Well, here’s the thing. It’s a fine line between discussing topics with people who disagree with you, and verbal warfare from intense opinions. I have seen SO many threads like this get locked after written shouting matches. It is so very easy to devolve into that.

So when someone comes in with a really intense reply, and it seems pretty clear that they were more interested in expressing anger than having a discussion (which I totally understand by the way), I generally make the call that its best not to take those head on. Trying to keep the peace and all that.

And I apologize if my attitude seems toxic to you. I really do. I was more trying to have good manners than undercut anyone.

I think the anger in here is being really over emphasized . Most of the responses I have seen here have been about expressing their point.

What kind of response is it that you were looking to engage with this post?

I say this kindly but it feels like this post was more about making yourself seem superior under the veil of “I’m tying to motivate you to practice more yo-yo”

What is this topic even about? It’s funny as well as sad but I think I will stop reading it.

Personally I have hit a plateau in my yoyoing which I am completely content with. I use a yoyo as an escape, as a way to decompress from a day. I don’t need any more tricks in my bag to do so. Sure if I were to take my throwing time each day and work on new tricks I don’t doubt I would see an improvement but that isn’t why I’m throwing.

That said you will never see me complain about not being able to do something, or saying I don’t have the time to learn.
