Why are there so many people that only look at posts and don't reply?
« on: November 04, 2010, 09:19:27 AM »
Or is it just the few of us that reply, that keep looking back at our posts to see if anyone else said anything? lol

I'm just saying. Most topics have over a hundred views and under 10 reply's and I'm being generous with 10. Or maybe it's just me.

True Life, I have an addiction to SOCAL JET BOATS website.  :banghead:

those statistics generated include hits by search engines (including their bots that collect info off this site)....as well as people browsing the site that arent registered members (i call them lurkers)

personally, i wouldnt get worried or frustrated by it. I would rather have solid posts on thread rather then 100 people saying "i dont know"

Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Mine was stiff when working it back and forth on the trailer.
Once I got it on the water and under power, it was amazing!

Or his GF sold all his boats while he was at work, and told him to start her car project.
At the very least he has to sneak away to log on to SCJB. ;)

Nope! They're all still here! Hitch locks, boys!  :thumbup:  That and hide the keys, park 'em in with the truck.........

Actually, I've been pretty busy with inventory at my current location, finally done yesterday, and persuing getting promoted again. Should know the answer to the latter next week sometime, but been keeping tabs on here with the phone. Just can't post most of the time, or work on my fleet   :banghead:
