If it bothers you that much, someone send this thread to my email lisa.l.gove@gmail.com and boot me. This is the third person to complain about what I have written.
I guess you don't want new ppl to join your sport and don't torerate newbies.. what a way to welcome those into the sport ... Hope their are other bike forums!

So basically you pretty much dont' want to follow the rules that you agreed to,

One of them is being respectful.

There are a ton of other bike forums and you are more welcome to join them.

Your claim of not tolerating newbies.. You have come on here and have not been very friendly at all, instead choosing to be a little rude.

I think all of us have been pretty patient with your abuse here. LOL

Perhaps you are right. Maybe this place isn't your cup of tea.

Like any other large and passionate online forum, you will always encounter some differing opinions and negativity.
The person that originally called out Amazon also went on to give you some very good cycling advice.
Indeed.

But her focus is on the negative, not the positive.

I am posting here because of the complaints about your rudeness. I like this thread because I see how people are trying to help and sadly, you aren't very grateful.
I think the one that is whining the most is... the OP.
I see that you don't really like it here but keep in mind, nobody is really forcing you to stay. But you are more than welcome if you follow the rules that everyone follows.

I've been involved in online discussion forums for 29 years. One of the worst things you can do is start posting and tell the regulars they're doing it all wrong.

Or telling the person that runs this forum that even though they agreed to it, they will not follow the rules and if they don't like it they dont' have to post in it...and... " why make a big deal out of it?"

I don't really care if my email is here. And you don't have to POST on MY thread either... if you had any sense... I loathe idiots.

Tried to help, but you are clearly an awful person. And you're about to find out about spambots harvesting email addresses from the internet. Hope you like having an inbox full of scams and ads.

If you are beginner why did you start a thread entitled "Getting back into the saddle"?

In any event, this is not an airport. You don't have to announce your departure. But please fulfill your promise.

Well, judging from her posts, she's a beginner who hasn't started riding yet, doesn't want to ride on roads, but intends to pull a dog on a trailer on a bike tour from Maine to Maryland this summer. And she posted her real name while calling everyone names.

I'm thinking judgment isn't her strong suit.

Just log out. Your account will go dormant.
And by the way, you seem to be the only one on here that is mean... LOL The reason others haven't been is because they follow the rules you refuse to. Because trust me. If I say ON THIS THREAD THAT YOU DO NOT OWN for those who have held back to go for it, they will. LOL
