No.revmonkey said:can you toss me a link or two? please?
Frankly, I wouldn't want my product associated with failure... i.e. bender's failure to land this drop. I guess if he landed it, that would be great expose, but honestly I think the odds are against it.revmonkey said:...the marzocchi guy was like "i don't think thats a good idea..."
Maybe it could be good, imagine this: "if this canfield survived to bender's dementia, it will survive to your dementia" of course, if the bike DO survive...dump said:Frankly, I wouldn't want my product associated with failure... i.e. bender's failure to land this drop.

I can't seem to get my head around the mentality that thinks... ok, I'm barely landing the 40 foot drops... I failed at 50... let me try a 100ft drop.
Are you serious dude?frznnomad said:just because this is an internet forum use regulare english and make it make since plz.
i mean more power to the man for trying a 100 footer but geese this one could actually kill him. i say if your not landing 50 footers with the right trany then why try a 100 footer its kinda obvious that its not going to work out. although its his life and his bike who am i to tell him what to do.

this is ridemonkey. and your suprised a thread got that derailed in three posts?bomberboy11 said:Not that my grammar/spelling is bad or anything, but why the hell is everyone so touchy about this?? Are you all English majors or something? I don't mean to get everyone flaming each other, but I'm just curious why people on this board seem so anal about it. The thread starting out about Bender breaking a bike and somebody asking for a link and somehow evolved into a spelling bee over something like 3 posts...I don't get it, but maybe I'm not supposed to.
This is like, the second to last forum on the whole innanet where most of the regular posters can still type a reasonable standard of conversational English, even the Republicans.bomberboy11 said:Not that my grammar/spelling is bad or anything, but why the hell is everyone so touchy about this??

Good point, although I'm not really surprised as much as I'm just kind of annoyed having to read through more posts of grammar smack talk than the good stuff - Bender smack talk.lovebunny said:this is ridemonkey. and your suprised a thread got that derailed in three posts?
No, but thread hijacking for sophomoric spelling "humor" should be left to the English majors. Pointing it out is one thing, but making everybody else read through pages of pure crap about grammar I could do without.Changleen said:This is like, the second to last forum on the whole innanet where most of the regular posters can still type a reasonable standard of conversational English, even the Republicans.
Conversing using your primary language in its correct fashion should not be the preserve of 'English Majors' should it?
Threads generally only get hiijacked by the spelling/grammar nazis (of which I am one, I admit) when the offence is particularly bad. There are a few posters in here who I have set on ignore because their posts are, quite literally, almost impossible to read without re-reading them several times (Peteydag and tacobelldher are two of them).bomberboy11 said:No, but thread hijacking for sophomoric spelling "humor" should be left to the English majors.

Its actually really easy to tell a non-native english speaker from a stupid english speaker who just doesn't care.la_cleta said:i think because of my post, i'm not a native english speaker... but it seems like frznnomad is a ****ty english writer too
