That is of course, if i decide to not delete it.

While I agree with you here to a certain extent, I would like to interject and say that character of an individual or organization is not always defined by a problem it has, but rather, the way it is resolved/handled.

This post looks worse (in my opinion) on the club than the original thread does.

If we are "not here for hits or to be popular" then why does it matter?

The reality of the matter is Kenny is correct. The activity is significantly less now than it was a year ago. I can see how this can drive curiosity and there was certainly no bad intentions on his part. An innocent question that to me, shows concern.

That being said, if not having a hugely active forum looks bad on the club who cares? If someone is willing to dismiss a group or club because the posts on their site are low instead of actually meeting and talking with club/site members, do we really want someone like that involved anyway? The thing that I dig about this club is the social aspect of it. For the most part, peeps are more about face to face time rather than behind a keyboard interaction and I love that. Its not about penis size like SO MANY other motorcycle forums are and that's awesome.

Don't take this the wrong way, but you seem to jump right to negative assumptions rather quickly when anyone wants to voice an opinion... just an observation. Take it with a grain of salt.

As you were

"That being said, if not having a hugely active forum looks bad on the club who cares?" +1 But...

I care when its being blasted across our website. There are tons of other ways that kenny could have approached this. Im not too sure why you think my post is somehow WORSE than kenny's... not really sure what to say about that..

Glad to see I've created some fire! Yes, this forum is Awesome. A lot of responsible riders here on this site. From a guy who belongs to numerous forums, I just find it odd that that this forum has the least amount of traffic, and maybe because it's dedicated or focused more as a club than a forum? Yes, there are your weekly RR rides posted, TWT's and so forth.

I enjoy reading new threads and seeing pictures of your rides, especially your Iron Butt Ride to Oregon. In the event that a lot of these are posted in the private section, I hope you reconsider posting most of your threads In the public forum. In my opinion, a healthy forum is an active forum. I only posted this because I have noticed a significant drop in the activity compared to the other site and thought that all the club members were just posting in the private forum. I could be wrong, just trying to figure out why.
