*** Important...Please read.
Since the beginning of this forum back in 2007, I have always advocated an open mindset to how we communicate here.
I've always compared it to like sitting across the table, laughing and discussing a Vulcan issue instead of just typing it on a keyboard. But one thing I've always advocated for the forum is safety. I feel strongly about making sure that all members have a safe place to discuss Vulcans and that means allowing everyone the opportunity to ask any questions and discuss Kawasaki's without harsh recourse or bullying. Whether you are new to the forum or have been here for a while, please keep in mind that that is my prime focus... giving you, the member a safe place where you feel free to discuss your Vulcan issues. A place where you can freely talk about Kawasaki issues without fear of anyone pushing their lifestyle or ideals on you. Thanks, Trip

Okay Trip,
I dont know if your looking for any reply here or not; but I for one am glad and appreciate you for creating this forum. If not for any other reason than to learn and discuss issues of our bikes. In the meantime, I also like the fact that I may make a friend or two along the way. So I say Thank you for the forum and allowing us to have a safe and open speach type format. Ride SAFE! Frank

I couldn't agree more......

If the conversations get to a personal level where profanity and harsh words are exchange, then those need to take it elsewhere. There is NO room here for Bullying. I personally like the idea keeping the jokes light hearted. If the religion and politics become a serious intent/discussion, then I feel it needs to be done privately and elsewhere. Trip, you have done a GREAT job with this forum and I have referred many others to join and they have the same compliment. Keep up the fantastic work and lets keep this forum mainly focused on our BELOVED RIDES......

I guess sometimes things like this just need to be said.
Hope no one is giving you a problem that brought this on?
