The RR Big Brother Foundation

[skateblank714]

Alright heres how this works, any experienced skater in RR (somebody who can at least do all the basics), will be paired up with a noob here in RR(somebody who cant ollie, or even kickflip) and that way, if the new skater has any questions, he can go to the experience skater for help, through Private Message, not on the actual forum.
- So if there are any experienced skater who wants to volunteer, please post here, telling us you want to join and maybe a little about your experience (years skating, maybe your age to pair you up with someone similar, etc)
-If there are any new skaters who have just joined the site, go ahead and post here, and we will hopefully have someone to pair you up with.

The experienced skater will also hopefully teach him about the site, the search button, how to spell correctly, using the stickies, etc. and in the long run help everyone out

I have already paired myself up with elementality... an if this could be stickied, it think it would help it stay alive

You know what would work even better? If people stopped flaming other people for asking about stuff like the stuff that people are flamed for, then people could ask openly in th forums without having to annoy the other guys with PMs about how they can't find the right grippiness of griptape and how they can't choose what deck to buy because they all have good graphics. Seriously, those who enjoy flaming, please stop. It messes up the forums.

I havent been here very long but i'd be up for it. I've been skateing for a a year now , I can do the basics.

[CinciSkater2011]

There will always be flamers. THere is no way to ban them quick enough.

[skateblank714]

alright cool... lots of members joining, now all we need are noobs who will prefer to do this than fill the forum withs repetitive threads. Come on people, we wont bite

[AdioBird52]

And everyone flames sometimes.

[elementallity]

[NoneMoreBlack]

[skateblank714]

heres a small guide on private messagins (aka PM) for those that dont know



1. to send a private message, first you have to go to that persons public profile. You do this by clicking on their USERNAME over their avatar and then clicking VIEW PUBLIC PROFILE.
2. In their public profile, you will find a button that says SEND PRIVATE MESSAGE.. press on that
3. There you go, dont forget to put a title

if you want to check you messages, you will usually get an email that will give you a link. or you can just click on the PRIVATE MESSAGES button on the top right corner of the website

sorry for the pic being so small

Hey... is this something that could be stickied? It's a great idea... and it's something that shouldn't be pushed to the bottom of the page from lack of replies...

[spenser]

[mason]

well, you cant do anything about that. noobs are noobs, and you gotta help them as much as you can... no matter how stupid the question is. and i guess ill do it. i can do all the basics except treflip

[XBLinK182sk8rX]

Okay, I guess I would be considered a "noob". I have been skateboarding for about two months now and all I can really do is ollie(I ollie pretty good), shuvit, pop shuvit, manual(10 seconds is my record), nose manual(I suck at these, I can do it for about a second), and yeah, that's about it. What I need help with right now is kickflips. Like everyone else, I can only land with my back foot. My front foot just kind of falls off to the side and I can't get it on. I just started landing with one foot yesterday so I'm not expecting to get it soon, but the sooner the better. So yeah, I would be considered a noob.
