Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Dont post topics like this.Also dont take too much of an example from the full members section.Look at the thread at the top of new members called 'Mikes tips to Validation' or something along those lines.

Krisboats Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 But you may prefer observedtrials.net -- An American trials site, may be more to your liking.are there any canadian trial forums?!?!?!Did you have a look? Its got people from all over on it, including canada. We have a few canadians who say hello in here from time to time as well.As for getting validated quicker... theres a help section at the top of the page, it tells you in there.

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Because you havent been validated.To get validated you need to post helpful things (perhaps make a guide for other members that hasnt been done already). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone seen my shoe? Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 You pick, what do you know that others may not.Im not going to guide you through validation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Sheehan! Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 If you complain about not getting validated it will never happen. Just try to be helpful to other people, spell well and most of all, be patient! It doesn't happen overnight, but it will happen if you follow the guidelines.

RR_Trials Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 This topic wont help, but defiantly use the *spell check*, trust me i know what people on here may get like 'if u rite lyk dis'.Post helpful information on other peoples threads and don't make 5000 different threads on things just for the sake of starting a thread.EDIT: Wow 1st time i did not get corrected for any unintentional spelling mistakes.

sundance Posted June 2, 2007 Report Share Posted June 2, 2007 Mate i have been a pre member for months and for some reason cannot get validated, this is my 3rd account now and stil am not validated it is a joke, i never write in text language or swear or be offensive, i also never spam any threads or post silly comments. Im 19 years old and mature enough not write stupid childish comments about anything and an certainly no newbie to internet /computer/forums and have been riding for almost 5 years now so am certainly no newbie to trials either and do not seem to be able to get validated. Someone i know (a very good rider that everyone knows of) somehow managed to get validated in like a few days i think i remember him telling me, is that because he wrote up repots on things nobody else has? No its not his posts were simple ones like saying hi and well done on peoples vidios etc as the majority of peoples posts are. Is it because his forum name was his actual name and someone reconised him and thought i like his riding lets validate him? I dont know its not for me to say but does make you wonder.All you can do is post away and hope someone sees you and/or reconises you as an alright kind of person (or good well known rider that they personally like) that will bring good to the forum and not a childish kid that wants to waste everyones time. As for writing a report on somthing noboy else has already done, i say lol, there are already reports on everything and anything you want to no just use 'search' you will find loads of reports on same thing where people have reposted or even if there is no info on forum there is without a doubt info on anything you need somewhere on iternet. Personally I dont agree with the validation system i believe everyone should be full member and childish kids/spammes and time wasters should be banned rarther than other way around as it is now (because isnt that a mods job?) Another reason i dont agree with the validation system is-what if you just want to sell a bike? You cant do it because you are not full member lol its a joke. How do some of the full members get validated? Some of they are really immature and childish and post silly waste of time comments yet they get validated and there are many non-members that are well alright people but dont get seen because there is rarely a topic in non-members that is worth replying to or one that you havent already replied to like 3 times due to others not using search. Anyway back to your original question how can i get validated quicker well, dont write in text talk, dont spam threads, dont post silly pointless posts, dont swear or be offensive etc etc but in the end it all comes down to luck i think weather a mod sees your posts and thinks yeah lets validate them, or not. Like i say i have been on here roughly a year now over my 3 accounts and never got validated STILL!!!!! Sorry for writing so much Good luck geting validated (you may need it, as do i)Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boswell Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 A lot of full members say that new members chat is a lot better than the full members section , just us correct grammer and post up some interesting topics and advice and you should be validated soon enough .

poopipe Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 A lot of full members say that new members chat is a lot better than the full members section thats cos we get shouted at for insulting people in full members chat and you seem to be able to say what you want to new members with impunity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex@Flawless Bikes Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 Look ive been a pre-member for over a year! and you don't see me complaining, so quit your moaning your crazy fool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundance Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 (edited) if you post that long i dont see how you arnt validated, long posts and good spelling is the key, aslong as actually replying to the topic, seriously if you post that long you must get validated well maybe but i still am only pre member, i try to keep short posts usually anyway as i dont want it to go on and on and get people bored of reading it Look ive been a pre-member for over a year! and you don't see me complaining, so quit your moaning your crazy fool! Well maybe that is ok for you but i think you will find almost everyone else in pre members is trying to get validated to post on the main forum. What if you ever want to sell a bike or parts? You cant post for sale on pre member forums its against rules and you shouldnt have to rely on your friends that are full members to sell your parts on your behalf should you. Also what if you ever want to post a video or photos of yourself or friends or a ride, whatever, sure you can post them in pre members but you wont get half the amount of views or feedback on them and they will be lost in like page 6 of the forum in no time at all, at least on full members forum there is specific sections for you to post pics or vids and they stay there longer and are viewed more.

If you make good post and not sh*t one's like is one you will get vaildated soon enough. Edited June 3, 2007 by E6v6i6l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
