This is a remarkable time in MotoGP. Lorenzo's pivot to Honda is, without ever yet turning a wheel, a balance of power shift. The question for next year is this: who 'cannot' win the title? The short list of those who can, has it grown by 1,2?

Marquez
Dovizioso
Rossi
Viñalez

Lorenzo?
--
Petrucci?

As to who cannot win, if I had to choose one, then I would go for Petrucci. I really cannot see him doing much beyond what he already has. I have the impression that Pramac is a more chilled out team which would seem to suit Petrucci a bit more. I might be wrong though and I have huge respect for Danillo for moving up through the Superstocks. Talk about an unconventional route.

Keshav, you obviously can`t control yourself or you find joy when people argue because of you.

You quoted 22`s post in his exchange with Jumkie, trying with "Attention Deficit?" to lure him to confirm that, and antagonizing them too?

Stop with this ...., you`re not behaving like an old man but like a spoiled brat. I`ve asked you before, but you`re helpless man, it`s sad.

Stop being the forum`s arsonist.

Nobody was trying to "lure" anyone into anything dude. It was a lighthearted jest. People need to stop being so thin-skinned, and moreover, stop doing it so selectively. All the people who ..... and moan over such a wee thing, have yet to say .... about Synn who makes egregiously and openly and unapologetically racist comments here and hardly goes a day without ham-handed and aggressively malicious attacks on many of the most mild-mannered and easy-going members on the forum. Don't be sucked into Jumkie's victim narrative. Taking the piss and clowning has been an integral facet of PowerSlide since its inception: having a sense of humor and not taking yourself too seriously is a prerequisite. This forum has never been some Ultra-PC, snowflake college campus safe space where people walked around on eggshells. You're a good guy, but don't come around often enough to have perspective with which to view all this. If you did a search you'd find hundreds of posts by Jumkie that are outrageously malicious in nature, for instance dozens of them that were like blasted earth, no prisoners taken, astonishingly rude and mean spirited by him and JPL directed at a well liked and respected member Kropo. And Kropo a guy who could give and take pretty damned well, even said in no uncertain terms that he found that he had a hard time taking part in those discussions because he suffered from clinical depression. People who suffer from depression are easily alienated and prone to suicidal thoughts, if not suicide itself. It was a clear-cut plea for a minimum of civility. And after that, Jumkie and JPL's response was to make their campaign to malign and alienate him even more vicious. Yet Jumkie paints himself as some wide-eyed Pollyanna innocent caught in the crossfire. What a load of .....

I'm sure he'll take it like he already has on the previous times that Dovi beat.

If Dovi beats him when he is riding the bike on which MM is winning the championship I think it will be harder for him to rationalise, as opposed to him being beaten riding the Ducati which is well recognised as an idiosyncratic bike which doesn’t suit all riding styles, including Valentino’s remarkably successful style.

Exactly. And I reiterate; my comments are not in the "salty tears" category. I didn't say this out of antipathy toward Lorenzo. Just honestly speculating.

From now on, can everyone leave a blank post underneath Kancer’s posts.
Apparently, the guy needs lots of private space

I am not defending anyone, I’ve been reading posts on here for a long long time before I joined. And I’m honest when I say that I’ve read some of the most insightful motogp opinions on this forum than anywhere else. Now it’s none of my business what happened between you and Keshav but I love and aways look forward to meeting new people and form friendships. I’ve read some of the things you wrote about your meeting way back when and how you welcomed him and went out of your way to make him feel extra comfortable and I honestly and truly appreciate that. That’s how I treat anyone that I invite to be my guest and that tells me a lot about what kind of person you really are so kudos.
But you guys had a fallout at some point and instead of dealing with it privately you made it a public affair. I don’t mean to interfere, my call for peace was just a simple and I guess naive attempt to calm things down. Clearly things are very complicated between OG members here, I guess I shouldn’t have commented so please disregard anything I said and carry on gents.

Let’s say you and I had a falling out that spilled over into the forum and destroyed every thread. I attempt to stop it from ever happening again by asking you to never reply, quote, like or converse with me ever again.
You refuse to do so and frequently instigate to start it all over again. Every time this happens you act dumbfounded and blame everyone else. Most people would agree to stop baiting and just ignore. Keshav won’t even ignore the people he puts on ignore. This is not some old vendetta, this is the troll cycle Keshav repeats, repeats, repeats to destroy the forum.


RG, you have to understand that he’s a sick deranged individual.
I’m on other forums as well.

All of them are groups of people who share personal interactions with each other. While this may be the most informative it is certainly the least personal.
It never used to be like that until Keshav went after a members family. Since then, people have walled off the personal stuff. He doesn’t just ruin the forum every day, through his actions he ripped out it’s very soul.

You do realize that calling a pasty ... middle aged white dude with a fake Indian name “Rajesh Kurryfart “ isn’t racist, right?

Pretty hilarious is what it is.
Thank you, come again.

I wasn't around when all this went down and I have been here a while. You and Jumkie have been harassing and insulting Kesh and Barry since the day I first posted giving lie to your denial of a vendetta.

With all the gotcha quoting on this forum and all the claims of false accusations going back and forth, I have yet to see any evidence of the alleged attack on someone's family. You are constantly propagating hyperbolic drivel that doesn't pass the smell test. Frankly, your post stinks of ......... I for one would like to see you quote the alleged post. Gut instinct tells me you won't, because it's just more of the top ten falsehoods you trot out on a regular basis.

Ripped out the soul of the forum. :rolleyes: Let the wailing and gnashing of teeth begin. Lets all run screaming in the street, tearing our hair out. Bring on the hair shirts. The apocalypse is upon us! It's the end of days.

I comprehend just fine that complain though you do about the agendas of others, your posts are nearly always agenda driven, particularly when they concern Lorenzo or Márquez.

Read again and tell me what the 2019 Ducati has to do with Lorenzo and Marquez.

This much stupidity must really hurt your head, does it not?

Read the Qatar thread and how he treated Tatlock. That’s not a vendetta, that’s Kancer at work.
Apparently you just going to ignore the last two months of Roger history 101 and the countless threads of Jumkie being complimented by anyone that has ever met him. Your on the wrong side of things, which doesn’t surprise me given that its your family heritage to make poor choices.
It’s clear that your just a contrarian because its the only way you can get attention.
Your not getting any more from me Little Loser. Goodbye

I am smart enough to recognise an attempt at re-treading by a usual suspect of an old narrative, in this case poor disadvantaged Valentino having nothing but his native talent to pit against a bike which rides itself, apparently not only by electrickery this time but by outright cheating involving electronics.

For someone who constantly boasts of his ability to needle others, particularly me, you would seem to be rather easily needled yourself, btw.

My intention was to support JPS, whom I do value as I said and who I understand posts under some difficulties at times.

I just demonstrated to myself once again that allowing myself to become sufficiently annoyed to take issue with a poster personally is counterproductive, having managed to insult McZee, a relatively recently joined poster whom I hold in great esteem while having a shot at Synn. I found in my flame war with Cliche and to some extent when I had my dispute with Roger that even if I win I lose, I don’t enjoy demeaning other people even if I think they deserve it at the time.

Then that's why this forum goes to ..... Few with the courage to speak out when it's there in plain sight. Disappointing, but that's why the world is the way it is. What's that quote about the triumph of evil? We all lose, tge ........ win.

If you live in a glass house don't throw rocks.
