I believe, good sir, that you are confusing a bicycle with a unicycle. Bicycles come with handles, specifically designed for your hands. You place your hands there and like a miracle, you can turn corners with ease.

The device you are speaking of is incredibly popular with "Clowns" and other members of their posse.

actually it relay depends on the speed you are going at at the time of the turn.. if you are going slowly like say between 0-10mph (i don't work in kph) then yes your using the handlebars to manually steer the bike.. however from 10mph and upwards you will slowly find that you are using your body weight more and more to tilt the bike at an angle to the road.. this in itself will also "turn" the front wheel in the desired direction to that end once you hit 20mph and above.. steering should by then be as you could say.. fully automatic .. your hands should only be there to hold the bike steady and true on its path as your leaning into that road.. using your handlebars to turn the wheel at such speeds and you are very likley to mess up your balance or if your unlucky cause the front wheel to go under yourself causing a very nice fall..

And as a regular commuter.. I to have also had a many number of near misses some at great speeds.. people like to speed on them country roads when its dark :S

You succesfully ruined the joke, Monrena.

I do handstands on my bicycle. All Dutch people can do that.

Fucking hell. Abs shouldn't want to kill you after anything under 200 situps. This is bloody disgusting. Gonna shower and feel ashamed.

by Guest Thu Nov 15, 2012 1:49 pm

Don't burn yourself out dude. Just get into training regularly at your own pace and don't rely on someone else having to go to the gym with you for you to go.

by **Muzjhath** Thu Nov 15, 2012 2:02 pm

I work out at home. And I am disgusted since I can't do more than 80 situps. (Without risk of injury can probobly push myself above a 100). Which IS disgusting.

by Guest Thu Nov 15, 2012 2:04 pm

Not really. Exaggerating it and trying to talk down on yourself isn't going to motivate you though.

by **Muzjhath** Thu Nov 15, 2012 2:17 pm

Heh, it motivates me. Five years ago I could to the amount that I'm aming for with hardly breaking a sweat so.

I'm just comparing myself with where I feel that I should be. (Since, had I never lost my fitness motivation due to knee injurices and some personal shit I would have been far ahead of where I was at that point today).

by **Lavian** Thu Nov 15, 2012 2:24 pm

Just take it step by step. You're in no hurry to pull off the three digits. It isn't a race on how fit you -should- be because the race is only with yourself anyway. Thats the impression of what I get that you "should" be at "this point".

As pert said just take it at your level and don't talk down on yourself with disgust, you'll get to where you want to be sooner or later. You're pretty aware that you're not the only one with these thoughts I would presume. Just take a stride and work your way up at your own pace, don't rush it. Don't feel disgusted. There's no need for those feelings.

by **Muzjhath** Thu Nov 15, 2012 2:37 pm

Oh, for me there is. This feeling motivates the shit out of me.
It's disgust and thus moivation to get better, or what I had for years. Apathy and thus not caring.

After 3 weeks of solid routine you'll really get into the swing of it, atleast thats the magic number i've found

Volusia just went full retard in our recruitment thread on the Battle.net forums. What does it take for Blizzard to ban such a person?

Being called a nazi is a first at least... Neutral

-shudders-

by Guest Sat Nov 17, 2012 10:40 pm

He's just looking for a reaction.

EDIT: Suppose we could all do our bit and quickly report, hope you don't mind me sharing the link?

by **Ixirar** Sat Nov 17, 2012 11:00 pm

What I don't get, since I see nobody claim it didn't happen: The people spamming anti-jew shit in /s in Volusia's screenshots, are they actually from your guild? And if yes, was there any action taken against them?

Edit: Nevermind, I read the rest of the thread and got what I needed.

I lost my (old) laptop's keyboard in a similar way. It's not fun Sad

by **Emrys** Sun Nov 18, 2012 12:21 am

@ixirar: I already told the person that I do not want to see any of that behaviour every again. He claimed he did not mean what he said and just wanted to get the guy banned but I still feel it's wrong to stoop to his level. Besides, I am close to kick him from the guild for being a tremendous idiot and will do so if he pulls this again.

And now he claims I have been whispering him for the past few hours even though I have not been online for about two hours. The fuck. I reported it and hope it goes away.

Volusia is a retard, but so are your guildies. The only reasonable standpoint is to disown both parts of that fight. What happened in the b.net thread was Solanum going to idiotic lengths to defend Nogor against Volusia's accusations.

by **Emrys** Sun Nov 18, 2012 12:42 am

To be very honest it did not occur to me that what Volusia stated about what was said was true at first... I just expect everything that comes out of the guys mouth to be a lie or blown up to extreme proportions. Like him stating I have whispered him even though I was not even online at that point. After which he uses a Dutch curseword, so he probably knows that I'm dutch and thus has been digging into my personal information to try and make it more personal... It creeps me out to no end... I make a habit out of not using any foul words when dealing with people, no matter how offensive they are, but I did not expect someone to make things up just to try and get to me.

Perhaps the internet is not the place for me...

by **Seranita** Sun Nov 18, 2012 1:16 am

yeah I remember this guy harrassed me for nerly 2 to 3 weeks strait not a few months back.. what a sod.. he tried to make contact with me again the other day too.. he gort a swift polite yet firm responce followed by a /ignore.. thank god he did not try and persue me again.. what blizz need to do is ban his ip.. not just his account as its clear he keeps making new accounts.. his old ones are confermed to have been perma banned

by **Gor'Thrak Frosthowl** Sun Nov 18, 2012 1:46 am

Recently he has been complaining about me using the 'Firelord' title and trying to lick my character's ear while I was afk ("Oh refreshing Elven earwax, how I love thee" Neutral

). Nevertheless, he suffers from a need for attention disorder, and the way that he goes around having nothing better to do nearly makes me feel sorry for the guy. But just don't reply to him and don't put him ignore, as he'll simply log to a new alt each time you do so. I do this myself and he usually gives up after 1 minute each time. Trying to argue with him in any way won't make things better.
