Thoughts on these "boost" products?
Hey guys, sorry for being a little thick here, but what's up with this "rep" thing? I mean, if you're giving me "reps", and that's a good thing, thanks a heck of a lot... I guess I'll take them! And if so, how come my "reps" are still at 0 (zero)? If you weren't giving me "reps", then sorry for being so cluelessly assumptive! 
How does this "rep" thing work anyway? In the short time I've visited here I've received lots of great advice from you guys and others on the forum. I could have given reps too if I'd known what it was all about. Can't seem to find any info on the whole "rep" thing.

Thanks
BTW, T. Coyote... are you any relation to Wile E. Coyote?

The best looking?!?! Maybe because every wheel they make is just a copy of a Japanese wheel.
I'm not made of money, but I just don't care for copied products and would rather save and spend money towards the real thing. This is what makes all of us different, other people probably think I am an idiot for doing so when I can get copies for less than 1/2 the price, sometimes 1/4 the price. I just don't believe in another company profitting off of what another company brings to market by copying the design. And please don't somebody start spitting out Free-Market bullshit. If Rota would just stop copying designs and start producing wheels of their own design, I would think about purchasing them. Somehow I don't believe they will ever do that, just too many people out there that want the look of the real thing but don't want to spend the money for it. Simply amazes me in all honesty.
Wonder what would happen if/when the big companies just say screw it and close up shop and then there is nothing left to copy for all the copycats in the world?
Gomen nasai for straying off the original topic, but I was reading through the thread and came across a few posts that led to my post. Don't bash my opinion as I am not bashing how other people spend their money and like I said this is what makes everyone different to some degree. To the OP, I'm sure you got enough answers, but don't ever consider purchasing the snake oil propaganda boost products. If you want boost, you are going to have to spend some good money for the real thing.

button and agree or disagree. It's administered differently on different boards but I believe you have to have a certain number of posts before it counts.
Thanks for the info, Steve. I'll positive rep you the next time I get something from one of your threads!
