Today, I finished a website that I have been working on for ages for a friend. He tried to repay me by offering to teach me to play table tennis. FML

YDI for not setting terms before starting the project. How does it feel to be used?

Dude. Just learn it, enter some tournaments, win all the prize money and don't share with him!

Did you agree to do it by just him asking or did he say he would pay you? If he said he would pay then don't give him the log in information until he either pays you a flat fee up front or signs an written and notarized agreement to pay a percentage with you as a "partner". And if he refuses use the website yourself, what's the problem here?

Well, if he is a good player it would be extremely useful! It's a great game to play with your buds and earn some quick cash.

That's a good deal if he's a pro. Lessons are expensive. If not, FYL.

Or he could screw with the website and have a little fun! I'd love to see his friend's face when he tries to use the website. EDIT: Forgot I was on random FMLs. I guess this comment will never be seen by anyone. Oops.

Maybe if you got really good and started betting money. But he would probably just try to teach you how to golf.
