it seems to me that if he was banned for something he did, an action he took or something he stated, it should be made public. if for no other reason, then to ensure someone else doesn’t make the same “mistake” and get banned from a future event. if it was some personal issue with someone that doesn’t need to be made public, then specific details can be omitted. but the reason for the ban should be known to the yoyoing public so that they are aware of this infraction and do not repeat it. enjoy the throw my friends kgb ---

i know the truth :joy: taka was streaming “yoyo” videos while showing a unreleased spingear piercing nearby where kids were :open_mouth: Btw, It seems that the decision in the heat of the moment may have caused a wrong consequence, which has generated a lot of complex arguments to justify the unjustifiable. #freetaka ![53016735225_ef3813fb52_o](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/5/1/f51578f6803ed7b6f7bee1643a9cd84346dae6f3.jpeg) ---

The waffler strikes again. I think it means we should continue to speculate even more. Surely Steve wouldn’t post taka on his story if they didn’t meet up and and have a good convo. Everything was just a miscommunication, right? Would be a tough scene having worlds in your home country and not allowed to go over a miscommunication. ---

was this all resolved to the yoyo community’s satisfaction? i’ve been following the threads but haven’t had much to opine that isn’t already out there. individuals and the community, and the face some people have to put on to suffer through some bs (nothing here intended to refer) and still maintain a standing member are rough and convoluted. i was just curious, i hope all is well. ---

wow, ok… banning is pretty popular these days in the yoyo world. all these famous cats got banned, taka,… i’ve been banned, done some banning myself…. so, what’s the deal? what is that actually solving? the pic was good, but it wasn’t worth a thousand words. ---
