Do you think it'll be safe to tighten a LanLan 2x2?

It locks up a bit sometimes, which I find annoying. But I'm worried about stripping one of the threads, which actually happened on another cube, even though I didn't try tightening it too much.

Even though I always hear people say you should loosen your cube, I've always found that if my cubes become looser, they lock up more for some reason.

I actually took the risk, and tightened it, only one screw would tighten, as the others were already tight, but it does seem quite a bit better, although I'm not sure if it's back to how it used to be.

Loosen it so it loose but doesnt pop. Your not going to stip the threads on a LanLan, they use good screws. You probably striped the threads on a cube with crap screws like a maru. I have striped screws on cube but they were my flowerminx and maru 4.
