That's what I'm wondering. Maybe we just need a separate folder in the forum called the "sh*it flinging ape house".
It's not just American culture and society. It's a global pandemic. Like Michael Jackson said, "If you want to make the world a better place take a look at yourself then make a change." That's why I want to move to Canada and praise Haliee Selassie. Who's coming with me?
reminds me of my math teacher last semester: exampre, integrow, currr (curl)raugh out roud
(a buddy of mine in japan hipped me to this term, and i'm in love)
oh gosh, quoting Michael Jackson. What has become of this place?
It's a freaking downhill forum, all you pansies go to MarthaStewart.com and whine away your troubles
ya guys its called internet bullying. pretty soon the obama administration will track you down and charge you with attempted murder.
And now a word from our sponsors:
Oh, and...
what we all talk like Astro!?!raugh out roud
(a buddy of mine in japan hipped me to this term, and i'm in love)
i mean he was loveable but...
well no, actually, some sound like scooby...
The Internet is for porn
I think you got it there. It doesn't help that the American economy is falling apart -- lots of folks are stressed out, lots of people on the verge of poverty, or what feels to them like poverty.
Add that up with the fact that DH is a form of cycling that requires a bit of aggression --I think of releasing predatory instincts and trying to chase something down when I pin it-- you're going to see people a bit more aggro than usual, I think.
I think it helps to for us all to ask ourselves, before posting something, whether we'd want to say that to a friend, or whether we'd be bold enough to say it to the face of someone who is easily angered. We all know the internet gets in the middle and gives people a bit more freedom to unleash their inner devils.
Goes both ways though. I'm alot more honest and upfront with friends then I am with strangers, because I mean nobody any harm. I say things like I see em, but if I were talk to people like I talk to my friends, most people would get offended thinking I was being a dick.
Haha...Oh, and...
That´s a very good question. It used to be all balls out, but now it´s just packed in together with shimz and oil weights. No wonder people get frustrated. You just got to get out some time. Visiting new places can be a very good thing, if they´re clean.

I'm the best rider in the world. Santa Barbara kicks a$$ and we're all the greatest s**t on the planet.
Haha, jk. In all honesty...idk why there was so much hostility on here. We're all riders, we all used to be slow and just beginning at some point. I think that some of us just forget the fact that we used to be in that place too. I remember back in the day racing beginner, looking at all the fast guys and wishing I could some day race Pro. Now, I am racing Pro but still have mad props for every downhiller out there because you're out there doing what we all love....riding bikes!
No matter what class you race, where you live, how fast or slow you are, we all share the love of riding...let's just leave it at that.

East Coast Rules, enough said.
Has anyone seen my wallet? I put it down over here a minute ago...
WTF did I miss?
Everyone is broke & losing or already lost their jobs & houses, I know I'm WAY short on positive thoughts & good nature these days....
Sorry for the derail, but what is the best DH bike?
I like cake.
And porno.
And porno.
A really fat and juicy cake, I suppose. Something you could get almost anything running really smooth with. Like a bicycle chain for instance.
WAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaa....you're been mean to me! Stop hurting my feelings! WAH!!!!!
That would be this one, good enough for MMike...
nice mags
Looks flexy.
Does it come in rootbeer?
Can I freeride it?
What is the best forks for that? My mom says I can get a 2010 Boxxer World Cup or a Super Monster.

Is it because I'm not here much these days?
I'm still around guys, I still love you all.
I feel I'm the one to blame here. Maybe I just need to spend more time with you all.
Hug me.

Bumped because i feel some people need to re-read the original post.
This seems to happen every off season.. in the absence of WC races or new products to discuss, every other thread turns into an multiple page argument, out of which nothing constructive can come.
Negativity and aggressive posting drags the vibe of the whole forum down. Not that we should all be holding e-hands and singing Kumbaya, differences of opinion will always be present but can we just keep things a bit more civil?
