If people didn't repeat topics over and over on these boards, there would be no new threads. Get over it.
Just part of being in a forum. It happens. Look the other way. |
Some topics do warrant being brought up from time to time. Technology changes so might the opinions and insights.

OP: Come to think of it, reading the title before entering a thread would eliminate the terrible disappointment you feel when you find yourself seeing the same topic repeated. Of course, you'd rarely click on a thread ever again, but that's fine with me. Answering the same question every week is why I have such a high post count. I hear there are some nice benefits and schwag awards if you pass Pcad in post count.

Do clipless pedals make you faster? How much time do you spend in the tops/drops/hoods? How fast do you need to be to race? What's better: weight or aero? Is rotational mass real? |

Maybe so, but to do that you may never be able to ride again. You will have to be attached to your PC (or Mac.). I feel like a lout on there with only 4500 or so posts:p.

OP - next time use the search feature. This topic has been mentioned plenty of times within posts.
|
:lol: I think this is the funniest thread I've seen in a while!
I'm going to start giving people stink eye when they comment on the weather from now on, too. It's so been done. And haven't they looked out the window recently? |

To the OP, you or I are not here long enough to be a condescending A-hole. Leave to the people who are good at it on here. No names mentioned.
Now, which bike should I buy? |
I just did a breif search. All I found were some cooties, stray hair and a skidmark...

I've always thought that they should write some kind of script so that the first two posts of any new thread will automatically generate. The first will be some a-hole that says "Do a search," "Google is your friend," or the classic link to the search page." The second post will be the omnipresent doosh that calls the OP a troll. Or posts that picture of a the "baby troll."
So an example post could be like this: 1. I am new to cycling, but am the brother in law of a famous Tour de France winner. Should I rely on him for advice? 2. (auto-generated) Learn how to use the search function, dip****. 3. (auto-generated) Don't feed the trolls. This question has been asked a thousand times. Then the discussion could begin once these inevitabilities are out of the way. And the post count of some people would drastically level off, because they would have nothing left to add. |

Post what you want, when you want, and how you want. If it's a repeat, so what. If you don't want to read it, don't. I don't have time to research past posts. Nothing more aggravating than you "bozo the clown types", who don't have a life telling someone, "TO RESEARCH" I aint spell checkn, aint researchn aint doin non e of it..:crash:

I think we should give greater credence to those with a lower post count and those that have been a BF member for a shorter amount of time, because this place undoubtedly makes you more stupid the more involved you get and the longer you have been here.

I don't even bother using this site's search function anymore. :) |
