I must say, Cort, I'm having a little more fun with this than I should. But, I'll continue it.
1st point: I didn't miss the point of your posts. I understand that your opinion is that, based on your experience with Melee, you feel that Peach will not perform well in tournaments. While i disagree with your opinion and your reasoning for your opinion, it is in fact your opinion, and you are entitled to it, and i respect that. I even see your points in your reasoning, but since I don't agree with them, and I have Peach in my name(COMPLETELY moot point, and i'm surprised you had to fall back on that, lol), that makes me a "scrub" automatically. You've never even met me, much less played me. Good logic. You get a gold star. Also, with your logic, it doesn't make too much sense to people that have played any other competitive game besides Smash. I'm DID NOT ask anyone who played GGXX Slash who would be good ahead of time in Accent Core. It would not make sense to take their opinions to heart. The system was changed along with character balances. Some characters even developed a new fighting style and beasted, becoming much better than in the previous installment of the game. Of course, the game was out for more than a month before any major judgement was made.
2nd Point : I didn't tell you to eat a jock strap. I tried to COERCE you to eat a jock strap, and I thought it would be a good motivator for a lot of the peach players in this thread, but I never told you to eat one. Who has the bad reading comprehension again? I think that go without answer, but since I had to explain the Family Guy joke for you, I'll go ahead and say you. Seriously, as passionate as a lot of people in this thread are about playing Peach, you don't think the jock strap thing would be a good motivator? It should motivate you to be awesome to, so you won't have to eat it. Win/Win situation, imo. Also, making a joke during a discussion does not make someone immature. I think you take yourself way too seriously, so i thought i would poke fun at that aspect.
3rd Point : You have to give respect to earn it, man. Again, I have zero respect for you because of a video game. I don't care if you were good at Melee, and you don't automatically gain my respect because of that fact. I agree that Dark Pch gave his opinion very respectfully...but you didn't. Calling people 'fanboys/girls' simply because they don't agree with you is ludicrous. I am not a Peach fanatic, but the character is funny, so I like her. And, *gasp* I don't agree with you. See, I thought that, while being competitive, a game is indeed that, a game. The main purpose of a game is to have fun, so people are going to have fun with the character they like, obviously. Telling them that it is a waste of time and tournament experience is not only a false statement, it is extremely pompous as well. And so far as my posts being a pain to read, either learn to deal with people disagreeing with you, or get a new prescription for your glasses, if reading is the problem.
4th Point: I don't think you have the attention span of a cow. I think you are a very intelligent person, maybe even cool to a point, but I feel also that you ignore people you feel are "beneath" you or don't give you "proper" respect, and that I'm included in the "beneath" you group. Again, very pompous to say that you and Vidjo SHOULD be swaying our decisions in a new game. If it were Melee, I could understand that, but not in Brawl, and it is MAAAD arrogant for you to think so. I'll consider your opinion, sure, but I'll take it with some salt, not flat out obey it. I will apologize, though, because i think i included Vidjo's name in this, and he really didn't do that much outside of voice his opinion. So, my b, Vidjogamer. However, this does lead me to...
5th Point : Regardless of how I feel about it, what you top players say to these other guys really affects their decisions, and you should think about that before posting things. If you really LIKE them hanging on your every word and mindlessly following you, or you just don't care, then please ignore this point. But, you should really think about things before you say them, and how they will affect other people, not just yourself. Also, I don't think i ever presented myself as an idiot. Flaming you, ok, but an idiot? Nah. People can present their points well without you agreeing with them, regardless of what goes on in YOUR head.
I think I'm done for this post. Comments?
