How long was it after joining the forum to submitting you first post?
Was it a bit nerve racking for you, Was you scared of feeling intimidated?

It took me a while to submit my first post!!!

I would have thought the only reason for signing up is you want to say something yourself. :?

Been on too many forums to be "shy"...:P

What does amaze me is the number of psoters that start up topics with "what is the best"....exhaust, system etc. Good god people, use the search menu! :lol: :x

Straight away, but I did check out this forum once years ago when a magazine printed the site address in a SV article. After owning a SV for a year I remembered this site and lurked on here as a guest for a bit (to check out if you're bad/crazy/scary) before signing up.

Still too scared.
I will be there too.
Are you going to Tierra del Fuego?

That is their boat.
They're coming later.
I will see you over there.





Sorry. :roll:

Should I have felt intimidated when i first posted? I certainly would have if it was a real-life meeting, in a room full of everyone. Its much, much easier to say hello on an internet forum.

funny that

you talk to all these peeps on here, then when you meet them in "real life" it seems a bit strange :nemo: :elephant:

Perhaps because in here, theres lots more time (almost infinite, if you wish) to plan a witty response. In real life, you have to be quicker...plus theres always an anonimity associated with internet forums, so you dont worry if people think you look funny, have a weird voice, smell...and you dont worry about having to understand someone (least, i worry about good communication).

I've met only one person on here, the guy who sold me my SV (now mine, you understand, it was his, ok...im making no sense), but perhaps next summer, when im home from uni, it'll be cool to meet people who live near brighton for ride outs.

Anyone fancy Brands WSBK?

I lurked for a long time, while I was deciding on which bike to buy, once I had decided I signed up straight away and posted my first question............so i voted a month :?

I lurked for around a week whilst I was still making my mind up as to what bike to buy, but I've been on the internet too long to worry about anything like being shy.

Dont remember. Twas a while ago now.

Think i read up on the bike prior to choosing to buy and started posting as soon as i'd bought it.

Been lurking on the forum for months, only signed up a few weeks ago and posted straight away.

What's there to be scared of on the internet? :)

Don't answer that.

Lurked for about a week, then posted. Glad I did as I wouldn't have met so many nice folk.
