helps me screen gems of members like this:

Please don't be snob, answer a simple question...

I want to use your forum, why won't you let anyone join or even view the forum?

just saved us another 3 months of an annoying member

WOW....the gaul of people. Grateful he didn't get a chance to join.

He just answered his own question.

I love that non-logic.

Hmm, this guy has something that I want, the access to which is totally within his discretion to give or restrict. I think my best course of action is to be an ass.

I agree, I have been helped and have helped others because of this forum. Makes you feel good you can share with others like yourself and geek out around the O table. The Knights Of the O table, so to speak. I am still relatively new, but I have met good people here. I hope to get a chance to meet some of you at HQ. Thanks to this place I have been introduced to some fine recommendations. I got my wife a pair of hollow points and of course a pair for the future case. I also learned about the clear Bob head and Medusa, which would have not been possible, without this forum. Although it is costing me a small fortune getting this stuff, it is nice to know I am not the only nut in this oakley tree.

1) Sign up for the O-Review.
2) Start throwing out annoying/useless/annoyingly useless posts.
3) ???
4) Profit!

I was amazed and thrilled when I found this place... 2 years ago this month....

I spent 11 hours reading the forum before I even posted - it was like Xmas and your first bike....

I came in with the amazement that there were people like me, I think I had 7 pair at the time - maybe less....

But...I also saw this place as an opportunity to make some cash to feed my habit. What I didn't count on was all the great, like minded people that I would meet. It was a learning experience for me - and I am grateful for the opportunity the OR gave me to evolve. If you stick around - you will meet some of the best people you could ever befriend. It was rough for me and I made some mistakes in the beginning - but I learned from them. This is a brotherhood - not a place to make a buck.

The OR can be more than just a forum...Just stay calm, avoid confrontation and don't let your passion get the best of you - some of the best friends you will ever have reside here.

Just my 2 cents...good luck!

Very well said Nik, and I am glad to count you as a friend.

This is a brotherhood - not a place to make a buck.

I definitely have less money because of the friends here...

I'm fairly new here...but the few people I talk to on a reg basis via pm and email are the reason I got less $$ as well...LOL

I just love the overall info this site bares and that you actually have some adults here, not just regular stupid 'forum-chatter' you find in so many other places...

My fav part though, to see what makes people's collections tick...just awesome the diversity!
