Is it bad riding style or bad brakes ??
I'm asking that as a question as I don't know the answer.
I must admit I use my rear brake in most urban situations and "normal" riding, it's only when I'm "making progress" that I'm forced to use the front.

I'm sure there's alot of people that wouldn't recognise warped discs. However, if you do a lot of riding and you've got a modicum of mechanical knowledge, you'd definitely tell the difference.
you're right though, alot of people use front brakes at low speed, which, causes excessive fork dive and therefore instability.
