    Ummm... I think a few people took this the wrong way.....I don't care about post counts....I was just making an observation, a little conversation, and thought I had said something a little funny.

    I have great respect for the pecking order of a message board and did not mean to step on any long time members toes....sorry if I did.

    The main observation was the less than a month or two old members who rack up posts as fast as they can.

    I've been here for almost a year now and I haven't really made many posts......I guess I'm boring....

    Please anyone who's feathers are ruffled, I didn't mean it anyway like that and I appologize. I guess I was just trying to be a little humorus. I don't make frivilous posts....and I gues I was just in the mood to do so when I started this one....this is the open forum right? lol

    Thanks for eveyone who understood that. Hopefully I've entertained...

    well for some reason i had the thought you where pretty interesting wheni saw your name under the thread, if interesting is the word im thinkin of......i dunno if its the 500, or jus your previous posts i read by you, but i personally dont think your post count matters, its if those posts are used lending advice or sharing information or asking for advice and information, without just randomly starting threads about stupid stuff or random posts, like just one smlie or something.....i guess it has a lot to do on how often you can access a computer too, some people may only get to the computer at the local library, and thats why they haven pposted much, i actually am a member of a few different forums sites so i try to go to each jus as much if im not looking to get particular information or advice so if anyone sees me on another forum say hi, and ill do the same, There whhere some post before on this that where very true, as to the fact that everyone on here is a tight knit group of people, no matter how much ya ride, and even if you like fairly odd things, your still respected and befriended(?) (takin in as a friend) and never hated on for no aparent reason like ethnic background etc....

    that was really long buttttt

    Oh thanks Louis, now I'm really mad.

    Just kidding. I hate to break the new buddy but you're not boring at all. I concider you one of the more interesting members here. I'm having fun checking out your project pages and when you do post it's usualy worth checking out. I'm just a gabber by nature, that's my whorish post count excuse.

    i didn't point fingers!!! you can tell by the info given if someone knows thier stuff,,, i just hate to see alot of wrong info,,,, and trike size has nothing to do with knowledge,, i also have several 70's and i see alot of good info on them here,,, so hang loose!!!



    just beacause a 70 isnt a 250r doesnt mean i know nothing i just dont know about 250 r's
    exactly my point i am not sayin you know nothing,,, i am saying if i you were giving wrong advice in a 250r thread i would just correct you thats all ,, but i see you are not afraid to admit you know little about 250r's some people AREN'T

    I think If you can help someone out of a jam then let er rip. From what I have seen In my short time as a member, If someone can help then they always do. That means alot. If you don't know much about trikes, there is alot to be learned on this site. All you guys are great. Look at your post count now Louis its going up like mad. I don't even know all the details on post counts, but I have learned alot & I have been working on small engines for a lomg time. Keep up the good work boys.

    I'm a member on alot of forums.. from woodworking to electric transportation etc.... i end up having a high post count on all of them..... Some of the forums i join i will drift away after a few weeks.. others keep me interested, this one in perticular really keeps me giong.

    I learn something new every day, and i love to help when ever i can.. if i give advice on something i'm not sure of.. i'll mention it.. " Hey.. i'm not sure about this but .. .. . " At least gives someone a starting point of reference. I'm sure i've led some in error over the 2500 posts i've made.. but for the better part i try to do my best .

    The Electric forum is insane.. all lurkers.. i will post a question.. there will be over 100 views.. and 1 reply. sheesh.

    I work in a call centre.. i talk all day long.. 8 hrs a day.. 5 days a week, and happen to have internet access, so i need to keep myself sane somehow. and i usually have alot to say..

    Heck.. look how long this reply got !!
