I don't get it. So you pose questions on KF to be on this list. I am just going to assume we have a very different sense of humour.
Agree, so silly to lead so many forum readers all over the world to waste their time :o

Most readers are not native-english either, so eventhough a bit of fun can be okay now and then, this is IMO ridiculous :roll:

Seems like a disease (that needs getting help), just like ludomania/alcoholism and similar....

And if you ARE posting any serious questions too, then you could at least be more specific or detailed so everybody knows what you are talking about ?
Dont expect the rest of the world to understand some cheese and maybe local oneliners that only makes sense in your own mind or area :wink:

Oneliners from someone who has a reputation "not to write anything that makes sense nomore", will be misunderstood by those not knowing, and laughed at by the rest.

This is meant seriously and not as an "attack" - as I am not sure you are aware yourself, of how these postings seem to appear to all other forum members ?

:-? Peter

The committee is debating whether this is a valid entry for the open competition. :winner1: :winner1: :winner1: :jump: :jump: :jump:

Obviously Peter hasn't got a clue how a windless day may affect a rider's mental health. :dumbo: :dumbo: :dumbo:

What is the difference between kitesurfing and kiteboarding?

I thought this thread was funny to begin with. Now I think it's a little bullying.

The number one silly question actually is a valid question. Does closing the struts affect performance?

By posting this as the number one silly question. It doesn't show the question posters ignorance. it shows the ignorance of the poster in this thread.

If you have a little knowledge of fluid dynamics you can consider the potential ramifications of closing what closing the struts will do.

OP has a complete lack of knowledge in fluid dynamics. Thus to him it presents as a silly question.

So..... Before posting a silly question here consider who will be the one being mocked. Question poster or silly question uploader.
