.....KawaNOW and the VROC......

[pablo]

I don't think this tread is motorcycle related. I think we need to talk to the "higher ups" about moving it to the Off Nomad - General Topics category :).

Here we go with the rules that the VOCRer were talking about.

Whew! You had me worried for a second there Pablo, and then I saw the smiley face. Alls well in our world again.

I have never been to the VROC forum, but I did find KawaNow through the Vulcan forum on Delphi. I was not impressed with the Delphi forum because its focus is broad and owning a Nomad I wanted a forum specific to the bike I owned. What I found at KawaNow was a dysfunctional family that I can call my own. I don't care if you are a jock, pimp, a drunk, dyke or even a "ho"; you ride a Nomad and with that we share a kinship. I think it is great when we welcome a new member and you can dot the map with pushpins from all the places we all come from. My own feeling hearing about the bashing on VROC is that some people are jealous of us with our Nomads and secretly lust for a set of hard bags, but are too proud to admit it.

Thanks for the suggestion Idaho!!! I would of posted Nico's fav group hug (but that is not appropriate for this side of the forum..IF ya know what I mean....)

Maybe,,,,here pop in to ask a QUESTION and you GET Tons of WELCOMes and a answer. THE REAL TURN off was whe a FEW on VROC(not the VROC GROUP) TRASHED the day light out of a Noob for posting a sig pic,,, (I think he a KawNow member now) The few racked him through the coals,, Guess a few sh*t stirers start alot of crap....some people love to stir up the sh*t. had a few in the Sabre forums as well.Guess some people need to get a life.. I am EXTREAMLY HAPPY to be a MEMBER here....Love the wise ass comments that thrown out in fun, LOVE the info...... HOPEFULLY I will get to MEET some of you one Day,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,THANKS TRIP for a GREAT SITE!!!!! Rich

I went and checked out the thread and what I found interesting was that they didn't like the rules or guidelines. Funny thing is, we don't have any rules about the truly important things, like number of times a question can be asked or what you can put in your sig line. When I found this site, what I really liked was that you didn't have to be an expert about bikes in order to feel comfortable, and that aspect hasn't changed. I think that speaks more about the character of the members than it does any "higher ups".

i am thankful for vroc, it helped me find this group. as previously stated, it is comfortable for me, i am no bike expert nor mechanic, but with ya'lls help im slowly learning. just want to thank everyone that chimes in and lends advice.

I have been on this forum for some time now. I know I have asked some obvious or even stupid sounding questions but I have never felt like I was being judged in any way! I have never met anyone of you guys in person but I feel as if I know you. Thanks for all the help and keep the faith Trip - you're doing a great job!!!

One nice feature that proboards has is the ability to link to other threads. When a new member asks a question thats already been asked we don't say "go look at the old posts" We can even provide a link if we want to help them get their question answered even quicker.

I have found that on a couple of other sights, they give you a brisk brushoff and tell you to look in the archives. How do you expect newbies to learn anything if they are treated like that.Not everybody knows everything about their bikes , thats probably why most of us here.

Say what you want - I still think Beezer's the BomB on whole wide world motorcycle Internet...! And he only exist in our world.

Not seriously now, I posted a VROC ride on this site, and didn't then, nor do I know feel I shouldn't have. We're about bling and riding... Screw the politics

Do you think my new bag rails make me look fat?

Well I'm off to another forum to stir up some crap. Then I'll come back over here and pretend innocence (had to look it up).

[bobt]

I'm a newbie so please don't trash me too bad. But i just love this site man. ;)
