    When we run DSHype contests and giveaways each month, do you think we should include Pros as potential winners??? Disqus....


    Also thanks @htimSxelA for all the contributions!

    I think that the fact that alex is sponsored contributes to why he gets as many hype points as he does but i think it should be up to him tbh.

    PS i do appreciate your activity alex!

    To be straight, most of the prizes offered up have been things I can get my hands on easily anyways, so I'm cool with being voided from the regular contests. Maybe if there are some community-decided contests in the future or something that could change, but otherwise...
    Someone catch up! I'm starting to look like a super-nerd with all these pts

    I kind of just assumed @htimSxelA had every kendama on the face of the earth already.

    Anyway we value his contributions here and we are working on some exciting stuff behind the scenes. Stay tuned.

    Kinda hard to catch up when you've been a member since September. But I guess the real action just started

    Also keep in mind he thoughtfully responds to almost every concern/matter in the forums! Even @Ben Lowe who is not sponsored receives a large amount of hype points as well. They provide quality content to the forums and i think sponsorship is irrelevant!

    True, plenty of other sponsored players post here as well. Posting thoughtful replies is what makes forums interesting!

    I feel that if a pro wins a competition on here and wants to keep the dama(s) then more power to them. I feel like more often than not a pro will win some package and keep one or two items that they don't have or are interested in and then give the rest away because they know that someone else will appreciate it more. I'm all for the pros winning if they earn in!

    I really don't mind if it's a giveaway such as the one of PAINT A PRO I really like seeing everyone's content so I think they should and like @htimSxelA he host jams every Tuesday at his shop and he gives a lot away so Idc I think it's great he deserves stuff
