However, when I come on the chat, I read all new posts. Every time. And I am so very impressed with taking the time to read a posting consisting of the words "post count". I really enjoy reading the posts from the wildly variant (or is that deviant...) individuals on the chat. I have never blocked anyone's posts (though I'll admit I've been tempted). I've never even commented about posts like that. But I do feel it is a waste of my time, and probably others' as well. But if that silly little number is what makes someone's day, well, I'll feel a little sorry for them, but I won't be the one to demand they stop. If it becomes too obnoxious, I will exercise the block option, regrettably, and will not know if that indivual eventually had something of really earthshaking importance to say. He'll be in the bit-bucket. Oh well... |

Karl, I don't think Richard was referring to you. I am betting that he was referring to the recent post-count "war" we had a few months ago with a couple of list members posting comments unrelated to the Segway to boost their count. (And they acknowledged that that was what they were doing in the forums.)

My two cents
Being new to SC, I've noticed the "puns", "inside jokes", the "whatever-you-want-to-call-it", etc. I think it should be expected. I look at myself and think " I'm joining a site that's been around since '02-'03. Some members have been here since then. I don't play polo. I don't live in the States where Segs are prevalent. I don't have any friends who own a Seg or who are on the site. Some "jokes, puns" I get, some I don't. In other words, I don't care. I don't care about "cliques", "puns", "jokes", or "pos rep". What I do care about are my 2 i167s that I bought from a fellow Canuck when my wife squashed my plans to buy a new i2. They were bought for $1200 less and I got 2. All so I could be part of an amazing experience, like all of you. I care about finding out as much as I can about the Segway transporter and anything related to it or the Smart Motion technology. I care about getting any questions I have answered by members of this site but also relying on myself to find the answers as well because poeple on the net don't know everthing. I care about gliding, not peacock feathers. It's as simple as that.

Learn to change batteries and be ready for your life to change! ps - I'll also point out that you've chosen to do what I recommend to everyone a long time ago. Buy two Gen 1's. You have a great supply of spare parts for the long term, and it cost you alot less than a Gen 2! |
