Why did you start posting here anyway?

[Chrisp]

This is what happens when you're busy, you go away for a week, cannot recognise the thread, 9 mile point, yeah I do surf at Mona a bit (look for the kook on the afterburner, usually at mid)

another reason I started posting was the randomness of it all, I just just say non-sensical crap & no-one cares..........it's nomal

Oxymoron?

That's actually a bitter sweet comment you've just made.It's really just a poor excuse for a pathetic antithesis.

I started on this forum not long ago but had been checking the reports for about a year. Thought the forums were kinda like Penthouse or something but boy was I wrong!? Only joking. Nah I started posting cos I'm useless at face to face communication skills and have always found it easier to convey my point through the written word. I also love the anonymity involved as I reckon people can open up and be more truthful. The differences of opinion on here are great too. It'd be a f@#ken boring world if we all thought the same.

This wasn't the first forum i'd signed up to. I'd participated on a couple others previously. But yeah i must've seen a thread where i really wanted to have a say, and once you've been bothered to sign up to one forum, you know how easy it is. So yeah i just got started. It's nice how its so, oh what's the word, local? (Maybe not). But yeah we're by and large a Sydney crowd, or an East coast crowd, or Aussies in general. Which is cool i think, considering forums are open to worldwide participation.

[puurri]

Because I found some wit and wisdom here.

i signed up then got called a "troll" repeatedly

As good a place as any for a 1st post!
Actually, been a daily visitor to the site since '99 and regular forum viewer since day one - just never really felt the need to add my 2 cents. Always been a good read, lots of laughs and though-provoking at times too.

Been using Realsurf since '01 but didn't start posting until a few months ago as I had time on my hands due to not being able to surf (surfers ear op) and getting a job in a non draconian work environment that seems to tolerate some degree of personal internet usage. That and like the rest of the motley crew that makes up these forums I can happily bullshit about surf related minutiae for hours

[cobrakai]

(a) Because Tracks lost me when it went glossy

(b) Because I got tired of the seppo bullsheet on OS forums

(c) It's local and there's a good mix of people from all walks

oh and

(d) After working with online communities (not surfing) for a fair bit, it's just great to read about people pumped up about surfing.

Ahhh Coops@DropYourundies, your inclinations are showing. Infitisemally small tho they most certainly are. Im sure you stand tall with NC when riding that float down Pitt street each year.

[kreepykrawly]

I had something to say.

[One Mile Point]

I had something to say.

Well done

Wow, how profound, your intelligence amazes me. I guess this is your only way of communicating with others, that thread must have taken you quite some time to put together and I expect no-one is going to want to wait around while you try to piece together such an insightful statement.
