  1. For a start, you don't have to open a 'nice topic' as you put it. You just have to post and all it takes is 5 members to notice how well you're posting and you're in. You never have to make a topic. There are many reasons why it's like this. To stop inexperienced forum users failing to post links, pics and vids and making a mess of the forum. It allows people to learn the rules, etiquette of the forum, the standard of the forum. It deters people who just want to use the forum to sell. Keeps out the spammers. The list is endless. There's nothing that you can't do in new members that you do anywhere else on the forum other than buy and sell. And if you've come on this forum because you want to sell something then in lue of paying fees via ebay you'll have to be pacient and wait until your validated. TF is somewhat a dictatorship, as it's a private forum, the admin can do whatever they like, they don't have to answer to anyone. Although the admin always discuss what's going on with this forum in the SM (hidden) forum and often ask the regular members. Exactly your problem. The ironic thing is, you could have metaphorically exploded, but if those security checks weren't in place you are at risk of literally exploding. I'm sure you'll complain about it either way.
  2. Don't watch anything but season 1.
  3. So you're denying that the other account was you? Even when the mod did an IP check that showed it was you?
  4. With regards to the bible you get so many people treating it differently. Some people take it as literal text - however when It comes to stoning people who work on Sundays they take that as a metaphor to get round it. And then there's some people who take half literally and the rest metaphorically, the problem with that is they get to choose what content is literal and what isn't to suit them. Also, there's many translation errors in the bible, some words that don't have a literal translation so someone had to decide what words to use (which will later be interpreted differently by different people). To fully understand what the the bible is saying you have to learn to read it in it's original language. Also, sometimes the bible gets additions like some bibles have been changed from 'stoned' to 'stoned to death' for clarity. Too many people have had their say in it.

    The Lost Thread

    I actually watched it on the lost website, but then I was watching that at exactly the same time as I was missing the 3rd one. But i'm all caught back up now. And it's fair to say I have no idea what's going on.
  6. They were amazingly awesome though. I have 6 pairs to sell when i get back home

    Lazy Pistons

    Don't do anything mentioned above until you do this. Undo the tpa until your pads retract fully, then pull the lever and see if you still have a problem (the level will pull right back to the bars, that's ok) then simply undo the clamp bolts and set the cylindars closer to the rim. Lazy pistons 90% of the time are a result of having the brakes set too far out and the riders has compensated by too much adjustment at the lever.
  8. Congrats! And even bigger congrats for being a wizz on the bmx. No really though, imagine if got one of those coins in change, no one would believe you designed it.
  9. According to Steve at Heatsink bikes, it's exactly the same compound. But from what I've read I can't see how that can be the case unless people are suffering greatly from something similar to the placebo effect.
  10. Red means it's a hot topic, and if it's in a bold colour (not translucent) there a post in there you haven't read. Text in the bubble shows you've replied to that thread. Goto the little arrow next to the 'forum' button, and goto settings, then click on the 'forums' tab.

    Tartybikes 2010 Team

    They said they were looking for at least one from each category. I think they'll end up with around 12+ riders.

    The Lost Thread

    So I sit down ready to watch today and when they showed the recap clips I realized I'd missed an episode, turns out there was two episdoes on the first night and I didn't realize! Blame in on the cider.

    Free Paypal?

    Regardless of whether the email is real or not (looks real to me) paypal transactions within the country have been free for a while. So long as you have a direct debit set up, or already have the funds in your account there is no fee. If you have it set up to go through your card there's still fee. Because of this is was also changed to give you the option of whether the sender will be fe'ed or the receiver.
  14. Amazing I had to think that one over for a while till i got it.
  15. Humm, i would. It depends if it's something you could do without for a couple of weeks. Or is it something you need to ride? If it's something you need asap I wouldn't bother.

    Yoga...

    Anyone else or just me?
  17. After the last wave of complaints he seems to have got his act together and is sending stuff out quickly. Not heard a complain for a while now.

    Holey shit that a big blue face.

  20. Seeing as though the FAQ and the Wiki discussion are accessible from the first page via the links in the 'trials chat' box, is there any chance the big blue sub-forum box (at the top of the page when you click on 'trials-chat') could be removed? It's not at all necessary as no one uses the wiki discussions apart from one or two people and the FAQ's aren't used either (2008 still on the first page). So it seems pointless for a big box to take that much space up on trials chat when the links are accessible from the first page.
