Did they leave or die?

blink · October 15th, 2011, 07:45 PM

Maybe not die..but you know what I mean

I really wonder why some of the older members I've seen (looking at posts back from the beggining) why they don't post anymore,

Pointless post, but uhmm im bored

Live2ride · October 15th, 2011, 07:58 PM

Good question; many of our largest helpers to the ninjette community left abruptly.

blink · October 15th, 2011, 07:59 PM

I know! It's sad!

Live2ride · October 15th, 2011, 08:05 PM

I'd step up and help but I don't know any more about our bikes than what I learned from ninjette....which is a lot.

Yasko · October 16th, 2011, 11:52 PM

They're out enjoying there bikes this time of year.

alex.s · October 17th, 2011, 02:42 PM

they left because they were tired of hearing what blink has to say

<3

Fly'in Ninja · October 17th, 2011, 03:17 PM

maybe moved on to other bikes? other interest?

rockNroll · October 17th, 2011, 03:28 PM

Many of the newer members are very annoying to those of us who actually know what's going on. Our ranks have thinned while throwing e-hands to the air and "walking away."

dang blasted n00bs!

I know I miss CC's humor. Haven't seen much of BlackWidow either.

dubojr1 · October 19th, 2011, 12:26 PM

She is back. I didn't know CC left?

dubojr1 · October 19th, 2011, 12:28 PM

Yep...CC's last activity was on 9/27/11.

We miss you man, come back!

backinthesaddleagain · October 19th, 2011, 01:02 PM

Wow, RCeezy too, august.

Bill N · October 19th, 2011, 01:05 PM

I'm one of the old codgers that's still around. I view this forum and the other Kawi forum every day. Been a long time that I've seen anything worth commenting on the other forum while this one still has some good threads. I think the typical trend for a new forum is that at first there is alot to be learned from others. As time goes by topics get repeated and members just fade away due to lack of interest. Grumpy old Bill

backinthesaddleagain · October 19th, 2011, 01:34 PM

^^ pretty good observation. on 600rr.net its 3 questions: what oil to use? when to change my oil? what tires to use?

Yea, you forgot to add "Should I upgrade to this bike (here)?"...

+1 Bill

I will also add that, as far as me posting Michigan Group Rides, Ive grown tired of wasted my time due to no interest. I still keep in touch with Sugarbear and Rage42, the first 2 Motorcyclist friends I ever met and was from this Forum!
Not many new Michigan 250R riders know about this forum it seems. That is my guess, but Ive since joined a local Sportbike Club around here and only check in this forum from time to time!
Ive met afew girls around with 250R's here and told them about this website.

yeah, thats true

ally99 · October 20th, 2011, 05:18 PM

The posts aren't as meaningful/insightful as they used to be. More members and more worthless threads means fewer old timers post. There's not much to draw our interest.

headshrink · October 21st, 2011, 06:00 PM

I'm still here

Reddoak · October 24th, 2011, 02:14 PM

It's not that there is less to talk about, it's just that most of the important technical stuff has already been said. You can only talk about the exhausts that fit a bike for so long...

sombo · October 24th, 2011, 05:52 PM

That's why we should start sharing our wonderful riding stories........ that is if you have any. Me, I have none, I'm sorry, mostly commuting and such.

noche_caliente · November 3rd, 2011, 07:48 AM

I'm here - just too busy with kids and scouting to post very much... and I haven't ridden since August
