Yes its true, we evil buggers pulled an april fools double yesterday. The name has changed and its here to stay. Why did we change it? Well I'll try to explain. When Farkin was originally started, it was never meant to be anything major. Just a small fan website with a quirky name. In fact, the...
I just don't know how to put this, so am going to just get straight to the point: Manly Warringah Council have decided that due to a bureaucratic error that happened many years ago the single track sections of the Manly Dam circuit have never actually been technically legal riding. As such,...
Do you ride regularly at Manly Dam? How have the recent works affected your enjoyment of riding there? Do you have suggestions for improvements or other ideas? It has been brought to my attention that anyone wishing to give feedback to Warringah Council on their recent works at Manly Dam can do...
Hey Farkers, As you've no doubt noticed over the past few months, worthless, half-bred spammers are constantly clogging up the forums imploring us to purchase their cheap IPhones, DJ Gear, cut-price Nike trainers and lonely Russian singles. It's also clearly getting worse and worse as time goes...
Copied from: http://nobmob.com/node/10706 I'm very pleased... neigh... ecstatic to be able to share this news which broke last night but has been embargoed until now. With local MP Mike Baird championing the cause of mountain bike riders on the Northern Beaches NPWS have finally realised...
I'm sure many of you are aware of the policy that was first set in place last Christmas break, to quell the amounts of utter crap posted on the forums during school holidays, known as Zero Tolerance. Well it's on again kiddies! If you are found posting anything! in MSN speak, posting utter shite...
Although it is not my place, I feel that the Mountain Biking community should be aware that Carolyn McKinlay who was, with her husband David, one of CORC's DH Co-ordinators, passed away last week at the extremely young age of 46. Many of you may not know her but you would have been the beneficiary...
I've received complaints from sellers regarding countless boneheaded private messages they've been getting from supposed 'potential buyers.' We (I at least) admins are going to start cracking down on this because it has become ridiculous. Here's some simple guidelines to follow: - If you...
To all idiots that come on Farkin... save yourself the time and trouble of posting anything. It takes us seconds to ban you permanently, and another maybe 7-8 seconds to delete every single post/thread you ever made on the site. And I personally look forward to finding you logging in under a...
like we've said over and over again we're going to start enforcing the new rules, if you didn't read the rules before applying you have no right to be using the new system. if you have been removed you will be considered for reapplication in one month. Ty
Then point your browser in this direction and download yourself a copy of Mozilla Firefox 2.0 You'll find that the new Firefox, aside from all of the usual Firefox awesomeness, now has a fully functioning built in spell check that works in almost exactly the same way as the spell check in...
It's up and running... a lot like eBay's "feedback" system. If members are at all concerned about their trading reputation please use it BUT think carefully before leaving negative feedback. Keep the feedback FACTUAL and to the point. Keep the feedback about ACTUAL TRADING PRACTICE. Do NOT...
When something doesn't warrant an immediate temporary or permanent ban from one of Farkin's Moderators or Admins, people can now be given an infraction for bad behavior and breaking the site rules etc. Each different infraction carries a certain points value and lasts for a certain number of...
It seems to be getting worse around here so it was worth reminding members of Farkin's rule number 6 NO UNNECESSARY BAD LANGUAGE. The bottom-line? Grow up and think of others. This site is used by people of all ages, sexes and tollerance levels... and just because you might think it's OK...
It seems lately there has been an increase in the tendency to point the finger at a certain demographic of people, stating that they are prone to criminal behavior (in this case, stealing bikes). Despite however you might justify your opinions and comments to yourself, painting an entire...
Well, I've finally come to it. Re-enabling avatars and pictures in signatures. Before I do so I'd like to get a quick idea of people's thoughts on the subject. Do you like the site with or without either of these?
This is expressly forbidden. If you do need more than one account, speak to me and I'll make sure we know about it. If you received a ban, either temp, or permanent... and you make another account to get around it, I WILL IP ban you when I find you. If you don't know, an IP ban means...
