      As far as votes are concerned, its already on as most are voting in their posts. Basically, the same thing, right?


      OT: Suppose, if everyone votes for KamleshKanda (most of you know him by now), what will happen? He will say to us, "We shud not brake rules, becauz my heart will hurt when somebody brake xbhp ke niyam-kanoon. And nobody race bullet with car or shoot in factory, plz"
      I fell off my chair when I read his 'I buy Ducati,then i race car. No race now.'
      And his 'sms me ur no. I will also sms u my no.' hahahaa!

        Someone pointed me to this thread and this is ammusing! Am mighty surprised that I am considered as a bajaj hater. I am only a fanboy hater!
        Just for records:
        1. My first bike from my money was a Bajaj (Avenger 180)
        2. I was fortunate enough to be a part of a small focus group that Bajaj spoke with long before they launched the 650. I did say that at that price point the N650 was a fantastic option and I would definitely buy it. And I did.
        3. I did also say that the KTM690 is something I would die for, and am still waiting for it. I wouldnt mind the old 690 (The new one has lost its charm IMO)
        4. And just yesterday I posted on xBhp (and infact had posted that on the day 200NS was launched) that BAL has set the benchmark in Indian motoring on what an upgrade to ones flagship model should be like!


        That asides I do not want to be a moderator. I have my reasons for that. They have little to do with Motoroids, but more to do with me liking to be honest to my views. I am not saying that the xBhp moderators arent, but still. I love sarcasm, and with the mod status it would be a pain to pick on manufacturers\fanboys

        And yes. Bajaj sucks :P

          My votes as under
          1. AntzBin aka Anant Bhatia, has too much wella time that he spends on topics like rising fuel prices and what not Jokes apart, someone who is active and is constantly trying to bring in some sense and analysis (and at times over do it)
          2. Abhimanyu - This chap is an information warehouse!
          3. Darknight: Why isnt his name mentioned here! Its been a while since we have had an active member as a moderator from this chapter of xBhp (Mumbai) which is super strong, super sensible, and growing. You wouldnt want this to end up the way Bangalore did do you? For that, this man our "Raaje" or Chingam is the guy!
          4. Aargee - Though I have my reservations on whether or not he would want to take up the role!
          5. Ninad Ambre - aka Nunu: Has way lot of time, works hard to ensure his is the last post on mumbai xBhp thread, extremely sensible rider (and extremely annoying on facebook :P we all could do with him away from facebook for a while)
          6. worrisomebear: Another old chap who is now slowly going extinct but a very sensible contributor
          7.RanjitMN: Another sensible poster


          and no I wouldnt post Samarths name, atleast not yet. Though the way he has matured from the old xbhp days to BikeIndia forums to now is incredible!

          Phew! See this is one post that a mod might not have done! (even if it meant doing so under the garb of xPolice!)

            Yeah we desperately need the like,LOL!,thanks and dislike buttons here on xBHP.

            The new mod should be an organised freak who will organise all the new threads, put threads and idiots in their right places

              aargee - Aargee has been instrumental in CBR250R thread and in the 'help me' section he always contributes with pinpoint suggestion. Always comes with quality posts.

              satyenpoojary - Read his blog and his posts, one of the most sensible member I have seen, he does fit for being moderator of xbhp

              DK AKA Raaaje AKA DK Bhau :P - The last point that is mentioned by Sunil in the first post fits him perfectly. DK comes with load of sense of humour. One of the oldest member from Mumbai xbhp.

              nin - This guy is one of the most energetic guy I have ever seen, always ready to help.

              trustvishwas - He is the senior member of Pune xbhp, adds a lot of value to the whatever he post, we all know his Leh thread has became bible for fellow bikers.

                Aargee, Payeng. I'd vote for Satyen if he didn't mentioned he doesn't want the post

                  i vote for satyen (although he doesnt want the post), he has a good sense of humour and sarcasm
                  Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a Ride!' -Hunter S. Thompson

                    Thanks for clarifying Satyen. I posted a strong comment since I wanted a reply. What point I want to make is I saw some of your comments on Motoroids on bajaj which were sarcastic. I stopped following Motoroids after that. (No comparison intended) I followed Motorbeam after that and I am seriously impressed by the way Faisal its editor has controlled his any sarcasm and is so unbiassed to any brand. If you are a user like us its okay but if you have a controllable position of an editor and you make sarcasm it does not have a very good effect on people. I know you are not a Bajaj hater at heart.
                    I apologise for my comment if it offended you or anyone.
                    Whats there in a signature?

                      Argee, Payeng, Antz, Samarth and Poojary ji. That would be a good list.

                      I would have loved to be volunteered. But cannot since I can't spend a lot of time on XBHP.

                      Just hope that XBHP will not favour to one brand as such. And entertain negative criticism for a brand inspite of being used for promotion by them.

                            I hope that this new recruitment will make xbhp a saner place.
                            Hopefully,

                            1. No more idle banter (you got facebook for that. Lets keep xbhp clean)
                            2. No more unreadable sms language.
                            3. All OTs and meaningless oneliners will be deleted.
                            4. Personal attacks/Flaming/Too much fanboyism will be taken seriously.

                            Ah well, thats just my wishlist

                                Other than that Aargee for the simple fact that he spends a lot of time on the forum.
