Hey yall!
Got spammed with a PM from here so I figured while I was here I would stop by and say hello!
How is everyone?
How am I still in the top 10 posters?

Didn't EricAlm once note that you posted to every active thread at least once?

I'm #2!
Funny how eric's has doubled since I last checked. Either he's posted alot and I'm too blind to see, or he's modifying his post count. I know there's forum scripts to do that, but honestly, it's just a number. Not a competition or race.

I'm not saying he did, I really cant remember the exact number of posts he had say 3 months ago. But having over 9,000 posts and me not recalling it to be that high makes me think it's a possibility.
Or maybe it's been more than a year since i last looked at the top 10 posters and I was confused and thought maybe it was just a few months ago when I checked.
Just a possibility since I used to belong to a forum where a certain administrator would constantly increase his post count artifically through scripts because there were many users who did have legit high post counts.

MikieTaps in da house! Hey, dude.
I wouldn't know how to artificially up my post count if I wanted to. I expect it's increased because I'm not working 60-80 hour weeks anymore.

I'm kinda surprised that I'm still way up there...I don't really post a lot and I don't even have the interwebs at my house anymore! Maybe it's because I've been a member since before ericalm was even a moderator...

Psst, I don't think he'll be back anytime soon. I think that was a one way message.

I am a total jerk!
No tickets on the bike yet... just the Audi (grrr) lawyer is taking care of it anyway.
The bike is super fun.
and about facebook, pm sent.

Ohh, its not 270cc anymore
I ran it for the last year or so with that motor, then pulled it apart again. Its headed for a 390cc engine now!
Its also been stretched and sports a 12" rear wheel on it now. Its pretty badass.

Well, its not that impressive sitting stripped down and mostly in boxes right now
I'm waiting on some parts from Taiwan and some money to spend on other parts from Taiwan before it'll be back together. I'm shooting for this Summer, but we'll see. It took me almost a year to make the Vespa GTS engine run in the frame, so we'll see how long this project takes!
