Maybe you have a chance of fullfilling that life long dream of becoming a Moderator? The SE Photo thread needs some cleaning WAY too much BSing and not enough fotos

Congrats on the deal, I hope you stay with the flavor of RM for years to come, since I first logged on last October I have continuely noticed a decrease on time spent on other boards, I feel like RM is home , its not so huge that you never recognize the posters nor is it so small where it takes a week to fill a page with posts.

Sincerely, MunkeeHucker (Future Turbo Monkey)

well if you thought to grab the url of the image, and the link it went too, it can be tracked down. Just post the info here and RM can see it.

yeah, make sure to put it up here so we can track down those dirty scandals........:D

allright, wtf? The banner was just for "adult friend finder" with a semi-nude picture, this is a bike site god damn, not some porn site! :nope: :nope:
Yeah, that's not cool. If you can send me the URL next time one of those pops up I'll make sure they don't come back.

Yeah like I drink Molson :rolleyes: Keith's is definitely a good option.
Any idea if the sell it in the US? :confused: We used to drink a bunch of different Canadian beer back in the college days on trips into Quebec, but that wasn't one that I remember. Used to stop at the "store on the right" just past customs prior to visiting various drinking establishments. I have no idea what it's real name was. :think:

Congrats on the new ownership, RM is great how it is right now! But some change is always good, and as someone mentioned b4 it would be great to have a place for all the famous/stupid quotes!

alexander keiths india pale ale. Brewed in nova scotia with the finest ingredients since 1820. *cough* scottish accent *cough*

lol, i love those commercials.

other canadian beers:

Molson: Canadian, Export, Dry, Ultra, Rickards Red, Carling, Bohemian and others. molson is partners with Coors

Labatt:Labatt Blue, Labatt Blue Light, Labatt ICE™, Labatt Genuine Draft, John Labatt Classic, Labatt Extra Dry, Labatt 50, Kokanee, Bud Light and some others. Labatt is part of interbrew, this includes Budwiser and a buch of other beers.

then there's a crap load of micro brewries that i could spend the whole day naming.

Pop-ups even if we are logged in? So unless you pay to be a premium member you have to deal with that crap? Maybe this isn't new but it just recently started happening to me. Just annoying enough to make me hit up RM fewer times in the day.

Congrats on the ownership.

Just gotta say I really hope although you are excited about making some future changes and improvements, it stays somewhat the same. Ton's of fancy new additions to the site are nice and all but keep in mind who your audience is. Yes some of us are tech guys but Blogs, extra add-ons to features... nice and all but necessary?

I'd rather see time spent on posting things like industry news, product reviews, some of the stuff that did happen a while back for a short time. Get a crew/staff together to do some testing of new products, the site is big enough that it has to be recognizeable to most industry contacts if not all... see what they can do to help out.
