> [@A\_Soviet\_Locust](#): > > The reason the “how high can we go” thread doesn’t get locked is that it doesn’t bother anybody. Nobody takes anything from that thread out from it. Where as bronies have their avatars, signatures, and avatar messages. And “how high can we go” has much less people who religiously follow it. And to be honest, i think the Unrelated section is great. it gives people a break from all yoyo-related stuff. But a short break. Everybody needs to be silly every once in a while, otherwise they’re just dull. I more browse the other sections. But I do probably browse it more than the unrelated section. And honestly avatars shouldn’t bother people. I don’t like most of the avatars here but I don’t care. Generally, when people get mad at bronies for bringing ponies outside our thread it’s because we were dragged out of our thread to fight this fight again. I understand that everyone needs to calm down. But it’s much calmer when everyone was sorted into their place like it was maybe a week ago. ---

Some of them are very vulgar for an all ages forum.Music? there’s another forum for that.Video games? There’s another forum.Pretty much anything in the unrelated discussion has another place on the internet for it.I agree on the fact that us bronies have no “rights” but we do have privileges ,and so does everyone else on the forum.Whether you take them from us is your choice ,but I just think it’s unfair to take a privilege from the bronies and let others have the same privilege when they do the same as us.I’m not one for long posts ,but I feel this needs to be said.I’m thinking about leaving yoyo forums all together if it stays like this. Thats a wise choice, the leaving the yoyo forums that is. They are inane and retarded for the most part, look how you fools babble non stop. Look at yoyo reviews, someone just reviewed a 6 yr old yoyo. Apparently, he/she cant find anything better to do than to slag a yoyo that was made six years ago, a yoyo that spawned a revolution in yoyo manufacturing, but oh noes it vibes we better call it s piece of crap. Yo-yo reviews are pointless to start with, a six year old one, is just that much more so. Yo’s are so high quality now, that reviewing them is pointless, it is nothing more than giving an opinion on the yoyo and its specs. Yoyo involves the physical act of throwing a yoyo, not blabbing about it for days on end, if all the yoyo forums vanish over night, I really do not see how Yoyo would be worse off, in fact I think it just might be better off. I think the inane forum competition of ‘how long have you been throwing’ as in ‘Ive only been throwing for two months look how awesome I am’, or ‘Ive been throwing for two years see how good I am’, does nothing to foster creativity, forums have turned every aspect of yoyo into a competition, collecting, reviewing, even commenting on yoyos is a competition, its retarded that something so goddamn fun has spawned this sub culture of blabbing about how awesome you can yoyo, or you can collect, or trade, or sell. The most creative and cool yoyoing is going on right now in someone house, or room, and this person has no clue about yoyo forums, and for that I thank the gods of yoyo. Go throw a YoYo, don’t blab about it too me, I dont read replies, very rarely, so it is pointless in a sense, Im not here for discussion, just go throw a yoyo. ---

I disagree. One of the nice things about our community is everyone involved in it tends to know each other. What’s the point in that if you can’t learn anything about each other? It is an important section. ---
