Does putting the mousepad at an angle on the edge of your desk make it wear out sooner than if you lay it flat? I want to keep a bit of space between my wrist and the edge so my arm stays comfortable, but is this tilt causing me to tear or fray the pad faster than keeping it level?

I think, if it sticks out past the table's edge, the sharpness makes all the difference. Every time you put your hand on it, it might bend a little bit. How good the material is will decide how long it lasts. A quality pad won't wear down quickly.

I understand, so if you put a mousepad that's a bit too close to the edge of a pad without stitching, it might actually wear out faster than usual.
