Ok after a some phone calls and a bunch of PMs with regards the site it's time to sort this shit out. Folks it seems that OZFS has been turned into more of wank fest of late. For all of you that believed Shane was real all I can say is Cecily/VTRgirl did a great job on you guys. I have been watching the amount of utter crap and off topic stuph being posted and it's driving me nuts...more nuts than usual! How many polls FFS? If you cant stay remotely ON topic then create a new one that suits your needs .........Its a "MOTORBIKE" forum first and foremost!!! No matter what you ride. Please lest cut the shit and get back to it Cecily sorry mate I have had a gut full of the shane shit please pull the pin on it so I don't have to do it my self. To all those that are offended or pissed off about this post please feel free to PM me with your thoughts........... Andy...over it!

Sorry about the Shane poll Andy but I knew he (she) was an imposter and a threat to OzFirestorm's good name. Nobody takes sandwhiches on a ride and shame on VTRgirl. ;D She needs to get a licence!

Sorry about the Shane poll Andy but I knew he (she) was an imposter and a threat to OzFirestorm's good name. Speaking of wank fests Oh, and believe me, there are people who take not only sandwiches on rides, but weetbix as well. Considering some of the posts around here, Shane livened things up. Many of the regulars were having a whinge off the record about how boring the place had become with a certain two members posting every five minutes on the most tedius stuff imaginable. Shane was actually the brainchild of about half a dozen contributors, most of whom did a brilliant job. Get over it. Andy, I did the right thing ages ago in filling you in, since the forum's your baby. You didn't indicate that you had any problem with it then & if it's become so since then, it wouldn't have hurt you to simply let me know & I would have seen that Shane vanished.

It was a bit of a laugh trying to work out which "Shane" it was at any one time. Something like that does help to build a bit of camaraderie with people you are never likely to meet, so not a total waste of time, IMO

If the place is boring you then don't look at it...... Yes I was informed but had no idea it would be this much crap! Also I had to PM you you to get to the stage of being informed. Weetbix? what about the milk? ;D

I've just arrived home from work & am still shaking my head at the number of complimentary PMs that have poured in from members who'll miss our new buddy. LOL. He may have been a bit simple & gob-smackingly naive, but Shane was a lovable chap & it seems he'll be missed. LOL. Andy's right. This is a motorcycle forum, first & foremost, but as dogman's pointed out, the comeraderie amongst members on this site & friendships that have been made here are much more than that. I don't think I'm alone in hoping the place isn't stripped back to just a bike forum.

I also hope that this place is never stripped back to "just" a bike site! I'm pretty sure that won't ever happen. I got a huge giggle out of shane. I was in tears at times!

(that would be me) Dont be hard on yourself dude, you obviously didnt go through and read all of "Shanes" posts and you didnt go out of your way to try and make somebody who no longer owns a Storm feel unwelcome here because that somebody (me) didnt think "Shane" was genuine.
