a special thanks to jwil425, who has sent me a yyf skyline expecting nothing in return! he even paid the shipping. what have other people done for you in the yoyo community?
Yomagic gave me my first yoyo. Still have it, a YYF Northstar. A TON of stuff from TheRyanFace and advice that really kept me from being an ignorant person who knows nothing about yoyos
Many members have been generous with their time in regard to my reviews. I am very thankful for the amazing support I have gotten for all the reviews I have done so far. Every time I write one up my inbox gets flooded with thank you’s and questions. Many times I gets messages just asking for more reviews and compliments which are nice to receive.
I have also had the pleasure of dealing with some great people on the BST. Everyone has been great and gone above and beyond!
Well, jrodriguez has been more than generous. He sent me spacers for my SPYY Radian Mk II, and made me a real spiffy set of caps for my Journey and HM, as well as sent me a really nice Legacy.
Julius of proyo fame hosts a free class 4 times a week that I try to go to at least once a week. I would say that Andre was pretty generous making this website free.
deeman103 sent out a yoyo before he got the $ for it. And everyone who helps coordinate contests and giveaways. Honestly the best community ever, I run track and x-country those guys are vicous!
I’ve received a No Jive 3-1 from yoyo408 (Dana) on another forum that I am eternally grateful for. I still have it and play it regulary. Lately it has me wanting more.
I’ve also received a DMII from King Felix for winning a short story contest, a raw, polished Battosai from a christmas exchange I took part in last christmas, and recently a ton of cool stuff from azznboyaz (Wilson).
I love the yoyo community. I give back where I can often as well.
When I first started a generous stranger sent me a care package while I was stationed in Iraq. This was the beginning of my yoyo career and I wish I knew who sent me that package. While the yoyo’s i received were nothing special (Duncan Reflex, Spintastics Tornado II, Fireball) they remain special to me for sentimental value alone.
I also received a yoyo from Dana, that I passed on to a little kid at NER through a rock-paper-scissors contest with all the little kids who didn’t have metals yet. I’ve also had some fantastic deals with Dana.
No good deed goes unnoticed. I bought a Goose Bay Campfire and sent it to his address without him knowing, as a thanks for what he has done for Jim and myself.
