Even though they both last a long time, the Z plastic is more durable in my experience." Then someone else will post "Innova is nothing but trash"(or something to that effect).

The first post is sharing an honest evaluation. The second post is an insult to the thought the first person put into his post. Because it makes no arguement, it just appears as a non-sensical slam. I guess that's what is fun for people. It seems to show people that trying learn from each others' critical observation is less important than who can talk (or type) the loudest.

This is just my impression. If it's all in fun, that's great. Sometimes things seem to get so one-tracked on this forum that I get tired of hearing the same old empty words. Again, that's my problem.

I'm not saying that anyone on this board is a disrespectful person. I just hope it's something disc golfers stay aware of. I seen many flagrantly disrespectful people do a lot of damage to the impressions of people they didn't even know. This sport is too young for players to get caught up in that kind of bs. Attitude is everything. A lot of kids now days are getting away with taking on attitudes that make themselves impossible to teach. This country's future is gonna go down the crapper if the kids of today don't learn to respect other people and education.

Hows about them Wraiths'.........they sure fly better than a cowchip! :lol:

Anybody new to the game is gonna pick up whatever they want brand wise, or what their friends refer them to initially...but like anybody playing the game for any amount of time (be it 1 round or 1000 rounds) they are gonna throw what they want regardless of what anyone says. The problem I see with the constant back and forth about brands on the forum is that the genuine opinions of the subject (such as "The Wraith should be illegal") get lost in the "blah, blah, blah" brand wars banter. It makes it difficult to click on a topic and actually read about what you are looking for......kinda like the football threads on here....for the most part they are kept mostly to the subject as it appears in the title....where as the discs threads (one brand or the other) get broke into several pages of "this brand better than that brand" gobble-dee-goo( :D ) making it hard to read or even follow. The spirit of the forum is fun and like I said people are gonna really form their own opinions on the course about product. It is nice to read other golfers input about the discs, though, sometimes a little hard to follow!! :) I just hope everybody has a good round on any given day with whatever disc you throw!! 8)
