Hey...dun you guys notice something lately? This forum is getting quiet and a lot of us are always flaming each other. Be it his skills good...my skills good....all of us are still fellow bikers what. Come on...there is always a mountain higher than the other.(Yi shan hai you yi shan gao) Think we better stop things war thingy for good ok? Come on guys.....majority of us are already 20 and above liao. Dun you think it is a little old enough to think before our actions already?

I am TA150. But now changed nick liao... Cheers... -
i agree with you on this issue. just take a look at the storm riders forum. there are no flaming and personal attacks.
those people are mature and talk about bike related topics only.
yes, the majority of those in racetrack are above 20, but they do not have the maturity of a 20 year old
to conclude, the people here will not change. they will still contine to spit obscence words and flame fellow bikers. if you do not like this style, you can try the storm riders forum. -
but dun you all also agree that there are a lot of new people coming in to start flaming??? those nicks like never see before one....Originally posted by roger:i agree with you on this issue. just take a look at the storm riders forum. there are no flaming and personal attacks.

perhaps those are existing users using another nick. to stay anonymous or for what purpose i don't know. in overseas forums, there's this well-known practice of "trolling", where you provoke the other people by irritating them. doesn't matter who makes sense or not. the aim of the trolls are to get people angry for no reason. beginning to see that being done here, and people falling for it. something as banal as whose bike is better is typical troll material.

there's no control in public forums. all we can do is to curb our baser emotions and not fall into the trap of fighting back meaningless flames.

Hey guys, know what? its not happening just here, even over at the Chit Chat forums and some others, there are new nicks which appear out of no where with little posts and they are starting to post racist/religious/nonsense subjects. I am quite certain they are either the work of one person, or a few of the same group.
I am not surprised. With the revelation that there ARE terrorist activities in Sg, and religious extremists all surfacing, we are bound to see some monkeys (monkey see, monkey do).
Like I said in the Chit Chat forum, the best we can do is to simply ignore their posts, do not even respond. Let their posts sink by itself, or let them talk among themselves. Just don't fall into their trap and start flaming each other, that is exactly what they want us to do!

frens we were once and we'll always be...

yeah in the end we're on the losing end when we lose our cool. no point getting angry. if someone else has a differing opinion, he or she is entitled to think what he or she wants. getting angry would only harm your health... can get stroke you know... last of all, world peace.

This might be one of the reason ..... but what i think is that lesser posting is due to the IRC #racetrack ... who would like to wait for answer where they can get answers directly from IRC rite

Or you guys could migrate to another forum i.e. set a forum with www.ezboards.com; then you can have moderators, administrators and even different forum categories in one community, e.g. buy/sell, chit/chat, bike help, etc.
With moderators and administrators, flaming, etc can be reduced. I'm using ezboard for one of my community and it's quite reliable but above all, it's free.
Just a suggestion. -

flaming is part and parcel of most public forum. however i believe that most of us are mature enough to know that flaming contributes nothing to the bikers.
as for new nicks coming in to start a flaming war, i think if the people in the forum are clever enough, they will ignore those fools. -
LOL! exactly!Originally posted by token ring:kaozzz... u sound like.... Sandra Bullock!!! !

It could be useful because over at ezboards, you can actually set up a community with boards of different categories; we can have a board for newbies to post and a board where only the more "seasoned" members can post (it can be done) i.e. restricting newbies from posting there. So once the newbies in the newbies section seem to be friendly, or you guys find that they are good guys, we can assign them rights to post in the actual board itself.Originally posted by Ah^Huat:Come on lar....you migrate here....migrate there....the trouble will still stay one leh..only method is tat we think first b4 we set our fingers to work and start typing.
Just trying to be helpful...
