Please, if you can't add something positive to a post. Or make an informed referral and or reference. Don't reply to a post. It seems some people are typing just to type without really addressing the issue at hand. It is really frustrating to have to read thru useless answers to questions that are valid. Just my views take them for what they are worth. Doc

My name is all over page 1 this morning. Here's why.

When I see posts on pages 5-10 with ZERO replies, I usually bump them because a lot people don't seem to look beyond page 1. This happens a lot with new people making their first post and nobody answers. I feel sorry for them and I know some of you guys have the answers they need. I think the forum should help people, especially new people, even if they sometimes ask the dumbest questions, or ask the same exact thing in two or three different posts.

I see that bumping them is working since 10 of the previously unanswered posts were answered in just 45 minutes.

Doc, I get your point and agree that some posts are just a waste of bandwidth, BUT, lets be honest here...you didn't get to 1249 posts by being informitive EVERY time! We all try to help out but the minute the fun goes away, is the time that any forum starts to end!

Thanks guys, you're both right. My 1249 didn't all come from being useful. There is an old thread called the nuthouse, there a lot of my time there. That is the point, the post was meant to waste time.. Doc

I have insomnia and spend a lot of time here at night. I know it doesn't look good when my name is everywhere in the morning, but I can't sit here all night and not reply. I try to help when I can.

I got no quad, R. That's my other ride. Don't forget to vote, hot or not. It's not important to me, but may be to Randy. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

330 pounds of beef on a 50 pound scooter. Kind of like a circus bear on a tricycle. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I had to change my avatar after picturing that one.
