I think i´ve been on three Junkies rides.

Seen four crashes, and more than a couple of near misses.

My bike is nearly fixed now though so hopefully they'll invite me along again before the end of the riding season

Perhaps makes some of the mod decisions on this site look more reasonable, eh?

I think they are in a difficult place. Seems like somebody has threatened one or two of the admin team via PM and also via text message as well. Not sure how amused I would be if that happened to me, but then thats why I am very careful about who I give my phone number out to.

Oh very much agreed Fizz.

I was referring to how many people like the modded feel of this site in terms of language and overall style more than anything else. You know, the style that sometime results in accusations of 'over-modding'

Wthout ass kissing too much, apart from the rather annoying thread title changes, this site is well run.
Having looked on other forums and the crap on there, I actually think most people on here appreciate the swear filter and the way it's run.

The proof is in the pudding as well cos even when the sv is sold we still hang around, also look how many members are online at peak times compared to other sites.

I'll put my brown tongue away now.

^+1 I find the thread title changes pretty irritating but other than that from my short experience of this site I don't have any problem with the modding.

I know how difficult it can be as I mod on a couple of other sites, one bike related and one not.

People, can I suggest if you have an issue on a site, discuss it on that site.

This is the org. Not the junkies. How would you lot like them to start posting inappropriate comments about us. If you have constructive comments about the junkies let them have them. If not keep your opinions to yourself.

Don't you just hate it when the mods feel the need to step in a ruin a conversation...never happens on the Junkies forum
