Anyone ever thought.............


Recommended Posts

Anyone ever thought... when they are posting something about a particular rider (any rider that is no one special in mind), that maybe that rider comes into the forum and reads what has been written about them and how they feel? I know of 2 Elite League riders that are regular readers. :roll: oops....because they quoted me when I spoke to them :oops:

Yes I know what you mean Shazzybird, I bet there are more riders who read this forum and other websites than we would imagine. I am sure they want to hear what people have to say about them or particular incidents. On Yahoo groups there are lots of riders and management on there under hidden names, I don't think they should be anonymous though, it would be more fun then :D

I think I'd die of embarrasment if I found out Walshy read the forum lol.(but if you do my phone no is .....ooops shut up k! :clown )

 

I know of a handful of PL riders who do also read the forum though and of a couple who post under aliases(which I fully understand-would you put yourself in the firing line?).

 

You are right though Shazzy, it is well worth remembering when posting

 

I think you should tell these riders to come clean and make things interesting! lol

 

And that from someone else who uses an alias...... :twisted: :clown

I took it that Shazzy was meaning we should bear that in mind when being nasty about them as they are human too sort of thing and could be reading Dekk

Dekks, come on your not really that slow are you ;) Something was written about a rider a couple of threads ago and the rider read what had been said about him and he really took to heart the false comments that had been written about him. No it wasn't me (this time ;) ) but it was commented that I had replied to the thread in question.

 

All I'm saying is be careful what you say, riders are for two hours "our heroes" for the rest of the time they are there own person and can do anything they want to do, like the rest of us !!!!

I think that the riders are big boys and whilst they may occasionally get over-the-top criticism on the forum, they also get plenty of over-the-top praise here too.

 

Anyway, if anything grossly unfair is ever written, its normally quickly followed by condemnation by plenty of other forum members.

oops that's a few more upset ...

 

But to be serious,

 

Statements backed up by facts are preferable

and

I think comments should be limited to those that you would not mind being said about yourself -

and omit comments which you know will hurt or embarrass ...
