Quick poll - all clicks anonymous.

No posts on this - just clicks - running for 3 days to get a reasonable percentage.

Going to log out and stay away for a bit. That'll at least give you guys a rest.

Okay Dave,
Don't get all sentimental and thinned-skinned on us.

This is all just a rite of passage.  I little ribbing on the newbie.

The people that go away are the ones that argue with everyone, or ask for advice then debate that advice.

I see no reason for him to leave, unless he wants to.
He hasn't done anything so irritating or upsetting to warrant being banished.
Where is the choice for "none of the above".

Dave, you need to stay.
You are a talkative sumbitch though, but you haven't said nor done anything to think you need to leave us.
Hang in there trooper and help us all get through this damn long spell we call winter and before we all know it we will be back on two wheels, enjoying the sun and maybe even going to some FJ Rallys!

Yes I don't think anybody has asked you to go - and trust me, if they wanted you to you'd know about it. Search for some posts by a guy called Irishluck and you'll see what happens when you really piss people off.  :good2: I think you're a long way from that stage..

Dave, at first I thought you were asking about the AD on your forks.... If so then yes, remove the useless things. if you mean YOU then no! Many of us here a quirky bunch and I like that. Hell, I got branded the Red Power Ranger (I kind of earned that) and roll with the punches. It is quite normal for us to dish out the shit with large shovels and then watch it hit the fan (http://www.sherv.net/cm/emo/funny/1/shit-hits-the-fan.gif). You have fit in since day one for me. Flying shit is normal, more so as the weather reduces the days some of us cannot ride. Being in SoCal and riding year round I am a very mellow SOB... Remember, you don't have to reply to banter. You are officially invited to stay by the Monkey.  :drinks:

Hell, I find myself searching for other posts you've written, because they always make me laugh out loud.
I don't think anybody here has taken offence. This is a thickskinned bunch, you fit right in!

Hey Dave, imagine what a dull place this would be with 2600 beige members, or worse, 2600 BMW club members, it's colourful contributors like yourself that make it fun and interesting.

Hell, we're home to the "Single most offensive individual on the internet" and that's just what HE says about himself!

I think the usual requirements for being a decent person on any forum apply to this one.

-Search before asking
-Listen to the advice, getting clarification if that's necessary
-Rephrasing the above, being willing and roughly able to learn
-Try to add useful content that's at least grossly related to what brings people to the forum
-Self-edit so that you're not being openly obnoxious, which is what I just did on this line rather than what I wanted to say.  :)

what the fuck, I log on and find this shit.  :morning1:

Dave do what ya want.
It is perfectly fine to express an opinion.

the standing rule is this is a internet campfire , so if you would not say it in person to the guys face then don't say it.

we all get a little cranky when the weather gets bad and we are not riding our fj's.

there was this guy who joined the group who just posted on every subject and drove me crazy as he was a newbie and did not know shit about fuck.
I finally met him at a rally and found him to be a decent guy with a great sense of humor.

so knock off the "butt hurt" crap.

peace out.

Having reviewed some of daves earlier threads and noticed mention of dark places and feeling low.  Well I wondered if this insecurity, if that's the right word is a manifestation of where your at in your head right now. And that's ok.  We all go through shit, I've been there a couple of times and occasionally you need reassurance, validation even, from those around you. 
Keep positive fella, don't worry if you think you may be getting on someone's nerves. The rest of us will show consideration and patience and if they don't then they were not worth the time of day in the first place.
You don't need to go anywhere.  Think positive
