A Link to the Links

A Simple Guide to Our Most Important Threads!​
[collapse=Introduction]Hey Link's! :link:

I apologize about the lack of work that I've done here. I've been a mod for the Melee Link boards for almost 2 months and I have yet to get to know you guys or even help out. But that's all about to change!

I plan on getting this board organized and pushing it in a direction such that we can achieve something great.

I volunteered to become a mod for Melee Link because there weren't any active moderation in here. Some of you may have spotted me posting here and there. I'm mostly a Brawl player :scared: but I have recently started learning and playing and loving Melee Link.

So the first thing I noticed is that there is a number of stickied threads. Most were outdated and some useless. So I went and unstickied a few of these threads and compiled them all in here.

If there's any threads that you want to add in here just let me know!

Very nice editing, Scabe. Good work!
Sticky please :p

It's just too bad that most of the threads aren't really that active anymore. But I hope that it'll change soon ;)

Thanks Trinity :awesome:

I wonder how we can make a thread that can answer peoples problems to specific matchups? I've noticed a lot of threads asking for matchup advice.

Yoo sorry for the late reply haha

A matchup discussion thread is already present, so idk if we need another matchup thread. And there's always the Link social thread to asnwer people's problems and stuff, also quite possibly the most active thread on the Link boards right now lol

What I would really looove to see is a revamp of the Link Video Thread, that thing hasn't been updated for ages now haha. I might give it a try actually if I ever find the time, but if anyone's volunteer to take it over, feel free to do so, I'm not in a hurry :p

This makes me feel bad for not having my laptop with me that contains the stage stuff for my guide.

Darn it I need to get that back.

My battlefield plays Link? I guess you just have to get used to a tiny hookshotable spot. I sometimes go for the part underneath if I can because it's useful to tech off of.

I didn't say there's anything wrong with ponies. Just that...well it seems everyone who likes the show is a college aged male.

This makes me want to make a pony drinking game. My Little Pony: Liquor is magic. <googles to see if somebody has already made one>

I know what you mean, I see certain friends are into it now; like you said there's nothing wrong with it though. Also is it me or do these threads seem more active lately?

I've started a thread here that is intended to compile all of Link's advanced techniques into one place. Please add it to this thread (it may even get some feedback and become better if you do!)
