    Some sort of biker rivalry I suppose. Are we the bloods or the crisps?

    Hmm, well its all very childish but yes they seem to hate anyone who is on here. I had 1000+ posts over there and used to organise a lot of Sunday spins, but as soon as they heard I was the mod over here I was sitebanned. TBH I'd prefer not to encourage slagging of other sites, cant all the children just play nice with eachother??

    they have that on anything that's not related to their own site. Small minded people with small minded ideas....

    Childish...yes! Definitely. While I don't condone forum bashing in any form, I think that Iano gob****e should have been able to come back to defend what he said....if he has the balls. He's not a mod here...no power. See if he's as hard!! I doubt it!

    You didn't miss much. A certain mod from Biker talking sh!te about how great the site is, when anyone with half a brain knows what it's really like!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,469 ✭✭✭weeder


    awh it was deleted before i got that far.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    I've biker.ie stickers on the bike and you might meet others the odd time at traffic lights.

    Met Iano one day on Clonliffe Rd in Dublin, seemed a very nice guy and shook hands.
    But put a person behind a keyboard and they can have a different personality I suppose

    I followed the other thread but I must have missed the end of it, didn't see these posts

    I'm a member too, but I don't bother any more....

    As for meeting the guy...he's probably the nicest person in the world face to face, but on the site, behind the keyboard...he's a dick. I'd like to see if he's as smarmy to my face!!! I doubt it somehow! :rolleyes:

    It was my presence that killed this thread and i should have dealth with it a more proper and professional manner. But i do hate when my site is tarred and feathered by people who do not have the slightest understanding how to run a forum themselfs and bash what they do not understand. Global is not irelands no 1 forum and the very idea of such a remark is aimed at bashing it once again!! To set off a motion of anti global all over again!! I do not allow forum bashing as i find it childish where as your mods have the same understaning as i do. It should'nt matter what forum is up and running as its for the members to enjoy and these silly bar fights over who is bigger and better are for the school yard. I registered here not to kick this off nor to get involved in such chat, i registered here as i was curious. Maybe i may be banned as i am known of who i really am and i won't mind it if it happens either as im very busy running my forum anyway and don't have this type of spare time. But less bashing my site as its childish and so imature!!

    In fairness....you didn't come in here with all guns blazing. You didn't name-call or diss anybody. With all due respect, I doubt it was your presence that killed the thread, but the direction it was going. You have no reason to apologise.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,397 ✭✭✭Paparazzo


    Forum bashing is great fun! In fairness, most people have user names on both biker.ie and boards. I'm sure some on biker rip into boards, then come onto boards when they need info and vice versa.

    I haven't got one on global, but intend to.

    I'm a member on a few of them and I have to say biker.ie is definitely the funniest, and the busiest by a long shot. The global one is just a daisy chain patting each other on the back, IBF is much better than them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    *turns over and goes back to sleep* yawn.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 247 ✭✭corkimp


    well can't comment on biker as not on it yet. as for ibf +global - both have good and bad points but I enjoy them both (i admit i have fun on global more as of late). but I wouldn't bash any of them - it's all well and good to say things on a site but face to face - if you wouldn't say it to that person/s/etc in "REAL life" then shut up. simples!

    enough backstabbing and **** in the world without people throwing tantrums. its the love of motorbikes, rides outs and so forth that draw us all together..... who cares where! life is too short - or am i foolish enough to believe in this?!
    *shrugs* each to their own - and each has the right to their opinion. (would be interesting to read the original thread but life goes on)

    Do yourself a favour....DON'T!! Unless you rub the egos of the twats who run it, you won't be accepted and you won't get very far. You seem neutral, stay that way. Good on ya.

    You have no respect for the forum so why would you want to be a member anyway? Just to lurk and do pretty much what you're doing now anyway?

    You don't want to be on the forum as your above statement made that very clear!! You were banned for using the wolpath bug trying to break into the forum and not over your statement above so thats something you were keeping very quite on now was'nt it! Trying to hack into the forum is an instant ban and thats why you were banned mate!! And not over that childish remark made as that had no effect with me!!

    My time here has ended and id like to thank everyone for their input as i found it very interesting! All the best!!

    Wolpath bug??? What drugs are you on???? I'm an ordinary Joe who's into bikes and joined a few sites, and I voiced an opinion here on yours and you banned me for it. Hacking? Bloody hell, that'd be funny if it wasnt so pathetic:rolleyes:

    Reckon he meant biker specific forums, but comparing biker.ie to the motorbike section of boards.ie then yeah biker.ie would be a lot busier!:pac:

    It's an entire website, bit unfair comparing it to one forum. Biker is a decent site, but its not a patch on boards

    Its what these threads invariably boil down to - 'who's got the biggest and best one', when the reality is that no-one cares.

    Mine is HOOOOOJJJJJ btw and I have a 110cc Chinese bike that proves I don't need to compensate for anything...

    This section of Boards often has tumbleweeds blowing through it and most responses to tech questions get a 'OMG dood, sounds serious - ask a proper bike mechanic b4 u diedz' type answer.

    Have a safe weekend on your bikes you crazy buttmonkeys;)
