What did you get in the mail, 2023

Getting back to the heart of the thread,

I received my new Sugar Glider in brown today. It has a sort of dull/tarnished coppery coloring to it, I like it. I was afraid it was more rose in color from the photos.

Almost too much. Gotta slow down a bit and get to know all these.
MCMO, Summit, SK, VTWO, Sugar Glider, a replacement for my donated FNG, and a bunch of alphaline to keep them all running.


Got my replacement plastic 000 on Saturday (thanks @AndreBoulay ) and will soon hopefully get my dying setup going again.

Who knows? It might very well be a coincidence. After all, Reddit doesn’t show who downvoted your post.


Either way, YoYoFriends has already made their position clear and they are neither upset with you nor upset that the Pheasant Monometal is being compared to the Recognition, so there’s nothing else to discuss here. The situation has been resolved.


My purpose here is simple, it’s to find out the truth of the situation. You assert that YoYoFriends wasn’t happy with comparisons between the Pheasant Monometal and the Recognition. Like many others on the forum, I found it weird. But unlike the others, I didn’t accept it as true and decided to do some digging on my own, because it is just so unlike YoYoFriends, a reputable company with little to no prior history of drama and controversy, to behave in this manner. As it turns out, YoYoFriends weren’t unhappy with comparisons between the Pheasant Monometal and the Recognition. Instead, they are perfectly fine with it. What you purported turned out to be false. But you have managed to convince several people here that YoYoFriends is indeed unhappy with comparisons between the Pheasant Monometal and the Recognition. That changes their impression of the company negatively. Furthermore, this thread is one of the most popular threads on the forums, which means a heck ton of people are seeing the posts here. That will negatively impact YoYoFriends’ reputation as a company. Imagine someone, who is new to yoyo and has zero knowledge about YoYoFriends, sees your posts. Their first impression of the company would be a negative one and they might choose to not support YoYoFriends in the future because of that negative first impression. First impressions do matter and they matter a lot. It doesn’t matter if the impact on their reputation is small or even minute, the fact that their reputation has been negatively impacted by a false statement isn’t fair to them.

So my purpose here is to set the record straight, as the truth is important. I also believe that YoYoFriends doesn’t deserve to have its reputation negatively affected by a false statement.


I think it would do you some good to check the meaning of the words before using them :wink:

TLDR… seriously bro.

hank·er·ing
/ˈhaNGk(ə)riNG/
noun
a strong desire to have or do something

Sounds about right to me. Would you prefer if I called you Hanky Panky?

Wish I could say this is what came in the mail today for a good laugh

Quit a strong desire to have or do something around hanker.

Doesn’t sound right to me.

Quit hankering around as in quit having such a strong desire to be yoyofriends personal damage control representative. At this point I think it’s only making things worse.

I’m not trying to be YoYoFriends’ damage control representative, that isn’t my business. It just so happens that my desire for the truth coincides with that. What I want, and I have repeatedly told you, is the truth. I have a strong desire for the truth and to correct false statements. That is all.

Huge shoutout to @TheSliverKing for messaging me when these went up for sale. They were announced on ig and sold out in under an hour. Was a b grade drop for ano but looks great and is dead smooth.

kinda makes me sad how scarce these are regardless of grade especially since I refuse to join the regular socials… mostly because I want one.

Hydrangea lycoris today, the first full sized bronze yoyo on the market! Pretty sweet throw if I do say so myself. Reminds me the most of the bowl 303 but still very different. Also surprised at how smooth this guy is.
