see you all keep proving my point. In my last, most of you agreed with what I wrote, yet still I was bombarded with -2's. Trust me I'm not too worried about those because it was my first post and apperently everyone gets that. it was supposed to be something different for a first post but I guess just throw it in a pile.
But how do you agree and add a -2? I don't get it.
Since you loooooooooooooooooved my first list, I shouldn't grace you with another one. But I've grown and read and done a little more research, so hopefully ya'll like this better.
But nonetheless your going to get one. It should garner a better response to my first post, why because it's not about you nice folks at ubersite.
things that shouldn't be done while riding a bike
1-sex, spokes are very dangerous
2-eating, even though a sandwich tastes good doesn't mean it can't wait.
3-piggy-backing a friend instead of doubling, once you hit that front brake, wham! they are gone.
4-talking on the phone, that means you can't hear a car behind you
5-playing tag.
Now let me explain the last one. A couple of years ago my friends and I were playing 'Bike tag' and we set out a general area of streets in which to play.
I was "it" and was chasing my friend Ben. see for me to get him out I have to rub my front tire with his back tire. As you can see it gets very dangerous. I hustle up and get really close behind him, he's swerving and trying to avoid me but I'm the better biker. At the last minute he tries to turn into a small path onto another street. I follow suit on the turn he slows down and I make contact with his tire. But turning his bike around because the force of the impact. His bike flips up and hits the edge of the path fence, he is still on it by the way. After hitting the fence he flys off and lands on the roof of one of the ajoining houses. His bike stuck on top of the fence. Never in my life had I seen a crash like that. I didn't even stop, I laughed. and said "you're it!" and biked off. we played for another 3 minutes but no one found him. The owner of the house called an ambulance and he went to the hospital. We don't talk mucbh anymore but when ever I see ben I let him know he's "it".

I hate to be cliche, but Ubersite is society.

I like the pause you put in their to emphasise the profound nature of this comment. I'll be sure to melt down my false idols now that prophet HighVoltage has come amongst us and blasted us with this mighty truth. Also I disagree.
In anycase though this post was apalling.
================
I heard that line a while ago when I was a noob and held onto it. It does have a ring of truth.
Worship the one true HighVoltage.
That is all.

None too well written, but might have been amusing had it been.
Also, does "see for me to get him out I have to rub my front tire with his back tire" seem a little bit... ghey?

That's true. There are no rules. But you are thinking of the website as a website. It isn't.
I hate to be cliche, but Ubersite is society.
Let me ask you this, would you smoke in a non smoking area? You won't be arrested or anything, you'll just be asked to leave. Really, that means nothing in the long run, but people will be angry with you.
Those millions of little social rules that you must adhere to are similarly applicable to Ubersite. There are things that keep you away from -2's and things that make you gravitate to them.
Punctuation. Proper grammer. Content. Flow.
When you fail to adhere to those rules you will get an onslaught of -2's. It doesn't say anywhere that you can't write a story without using the 'Shift' key and only throw periods in occasionally, but you will be -2'd as long as you fail to do that.
Ubersite can be very rewarding, which is why so many people (myself included) come back again and again for years on end. Same as out in society.
Understand a little better now?

see you all make these "rules" and reply them, but do I see a rules link or page. No. This website has no "rules". From what I gather that is the point of this thing.

I missed the first post. Probably because I do things normally during the weekend.
Why am I here now you ask?
....Uh....
I dunno. That's a good question.
Ubersite is made up of many different people, but for the sake of this I will classify them into two groups.
Group A, who help noobs (like yourself) when they can't figure out the 'formula' to get good ratings.
Group B, who enjoy watching you be anally violated by polar bears.
I go back and forth between those groups.
Instead of ripping this to shreds, I instead will give you some information, and then inform you that your human heritage is questionable.
1. Don't +2 rate your own posts. It doesn't effect the rating and you look like a dickhead.
2. Don't talk about previous posts until MUCH MUCH later in your Uber career. Make us like you first before you talk about yourself.
3. Avoid lists. They are dead ends.
4. Monkey's throw their poo.
5. If someone gives you a negative rating, don't retaliate and give them a negative rating. People don't remember your bad posts unless you make a stink about them and that is the sure fire way to make us remember. I make a policy to -2 all retaliating ass holes. Rate on the merit of posts, not how you feel about the poster.
And now for the insult.
Uh...
So you are like the missing link between humans and apes right? And by that I mean your mother was raped by a gorilla while on a trip to Africa. Though I guess it doesn't count as rape if she got the gorilla drunk first and then offered to jack it off in a parking lot behind a bar.
But still, the gorilla was better than the wild boar who she was married to.
.....
That was weak.
.....
You know what? Fuck you. I hope you choke on elk penis. (I feel much better about that one.)

I never agreed with you. Not for shit.
This wasn't quite -2 worthy, though. For fuck's sake, stop talking about your post within your own post. Let the post speak for itself.

in your last post, i wrote:
Secondly, they write everything in a big blob, and when they get a negative rating they write a second post saying how much they don't care about what we think, when they really do.
did i call this shit or what?

But how do you agree and add a -2? I don't get it.
============
Because there was no worthwhile content. Nothing interesting to read. You think we want to hear someone who just got here lecture us about the site we have come to know and love for quite some time now?
It would be like someone coming into your house and telling you what you should do with your furniture.
Normally this post would be a -2. But your little story was slightly amusing, although it could use a lot of polishing up.
Here is a -1 in the hopes you'll stop whining and get better at uber.
Be grateful.

Oh, and also, not everyone gets -2'd on their first post. This is often a joke. Look around, you'll see. Even mine, for instance. If it's amusing, it won't always get flamed. Honestly, yours was flamed because it sucked, not because it was your first post.

Hint: at no time should almost HALF of your post consist of text about your first post, the reactions to your first post, or promises about this post.
Have something to say.

You see, the trick around here is that when you do your first post,
a) Don't mention that it is.
b) Post something good. Seriously. Nobody on this site knows you. You have your entire life to choose from. Hell, make it up if you have to. Someone might call you out, but we'll never know for sure.
I'm sick of people coming on to this site and posting shitall, then saying "You only hate me cause I'm new!!!sob!!"

How would you fuck someone on a bike, anyways? I don't think the seat is big enough to capacitate two human bodies... But I might be wrong.
