Can I just say something?

You guys are overly negative and pessimistic about stuff and then you have the gall to mock others about being more positive. A good chunk of the time, you aren't even making the most logical conclusion when doing so. You're not even being cautious either.

This group thinks they're better than everyone else and has shown that multiple times.

There. I said it. I've been wanting to get that off my chest for months.

The circle jerking in this thread has been real. It's a place to go to complain that others don't agree with you.

Other places circle jerk, but for the most part, they know.


@ Frostwraith Frostwraith

@ Burb Burb was quoting the Miyazaki meme.

That should have been very clear. Later in the thread, Burb was baffled people took him seriously. He's really not to blame here.

To be honest, I feel our group has really lost their way. The whole reason we were here was to debunk leaks and rumors. Most of Smash 4's hidden features are uncovered and we have the game in our hands which means their not as prominent.

Before Smash 4 came out, fake leaks roamed the internet and there was no way you could debunk it as we barely knew anything at the time. Leaks today can be debunked on a whim now.

Not to mention the amount of information that happened pre-release (Directs, Pic of the Day, Trailers, etc.) We barely have any info now.

Thing have certainly changed. We're practically in the dark days of Smash speculation now. Because of that, we have nothing else to talk about which leads to drastic results. We essentially use our attitudes when debunking leaks to argue with other users about random petty things. That's why people like me post random memes and gifs in here as well. We have nothing else to do in here.

I know this thread started out from a leaks group, but why not just consider it what it is? a place to discuss Nintendo related things together. We don't necessarily need leaks to be the focal point, it should imo just be for all things Nintendo, new and old and us discussing Nintendo together.

As far as the other stuff, I tend to not pay attention to that stuff in this thread so I won't comment on it as I'd have no idea what I'd be talking about if I tried. Haha.

Should have been, indeed. But it wasn't. That's the problem.

When people make statements without any hints of sarcasm or joking, it's natural that such statements are taken seriously.

I'm aware of the meme, by the way. However, the way he stated it, without any hint of joke, triggered an unnecessary argument. It's not about the action, it's about the consequence.

Tell me, was it a good idea in the first place to do that?

PS: I don't want to start an argument, by the way. I'm not in the mood for this, so I'm out.

Also, I agree this thread, AKA the remnants of the leaks group, has become stale.

In regards to the tasteless "anime belongs to the trash" statement, I expected something better from @ Burb Burb than a bland, baseless generalization spouted just for the sake of stirring an argument.

You just don't piss on an entire medium like that and expect me to be okay with that. I'm not even stating this as an anime fan, but as someone who stands by the basics of logical argumentation.
If you had taken the time to maybe read a couple of the posts I made following that one, you'd understand that I was joking and referencing a meme.

I find it laughable that you'd accuse me of making a "bland, baseless generalization" while simultaneously doing the same thing yourself.

Going against all principles of logical thinking is almost like an offense to me.
You're being terribly offensive right now, then.

"I know about the Miyazaki meme, yet I'm still going to take this post that blatantly references it seriously and throw a hissy fit several hours after the situation dissipated."

Where's the logic in that, Frostwraith?

Saying it verbatim isn't clear enough?

We're talking about Nintendo Directs?

I've noticed something on the Nintendo e-Shop. Do they usually display the Nintendo Direct page in the "More to See" section when one is nearing?

Sometimes I feel like I just do my own thing in this thread whilst others debate.
I guess you could say I'm trying to:
Consistency is Bliss.
By the way any of you guys give me an opinion on Rodeo the Sky Warrior I'm tempted to buy it.
If you're trying to stand out by making "Oh great another argument!" posts, you're not doing a good job of it.

There's about a dozen of them every time anyone in this topic fights.

Pretty much the same for me. I tend to go with the flow.

Just. Stop. Please. We don't need arguments started.

Except I'm not generalizing anything.

Not like I care about petty arguments on the Internet. Come a few days, and I'd forgotten about this.

No, it isn't.

No, when there's no context to make it clear you're alluding to the meme.

People took seriously what was meant to be a joke and an argument unnecessarily ensued. That's the problem.<

Again, not like I care, so I'll be off.

Don't even bother replying to this. I'm not in the mood for this pointless crap.

If you are trying to inciting something better stop cuz I have reasons and priorities to get nervous about this.
Er... it's just NCIS. It practically means a wake-up call in the military according to the show. I just did it for a little humor.

you know what my problem is.This thread does nothing but go around in circles.Saying the same old things,which lead to the same old arguments, which usually involve the same old people and it's just tiring and annoying.I used to love posting in here but now it's not even that fun to do because someone is 8 times out of 10 gonna have a problem with it and know i'm not the only person who fells that way.Rant over

You commented on my post a day after it was made.

No, it isn't.

How could I make it any more obvious than saying it word for word? Was I supposed to put in parenthesis "LOL THAT'S A MEME GAIZ" afterward?

You say you're familiar with the meme, and still chose to take my post seriously for no rhyme or reason. Most of the people who responded seriously seemed to not know it was a meme. You claim you did, so it's 100% your fault for assuming my intention was to piss people off and start an argument rather than just quoting a stupid meme.

Welp. This thread is going to be full of GIFs. Might as well contribute.

Professor Layton's VA caused a stir, saying he did some voice work for Smash. He then went back on it.

You know you have a ****ed up boss fight where his quote is "I knew the other ghost couldn't handle you, I don't think Spooky can handle you, but you won't get pass me"

This red mother....
