Why dont all you guests sign up and become proper members?...you've been camped on here for days cos your own forum is down? so come on do the sporting thing and sign up

If this forum is anything like BURNERWORLD then the stated 'guests' are probably spambots and not real people browsing the forum... more likely a bit of software trying to post an advert for viagra or cheap car insurance.

We have days when we have dozens of so called 'guests' online....

They may well be real guests Dave, we have 'bot protection now...

Lot's look, but don't get involved, that's cool - we have a massive amount of info on here but not everyone wants to sign up.

I guess it depends whether they are crawlers or spambots, both do very different things.

And also judging the lack of old school bmx's and parts at carboots/ dumps / garage sales - it could be people looking up stuff so they can put it on ebay for a over blown price

I have noticed a lack of bmx's coming my way from sorces for that last year or so - most now turn up on the bay saying found in shed - burners are turning up more at a high price for a standard ride

I guess dealers (carboot - scrape - ebay) are all taking a look into bmx's as it's a money thing for them and not a joy
