Hi, you may all remember me from a few years ago. I used to be SUPER active, but then kinda faded away into other things. My interest in yoyos has died down quite a bit. I still yoyo sometimes, but I haven’t learned tricks in a while. I want to get back into yoyoing. I’ll be posting here sometimes. Also, I want to apologize for how cringy I was and, if I annoyed anyone. I was 12 at the time, and reading some of things I sent here just makes me want to die. In fact, the embarrassment some of things I’ve said still keeps me up when I’m trying to sleep. I’ve matured a lot since then. It’s also nice to see how much this forum grew since I left. Lots of new people 🙂 ---

Hi Evan. I really hope “makes me want to die” is just you trying to be funny. Please don’t think like that. Yoyos are toys! You know who plays with toys? People of all ages…including you when you were 12 years old. Welcome back! And again, please don’t think like that (heck, don’t even say that stuff!) ---

Don’t worry, I didn’t mean it literally! Was just very embarrassed by some of the things I said. ---

You were 12, don’t sweat it. We got grown men in here that have no excuse for their comments but they are few and far between. Welcome back, I can say my interest with yoyos has yoyoed up and down as well. Enjoy it while the fire is ignited, and whenever you put it down, know it’s always there to pick back up. ---

> [@Evan\_the\_yoyo\_boy](#): > > how cringy I was At least you have the ability to reflect on prior posts and actions at an early age. Wait till your posts have aged 20-something years and revisit them. The cringe could be even worse. ---

There are corners of the web that I fear to visit because 25-year-old Ivan ran rampant on those forums. It never stops! But that’s a good thing because if your past stops embarrassing you, you’ve stopped improving. 😃 Ivan ---
