- So some comments that I see that I hate are "You should make a how-to video on how to do those tricks" and asking Mike Schneider "Mike, review the G14 shape."
I honestly don't see what's wrong with requesting a how-to video on some tricks. Most of the time, when I see cool tricks that I immediately want to learn, I just try to re-watch the video and learn it from intuition. But with some tricks, you need more than that. What's wrong with asking Mike (or anyone) to review a new fingerboard product? A new product has less information about it around so it is better if that information comes from the one person whose knowledge of it is more than anyone else but also someone so respected and dedicated in fingerboarding. Sure, there would be some bias as he is the one that makes them but people will understand that and Mike doesn't only just promote his own decks. - blosom wrote:

Please do. Anyway, at this stage, I consider myself to be lucky to even get comments on my videos. Sure, some of them are just 1 word comments and most of them are quite short but I am grateful that I even get comments. |

- im not gonna mention names, but i got a message from someone who is sponsored.
this message was sent through the Blosom site to my email. the person in question, im guessing was very young, or is out for everything they can get.
basically they asked me if i would sponsor them alongside their current deck sponsor....so this person would have 2 deck sponsors.
thats just blatantly taking the pi55 IMO. not only does it show disrespect to his current sponsor, but do these people think they will get more free sh1t based on their subscribers list.
they did make a strong point they had 'lots' of subscribers, and the way the message was worded, it was like this point was his trump card into me saying yes.
i might just contact his sponsor and send them the message he sent me.
but yeah, for me, its generally sponsor me.... or can i have free stuff. I don't think Darian has a deck sponsor anymore. |

| Xi, what pisses me off about those comments is that there are already so many how-to videos and why make it more difficult for someone to have to make a how-to video, when there are already plenty out. For example, in vicious274's flatground video, someone suggested he do a how-to video on those tricks, when the tricks have many tutorials already.
Also, what I don't like about people asking a company owner to review their product (I'm going to use deck, because that is more relevant to my comment) is that they will give a biased opinion. I agree that Mike Schneider's would probably be the least un-biased out of all deck owners, but no matter what, it is still there. But I find hearing reviews from fellow fingerboarders is better, because they have nothing to prove by liking a product, so you really get the truth. Also, I don't know about you, but I would rather see amazing fingerboarders like Mike to more sessions than reviews haha. |

| no it wasn't Darian...
also biased reviews get on my nerves.....every deck on the market is a 9.75 on all aspects of its performance/finish etc...all because the people writing the reviews are mates.
in this day and age the only way to trust a decks performance is based on trying it yourself, or go by how much acclaim said deck has in the scene. |

| Exactly my point Blosom. I trust normal fingerboarders more, because they are not necessarily chummy with the company owners. |

| I don't hate any comments, some may annoy me, but I try to ignore them or just reply back as dumb as I feel the comment was. Only thing that kinda irks me is when a whole group is involved in a video and only the person who uploaded it gets the credit, but it's not the end of the world. |

| THIS COMMENT HAS BEEN CURSED ONCE YOU START READING YOU CANNOT STOP. You are now cursed. You must copy and paste this on or you will be killed. Tonight at 12:00am, by Mickey Mouse. This is no joke. So don't think you can quickly get out of it and stop reading it now because Mickey Mouse will come to you if you do not copy and paste this on. He will slit your throat and your wrists and pull your eyeballs out with a fork. And then hang your dead corpse in your bedroom cupboard or put you under your bed. What's your parents going to do when they find you dead? Won't be funny then, will it? Don't think this is a fake and it's all put on to scare you because your wrong, so very wrong. Want to hear of some of the sad, sad people who lost their lives or have been seriously hurt by this comment?
CASE ONE - Annalise Richmond :She read this comment. Rubbish she thought. She ignored it. And now, Annalise dead.
CASE TWO - LouiseWhitefield: She re-pasted this 4 times and when she woke up in the morning her wrists had deep lacerations on each. Luckily there was no pain felt, though she is scarred for life.
CASE THREE - Thomas Crowley: He re-pasted this to 5 people. Big mistake. The night Thomas was lying in his bed watching T.V. The clock shows '12:01am'. The T.V misteriously flickered off and Thomas's bedroom lamp flashed on and off several times. It went pitch black, Thomas looked to the left of him and there he was, Mickey Mouse standing in white rags. Blood everywhere with a knife in his hand then disappeared. The biggest fright of Thomas's life.
Warning... NEVER look in a mirror and repeat -'Mickey Mouse.Mickey Mouse. Mickey Mouse... I KILLED YOUR SON' Is it the end for you tonight! YOU ARE NOW CURSED We strongly advise you to re-post this comment. It is seriously NO JOKE. We don't want to see another life wasted. ITS YOUR CHOICE... WANNA DIE TONIGHT? If you re-paste this comment...
NO TIMES - You're going to die.
1-5 TIMES - You're going to either get hurt or get the biggest fright of your life.
5-15 TIMES - You will bring your family bad luck and someone close to you will die.
15 -25 OR MORE TIMES - You are safe from Mickey Mouse
These.

| What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo. |

| i ignore alot of this now because i get so much of it.Like i just re added the contact form to my site because of it. like kids saying can you sponsor me im good. i just ignore them, or people claim they bought a deck from me and i ask for the transaction # and they lie about it, or saying they didnt get the deck i sent when i have the tracking # . or when people ask to review a deck and i don't reply, mostly people that want something for nothing makes me mad. nothing else really i guess . i just wish people would ask me question on the contact form about my deck , not for sponsoring or free stuff, but hey what can you do, it give me something to do when im bored |

Don't be rude to them, its totally not fair. Theyre not doing anything mean and they clearly don't know any better and are just trying to have fun with fbing. Being mean just turns them away from fbing instead of welcoming them to a friendly environment, either explaining how it owrks or saying you arent sponsoring, or simply ignoring it.
Comments that piss me off are just ones where kids assume things that aren't true, its kinda funny but really stupid. I guess rude isn't really the word. Maybe, very blunt, is a better way of describing it? The most blunt I've ever been was this, and I think it was the day I got like three emails about the same thing: Hello, My Name is Louis I am 14 and I am interseted in being into your team to support your company a lot. My YT-Channel is https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMbxlc3NMloPPG00Wp6y5bw Have a nice day Louis Me: No. Other times I usually tell them that and that there is more to fingerboarding than sponsors, and that I would only really want to support someone with decks if they've already supported me by buying one. It usually depends on my mood when it comes to sponsor me emails. |
