Just looking at member list, and of 35 people who have joined so far today 14 have bad karma already!

.......Wonder if they are all friends?

There are newbies who I am sure are welcome, then there are groups of people who come along to cause trouble. The latter are not usualy welcome Smile

I'm not sure all of these people are from visordown you know...

Either way, it must be either the day of the touchy noob, or the day of the hormonal BCF members, because I've never seen so many people with bad karma!

I don't want to get flamed for this, but I am being 100% honest when I say that in general unless they are spamming noobs rarely get bad karma! I'm not really sure what is going on, because I have been flamed for a reasonably innocuous comment in F and FW.

Wether or not you have a chip on your shoulder or whatever the problem is, I would like to welcome you all to the forum. I believe that we genuinely do not have any predjudices against people, unless the perception is that they are here just to spam/cause trouble/work for a vehicle sales organisation that ask you to pay them 70 quid to sell your bike/car for them.

All men and women are equal on this forum!

And yeah, so the karma can be a pain for some people, but you get used to it.

Please don't take any abuse too seriously on here, I'm sure it is all meant in the best possible taste (Eh Carv Wink

).

Now can we end the bitching and get on with our lives? Smile

However, if it does turn out Visordown are playing some sick joke (which is entirely possible I guess) then I think maybe the Karma system is doing its job! Thumbs Up

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

I've never understood how the size of someones penis directly affects their posting on an internet forum, but there you go.

It definately seems to me that the majority of people who joined today (12th Jul) do seem to know each other and I suspect they are having a good laugh with each other now.

Also, the further this thread goes, the more people sign up, obviously telling all of their friends.

End of the day, the same bit of advice applies, if you don't like it, then go away, 'cos it ain't changing for you.

Ok then why don't we just chill out Wink

perhaps make a post and introduce yourself rather than arguing if you have any intention of hanging around?

Oh and broken tags will worsen your karma even more Razz

this forum is varied already...we have over 500 regular posting members, hence why people coming back...and nobody ever has problems with the karma, if u are having karma problems....u obviously deserve it as the moderators have the power to "revoke" unfair karma decissions....now in your case this hasnt happened, so it must be justified.

If you genuinly came here to chat, talk about bikes and get involved with the forum, then drop this username, sign up again and start contributing your motorcycle knowledge on the forum.

People will appreciate that more than arguing in a thread. Thumbs Up

Must be the curse of my mummy today...it's her 41st Birthday today (12th Jul) Rolling Eyes

Seriously, I have only been her a month and just look at this thread it is like a playground, no offence people you are a great bunch but this thread is doing absolutely nobody any favours and if I were a guest it would seriously put me off posting.

Just ignore the nOOb's who came here to cause trouble, there is no need to react, you only encourage them further...Just let the Karma system do its job. Smile
