I don't care if your new to this site or not. But this site was a part of Dragons soul. In his passing it appears the JJ has adopted his bad
traits only! I dont dont hear the good traits of "hey, i have that spare
part for you. Let me put it in the mail for you."

I don't want to see any more of that "Search" Google" shit.. and I am on the fence about the "intro" thing. You guys shit up the place. You can kindly inform them about the way things run around here. If yall hung up about the search button. Then advise the owners of JJ to make a large page that says.. "New to bikes? Enter your question in this large box first!" Till then then the "search" button is just a tiny small white thing that looks like a piece or rice when I lean back in my chair. Easly over looked and miss understood.

My name is Tommy Dolce and if you agree. Just type agree. If you have a problem. "Send it to my PM box only". Failure to do so will only prove
that you a moron that can't follow direction. Much like the people you say are too dumb for google.

I know Mike I know. I would rather guys here point them to this link.
Much like dragon did.

He would direct new guys to this with out being an ass. There is no need for
guys to make 9 different replys all saying "search". At the end of the day, either
your that cyber bully or the dude that helped a brother out. Your call fellas.

Oh but Doug has his moments of being an ass quite often too, depending on how much of an ass the other party was being, he would bring it to the next level of assery and 9 out of 10 times it was warranted. And very humerous to those of us who really knew "Doug" as well as "Dragon".

See some people have a misconception about riding our taste in motorcycles, and when they join they feel the need to show how loud and proud they are to say FTW which in their minds will help them fit in better. But little do they know the majority of members here have gotten over all that rebel without a cause shit and just enjoy looking at, riding and talking about motorcycles.

It's like those chachi's you see with their gel helmets all sculpted up going to a bar to start fights to show how tough they are. They spend so much time trying to show how badass they are that they don't realize that there's a ton more in front of them like smokin hot women (or men depending on what you're into).

Anyway thats just my 2 cents CDN about the situation, if a dude's gonna be a dick then he's gonna get treated like a dick or the opposite. Obviously Doug made his mark if people (and i've even caught myself doing it) automatically jump on the search or intro wagon because if you ever spent more than 10 minutes here lurking, thats what you would see happen whether it be nicely or assholish (is that even a word?)

My train of thought has reached the station, I'm done, my brain hurts now.

Agree, never did an intro, somehow got away with it, but in all honesty I don't think it should be required. If someone wants to know more about another person, then they can simply reply, "Why don't you tell us a little about yourself?"

Done deal.

Agree.

This board has felt unwelcome and unstructured since dragon passed. And i haven't been too helpful either.

Agree and guilty.

I agree it's changed and not necessarly for the better, Doug had his good days and his bad days, I enjoyed both.
But I'm guilty too.

Agree

Being as young as I am coming onto this board a couple years ago was very intimidating, it was the guys that pointed me in right direction, gave pats on the back, and would give insight on any questions or concerns that I had that keeps me here. Its that kind of help that not only helps to get young generations into the hobby and but also keep the knowledge flowing on the sight rather than all the crap. Like tommy said about the search google crap, thats hard to do especially if you are not real sure as to what you may be searching.

I agree, and thanks for having the balls to call us out for it. I'm quilty of being a stickler about the intro. And I think it needs to be done, but I could probably be a little kinder pointing it out. Its a give and take situation here, and I think its old fashioned courtesy to introduce ones self. Its like showing up unknown at a Barbeque, with no beer and going strait to the cooler without so much as a fuck you. It would get your ass kicked in my world. So asking to be a included here, I think the cost of admission is an intro. Small price to pay for the knowledge found here. And yeah, I to miss the hell out of Dragon.

Dolce, I dont care anymore. I try to answer questions if I can, I make it a point to call a douche a douche if necessary. Half the guys on here are assholes, there is no fixin it, look at the HAMB...we here, know who will help, and who will only holler.......Help who you can when you can.

Nothing will be perfect forever...myabe we've jumped the shark as they say...

Maybe I Kinda of agree.
