Anyone know of a way to reduce the bounce-back on HAPP joysticks? Will tightening the spring by adding washers do the trick, or just make the stick harder to move?

The first time I noticed how annoying this was while playing frogger, and would frequently jump out of the way of danger, only to have froggy jump right back in front of a car after releasing the stick.

Then last night, while setting up my control panel with mk (not Mortal Kombat) I pulled the stick hard left and released it. mk reported -14- keypresses during the bounce!! (left-right-left-right-boioioioioing)

Any clues anyone?
