The other alternative is listening to nightshadows posts on how to grow as a thrower and a person but his posts generate even more heat haha

Donât worry. @Roy_Dodge is entitled to his own biased opinion about me.
I really enjoyed those posts personally. Donât see how it caused so much heat. Some people are sensitive and just read what they want to read and not what was actually written. For someone that is going to school to be a doctor and has to maintain a 4.0 GPA⌠we have to assume he is pretty intelligent.

I bought about 6 bearings from them when they had that crazy sale! 3 hybrid bearings for 7 dollars a piece ?? It was the best deal for bearings ever.

Oh so thats what this is about⌠that shows insecurities about yourself as I never mentioned you or called you a pleb. If you read the post for what it was and not just read what you wanted to read you would have seen that I stated I didnât have a problem with people with lesser skill making a review⌠only the people that make said reviews and talk about aspects that they donât have the skills to be talking about⌠for example⌠someone throwing a trick that isnât really horizontal and saying that its a good yoyo for horizontal⌠thatâs misleading⌠have you ever spoken about things outside of your skill level? I personally donât think so⌠so my friend that post⌠had nothing to do with you. I support, comment, and like every review video I have seen of yours with a positive comment⌠could you not agree with that lol? So if I had a problem with what you are doing⌠why would I waste my time showing you so much support? Time is money, money is time. This just goes to showâŚno matter how positive you are⌠some people just want to have something negative to say to you. Get to know me before you pass judgment on me. Have a great day

Also⌠there is no âtrendâ there are only 2 posts (why did you stop learning, and the reviews post) out of the many threads I have created⌠that one could say is âcontroversialâ and I wouldnât even say the stop learning could be considered controversial because the why did you stop learning is more about stating the reason or reasons that caused you to stop⌠it was not letâs âdebateâ why you shouldnât stop!

the heck did i come back to.
Cotton is not being malicious about this thread in particular. He asked a question about a product, I chimed in with my opinion. Pros with decades of experience did as well.
I guess our error was to not receive this bearing brand with the same open arm enthusiasm as him? We do have valid reasons to not to do so though.

Wow. Pretty sad that me simply pointing out that you have a tendency has led to this all-out offensive-defensive on your part. Speaks to your insecurities, naw?
No need to go all emo, lament how much you have âsupportedâ me, and act like I just launched this huge personal attack on you.
And to act like your âsupportingâ me makes it uncool of me to not be 100% supportive of you⌠I never signed a contract pledging that I would only say nice things about Cotton because he chose to watch YT vids and comment. I appreciate that, but it doesnât make you bulletproof.
As for Nightshadow guy⌠I doubt anyone will question the intelligence. But he has a propensity for telling people how to play with their toys even when they are already happy with how they do so. Nothing personal on my part toward him⌠But I think we are allowed to see one issue with how someone comports themselves and note it, no

There was no errorâŚI respect you and everyoneâs opinion. The problem arose when @Roy_Dodge (someone I been heavily supporting) came in and acted like I was this terrible person on the forum thatâs just here to stir the pot and create controversy. Iâm just here to help move the community forward, have a nice conversation, and promote love and positivity as well as helping others.

I ainât trying to be bullet proof but its obvious when someone is on me just to be on me lol. Prime example⌠you said you were bored of yoyoing/ buying yoyosâŚI suggested maybe trying to learn some new tricks to make the hobby fun again and not be stale⌠you hit me with thanks for your âsageâ advice which you were obviously joking. But yet⌠you got another comment very similar⌠and you reacted much differently to that comment.

Something I can advice is that you shouldât victimize yourself so much and so easily here. Roy never called you a terrible person here. He just pointed out how it is strange that a lot of topics you start end up being controversial. Even at the heigth of his accusations, all he did was mention how you seem to deflect the heat with a âhave a blessed dayâ.
Also, supporting someone does not entitle you to be free from criticism from them.
Now what youâre doing is that youâre just dropping attitude about Roy on your responses to others, something that just comes off as childish.
If you guys really canât have a discussion without it becoming personal, or without being able to handle completely opposing viewpoints without providing solid arguments for your discussion, maybe then just drop it?

Havenât changed a bit since pre-school.
Even back then, I tried to tell the other three year olds that hot wheels cars were designed to be rolled on the ground, not ingested orally.

I donât have an attitude tbh. If you think so thats your opinion and I respect it. Also, I donât feel entitledâŚI just simply donât agree. I have made many postâs and I donât think many of them could be considered controversial if going off the definition. Thatâs just my opinion though
People only see what they want to see.
