I'll admit that I have done this just once to get a hold of Pauloliver to buy my cranks off him due to the fact my msn had been done and I cudn't get ahold of him on the members buy/sell. And I don't post things like: y ain't i being validated.......if you read the topic title. Excuse me and you think I haven't got used to it already!!!! And yes I have been following guidelines for over a year now until this day and to honest its p*ssing me off! I can understand that mods don't want c*ckheads in the members using text talk and posting crap like this, but can't you at least see I'm not one of these people (or never used to be until I became a rebel and broke the guidelines ^_^) Jack

Yea this was my point, that I have made many more what I think are 'quality' posts and still.....no validation. I can understand the mods are very busy, but I think 1 year is enough to validate one person don't you or is that being unreasonable. But to be honest I think I have a percetly good reason to moan and whinge and complain. If you find in one of my posts that I have been using text talk or said something stupid (not counting this topic becasue that was the whole point in this topic) then yell at me and hate me for ever (Y) Jack

Woo do you reckon this could get moderators attention :D ......but then not much does so I'm not gonna put a bet on it...... Actually thats a point, do you reckon that the topics you start and the number of replies could affect how fast you get validated? (Y) I'been doing this quite a lot, because I'm having to visit friends to post thngis on buy/sell to get my bike built so B) And my brothers bike also.

Might as well.........but I might as well try to bring myself to validators attention rather than sitting here waiting to get validated because I've not been validated for what I've done so-far. Jack (Y) :D B) :o :P :D :D :D (N) (just to make my point that I'm not a happy bunny)

Good point........But surely there is something we can do........becasue the only way in which we can bring ourselves to moderators attention is by posting these crap topics and then they shout us down for doing it?! Jack

I think that there should be some system in which pre-members who have posted over a certain amount or have been on for a long time could bring their posts to the moderators attention, because otherwise we may all just be lost ina big pile of pre-members that will never get validated no matter how many decent posts we do (Y) Jack

Exactly my point lads (Y) I don't want the moderators to get all angry at me for breaking guidelines and things........I just want to get validated becasue I think that over 200 posts has been quite a considerable contribution........Why can't you help instead of having a go at me for the reasons that I cant post this rubbish that I wouldn't need to post if you did help. Jack

No problem then B) Woops, got a little fired up Jack :o I now this, its just that I think that I have contributed to the forum and some people they really do post a lot of rubbish in the forum which everybody asks. i.e: which is better: mod or stock (Y) I haven't exactly posted rubbish every post! Thats what I'm trying to say, and as you can see I use punctuation and grammar correctly. Could moderators actually look at my case and come to some agreement instead of telling me I haevn't read the guidelines correctly. Jack :D

Thnkayou Tom_Wilko!!!!! (Y) you see my point Cheers Jack

I have got used it!!!!!! for a whole year!!!!!! cheeky git. And yes, it is very annoying. I have read the guidelines and that is why I'm p*ssed off because until now I've not broken any of the guidelines!!!! I'm just bringing my case to the moderators attention because its been wayyyyyy tooooooo longggggg Jack (Y)

I've been a member for over a year now and I had a post total of just over 200 in under 5 months and then my bike was stolen and took me 5 months to get a new one and to start posting again.....My post count has been reset so it only looks like I've posted something like 5 posts. I don't think any of my posts have been out of order or stupid compared with some of the posts on here. I saw a new member that had been validated in about two days yesterday :o What the hell am I doing wrong? Please validate me becasue I'm sick of having to get members to post in other sections for me!!!!!!! (Y) B) Jack :D

OOOOO....looks rather like a beast :) ^Yea a bit of an overdose though....maybe black chain protector? Or wait for it to turn balck anyways........ (Y) Jack

yea, I've tried tarty bikes but they're even more expensive. I've also had a look at Triton cycles and they're the same as the selectbikes bar's price. I think I might just have to work more this hols to buy the beasts......will be worth it me thinks. Had a wizz on some a while back and felt so nice compared with my onza bars and stem.......feel horribly narrrow (Y) Anyone know of any similar bar and stem combos that are about same height and length? Cheers Jack

Crikey. I never really wear a helmet, makes you wonder how the sallest of things can really screw you up bad ay. :) But finally, I'm off to buy a new Giro tommorow :) I've been close to hitting my head on sharp pointy things, but never quite done it.............first time for everything though I guess (Y) Go give your helmet a big hug :) Jack :) :)

Hiyas Riteo, been looking for Zoo! bar and stem for a while now, and the cheapest place I can find them is on selectbikes for 65 squid for the pair......had a look on tartybikes and they're 70 squid for the pair.......anyone know of any cheaper place that has escaped my web searching??? (Y) Also, if anyone has any second hand they could sell me id be grateful.....my msn addy is on card Cheers Jack
