I doubt entire communities hate us. it's pretty much saying that everyone here is a smug prick because I can personally be a smug prick

again, even before me, there were people questioning a lot of the stronger mentalities in that thread. there's likely good people in most communities, it's just that rainbows and sunshine can very easily seem non-existent when the worst of the worst seems incredibly overwhelming
I was given the impression since names like Seagull Joe, ESAM, Xyro, and other BBRoom players started hating on the game. In many of the communities I've been too, those kind of people (as in people who are supposed to represent authority) are supposed to be role models.

doesn't that make it a bit questionable though, when some of the largest members of your community are so deep into their own irony that, from an outsider's perspective, the community seems like it's essentially eating themselves alive

"ignore it and hope it goes away" is a boring way to live life, I prefer to question

Realize that players such as Reflex and Anther enjoy the game as well. I believe Tyrant likes it too? But I'm not too sure on that.

Seeing the PM hate from Brawl players is like deja vu of all the Brawl hate that came from Melee players.
"I like X game and Y game is different. Therefor Y game is trash and the people who enjoy Y game are wrong."

LOL at Espy's Sonic arguments though.
Acting like he knows how Sonic was meant to be played any more than we do as PM players.
He must have some sort of telepathic connection with Sakurai that lets him know what Sakurai had intended for Sonic.

It's pretty much a carbon copy of "How the game is meant to be played"

Which is silly, but whatever.

Most Brawl Sonics are like this.

I think the only former Brawl sonics who play P:M ie converts are FBS, and SuperTH. I was never a Brawl sonic because he was never fun for me.

I will trust sethlon/wiz more than anyone else, because I am relatively positive wiz has yet to make an essay treating an opinion on a character change like a social revolution

I feel that the release of Smash 4, when combined with the eventual retirement of today's biggest Melee stars, will seriously endanger the community as a whole, not just Melee players.

When both of these things happen, people will have three options: play Smash 4, continue to play Melee, or play PM. At the moment Smash 4 looks to be considerably better than Brawl was from a competitive standpoint. Because of this, I feel that most Brawl players, and a few Melee players, will move on to Smash 4.
The brawl players don't want to hear that though. To them they move on to the next smash just because but refuse to admit the reason the brawl community won't and can't sustain itself is that the game is awful.

So they pick on PM to feel like the big man in their grade, after being bullied themselves last school year. The whole " new genner" taunting of people based on their join date from the brawl trolls was extemely middle school.

For lords sake, it seems every rant group around here thinks they have some psychic connection for Sakurai.
We don't know what the man intends each game to become in our hands, and we may never get a full grasp on the thoughts of his. And with that in mind, we are the only foundation our Smash styles thrive on, and splitting apart Smash as a whole just collapses it into a separate set of important resources scattered where the community as a whole can't utilize them.

With that in mind, I do find heavy irony in the Brawl thread's ranters fighting against a game detouring in a direction they don't prefer, On top off that, not all of us wanted to start our competitive gameplay through Melee. Project M's community is a mishmash of players of each game, backroomers, lurkers, and completely new faces as well. Taking the base of Melee's gameplay does not destine us to be tied to the Melee community by the hip, and exclude players of anything else.

Edit: With that in mind, this post was somewhat repetitive in the use of vocabulary....

and for what its worth. sethlon is also bbr lol.

i guess since that p:M is a mismash of all 3 smash games, that we also draw the best and worst from both melee and brawl communities.

i think that as a collective community, we're like mixed babies feel being surrounded by racists.

I can't see much reason to care about sakurai, and that's mostly b/c this ain't something being tinkered by sakurai, it's something being tinkered by people far more competition-savvy, and I highly prefer those people because I can ask them "hey how do you feel about x" and I will get a direct answer about x

It's whatever in the end.

The final product will turn heads and that's all that matters

People dont seem to take into account that P:M isnt finished yet, and judge it as if its done and we're just doing balancing **** now.

if there's one thing that makes NTSC spacies in P:M worth it

it's watching an old spacie player start getting into P:M, do a kill immediately, and there's always a grin on their face like "yep, still got it"

what I'm getting across with here is that wenbo's smile is contagious

Real talk. DMG cracks me up like 76% of the time.
Too many people try too hard at Smashboards.

This whole post is a melee player picking on the entire brawl community. Learn to be a part of the solution, not the problem.

Question: Does Roy's side b have three or four slashes (not including the back slash, which I know is a fourth slash)? The third forward hit is clearly a launcher. The character page says he has fourth forward slashes.

Alright, cool. I was watching a vid, and the guy never tried the fourth forwards for some reason.

I'll be honest though, I love how it exploded. Much love to all communities for making it happen.:applejack:
I've seen what you've posted about Project M. You can just **** right off and get out of these boards.

Edit: aw man whatever I don't even care. Let's just all be fans of the Smash series and let go of all this bias and hatred.

Smashboards should never be taken seriously. That much is learned nearly right away. Just gotta have fun with it.

Depending on how things go, I'm actually attending a P:M tournament this weekend. Going in blind too.

: Cosigning with Xyro all day. Don't even try to defend the abomination you've created, Strong Bad. I wouldn't trust someone to make something creative out of Brawl if they can't even put in any genuine effort for a name.

In retrospect, Strong Bad is a fitting name for someone who just rips off another source for their own success.

My 64 main was Jigglypuff you ignorant tool.

@Strawhat: You have no idea what you're saying. Stop. You fools took Sonic and turned him into Captain Falcon. That's all you did. :applejack:
Your just a genuine ****, where did all this hate for pm come from anyway?

Ah forget it, there's no point in dragging an argument to these boards too
