Hello Aw-Friends,
I don´t think that Ryan is a troll & that he has bad intentions first hand, he is new here (NEB) so it would be cool
if we could give him some room (time) & credit to bring himself positive for the Aw-community...right?? .
If you think/feel that he is way too much on the gas-pedal for a New-member..then i think it would be better to tell him this through an argumentation what or why you think its wrong instead of name calling or chasing him down!.I just don´t think its good for all of us that way in the end.
Right now it sounds like 10 vs 1 & i don´t think its a cool way like that for anyone here.Please don´t put to much pressure on him.We all have our opinions about what is good & bad...fair enough.
We don´t need to chase or threat each other or what ever for a reason.
We are all athletes & aw-friends with failures & success...some more then the others.thank you for understanding.

@ryan:Some of the things/issues that you want to see changed, can not be changed on a message board.Beside of having fun here...you can just give some impulse &
change opinions with others just to a limited degree..this is what a message-board is about.Nothing more..Nothing less.
I just tell you how i see this for years: (and i am not the only1 seeing this)
In general...the past 7 years that i am reading this board, i seldom saw someone admitting here to something that is/was wrong.Even when it was as true as something like the earth goes around the sun...its not easy for everyone to do that anyway.
Here on this board
sometimes sadly
its not about what you are saying.its about who is saying.It is 100% wrong to think that way because of many reasons... & there are some double standards for some of the members sadly...but you can not change how some members unfortunately want to act/think like that for what ever reason they have.They can only change this kind of thinking by themselves if they can realize the benefits of thinking other then before..
no one else!.So If you know/feel you are right...you don´t need to prove it here with any price...i suggest to work on something...somewhere to achieve better results on your purpose.Put yourself in some Aw federation-position
to bring your ideas to the right tables... Just think about it...what should people that you are talking about that way do now?? should they come out and say that you are right and they will never do it again??...from a logical aspect i surely doubt that...so what could in best case happen here??
I am involved in sport for many years & i can tell you this...All sports nowadays are full of those kind of threads,
its okay to change opinions and its important for all athletes to make better decisions...this is the positive thing behind changing opinions but nothing more .they are 1000 for it and 1000 against it (idk) but nothing will ever be solved 100% or changed 100% on a message board.
I appreciate your energy & fresh ideas that you try to bring in Ryan.And you sound smart & not crazy at all.(I think others can see this too).Its good to
have a Board-Member that has so much potential to work on good things for armwrestlingdon´t let some possible frustration take the overhand now.
Remember always that
"Rom is not build in 1 day."..
stay positive & give respect to achieve respect...always...& i saw that you know very good how to do that..
please keep the respectful track...don´t slip now to a** ****ing or other examples like that.You don´t need it at all..
You already stated your thoughts & facts & others who wanted to react on it told you their views...you are not losing anything if you concentrate yourself on something else for now.You don´t need to have the last word on that thread or any thread.
No need to bring this to a so called "point of no return"!.********************************************
Final thought: *
As we all should know, we are not perfect....life is to try to be a better Human....nothing else is important at the end of the day.Nothing really...some realize this as a Child...some realize this as Grand-pa...and some don´t realize it at all*
But if someone disagree with this or with me, then i wish him health & good things anyway....even much more!.
I thank everybody...you are my Aw-friends!...this is the reason why i took time 2 write this to maybe just maybe help 1 % .
Now i go to do something with more fun with my time
