Yes Ray, I know....but this is our home right now and to actively discourage donations, particularly from a moderator, is wrong. |
I do not beieve it to be wrong when those donations do nothing but line someone's pocket.
Yes, it is our home and I love it here but, I do not like how we are treated by our host. It is like we are 3rd world victims of the internet.
If those donations were to do any good and give us some kind of normal response times and no SQL Server interuptions, then by all means, donate to your hearts content.
But, no, we are treated like shit and I do not approve. |

Thanks for the pick me up...
I can't believe the mean and critical things people have said to me.
I want to try and make it work, i love the bike and it's so fast. I raced my son and beat him...lol! (probably a stupid thing to do)
Remember... walk a mile in anothers shoes bit... well people... i wish you could walk a mile in mine!
I'll spare you all the SHITTIN story.... but I'm a good, honest, funny, and nice person and just got taken advantage of with this bike. SO I have a right to be frustrated because I trusted the person I got the bike from which was a MISTAKE.
Anyway... I'll probably keep for a while.. HELL, I could win the freakin' lottery right? it's like $102 mill in TN right now! |

Dawn, the technology of these bikes is not beyond your scope at all. Get yourself a quality namebrand metric toolset (check your local pawnshops first if cost is a factor), a digital multimeter, and a couple other special tools. Download the service manual from this site and ask questions when necessary. Do your own work on your own bike and be proud of your machine. Stop blaming the previous owner and fix it right. You can do this.  |
