Sometimes it helped to get "the word out" and "update" other riders of our happens, but for the most part, that seemed to turn our messageboards into a "status quo" outlet. Many times we get the "Hey, Core6 is dead, where are you supporters?" Truthfully, I wouldn't call anyone on here a supporter..... ****, the people who come on here are usually the first to talk **** if we aren't bragging or jumping online to routinely talk about ourselves. I went somewhere this past weekend just to hang out with some riders and I ran into some serious ego's.... I don't miss it. I remember those days when it was all about "one upping" the next guy. Childish man... just childish... takes the fun out of the sport.... and completely takes the bond out of the friendships you build. Everyone is against Everyone. I don't know about you, but I got sick of putting myself out there, just to be burned in return, because I can't do the newest trick. Seemed to me like your friendships were only as strong as your skills.
Call me an *******... a has-been... a *****... unnappreciative... whatever. I love my bike, I love to ride, and I love to stunt. No one can take that from me and I got sick of people trying to.
Anyone else feel the same?

I only wish the new guys could appreciate the old-school boys who are not in the limelight that made this what it is. Damn, I'm only 30, but seem so old to this. I think it's great that there are a lot of new guys that get to feel as though they're accomplishing something and a part of something even bigger. I congratulate the accomplishments and the progression and even more so, the participation. I hope people don't forget the roots of all of this and more importantly the respect for each other like us "old dogs" had for one another.
Just want to say that there are some guys out there who do respect the guys who held it down back before this sport got to where it is now. I didn't get into stuntin by goin out and tryin it when i was bored. I saw it first, and had a teacher who has helped me with everything from hittin 12 to no idle-hand circles (you da man Zackie Chan!-AA Phoenix,AZ). And if you ask me that makes it easier on me cause i knew it could be done and had someone there to tell me how to do it. I have alot of respect for anyone whos been doin it longer than i have; anyone who had to learn it on they're own, whether i can stunt better or worse than them. I know new guys that lack that respect, I ride with some. They just don't understand i guess. But don't count all newbies out.
