Should this site........................

#1 Post by Gio » Thu Feb 22, 2007 8:53 pm

Just be renamed Apriliaridersite?

:smt017

Seems they are the only ones about now, which is bad IMO, as I think there's more than enough room for everyone else.

No.

HTH.

You see all of the Site not just RS.

Remove yourself from ARS and then have a month without aprilia usergroup access. :smt002

Most of the posts are on the non-Aprilia forums, it might be the ARS members producing a lot of them, but they're not Aprilia related except the ones in the Aprilia section.

And we thought you liked us :smt010

He does, he's just hinting that since the arrival of the ARS lads, the members of RS have.... disappeared...

Which isnt really true and isnt ARS's members' fault in the slightest.

Well it's nice to be welcomed, but I also agree that the "RS" site it should remain and forever

I've just noticed how many posts have been made by the old ARS members across the full range forums available to us which is excellent (don't know where many get the time tho)

On the old ARS site only the falco pages were visited (in the main) and we didn't have the other forums to visit anyway.

Plus we would still be on our own and probably without any site at all had it not been for Kwakerz & Hammy

It's nice to be welcomed,and we are grateful for your support and company but this is not or never was intended to be a takeover of any kind.

More a meeting of minds

Is this actually two comments in one carefully crafted sentence Gio?

as in:
  • 1) If the ARS hadn't moved over here it would have died due to the funding issue over where it used to be

    2) If the ARS were not contributing to this forum, the RS would be 'dead'
Whatever, I hope us gobby Aprilia riders are not puting-off others from the main forum. I really like the combination of the Aprilia section where we can discuss those Aprilia related bits and bobs and the general forum where we can enjoy a wider perspective with riders of other bikes. I'm glad to have a strong Aprilia section but I would not want to sacrifice the diversity of the RS itself.
