Mmmm how you got a sub 1 that means 1 second
next time, just put this as a profile post please
There is also the accomplishment thread for these types of posts, or a personal progression thread, or the easy scrambles thread, or just a profile post like you said. Really any of these for times like this will be fine.
Alr mb
That’s amazing!
GUYS JUST LET HIM BE HAPPY
no you need to express yourself like this
I somewhat agree, but the accomplishment thread was created for things like this, so the forums aren't crowded with a million different threads of people's PB's. Or progression threads for if someone wants to consistently add and update PB's and wants to have a consistent place for their times instead of being mixed into the accomplishment thread. As long as it's guided encouragement to post in the proper areas I think it shouldn't discourage most members, but just saying it doesn't need a thread or put it in a profile post isn't a good way to do that.
The problem with almost EVERYONE in this thread, is that they ONLY said to move it somewhere else and not a thread, nobody that said that also congratulated them
exactly my point. Also I feel that if one member mentions it, then don’t repeat it again.
Reason why I barely post on here after progression threads stopped showing on main page. Not the best decision by mods imo. No one cares about each other as much as the faster guys. Reason why everyone basically races to post a WR thread when it happens, or talks crap about Yiheng Wang and all the controversies that had occurred. It’s just a plastic puzzle folks. That’s basically all I see on here
Also, @Garf what does "stopped showing on main page" mean? Is it that when you post in your progression thread nobody can see it? When did this change occur?
Someone complained about progression threads clogging up the main page and said they’d rather see actual stuff about cubing instead of people’s progress. This was during a time where some kids were rage baiting and posting fake progress, and it made this community really toxic about that. The mods listened to the one user’s idea and stopped showing progression threads, and now they’ve become another off-topic discussion. You can still find and make those threads, they will just be a little tougher to find.
1000% agree. I miss when it was focused on the speedsolving community, and not near-exclusively the speedsolving record community. I have a set of eyes and access to WCA Live--I know who gets what. I think records most certainly deserve discussion here, but I enjoyed seeing EVERYONE'S progress in an environment where you could readily ask for or provide advice and positive input. I felt very supported in my improvement and enjoyed seeing that support for other members. I don't post here much either because it's near exclusively forum conps and records with less feeling of community than before.
