Reason TRW was created, to avoid bullshit like this.
You guys realize you are starting a big ass fight over the fact that some kid was wondering why a fellow scooter site was down. You all need to grow the fuck up.
EDIT: Actually this was all started by Rob.
Right? I come in here to let you guys know theres something going on to find out an ADMIN edited my signature because he thinks I'm stuck up. Regardless if I am, as I recall, a rule of moderators and administrators on this website is that they are to remain neutral in arguments, if thats changed then whatever, but changing my signature is immature as hell.
I personally think TRW and Impact serve little purpose compared to SR and Inside. It would be nice if SR had TRW-like options (background themes, chatbox), but eh. Our community isn't big enough for multiple forums to be necessary.
I guess our community isn't big enough for all of these scooter companies we have to be necessary either. I guess we shouldn't spread out more and try to get the word out to more people about scooters. I guess we should just continue having competitions in 4 or 5 skateparks. Fuck it we don't need anymore blogs to cover the scooter news, just keep the one or two we have already..........
Not everyone is going to like SR, not everyone is going to like TRW or Inside. Not everyone is going to like Inward or Razor or Proto. Keeping things jammed into single websites, companies, or whatever might turn people away from joining our sport. Some kid might see a video on Youtube, get interested and come on here to see what to get to get into riding and think this community is full of losers, if there is an alternative maybe he will give that a chance. Then maybe that kid will turn out to be the next Terry Price.
And you know what, if we were to keep it small and keep it to one forum like this, maybe everyone should be able to take advantage of the website so I don't have to have Freestyle Depot ads and Proto stuff slammed in my face all of the time. Like 1 out of 10 page loads on the main website brings up an SZ ad, everything else is Freestyle Depot. I'm still mind fucked why Proto can show all their stuff off in the most active part of the forum here while the other companies gotta go and hide in the manufacturer section. Its the shit like this that motivated me to make TRW.
Look what happens when a kid asked a simple question, christ.
