Like? Please I want to know one...

Edit: well you've made some good ones, but most of them more experienced players already know...
There are examples all over the thread. You jsut have to look (hard). Most of the competitives (save a lot on here) have just not given them a thought. The ones who actually argued their points against them, thank you.

No, it's not ok, it's medicore. If even!

I said most casuals are misinformed, I know there are cool ones like you.
*Looks around*
me? It's kinda nice that we can argue without totally hating on one another.

I'm a humble 'casual' player (I've been to one tournament, didn't get owned, however that's beside the point), and I have zero problem with tournament rules, zero problem with advanced techs, and zero problem with lack of items. My only problem, in the defense of the other humble 'casual' players here, is that we generally get lumped in with the flaming ignoramuses that cause most of the annoyances here.

Yes, you may be a 'pro', and you probably are better than me, but that doesn't mean my opinion isn't worth sh*t just because I haven't beaten any big names, and I don't 'suxxorz ****** gg lol' because I don't consider myself 'competitive'. I'm working on it. I came to SWF to learn how to get better to play at that level (well, I first came to argue with an idiot). A few people here *cough* give you 'pros' a really bad name though (luckily, it's just a few). Like Red Exodus said, it would be a lot better if we all just got along as a community, because that's what we're here for. I mean no harm with anything I've just said, and if I get some sort of ignorant response back, it only shows how much damage has been done by arguments like this.
That's like me so much it's not even funny.

I also would like to get along with casuals. Casual players are people too and we as a community have no reason to flame and fight with each other.
I think that there will always be people who whine and are ****s, and people who can actually get a point across.

I'll have to agree with all the competitive smashers in this thread. You casuals are losers. And unless you go to tourneys you'll always be losers for the rest of your life. We hate you all.

I doubt, it might be someone who heard he got banned and decided to join, but I could be wrong.

I think I stumbled upon yet another area of misunderstanding. The OP is not an opening to a subjective debate. It is a list of facts. Sharing of opinions is not what we're doing here.

Buzz, I actually think someone posted the EXACT same thing you did earlier in the thread, Im just too lazy to go look for it.
Well, it's starting to bother me. "The grass is green." "In my opinion, the grass is more of a neon orange." Ignorance is running rampant throughout this thread. People are complaining that their opinions are being ignored, but they don't understand that their opinions don't matter. This is not a discussion to "reach an agreement". This is a statement of the way things are, and casual smashers take all kinds of offense!

Yeah, I had to chew up a guy in the Advanced Techniques thread for saying some stupid stuff, mostly misguided opinions like pros 'stand still' and wait to unleash our secret 'advanced techniques'.
