dont think i'm boring. But there is nothing to gain or win by intolerance. And i dont feel superior by having the last word on some internet forum...

So, threads about bikes never turn into debates?

Sure they did, but with alot more teasing and arguing and alot less personal insults.
I love the one liners and pot shots alot of these guys throw down. Very clever stuff, but calling someone an ignorant fucktard for liking GSXRs over CBRs seldom happens...

Ding, ding, ding! Trip is tired of the complaints so... zero name calling/flaming allowed outside of the War Room. Anything goes inside the War Room...seems cool to me. Gee, I might even be able to get two posts into a thread without being called a "douche" or an "a-hole"...

Get him back.

Maybe now, since Jesus and Avatard broke up, he won't feel like he's being ganged-up on.
