old_boy_rider Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Heres just a though that ran through my head while reading the thread by chasthetrialsrider "what can i do" - There must be plenty of newbies to trials looking for others to ride with, either other newbies or more experienced riders who they can learn from. If the newbies are not validated yet they cannot post on the rides section either. So would a seperate "riding mates wanted" section, accessible to all be a good idea ?

Synergy Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 in theory it could be good but it practice it might get a lot of spam, also ye old trials forum doesnt change that often although it did recently so i wouldnt get hopes up but nice idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if someone is looking for a ride they could just post it in NMC. It saves peoples time going through a whole topic to see if there is anyone they can ride with at a certain time, and going through the topic everyday in fear that they might miss a ride...see where i'm going with this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one of the mods could post a sticky at the top maybe? EDIT: Actually I don't think that would be that great after all, but maybe it would work?

Nuke Bowel Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 The thing is, it shouldnt be too long until you can use the big boys forum. If you post well etc you will be validated in no time.Second that. But one of the mods could post a sticky at the top maybe?True Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
