Whats up everybody! Kenny Shults YouTube Clip

I suppose life is too short for some people to waste even 56 seconds watching a video without massive tricks getting nailed. I just don't share the same opinion and I enjoy watching any video the footbag community has to offer.

There are plenty of things I don\'t enjoy, and I\'m happy to give feedback when I see something that I don\'t enjoy. To call that a "put down" is ludicrous. If I call somebody a c*nt and they tell me they don\'t like being called a c*nt, does that mean they\'re putting me down?

Does everybody agree that the opinion that this video is not very exciting is a valid opinion? If so, what is wrong with expressing that opinion? I\'d rather be known as somebody who you can trust to give you an honest judgement, than be one of the many people on this forum who I\'d never ask their opinion on things, because I constantly see them be too nice rather than honest. Maybe it\'s not such an issue in this topic, but it\'s especially important when you give feedback to a new person on their own moves. It\'s far better when you\'re new at something to get honesty than false praise.

Your opinion that the video is not exciting is totally valid (even if I don't agree with it), but unless you disliked the video to the degree that you feel personally violated by it and you were defending yourself against it, your "calling someone a c*nt" analogy was was totally not. I'd think someone who likes to argue as much as you would've come up with something better than that

I would not post anything unless it's something positive about the footage.

That's rubbish. If people don't get criticism, they won't know if people are secretly looking down on them or not. I can't speak for everybody, but I'd rather know what I do wrong, then keep making the same mistakes without realising it.

I loved watching those trick attempts more then reading some peoples comments on this forum

You are needlessly antagonistic and negative when you post, you lack politeness and tact, and you are incapable of admitting when you are wrong.

You're welcome.

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 17 Sep 2007 07:01

When have you ever admitted you're wrong?

edit; omg on the first page of my list of posts

edit2; corrected spelling mistake. Given how often you attack me, it's hard to see this is just another effort by you to put me down.

My wrong what?

And come on Jeremy, if you fail to see the humor of my last post, then you really are beyond hope.

You were sooooo asking for it.

I found jeremy's original post in this thread a little dry, and it's hard to read it without perceiving a somewhat unpleasant and / or condescending tone, but if you really read it for precisely what it is, I think you'll agree that there have been a few significant overreactions in the responses to said original post.

On a brighter note, Kenny Schultz is great, I wish the portland crew could put more footage out of him. Actually I would like the modified community to see a whole lot more footage of the entire P-town crew. I can't believe how large they have gotten and the kind of talent that is coming out of there.

The video was worth the "discussion" it sparked.

Ken Vs. Jeremy...once again

I think everyone took that post as a diss because the 2nd reply on this thread basically tells ppl not to watch the video because it may be boring.

I know everyone in the footbag world is keen on feedback, but there is a difference btwn constructive criticism and judgement.

You said you like to judge. That's the wrong way to go about it. There is always a positive way to put out the information you want ppl to have.

Saying you don't like something is completely unnecessary, and in no way is it constructive. And being happy to do so makes you look like a very angry person.

Next time Hulk posts a video, hopefully it will be longer and include more footage of good footbag runs, not good players hitting easy moves.

As usual on modified, criticising something means that people personally attack you if they disagree with what you're saying.
