Isn't it odd?......
 

Isn't it odd?...... That if a female posts with a problem...she will get 3-4 pages of responses....and if a guy posts with anger...controversy and an attempt to start a 'pissing match'..he too shall get 3-4 pages of responses. Yet for the 'Average Joe' who posts with an issue...he gets 50+ 'Reads'...and very few if any responses....then is chastised for making a repost when all he wants is assistance. But his post just falls to the bottom of the list...or completely drops off into the vast archives of this forum. Helping the female is nice...though some treat it as a flirting/dating site....responding to an angry..controversial or 'pissing match' post is nice...as long as you chose to argue with a virtual/cyber person. But I have noticed that as of late...those truly needing answers..support..help...etc.. Are being pushed aside...:no: Tell me I am wrong?.. Can't be done can it...as truth is the truth...:shrug:

That has some validity to it but allow me to give my thoughts. In many posts seeking help the original poster is actually seeking help. You or someone will help him he will apply the advice and he's back on the road. This happens a lot so no need for 4 pages. If its a woman then yes it becomes a social event. Can't blame a young scooterist for trying. If he argues with sound advice then more of us will chime in instead of just looking to make sure he got a decent answer. We will let them know that poster x is right and they should listen we do enjoy arguing as I think it helps to think about things we know and expands our understanding even it the OP never gets it.

I understand what you are getting at though and yes we need to try as a forum to be always helpful no matter who or what the person in need is

Awesome..and tx :clap: I do the same thing for most of the time it's a newbie..and they end up losing faith in the incredible and helpful knowledge that this forum posses...:tup: for you....

+1 :clap:

+1 as well...:clap:
@ Rob...+1 also...:tup:

She wasn't insulted or ridiculed she didn't want to be a member of this site she thought he info was stolen. She was logged into the other site this morning. I thought she was you (apparrently erroneously) I apologized seems like its all over. There was no insulting here if there was copy and paste the event here so we can be sure to never do it again. The whole thing I described above happened on the other site.

Perhaps I'm the exception, but for whatever reason my very first thread on here is still going and it has 14 pages.

Hi Glenn

I agree heartily and will work on my attitudes but, I think the words are "Physician heal thyself"

There is a whole Christians are stupid tirade in that thread. There are days when you rampage through the whole forum nastily. Any way I do agree and hope you actually mean it.

on some other forums there are few participants.
there are one or two guys who really do know everything and so you get an expert answer
with pictures and diagrams every time.but the active community is so small there is rarely any good discussion.on scootdawg sometimes the discussion and personalities get in the way of answers, but that is what makes this forum different and fun and irritating and what keeps people coming back.even some who talk bad about us elsewhwere, cant stay away.
we're like a happy little train wreck.
