    He's been on my ignore button list for past 2 years... And I only click to reveal his post when I feel like it.

    Lol... I think everyone's here for a reason. And I'm thinking perhaps the mods (or gods ) put him here for us to practice our patience and tolerance, or even to help us temper our addiction to this forum.

    And quite occasionally I do find it interesting or even slightly amusing.

    Compared to some of the other recalcitrants we have had to deal with, it is harmless. Maybe a bit irritating to some but definitely nowhere near any threshold. After all, each person has their own particular personality.

    If there are off topic posts, you can let the Mod know or preferably, just put a reply in the thread saying it is off topic with a link to the relevant other thread if it exists.

    Just to explain, some people deliberately do not care about a thread and deliberately take a thread off topic. We definitely don't like this.

    Sometimes off topic things come up and if it is only two or three posts, and the thread comes back on track, we don't mind.

    Noted for the future. Thanks Cheung.

    Back to the topic. Just noticed that Kolding changed back to the ARC11 from the DUO10. Maybe old news for some but not for me

    i thought by the recent announcement of new launched AX88S/D, we would see some players using (testing) it in indo master. But not really, it seems....

    Factoring in adjustment period during training while on tour now. I'd say give them All England to debut it. That's pretty much what YY does really.

    Doubt it. They've already pushed out a new repaint of the ARC10. That's a 10 year old racket.

    speaking of arcsaber11, do you know if there is any performance difference between the new color version and the original? some said the new one is stiffer.

    I do find it a touch stiffer. And a bit more head weight. It plays the same still though.

    And here I am, silently praying that the AT700 will get the same treatment!

    This racket will stay until end of this year at least.

    Can't find it. But it's basically the very similar to the ARC10 PG Legend's Vision. But no black accents at all.

    As much as we'd hope, rather unlikely with the ZFII being more or less a direct replacement. Really dreaming about a Ti-10 revival run though, wouldn't that be something!

    more and more players using axtrox series, both in singles and doubles.
    saw Nehwal using AX77, in addition to Intanon and Yamaguchi.
    then on male doubles, Gideon. And mix doubles, Jordan.
