I’ve started threads, asked questions about things and, received  some really good responses. I mean if someone starts getting mad because I say, quit posting Shamu playing volleyball out of humor, then I can’t help but to laugh. That point wasn’t aimed at you Electromoron. More or, less the responses 😂 

Don't knock it til you try it. Might be the best you ever had! I'm here to humor myself when people can't take a joke. It's a good thing I discovered this place after I quit drinking.

Looks like the pecker pill bot is spamming moto again.

Gotta say, they know where a bunch of limp noodles reside.

Honestly the only issues this place really has is shit posts from shit posters. Ive been around here since 06 or 07 and was on ronronmx before here any one from ronron remember the hidden OG boards to get away from all the retards.

To the point. Most of the shitty threads and replys in Moto are from fly by night poster, new posters, trolls ect. People like the degan and jett super nut gobblers who no matter what their rider is right and can do no wrong or they know more about moto then the next guy but 90% of us here that actually ride or rode know otherwise. That unfortunately will never go away. You just need to not feed the troll and move on. Eventually they get bored and go away.

 

As far as politics I have to laugh that a post about shitty trolls in moto got turned into politics. Heres my basic and honest take on it. ML thank you so fuckin much for letting us discuss politics, that you may or may not agree with in as close to a civilized manner as people can on a message board! The only people I hear complaining about it, mostly, are the poeple who were fine with this place being an echo chamber under guyB. Nothing against gib, hes a cool dude and if he ever makes one of the midwest nationals again I'll gladly say hi and shoot the shit with him like I've done before. But, anything outside of a healthy left lean got cut or put in time out. Now that we can have a different opinion without the fear of getting shit canned some people can't handle it, they miss the echo chamber. Then you have people like thatonewannabemxdickbeater that's just way out in left feild so far out there even people like alp, ect think he's nuts.

 

Another thing on politics that's just an observation. Both here and out in the public you'll find that more conservatives on here are fine with pointing out all sides of govement and gasp even trump can be wrong at time or are just fucking us all left and right. Yet liberal or left leaning people mostly point to the opposite party/people as the whole or mostly the problem. They tow the party line no matter what.

I’ve only been here since 2018 but, since then, it’s gotten more and, more divided. An us against them type of thinking. To an extent, it’s almost like it’s up to us to moderate ourselves.

"So, for the guys who’ve been on Vital for any extended period of time, what’s changed?"

Th big change was "COVID". Our whole lives have changed. Pre-Covid. You'd go to work, have family time, buy things that extened your already voluminous hobby collection. People could afford a place to live, maybe even go out once in a while. Covid changed everything. Then, our genuine distrust of government restricting our every move. And the more we talk about it then more we find out just how bad our government is screwing us. So yes, it's always on the top of the board. Are there other things that make us smile and want to share? Sure, but it doesn't get far till something reminds us of how bad our government is doing. And not only is it us, it has brought what the government is doing to the attention of a LOT more people. Shit, pre-covid we weren't worrying about WWIII, we were worrying about what the weather was going to be for this weeks desert trip. Life is just soo different. It's not a GuyB thing, it's a timing thing. I got banned by GuyB for writing negatively about the pull out from Afghanistan. Did his (guyb) censoring us make the job of the government any less bad? No, anyone with a sane mind knew it was fucked up. Now it's just more in the open.

I do know exactly where your coming  from in regards to, changes post Covid and, all the government BS. I’m still trying to find a damn house I can afford. 500K buys some POS my wife and, I can’t even live in. 

In regards to my question, I probably should’ve been a bit more clear. I meant, in regards to all the BS within the forum. The arguing, the BS posts. It seemed like people were more respectful of one another regardless of their beliefs up until a few years ago. Personally, I can get along with anyone for the most part. Reason I believe that is, I leave politics out of the conversations. People are so quick to say, Lefty. Trumpet. Whatever. Like, it’s a flex or, something. 
 

I always thought, treat others how you wanna be treated and, I’ll match that. Don’t get me wrong. If the person is a complete idiot, Fuckem. I’ll call it out.  But, I’m this way on Vital and, outside it. 
 

I think I understood what you meant. My point was, our lives have changed and it's not just here that politics is on everyone's mind. I believe the covid era really changed us. It just happened to coincide time wise with the changing of the guard to ML.

I don't see it as GuyB being absent.  As bad as I hate to say it, there is no King Cock perusing the boards anymore.  It used to be that any thread, no matter how mundane or insignificant, there were those that shut shit down with their superior knowledge, insider wisdom while staring down their nose as they attempted to keyboard fuck anyone that refused to recognize the importance of their gifted opinion.  They would wear dipshits out before they even got started.  Which is better, dipshits or King Cock?  IDK, they both ruined many many threads.  I bet it wouldn't take 10 guesses of whom I'm talking about.

C19 really changed society most people r really boring now and combative.  I worked 9 1/2 months straight without a day off. I ended up in er March of 19 almost dead.  It was a hassle sitting at a warehouse for 1-2 days trying to get lded, no restroom, food,etc.  but life was normal just work. I did hit a couple strip clubs & I got laid a few times on the rd. Haha . Everyone else is masked up in separate rooms.  I saw quite a few families that would never eat at a ts but they did . To do something normal & I think they enjoyed our co because we were normal joking around & don’t care what the gov says where not doing it. That’s why alot of people hate us . The free spirit of the open rd vibe , we don’t care what society is doing because there all screwed up miserable people.  But moto has been real bad with the post for a while now. A lot of I,m super important view point, insults on others . Kinda of the opposite of dirt bikes r fun.  Maybe in time the people will change & b cool again.

Holy shit Boom.

 

You're taking refuge in non-moto cesspool over moto-related?

While, I agree, there are a lot of STUPID threads in moto related, there's a lot more stupidity in non-moto.  I don't even open the political threads.   

Manny nailed it.   It's the constant victim mentality...  you can tell by all the thin-skinned downvoting.    Us older guys laugh at that kind of shit. 

Oh.....and I'm proud of this dubious honor....wondering what I need to do to hit #1.  Laughing

I'm needing to chill out and enjoy the good stuff here on Vital.

I feel bad for the USA politics...it's a damn mess. I have no dog in that fight and it's really shit to see folk argue about it.

Let's all just try be a little more considerate here.

Have a blessed day ya all.

The definition of deflection. That’s weak “BRO”. 

Eye Hab no eyedeeyyuh whatchew meeeen.
Cunfewsd? 
 

Confused is the guy who, claimed to be all about freedom of speech, saying I want speech censored yet, points out the mod isn’t modding and, attaching  a thread I spoke facts in. Confused is the guy who drops subtle hints of racist opinions while saying I’m all about censorship. Is a MX forum the place for that? 
You aren’t chillin with the “ Woodpile” in county here.

Well no, shit. 

 

Negative opinions such as yours based on ones ethnicity (those people, too many minorities, the Brothers) shouldn’t be given anything but, a F-you. I mean, there’s a way to change it. Not being such a POS poster.  There’s that call out thread you can respond in. I’m done fucking this one off.

People under 35 do not have a proper sense of humor.

They think being funny is when they post something where they act like a dick to troll a "boomer", is having a personality.

Its cringey
