Monday to Friday, every morning i buy 2 chocolate bars, normally a crunchie and a caramac. In work i normally 2 or 3 hot chocolates a day. At lunch i go get a sandwhich, either Ham & Cheese, Coronation Chicken or Prawn Cocktail, plus a pint of milk and a YumYum. A YumYum being light pastry with icing all around. f**king nicest thing ever. Then, every week my mum gets me a collection of sweets, usually some biscuits and other bits, usually random. For instance, this week i have got some chocolate Hobnobs, Malt Biscuits and 2 packets of mr kiplings chocolate chip cake bars. Weeeeeeeee.

True, although my v works better in the rain.

My XTR front v-brake > any other brake. Fact. Actually, i lie, my front Deore was the best brake i ever had, no flex, solid as a rock, modulation as well as being sharp as f**k. Standard deore pads too. Learn to setup a brake properly and you'll have a perfect front brake without spending 168 great british pounds. Also, a disk is just as un-predictable as any other brake, if not more. My friends disc will work one day, not the next, half work the day after, then be shit hot the next.

Maybe you've been tackled hard a few times, and landed on your head, but please stop typing like a retard.

Not meant to make you laugh, its just the coolest thing on the god damn planet!

Validation occurs on an "as is" basis. If a New Member is seen to be validation worthy, they will get validated, or a Senior will nominate them to be validated in a thread in Senior Member section of the forum (as posted by Mark). Read my edit of my post up one.

Rocket offered lifetime warrenty against anything about 4 years ago. Litterely, you snap/crack the frame, they replace it, no questions asked. They went bankrupt 4 years ago to.

And most other boards don't have an as clean main forum area. Because what we have spread over 5 sections, you have in 1. You must also understand that the average age here on trials-forum is about 15/16, most of whom think text talk is acceptable, as well as spamming with general immature bollocks and non thought out posts and threads. I'd rather this all be in one section where its not only easier to see people who put the effort in, but also easier to get rid of those who will consistantly 'cause a problem. Also, dont get me wrong, i understand completly what you are saying, but out of 400/500 odd new members, i find it pretty acceptable that only 2 or 3 aren't getting validated when they should. As you say, you would prefer to ride your bike rather then talking about riding your bike, as i'm sure the administrators and moderators do too, hence sometimes some people don't get validated when they should, but instead of complaining, just post more and they will get noticed soon enough. Obviously it isn't acceptable for 2 or 3, but those 2 or 3 must see the bigger picture.

Its at NASS, so er, on NASS dates, and er, the NASS website? Yes you have to pay, think it be 7 or 10 quid, can't remember last year.

President of the most powerful country in the world. I think he could.

You havn't been here long enough to see the chaos that idiots 'cause if they have access to the whole forum straight out the bat. The system is there for a reason, and there is countless demonstrations of when users join and 'cause havoc just in New Members, i would hate to think of the chaos they would 'cause if they had access to everything.

Jesus christ, get a bigger resolution.

Aye, for a set i cant see a problem, its more parts and single maguras, how can one cost 70, but two cost 90.
-
Yes, but no one can be bothered to do anything about it. There is no way it costs more to produce one lever then it does two, and with the size of Magura, i cant really see how 90/100 quid is a justified price for a set either.

Its called having a monopoly. They can do what the f**k they like, and price there products at what ever price they want.

Because he rides good? I rekon he deserves validation because he has a username of 4 letters! The NASS competition is entered on the day. Its not really official, half the people did it partly wasted and/or hung over, the other half trained all season to win, *cough* mannings *cough*.
-
No. I'm not even going to bother explaining why. This system is perfectly fine. Fine that is, if you go about it properly. People have been validated in under 6 hours on numerous occasions, and i would think average validation time if you put effort in is easily 3, maybe 2 days.

You swapped a pavement side rail. What. The. f**k.

A whole feature length hour of my life spent watching how a guy saves a plane which has been over run by snakes. I think not.

+ he types and strings sentances together like a 'tard. Nothing to do with time, you simply aren't putting any effort into any of your posts. You could be here to next year, or the year after, and still not be putting any effort into your posts. Or, you could put effort in, be validated next week, continue putting effort in, and validated happily ever after. Its a simple concept.

You are obviously 100x more mature and intelligent then other New Members, so its best you understand; • For Sale/Wanted/Swap threads are not allowed in New Members Chat • Harassing Admins/Moderators via PM/Email/MSN WILL NOT get you validated any faster. I see you've posted 7 posts, all of which are way more then validation worthy. However, the administrators and moderators are not on all times of the day, so i would suggest posting more then 7 posts to expect to be validated. You must also understand how many people "think" they are worthy of validation, and therefor e-mail the administrators with the same request as yours, therefore one would assume the administrators and moderators simply ignore such e-mails. I have no doubt you'll be validated soon, but try not to get aggravated by the system, its there for a reason, and once you've seen the people the system catches, you will understand.

Don't get a T-Mag. You will regret it. Except for a front disc, it doesn't have anything on a T-Pro. T-Mag rides shit, looks shit, weighs shit, its just generally a bad bike. Get the T-Pro with a better specification.

I don't see Boon complaining about people mentioning his ass in his latest video.
