    Just wanted to know, as a noob to all things DH it's nice to know I'll probably not be finishing last.

    Actually, that's a thought, has anyone ever considered that he may be the most awesome of awesome riders and could simply blow all the competition out of the water if he wanted to, but he DELIBERATELY finishes last in order to give a confidence boost to newbies.

    I bet he posts Worlds beating times when he's out on his own.

    Most detested:
    Numpties, spammers, people who give advice on internet forums about stuff they clearly have NO idea about, people who abuse the English language, people who can't phrase a simple question properly, people who just don't get forum etiquette. People with "Forum personalities" who act like angry kids with ADHD and too many e-numbers on the forum but are quiet and timid when you meet them. People too intimidated to come and say hello, I am not scary. The newbies who think they aren't newbies.

    Most respected:
    The Old Box and HRH the King of the Box. Avi and the Louse. The people who understand that YOU ARE NOT YOUR POSTCOUNT. Andy Waterman, god rest his MBR writing soul. The people who get off their arses and turn up to big rides and say hello. The people who take the advice they asked for. Mike Wyatt who cleansed the mess with righteous global deletion. The guy who turned MBUK pink. Whyamihere for being a cynical roadie fully accepting of its disasterous wrongness, and for dragging me round all 100km of HONC. The newbies, who provide me with the entertainment a smaller forum can't provide.

    like:

    pretty much everyone but i like some folk because they are funny, some because they are knowledgable and some for both reasons.

    hate:

    -fourcrossjohn,
    -people who post replies as experts when they are regurgitating internet "facts"
    -people who use "oh my god, this has been asked a million times, why dont you use the search function :roll:" as a substitute for an answer.
    -people who post to increase their post count, i genuinely dont understand why its important.
    -people who dont get when i'm taking the pi55* (hint: pretty much all of the time, i dont really think a person is a puke or a virgin, its just what i call people**)


    *especially about racism, i think its funny, (not the act but the response it gets from people who know racism is wrong but not really actually why and jump on band wagons without a little look at the bigger picture)
    **apart from in the case of 4xj, he is both.

    Did you remove one from your hate list?

    I only ask because * does not seem to apply to anything and it looked pretty interesting.

    I went through a phase of disliking porgy but got over it when he explained himself. :D I should be hated for selling out for two months but i look up to Whytepeak because he's a funny guy.
    Mabie forest. Maybe one of the greatest places to ride.

    As for OP -

    Look up to..well SS, Nicklouse and Ride_Whenever know there way around a workshop, which is great for my odd questions!
    All the guys that came on the forum ride were sound to.

    Not sure I could hate anyone just for writing on a forum, I know I certainly talk bo11ocks from time to time anyways!
