Yah people should really just step back and realize that internet forums like this are just concentrated blips of our personality, often accentuated and many times distorted. i personally think EGO and pride is what causes many interesting and knowledgable people from the board because it's hard for them to differentiate a slight or off-handed remark from a cruel insult, when mostly it's just an impersonal statement/opinion more times than naught.
That being said persons should realize that many people are sensitive to that, and should be respectful. Otherwise we just wind up having a board full of assholes.

At any rate i hope that many people recognize that using the board is fun, but recognize that ultimately it's a tool. Whatever you use it for is up to you, but i personally find it a great resource for learning, socializing, and promoting mt. bike advocacy and recreation. We all have mt. biking in common, and that's what brought us all here in the first place.

I don't taunt and hassle Loco for a week and he gets pissed off and leaves. This is completely unfair, he should have been banned.:)

As much as I would like to care what you read, or think, I have a burning desire to not.

dude i hit a bird coming back from a ride the other day, weirdest thing. i was like "it's a bird they fly he'll get away they always do" then POOF!!!! Feathers everywhere. i was a little sad but the bugger must have been sick so i did him a favor.
i donated a little extra money to the redcross though to try to clear up a little of that karma.

WTF is up with tinnitus??? Drives me crazy! And my doc says it doesn't necessarily mean anything nor is there a "cure". I've noticed that it's worse when I'm popping lots and lots of vitamin-I on those painful days.

I haven't been posting regularly for a couple months now and I just want everybody to know that I'm not a ghey pvssy whiner like some people, I've just been too busy for the monkey is all.

So, does DRB still hate MMike? Do fire extinguishers still come in red with optional woks and hot lesbos?

since you bought a green dot, does that mean we at least have a year left of your $hit? If you leave can I have it?

j/k...you never annoyed me as bad as some...but you have your moments.
