I am not aware of any recent problems

well, consider yourself aware.

it’s not just me, others here are reporting the same.

my mouse software works fine with EVERY other website, games, the lot.

So how’s it working out for you ?

great thanks.

STW specific button settings never occurred to me though.. you realise theres more to the web than STW?

Kinda surprised so many people use the back button – seems like a painfully slow way to surf

oh aye, coz a lil squeeze on the mouse bottom thumb button is like, such hard work.

yep, just loaded a page with bt ad on, then the back button played up.

cybm, can you do a sticker that looks like dog shit?

seems to put people off touching your bike..would be a good thieving_scrote deterrant

what stuffing for 12ft chicken?
sage ‘n’ onion?
parsley ‘n’ thyme
or l33t stw homebrew organic breadcrumbs ‘n’ tofu?

hey rachel, you seem highly informed on beards, does yours grow quicker than your hair?

or are you giving us the default stw defence?

like kids, wipe their noses for them every time and they’ll never learn.

Nothing like a long walk home to reinforce a bit of learning.

depends on the roadkill.

neatly dispatched pheasant or deer, lovely!

hedgehog or rook, probably not.. though I bet someone will be along shortly to correct me!

footflaps, where’d you find my cv?

your post didn’t seem like a discussion, more a pissing on of suggestions, with no original solutions of your own to add

well shut my gob for suggesting a solution.

thanks for your constructive input cougar.

note the sequence of beeps and google bios beep codes.

also, remove and remount your RAM sticks, they can move with heat/cool cycle and cause loose connections.

if its still up, I did shit this wkend, with lewis and perez wiped out by that tw4t in the first corner.

you’re ‘parked on a slope’?

🙄

a cyanide pill plus the promise of a lifetimes supply of jellybabies to the prison guard that could slip the pill to adolph while he was locked up.

or satellite technology.

or a set of bollox for chamberlain in 1938

slightly off topic, but what would the world be like if we hadn’t had the war?

edit: from the germans point of view, hitler would have been more successful if he hadn’t been nuts.
good job for us, huh?

movember headstart, the cheating git.

some of you peeps need to have a

1. W4nk
2. word with yourselves.

perving over a BT ad? really?

Haven’t you see Charlize Theron shedding clothes for the sake of perfume? 🙂

i regularly drill 16mm holes in masonary bricks, concrete etc with a sds cordless. no probs.

drill a 6 or 8mm pilot hole first to ease the pressure on the chisel point of the 16mm. wont be so difficult then. you dont need a bigger diameter pilot as all the pressure is taken by the chisel point

take your time, with plenty of ‘in and out’ to clear the dust.

easy peasy.

possible loose connection or other fault.
crackly phone line?
phone ring once, then stop but someone there?

godammit, was stalking this thread.. haven’t slept for days!

oh, and whatever you do, do NOT have an online blog detailing all the preparations and events of the day, just to be used against you on w-day +1 and forever after.

oh.

my top tip.

turn up at the right venue, before the bride.

drac, in the pub with STW.

beer in one hand, banhammer in the other, keeping a beady eye out for trouble.

not in the pub, on here of course!

isn’t learning about ourselves interesting?

when we do something a little different from the way we thought was the best or correct way, just to discover we were doing it wrong all along!

I’m in my forties and have learnt lots about myself recently.. fitness and ‘self’

essel..

remember your audience demographic!

a small poo

you can keep it.

i like some of the tag suggestions and think some fun options would be a boost.
i would also like a couple of extra categories for users.. ‘Bikes Stolen’ ‘Bikes Found’ ‘Tyres’ plus a ‘member since’ and ‘post count’ would be good.

a ‘like’ and ‘dislike’ button would also be useful.

However, i suspect from the tone of the admins/mods already on this thread that its a foregone conclusion that there will be no changes, in case a delicate flower flouncemails the admins.

how ’bout a trial of some of the suggestions then get some feedback?

press the ‘like’ button if you agree*

*oh shit, you can’t.

i like the argument debate over which forum i was referring to! i see what you did there!

Forming my thoughts a little more clearly, i guess what im trying to say is that ‘freedom of expression’ appears to me to have been stifled somewhat.. people are thinking twice about what they are submitting.

I’m all for banning out right abusers and racists and trolls etc, but a lot of people on here are ‘characters’ whose opinions are widely known and take part in the banter with a good nature and probably accept that they will get comeback if they post things to provoke reaction.

We are all adults and should know when to speak and when to keep quiet and withdraw from a debate. i know this is not the case with some and when mods close threads i guess people generally know to ‘move on’.
That for me should be enough for arguers.

I can see that the forum ‘watchers’ i.e those who look but don’t post, will always be there. Many may now be tempted to post now that the bans are here. However, what attracted people here in the first place?

I for one enjoy the ‘life’ and ‘verve’ that this forum has even though there are a few spoilers.
Having run a couple of forums myself (not big), for me, its not the pretty format or the watchers that form its character, but the CONTRIBUTORS.

keep thumbs off left shifter?

some say *applause* but I say look down the list of topics in overview and not say meh.

well, a little more recently than that tbh.

theprawn is a legend from before my time, and is fondly remembered.. alas i dont think any of the ‘dogs in funny costumes’ posters will be as famous

Mounty, if the speed is up and down, maybe you have an intermittent line fault?
Plug in a WIRED phone into your main socket (with the faceplate removed) and listen for crackly/ buzzy noise. (try it without router/ filter plugged in also)
Does your phone ring once and stop yet someone there?
Does the SYNCH drop when the phone rings?
Does the synch drop when you have been talking on the phone for a while?
Is the problem more noticeable with weather/ temp conditions?
How simple is your internal wiring?
Do you know how to look at your router admin page to check your connected speeds?
What are your neighbours connecting at? (assuming you are on speaking terms etc! 🙂 )

edit – I generally remove these third party ‘booster’ faceplates if I come across them. If you have simple internal wiring and no internal/external bell, these offer no benefit.

I did exactly that, i got my CBT and then a Yamaha YBR125* to get used to the whole motorbike thing (as I’d never ridden before).

125 was great fun, 200miles per £8 and i gained a lot of confidence in my abilities to handle the weight, speed etc (compared to a push bike!)

Overall, it took me a couple of years to pass my ‘big bike’ test, but i was in no rush, choosing to feel ‘ready’ to step up to the bigger class. My thought was that i needed to get some good miles under my belt before trying bigger bikes. I’m glad I did.

Take no notice of the idiots who say ‘go get a proper licence, big bike, spend loads, blah blah, do what you feel is right, what you can afford, take your time and be safe while having fun.

* I was recommended to stay away from cheap ‘chinese’ brands of smaller bike as they can be prone to problems, falling apart etc. good advice tbh, i bought the yammy and got my money back once i upgraded.

well, I enjoyed brian may.. clearly all you middle-aged it people must be in your twenties.
