    I've been hanging around UKRM for a little over 2 weeks now, ever since a
    move to the UK became imminent. I've been on rec.motorcycles (Reeky) for
    about a year (as I used to live there) and I've been on aus.motorcycles
    (ausmoto) for quite a while.

    Believe it or not, UKRM is now my pick of the bunch. The
    "flame-for-no-reason" factor at aus.motorcycles is much higher than here. I
    respect and even encourage a good flaming when a total wanker lurches on in,
    but I have yet to see much in the way of flaming at UKRM that wasn't fully
    merited.

    The wittiness comparison is hardly worth commenting on. A classic
    rec.motorcycle retort might be along the lines of = "well dang, I'll just
    get mah gun and we'll see how funny you think you really are there, boyah!".
    A classic aus.motorcycle comeback might reach the lofty heights of "****
    off, ****!".

    I like this place.

    Well, that's hardly surprising, is it? I mean, with the others being
    full of yanks and ossies, it's a bit of a no-brainer, really.
    **** off, ****.
    Works for me.
    Oh dear. It'll all end in tears, you know...

    I vote that the UKRM FAQ add a rule that explicitly forbids any sort of
    reference to Dungeons and Dragons (or any other role-playing game), on pain
    of death, torture or at least having your bike taken away and replaced with
    a beige Vespa.

    Cheers Manning
