They seem to get deleted ... Funny thing is they  seem to get most views and most responses that any other making them really the most popular.

Obviously having been fairly prolific in the art I am all for keeping it real  :coolsmiley:

Shame really as people have multiple things to say in a negative thread yet only a coupe of words about someone's hard earned classy build, loads of new build threads struggle to get past 2 pages of posts yet the "other" threads have page after page.

Do the threads hit raw nerves with people? Genuine members will be fed up with rediculous prices through greed.

Yep, well said Nick :daumenhoch:

Guys it's simple - if you think the part is too expensive and being sold by a chancer, don't buy it. What you need usually comes by eventually and I've found over the years on here that if you hold a conversation with other members and get to know them, they will try and help you out so stick a wanted add up :coolsmiley:

Totally agree. So much effort is put into a lot of builds on here and when viewed, you see 120+ page views and 3 comments  :-\

It only takes a second to thank someone for their hard work and dollars spent in providing us with something beautiful to look at.

Only thing what spoils this site is cliques and you can take that how you want it.

Tel, are you commenting on the "babe of the day" thread as some of them have had a good few dollars spent on them to look that good......  :2funny:

I'm not sure how to take that comment  ???

There are plenty of people who know each other in real life that have met through MK or the meetings that are organised
They are also sometimes called friends  :teef:

I'm not aware of any tribal activity going on though


There are a few arseholes as well but thankfully not many (and they usually get called out)

What  ::) he said.

Over the years I've met quite a few people off here  :daumenhoch:

At the end of the day its what you make it  :daumenhoch:

Classic example is today

I've got an old bmx racer coming all the way up from London to Bromsgrove with his kids to have lunch with me.......and play with the horses  :shocked:

He builds nice Revcore's too  :4_17_5:
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

No

Racial profiling...

He looked just like the suspect in question

John, I expected better from you.  Are you saying all Dolphins look alike?  :D
Neil, the bathroom's free. Unlike the country under the Thatcherite junta

What ever happened to freedom of speech?

Yes, the thread was tiresome and the flipping issue comes up many times a year, but people have views so let them air it.

Should it be locked or deleted because the mods are bored of it?

Surely the original thread would have run it's course by now anyway and dropped into the bowels of Rad

You pay your rad money you ride the rad ride
