Small rant

I was thinking 99 ;)

Or maybe put it on a timer hahaha, if you post 99 posts in under say a week, you can't post the 100th for another two weeks.
Although a few regulars might not like that one too much ahhsha

Agreed, Maybe time + posts? You have to have 100 posts and be a member for over 6 months. Also make being a "site supporter" a requirement also... That would slow it down a lot.
 
What about picture of your build pulled to pieces on the floor before you get the discount. That will either stop them or make for a lot more "I don't have time to finish my project" for sale bikes.
 
Never considered myself a Narc... but ya, I've PM'ed offenders and Cc'ed Tim and Herm as a heads up, bet those two hate messages like that always poppin up in their PM box. ::)

Maybe a prerequisit to have your own build thread here?
 
The DCC discount saved me about 20 dollars. but I also linked them the information for my build thread, and most of my 100 posts were in that thread. 50 meaningless posts in one day just comes off as spam and should be dealt with the same way. Into the bin for recycle

Hmmm. I don't have a build thread. I think it's well established that I make a lot of contribution to the forum, however. I just don't get into posting build threads.
 
Lol I have always wanted the first ever post to be brought back, only people who were former members of the other site would appreciate this.

Alpha, you are definitely a huge contributor to the site. Which is why I (and I am sure others) would like to see more of your work. I'm sure you have turned out some pretty inspirational stuff.

I wish DCC would do away with it or offer it for a serious amount of posts like 500.

Put it at 500 and they'll post 5 times more a day. :eek: :-\ :mad:
Few years back I was a member of a forum in the UK and you were put on a probationary membership...you could read all u want and pm members but weren't allowed to post for about 2 months...if you're new to any venture 2 months goes fast coz in the beginning you're jus looking for ideas and knowledge. Few ppl join forums knowing it all or even knowing a lot.
 
Back to the original post - I've been coming here for years, and I didn't even know you could get a 10% discount from DCC. Ah well.
 
i prefer the current method of being a dickface to new people. if you add rules then somebody has to moderate the forum more, and i don't get to say "fuck" nearly as often.
 
What's the point of pissing people 'you may in future ask advice from' off for the sake of saving 10 bucks....
 
Darn it! Too late... by my records I've already dropped close to $400 with DCC. I just like their stuff. Taking my posts to dollars ratio at this point it looks like I'm going to be spending another $2,428 before I can clip my coupon. :( I own a business and understand why companies offer discounts; that said I like to pay retail often just to support small businesses these days. :)

I believe that already is a prerequisite, you send herm an email with a link to get the discount.

Hey. Hey. Hey.

I've noticed a trend lately of folks coming in, reviving threads over a year old with comments like "nice" "cool" "good work", etc. When i investigate, they're always less than 100 post counters. This leads me to believe that the "fill the forum with bs" trend is rampant just to gain a 10% discount from DCC. This irritates me to no end.

I hate that. That is all.
Same here. Especially people who post rants to up their post count....oops, never mind, you have over a 100! ;D ;D
