Thread: I'm about "Avengered Out"! (modding the Duncan Avenger)

I like how what you said in that PM only made you look more unprofessional than ever.

Oh and my private life is none of your friggan business!


EDIT: Actually to let everyone know. He asked why I was on all the time. Do I have a job? Yet he's on as much as I am? Pathetic.

Yes I do have a job sister. So does my wife and my 17 year old son. do you feel better now?

Double Edit: I love this statement. "I pretty much say what I want to whom I want. Thats how it is."
That was said in a pm to me. Its funny that you couldn't tell me that on the boards. As I have said I have nothing to hide. Why are you hiding behind a PM?

Jeez man.
Stop taking pot-shots at respected and awesome members of the community.
I looked at your mods. Almost all of them are multiple pics of the same thing, just applied to different yoyos.
God, I wish I could polish the rims of an 888 and put z-stacks on it!
Oh, wait.
I DID do that, minus the z-stacks. Here, let me brag about it.
And, whoa! How about I make an avenger weigh less than a paperclip by cutting parts of it off! And, I should do it to SEVERAL Avengers to make them all seem different!
Then lets clean the bearing!
Oh, better Idea! Lets do it to a fh2!
THey won't know what hit them! My precision mods are so complex!

And, since when is a silicone reccess job considered a major mod?
I mean, correct me if I am wrong, but the ring mods and hub replacements that people like kyo, icthus, jeffery pang, ricerocket, and luke vader do, along with all the other painting and custom work they do, is a lot more difficult than shaving some plastic off of an avenger, or putting sandpaper to an 888.

Also, maybe you should try to stop defending yourself and listen.
You may not realize it, but you come off as a very cocky person.
Just tone it down a bit.

Well I can't PM anymore due to that stupid 8 pm's an hour rule so here goes.

I don't care who you are or what you can do.
I think its cool that you use basically the same lathe I do but mine is bigger than a craftsman. Does that make my lathe better? Absolutely not. ( humbleness right there in case you don't know what it means) Also I deleted that last pm because I don't want to know your real name. Why are you trying so hard to be better than me? I don't get it. We play with toy's. Now you're trying to sound like the bully of the block and say that everything you ldo is better than me. Even most as you put it. Ego's are for insecure people. DIG IT?

There was more to that 888 than that. It was totalled! (I wish I took before and after pics, but, I didn't. Didn't see the reason, as I didn't know about this, as well as other sites)

You see the Avenger stuff simply because that is my current challenge. Read the name of this post...you'll see what I was trying to accomplish.

Cocky...yes....I agree.

Dude!

What are you talking about?! Who says I'm trying to be better than you?! Where does THAT come from? Do you need Ritalin or something? Geez!

Not all forums are for everyone. They're not a one size fits all sorta thing. I think AC's analogy to a small club made elsewhere is a good one.

Some people may find they are a better fit at places like yoyoguy or yoyonation where they may find they are more readily understood and appreciated.

Who's "AC" and what analogy?

Yes, I would bet some people would fit better there....

This guy's a JackAss....he only quotes PART of the message.

I explained HOW I can be online all hours of the day....I had nothing to hide. Why this dude takes offense if beyond me.

Someone needs to get him his meds though....he's GOT to be bipolar.

Yes, I did say...." I say what I want, when I want to whom I want. Thats how it is" Simply because its true. If you're a Jackass....I'll tell you. No holds barred. (see above) HOWEVER, thats NOT what I PM'ed him about. Again, with the selective quotes.

I could care less about this dudes private life. Really.

Would yuo like me to post all of it?

Trashed?
Please.
My 888 was thrown off a parking deck.

I sent the PM to you to keep who I do work for under wraps, as I haven't OK'd mentioning them in public....so go ahead if you want, as I didn't mention their names....Jackass.

You should change your screen name from Icthus to Jackass.

I'll fix it....within reason!
Wait....WHY would you throw an 888 off a parking deck?

haha You are refering only one pm AND its a family business. Whats the problem?
I meant all of the PM's.

Oh and do you think he'd let you fix it?

Here is something that seems funny to me. This whole arguement started when you said (in another thread) for kids to not mod yoyo's without a "precision lathe". That was on the 14th of August. After a TON of arguments and dissagreements you pm me 4 or 5 days later and ask this: "Hey,

Steve gave me a signature 888 that has "wobble" to it. From what I can see, the stacktowers/axle hole is off center or bent just a hair.

How would you correct that?"

If you are so much better than me why are you asking me for advice? Hmmm?

No, I did not throw it off..
5a happens yo.

Because it's a meaningless toy.

Something you forgot to understand.

ModFather. Stop double posting, edit the original post. And really, you're not making this better for you at all.

"AC" is Atomic Cow. He has an analogy that TheYo is like a small club posted in another thread. Here it is in it's entirety:

Internet forums are like buildings in many ways. Some are big impersonal places that remind you of a mall or school, some are smaller places that are more like a house. TheYo is one like a small club.

Like a small club we've got regulars that you'll see often and folks that you'll just see once. We've got some bouncers (the mods), a sound and light guy (me), and a club owner (Mike). You'll see the bouncers a lot, the sound guy less often, and the owner once in a while. Like a club we want everyone to have a good time.

Running a club costs money. We sell drinks (yo-yos) to pay for the running costs. We like people to talk about the drinks and drinking because that sells more drinks. We love folks who get into serious detail about the drinks, even if the drink isn't one we sell because it still helps sell other drinks.

We're even OK with the regulars asking other folks at our club to go home with them and talk more about drinks. We know the regulars and they're good folk. Bad folks get dealt with by the bouncers quickly and quietly as too not interfere with everyone else's good time.

We're just not comfortable sending folks home with people we don't know.

So how to deal with this?

One solution might be adding a new subforum (VIP room) under the review forum for review link posts. We could set it up so that anyone who wanted to post a new thread there would need to be a full member (30 days/30 posts), but anyone can read or comment on it.

While it would be nice to have the full review here, I understand that's not in the cards. However I'd appreciate if you took steps to make sure that your site is archived in the Internet Wayback Machine: http://web.archive.org/collections/web.htm That way if you go offline, the info is not lost. Click on the help link to find out how to be included.

You're right....I guess I should have wrote...

"How would you correct that?"

I have a few ideas in my head on how to do it, but I thought..."hey! this guy is on the TRUSTED MODDERS LIST....Let's see if he has a different idea.

Sorry I asked. Jackass.
