i was thinking maybe a parts review / rating section and bike of the month with each sub category taking a month as its handy there being 11 of them then pit all 12 against each other for the last month and bike of the year.
One of those calenders with forum regulars (the ugliest ones) posing naked with bits of Duke obscuring the meat and veg. Or the boobies I, of course, am too pretty for such things.
i agree with who ever said an annual whole forum meet would be good. its a nice way to put faces to bikes
I'm a new member and am finding it an utter must read on my to-do list when I get home every night and finish my chores (i.e. watching Jon Snow, ironing my shirt for the morning and getting my dindins). I've been away from Ducatis for just over two years and was sad to discover that the old site (you all know the one I'm referring to!) doesn't exist any more. That said, I find the slightly irreverent tone of some of the posters on here absolutely hillarious and i just love being able to bloody well swear without the fear of getting my thighs slapped! I subscribe to the American Triumph rat.net/speed triple forum (as Trevor, my Speedy, is the reason I let go of my last 998 :redface but this site seams to have more character - and it is important to me that it is a UK site... I'd like to see a regional get-together - but maybe that already exists and I just haven't found where to find it yet? Perhaps the calendar could do with more use?...
You can go add free by donating, well worth it & it goes to the running of the site http://ducatiforum.co.uk/f18/**-donate-go-advert-free-more-**-387/ Re awards, I agree....maybe have like a status bar with blocks under your name like they use in v-bulletin forums. The longer you're a member, your status / blocks go up kinda thing. I used to mod on a faily busy site and ppl used to same the same thing about spoilers. For my tuppence worth, if you dont wanna know, dont go to the section, its very hard to police to be honest Yup, search and moresmileys please to convey your humour like on v-bulletin. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ loads them...yup :biggrin: Also Matt, would you move to a v-bulletin format, keep the red/bage format...Just an idea. Save space & bandwidth Id be looking at, also, see what sections are least used and ditch them, kinda squeeze into "general section"(?). Great site :wink:
would be good to have a spotted on / I'm selling on eBay. i know this happens in other parts of the forums but it could also include a "don't touch with a barge pole" thread for all the scams out there.
