Actually I just went there for some advice.
When I saw that the wankers who resided there needed some lessons in manners
though I could hardly skip out without doing my bit to help.
Let me know when the lesson has worn off and we can start again if you like.

George.... the above is not going to win you many friends in here.
Most of us have been here for years and know each other reasonably
well (Superbikes and MotoGP meetings [1]).
What will eventually happen is - you will lose - people will just
kill-file you.
What you really should do (although ignore it if you want) - is to get
to know the people and get to know their type of humour - a lot in
here are just winding you up... and you keep coming back for more!
Johno <the truthful>
[1] and a few Aus.Moto dinners. >> Stay informed about: Reasons Not To Wave. |
