You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Man it's like a never ending loop on here at times with the same threads over and over. Would it not just be easier to have permanent thread titles that people could post the same stuff under. My own starting list would be:
1. What tyre for...
2. Superstar wheels - any good?
3. Superstar pedals - any good?
4. DH armour - laugh at people who wear it at trail centres
5. What brakes...
6. Mini DH bike for UK riding...
7. South american urban DH cam thread
8. LIDL thread
There could also be a 'Tell me about____________' thread
and
a general 'PSA______________ ' thread (which sould be seperate to the LIDL thread)
TJ should of-course also have his own permanent thread where people can ask questions about absolutely anything in the universe and expect a simple but catagorical 1-line response within 32 seconds of asking. 😀
Anything else could be entered under a miscellaneous thread.
Please add any more thread titles as required under this theme.
9. We should have a FAQ thread
Why I do/don't need a car 🙂
Try over on XDA they are really hard on you if post a question thats been asked before.
I think it's about time for a 'where does your username come from?' thread...
There should be a DILLIGAF/S / WGAF/S thread
And a load of BATTLE threads too of course.
BTW stop bullying poor TJ.
Could we have a thread to dump all the uselss unfunny remarks from people who wade in with a derisive comment, usually having failed to read the first post properly?
A "have your daily whinge about the most obscure things you can think of" thread, would be useful for a lot of people.

20. brant is a ****
Bike tatoos
Brant broke into my house and killed my goldfish in Taiwan time, but the fish refuse to die and now walk the earth as living finned zombies killing all life as they go and spreading pestilence and famine in their wake, while they suck people eyeballs in through their gills and excrete them in the form of raspberry-flavoured jelly babies.
Man it's like a never ending loop on here at times with the same threads over and over.
Aaw bless!

Stackoverflow have quite a handy feature that brings up related, already posted topics (with links) as you type in the name of yours. Makes it pretty clear to see if something has already been asked!
with the same threads over and over
I'm guessing that's a bit like double needle top stitching?
A whinge about people asking repeat questions thread? We need one of those.

38. This weeks Top Gear
For all the Jezza-haters to get their weekly fix of moaning on and on about how they don't like someone they've never met and only know from an on-screen persona that may or may not be anything like he is in real life
39. Why do people drive in the middle lane on the motorway?
Would I still be allowed my 'im bored on a sunday evening' thread? If not I'm not buying into this thread.
BTW - Where does your user name come from Yeti? Are you really that hairy? 🙂
his surname is darcy and he was quite deadly at university emma, you should know this by now!
'To the nob in the bmw / on the road bike / in the baggy shorts in xxxx earlier'.
I love these threads, there such sweet little displays of pent up anger and frustration. Invariably they said nothing at the time and come on here to vent what they were too slow or too scared to say, and allude to previously attained skills in a martial art had it got physical. Sadly these poor souls get derided by all, and probably end up taking it out on the wife / dog / children when they get home. More please! In fact, a whole forum dedicated to these sort of rants, not just around biking, but everything in life! One place where people can come to air these grievances. And then maybe, just maybe, bad mr audi / bmw / road biker or whatever, you'd actually know where to come on the interweb for your dressing down when you nearly knocked off that lonely IT geek furiously pedaling that bike that didn't even have any ****in gears...
<whispers it softly>
nothing yet about any 'Orange 5' permanent thread titles??? Surprising!
14. Economics and a "GAS Prices WTF" thread

Phil??? Wtf are you on about or are DD and yeti one and the same?
To be fair to the place the mods have tidied up a bit lately, haven't seen too many 'I'd knock her back doors in' threads of late and I have to be honest, I don't really know what that actually means either but I can probably guess.
I can show you?
Feel free but be warned, I've had a big dinner which included a lot of onions which will make me gassy from both ends in around 5 minutes time....
I assure you Emma, I am not part of some trinity with those two. I am guilty of answering the same question twice with the same answer.
Sorry Phil/DD have I missed something or am I being really thick? I really don't know what you are on about?
ooh kinky 8)
It's just Weti and Philly doing their tag team forum bullying. 🙂

sorry emma, yeti is in fact an account set-up by the mods, they gave the log-in to DD, jamie, binners, barnsleymitch and my-sexy-self. we're the only people they could trust to be sensible with officially sanctioned use of a multiple log-in. as you can see by the persona we've created the mods are very pleased 🙂
93 outing someone from the classifieds for being dodgy/not sending the item I bought quickly enough/not sending the item at all/ not sending the item they described/not sending a reply to my 22 emails about them not sending my item within 12 hours of me paying for it*.
(*delete if not applicable)
My head hurts and now I'm upset that yeti is not actually real. I think I had a furry girl crush on him and now I just don't know what's real and what's not anymore . I'm going to bed to sob into my pillow 🙁
*Sob*. 😐
