You made a company, he made 3 yoyos poll, why zone in on these three? YYf is a major brand and it is obvious you made that for entertainment/ info on Opinion. while this is very specific, If you dont mind me asking Ultimate YO why these yoyoās?
Since I know he only made this thread to decide what to get:
If you want a small round yoyo, get the 888x. If you want a flat rimmed yoyo, the Dv888 is for you. But, if you want a more unique shape, get the Lunatic.
See, was that so hard? Just ask, donāt try and be clever about it. When you make polls based on what other people like, so you can decide what to get, it is most likely you will end up with something you donāt like.
Between me and him, we already own all 3 of these yo-yos (except I have the 888 Classic, he just didnāt know which model I had), so it was purely seeking opinions in this case. This is my 10 year old brother Samad and heās really excited to be a part of this community. Be nice to him.
Yup, second time Iāve seen it happen, with Samad being blamed in both cases. In those cases, Samad wasnāt very mean at all. One time he was joking, and the joke wasnāt mean, nor directed at the guy. The other time (this case) Samad was helping the guy get a yoyo he would like, instead of just stating his opinion and letting him get something he most likely wouldnāt like. Not mean at all.
Yes, agreed, but the same applies for both sides. In my case, I wasnāt saying that he was necessarily being mean, and the ābe niceā comment was half joking as well. Weāre both at a disadvantage here because there is no tone of voice that can be identified through words typed on the screen; all we have are little smiley faces whose meaning can be every bit as vague as without. I canāt help but feel that much of the time, your (Samad) implied tone does come off a bit abraisive. And for a young kid whoās trying hardto gain acceptance from a community who shares in his interest, I couldnāt imagine that tone being taken any lighter, whether or not it was intended as such. But the thing that got me was that he told you that he wasnāt deciding a purchase, which was every bit true (seeing as he owns the Lunatic and I own the DV888 and 888, , and then I read āSince I know he only made this thread to decide what to get:ā. Iām not sure if that was the joke, but again Iām working off the ambiguous words on the computer screen, so I canāt really tell. Anyway, this wasnāt intended to turn into a huge flaming argument, just saying jokes are cool if they are presented as jokes (I cracked up at your āLet me Google that for youā post on that guyās Kickside review thread), but sometimes it seemingly turns a bit harsh as the tone of voice is lost in translation.
Oh, my apologies. I hadnāt realized it was my duty to hand everything everyone wanted on a gold plate, and make sure my tone was completely identified in all of my posts.
