torch511 Posted September 23, 2013 Share #102 Posted September 23, 2013 Snazzy graphics, but keep the threads and posts simple. I'm actually liking the forums so far. Special titles like "wrench" for people who work at an LBS (hint hint, I don't want to spam just to get rid of "Fred") Mobile phone integration.

Square Wheels Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share #103 Posted September 24, 2013 Snazzy graphics, but keep the threads and posts simple. I'm actually liking the forums so far. This I will look into. I'm not creative or a graphics person, but I do have some ideas of what I'd like the site to look like. Special titles like "wrench" for people who work at an LBS (hint hint, I don't want to spam just to get rid of "Fred") I was going to "force" titles upon people based on their post counts, but letting them pick their own, as you have, seemed like a better choice. One person commented they were "sophomoric", but I think they just came to slam the site and haven't posted since. All criticism is welcome, it will only make the site better. Mobile phone integration. This is where this software shines. It's built in and works pretty good. It should automatically detect your browser type and display the mobile version if appropriate. I even got it to show the full editor for people on an iPad like Miss Aire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And your take is part of why there have not been more posts...but then it is "your" site and "your" opinion. What exactly have I done to anger you? It has not been, nor is it now, my intention to anger or alienate anyone. You commented on the sophomoric titles, I mentioned you could edit them, as you elected to do, yet you bring this up again. It's not my site, it is our site and we will decide the direction it takes as a group. The post you referenced at the LF has been deleted and bp warned me about starting similar posts - I have obliged. I know everyone can't be made happy - here or there - and I'm not trying, but this seems out of character from the posts of yours that I've read at the LF and I would like to resolve the issue you have with me or this site.

The communication in which the word sophomoric was used was a private message to SW. He chose to bring it public...true he did not identify me but it shows a lack of respect for privacy. I looked in here just to see how things were going and to see if certain people were signed in as I had intended to comment to them. But since I took exception SW's above line you see it as taking pot shots.

Calling people out when they deserve it is one thing. Taking pot shots be it here or the other forum is another and you've been taking random pot shots if you ask me. I'm really starting to think there is something wrong with the water in Wisconsin. Maybe your intent is to aim at once person, but your approach is coming across as against the forum in general and everyone here. That, I take exception to.

I know it's a weird thing to say, but I actually don't need a new bike. I bought a Roubaix Expert last November and I can't imagine how it could be better. I don't have trails near my house, so anything but a road bike would not be practical. I'll manage my financial burden some other way. I'm sure the IRS would be happy to take more from me - that would be a relief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
