Aussie Annie Posted August 16, 2010 Share #76 Posted August 16, 2010 I've been here for just a short time, I joined because really 12.00 is not alot of money to find out if I fit in here, I may not, I live a long ways from most of the members on this forum and I sometimes feel like an outsider because of that, But Im not skeered. Hey Cruser, Here's some coffee and cake on me We just had a little mini meet & eat...did ya enjoy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruser Posted August 16, 2010 Share #77 Posted August 16, 2010 Well you dont live that far from Big Bend Natl Park and we are having a get together Nov 11-15th..This is a personal invite...I bet you will fit right in! http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43261 That's huntin season for me, I will be deep in the Lincoln National Forest stalking bambi during that week in Nov. I read about the Big Bend meet it sounds like a great time and if it happens again next year and I don't draw for Elk or Deer I will be there.

BradT Posted August 16, 2010 Share #80 Posted August 16, 2010 If there was a way to sort the list that way, it wouldn't take so long to find someone who is actively involved. FWIW and INMHO! Welcome guys. You will fit in, if you show up at a meet and eat or even on the forum just post away. Hope you intend on sticking around. The meets and ralleys are always fun. Don not sure but did you miss the question here. I think this would be a great idea. I would like to see a way of sorting this members list for Paid Members, as most likely they may be more active here. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Haywood Posted August 16, 2010 Share #81 Posted August 16, 2010 I am not sure why somebody woul;dn't fork out a measly 12 bucks a year to be a member. I have owned my Royal Star Venture for 4 weeks, Have put 4500 miles on it so far and have already saved my $12 in free advice from the other members. I had an ignition switch go bad and there was a post telling me how to by pass it to get it home that I had read before the problem. Right there paid for my membership.Plus the knowledge on here is priceless. If you have something happening to your bike that you can't figure out how to fix you can bet someone on here has had the same problem and has already figured out the fix for it. OK I'll get doown off my soap box now Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

etcswjoe Posted August 23, 2010 Share #83 Posted August 23, 2010 I need to get off my lazy rear end and go ahead and pay. I have already enjoyed 8 bays of my 15 day trial and especially after my first meet and eat I am hooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tx2sturgis Posted August 23, 2010 Share #84 Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) ...... I live a long ways from most of the members on this forum and I sometimes feel like an outsider because of that, But Im not skeered. The more remote you are from the members, the more you should appreciate this forum. I'm quite familiar with the Tularosa area and have lunch or dinner there at the little truckstop at the 'Y' fairly often. I'm guessing that you dont see many Ventures or Royal Stars around there, since I dont see many either, where you live, OR where I live. Having a forum to visit that provides some knowledge about these fairly rare bikes is a valuable service. I'm guessing that Aussie Annie or Squeeze could tell you that being a few miles from Ohio doesnt make you an 'outsider'...it makes you THE 'goto guy' (or gal!)in that area. Enjoy!

Freebird Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share #85 Posted August 23, 2010 OK folks. Sorry that I let this one fall through the cracks. I looked at it and to change it so that you can sort by usergroup takes a LOT of custom programming that I would have to remember to do every time I upgrade the software. So...I took the easy way out. I now have the memberslist set to display ONLY supporting members and trial members. So everybody who is now shown in the memberslist is either an active supporting member or somebody that we hope to be soon. After their trial period ends, they will automatically not be displayed any longer. I hope this works better. We will try it for a while and see.

Freebird Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share #89 Posted August 23, 2010 Wow at $12.00 a month I may have to rethink this investment. Where do you see that? It's $12.00 per year. MMMMMMMMM Why don't i show up as a supporting member? You do. It is right under your username in your post and also in the upper right of your profile. You are also listed in the memberslist.
