Some of the newbies around here need some help. Suggestions?

I'll start:
1) we like punctuation, proper spelling, and correct use of their, there, . . .
2) if you're posting new topics more than twice a day, you need something else to do. Less is almost always more.
3)threads that say "confirm" in them, well, never mind. You won't get it.
4)conspiracy theories are beyond stupid. But this isn't limited to newbies, unfortunately.

No comment...but, thanks, Ma!
(I don't want to get started...I may go too far)

One begins so many new threads I accused them of being the VitalMX "shill" to generate traffic...just seems so shallow.

I know that I may get called an idiot for this question but I am going to ask anyway. But is this Trey Canard's mom? The only reason I ask is because his number for the better part of his amateur career was 241 and I notice you are from OK. If so tell Trey to heal up and get back out there soon!!! We love watching him ride and race against the best in the world. Pretty cool knowing that someone I grew up racing, and getting beat by, is one of the fastest in the world.

Love watching Trey race. I will make sure I use the correct spelling and don't say:
Their will be some good racing.
I bent my break lever.
Don't pressure wash your swingarm barons.
Thank God its not a road bike site because I would hate to see someone posting that they want to get some new ferrins.
or is it rode bike site?

LOL.

Amen!!!!!!

I don't know if it's 'text-talk', or what, but I have such a hard time reading most of the garbage posting by some of our 'newer' members here. I mean, I text a lot, but can still spell full words. Maybe I'm just 'extra smart'?


BTW...did you hear that Trey is riding a new electric bike for Supercross next year? Can you please CONFIRM it?

Great suggestions. Nothing like wasting one's time by seeing posts from needy people (often the same person) that are hungry for attention.

As a father, I am inspired by the way you've raised your son.

In the newbs defense....it is the oldtimers or those with 8billion posts that go "fishing" way too often and create vomit inducing discussion/bantering. Smile
