JT!

I've spent a couple of mins on a bike that had one. 1 day later it blew up.

Didn't count. Didn't ride away. Good try though!

I do.

...zero.

I've got exactly the same chance as you.

I think the whole humiliation pic thing stopped after nude fatpants and the danny k pic.

Yeah i get told that all the time, it's kind of an obvious comeback. I don't want my pips coverd by some shitty SM sign. I know, that's why i used the word 'direct'. Sm's do have an influence on the forum, but not in a direct way like the mods do.

But that happens now. Yeah, pretty much. But seriously, i was kind of aiming it towards SM's. No offense to SM's but mods actually do something directly that has a big impact on the forum, and leaving that decision down to regular members is a bit dicey. Plus if SM's were voted in, and admins pick new mods from the SMs the regular members would be somewhat be picking the mods anyway in an indirect way. But like i said it doesn't need to be, i'm just not being incredibly anal, it would just be a bit of fun, keep things from being samey.

You're missing the point though. Does tf need a voting system for the SM, no. But would it be a fun way to keep people a bit more active on the forum? Maybe, maybe not, maybe it's a shit idea. But something like this needs to be done. The last time anything changed around here was trials media and classified been split, and trials-tube. There just isn't enough going on. No fun competitions, not annual forum events. The last big video comp was 2006. TF doesn't need any of these things, it can just sit here as a "forum in existence for the discussion of a sport involving people with little seats and no gears on their bikes" but that on it's own isn't going to hold people for very long.

I always compare the way TF should be ran (with regards to SM and mods) with how the government is ran. If people like them, and they're doing a good job, they stay, if they aren't, they leave, can you imagine what would happen if that once they were in, they in for good. Comps was just one example of something to spice up tf. I'm sure there's another 101 things that could be done.

I think tf is getting a little tedious now that it's become a very popular site, TF gets tweaked here and there and after a few years of that it's become a well tuned site and most people are pretty content with it, the phrase 'don't fix it if it ain't' broken' is thrown around a lot. But because of that i think people are just getting bored and not really hanging round the site, and only come on when they want something specific. TF does have official comps* every now and again, but don't really draw in any attention. The last photo comp, i don't ever remember it finishing. And the trials-shack comp (not strictly TF i know) didn't get one entry. So more stuff kinda like that would make the place have more staying power. People could even win jpeg trophies to put in their sigs. Could even have things like 'Best of 2008' at the end of the year, like best, funniest or stupidest quote etc. I said this a few times, but i personally don't agree on the way new senior members are picked, perhaps if that was in the hands of us regular members in some big vote where you could vote in and vote out SM's a couple of times a year it would spice up TF a bit. Lets face it the only thing that keep politics even slightly entertaining is the elections - it'd be a fairer way to do it too. Just stuff like that is a bit lacking round here. * By which i mean comps ran by the amins and not some member opening a comp for people to win a mars bar.

Well it's still shopped...

Got a printer?

link?

Finish with her.

Well, wouldn't neciserally be that design, that's just an example. It's not anything i feel strongly about, was just wondering.

What, a joke in the sense that "haha JT doesn't get this joke, i'm a funny man!" or "the whole waiting for her to turn 16 is a joke, i'm not going to bother waiting".

Firstly how old are you now? Secondly, what the hell are you doing with a girl you call you're girlfriend but have no intention of having any real future with?

I did that for my GF when it was her birthday. It doesn't work. "I'm gald you're here for my birthday, what did you get me?"

No shadow either.

That's very true, but they're disappearing fast. I'd guess in two years there won't be any left.

Most people say learn to trackstand then learn to backhop. But i think it's better to learn how to hop up steps first.

If it's yours, or you're posting for a friend then it's not allowed. But if you've found a good deal and want to share i'd guess it's ok.

Is it me or isn't the file there?
