Its because everyone thinks there hot shit and doesnt look up to anyone.
hell when i rode stan smirnoff and benj were my fucking idols, i watched their videos every day and sat there waiting for new video releases from them and other riders. now every kid thinks their the best and dont need to look up to anyone but its not all the kids fault, its the fact that the skill level of the average rider is growing so there are less guys who stand out and are prodmoinantly at the top, so theirs no one for them to look up to, making them think they're hot shit which makes them disrespectful to every other kid on here becuse just like them they also think they're hot shit.
the moral of this story being,
you're not and never will be hot shit now go ride for fun asshole

bro, it was always like that when the market started to blow up years ago
But again, beating a dead horse, SR has barely changed, but the scooter scene has entirely changed, affecting it in ways as everyone is pointing out

no sr has changed alot, used to be alot friendlier with the occasional cj treihart shitfest that we all just laughed at together.

I'm right there with John, Tyler, and Jordan. The level of friendship and respect on here used to be absoultely incredible. I KNOW I wouldn't have made it as far as I did in the sport if it weren't for this website. Since I joined over 8 years ago, I still find my fingers naturally typing the "scoot..." into my address bar. It is sort of bittersweet to see our sport grow. On one hand, we get all the new companies and parts, more and more support from other sports and their companies, and more and more money invested into it. On the other, we lose the sense of togetherness we had, the awesome friendships, and the sense of support we had for one another. Most of those guys have either grown out of the forum, been consumed with their new found financial success in our sport, or quit entirely. It really is a completely different mindset being an OG vs being someone just coming into the scene (if you can call it that). I still look at someone like Jordan and think of him as a good friend, when little kids look up to him and see one of the top tech street riders out there. The sport is moving almost into its 2nd generation, and that's pretty crazy to think about.

Really? I left the scene a little bit when the forum got out of hand (everyone complaining about drama and mods were being unfair to a lot of people to overcompensate) and my scoot broke (for the last time) so I took up BMX for a little bit. I actually don't even own a complete scooter, I've just been working myself back into SR into the scene I love while I've been saving up for a dialed scoot.

Damn, you still lurk? So sick if so.
Yes. It's a thread about a website not being like it used to. Of course there's going to be an element of elitist seniority about it......

Dear Mr. Riley,
It has come to my concern that my primary account of use on this website (Ben Moak) has been stripped of its rights of access for a time length that i did not believe was necessary. It would be greatly appreciated if said account was rejuvenated of its status and was usable once more.
Thank you for your time,
Benjamin Moak
