I hope that the people getting their invites from ATOT aren't being greedy and keeping their invites for themselves. 🙂

The people in ATOT are giving their invites out as well, but they're having little contests and stuff to do so.

I have a couple I can give away...but you guys are gonna have to work for it.

Here's my problem. I have a bike - one of those old 1970's Raleigh bule road bikes that everyone always tells me were THE thing to have (kinda like gmail now) in 1975. I love this bike. However, I keep having problems with it - mainly that the tires don't keep pressure for more than a couple hours or days. I've replaced the tubes a couple times, even moved to newer 90psi tires. Most recently, after doing my best to get the bike in shape for the summer, the back tire lasted 8 hours before going totally flat. Last night I put a new tube on, and now there's a new problem....the tire starts to lift off the rim in one spot at about 40-50 psi. The tires say 27x1 1/4, though I looked at the old tube and it says 27x1 1/8.

Obviously I don't know a helluva lot about bike repair - I just want to get the damn thing to work without a lot of hassle - and obviously I've been doing something wrong. The first few to PM me with honest, informed, helpful advice get a gmail invite for their trouble.

You have PM.

This thread seems to have gone south quickly...not for the requests for gmail, but for the people wanting to only give invites out to select members, and people looking for services for their invite. Seems to me that the initial posts were just tossing out invites to ANYONE who wanted one. Personally, I'll wait until it goes public.

And yes, I do understand that lurkers are parasites on a board like this, but it is a public board, so stop complaining.

Its called a community for a reason. I dont think any forum member likes it when people who have never posted to the forum come in and register the accounts, without a word of thanks. This thread was posted for the anandtech forum community's benefit, not any random person.

BTW, please stop posting requests for accounts. Like I said before, there is no easy way of tracking the order of which people that request accounts recieve them, if there is a queue mentality at all. People have already mentioned posting earlier in the thread begging for an account with no results. The people posting now are just ballooning the thread with requests that will most likely not get fulfilled since 10 minutes later another 5 requests pop up. This is slowly becoming the gmail beg thread, not the gmail sharing thread.

Just be patient and wait for someone with invites to give to post.
