Regarding to Gimpyfish's impression thread

[flyinfilipino]

In Gimp's own word:


Please, Gimp, there is one thing that you need to learn, and that is "no one the wiser." You are making it sounds like a joke gone bad, but that is BS. The amount of time and effort you put in your post made my case. Or are you implying that your whole post is a joke that you planned with your friends as well?


No he may not get the privilege to boast and snob, the opposite holds true in fact. If Gimp ever felt to get something off his chest or act funky, do it with another handle, the ones that don't have the Mod tag under it. I am trying to take the mods seriously, and Gimp is not helping. I thought all Mods command with respects, that means don't abuse the users, don't misinform the forum, and definetly don't call users idiots. I absolutely can not ignore those coinings of techs, b/c this board is supposed to be THE authority for the Smash community.



Awesome. Too fancy of a post for the kids though.


Great, now I really have some respect for you left.



Not cool dude, but thanks for digging my first post up(all warm and fuzzy feeling).



You don't even understand the basic ideas of an online forum.


I am my own man, I express my idea in my own thread, and oh Gimp knew perfectly well how I felt about his post before hand.


See I didn't even bother to bring that one up. It wasn't even funny.

What's the point? Are you just antagonizing Gimpyfish just to get attention for yourself? You didn't go to E For All, Gimpyfish got a lot of this information for you, but if you don't like the way it's presented, then don't read it.

 

[turbo_ja]

This thread would have been closed from the getgo if this was no more than trolling and ranting. I mean, i can agree with certain comments made by the topic starter. But at the end of the day, the points made by gimpy are subjective but informative at the same time. If anything, i think gimpy is the one being very immature about the situation. And do we really need 500 people saying "HERE COMES THE FLAMESZZZZ or SOMEONE GET OUT OF THE WAY, THE ANTI-FLAME TRUK IS CUMING"? I'd like to think that'd we come to a message board to diversify our outlook on things, not just an agreement on INKDROPPING, or IKE is slow; case closed.

I think the point of this is that some people do not like other people or communities because of the "fanboyism" of said community. These sorts of people think that stars of any kind (atheltics, movies, etc) are arrogant and do not like them while they think of fanboys as well, fanboys who kiss up too much. I think that is what the deal with this is. He sees Gimpy as some sort of star in Smash and thinks he is arrogant because of this this and that so he atagnoizes them. That is what I think anyways because I have seen alot of other people like him that do not like patting of the back nature of some communities or groups.

Edit: Or it may be another "casual" vs "pro" thing. I notice that more of the people that just joined and go to the brawl forums agree with the TC. I don't know if he is casual or not but he just joined and I did not see him anywhere but the Brawl forums.

 

[Mckillyou]

That's true that mods need to not call useres "idiots"..

But it's so funny.

Especially when its true. >:3

Yeah, but he could've just put this in Gimpy's thread as some constructive criticism. From what I've seen, Gimpy isn't being too mature about this either, so...meh.

Edit: And about the naming of techniques thing...didn't the TC create a thread really recently about coining a term for Wario farting or something, named after himself?

 

[UrajKingofDarkness]

I suppose I'll post too...............

Um........I guess........If you don't like what someone says, nobody's forcing you to read it?

Yeah, I'll go with that.

 

[Brockman5]

I understand that Royal Rook doesn't need to read gimpys thread if he doesn't want to..but,
Gimpy as a mod doesn't need to be as imature about as he has...

Yes LOLOLOLOLOL Irony is awesome.

 

[Brockman5]

Yea that is pretty ironic and crazyyy...

 

[shadydentist]

RoyalRook, you honestly don't know when to let something go. Your original post was wildly uncalled for, your further posts only serve to highlight your bizarre vendetta. I don't know where you detected this tone of 'snobbery', but Gimpyfish took a lot of effort to bring impressions to those who weren't able to go. That is what he brought to the community. You, however, have brought nothing. Let it go, before our collective opinions of you drop even further.

 

[UrajKingofDarkness]

Taking the amount of info Gimpyfish put into his thread and how long he's been working on it (especially the time he invested of his own free will), can you seriously tell yourself that you wouldn't respond similarly if someone said you were full of bull after putting in that much effort?

I'm not saying the TC has no right to say anything, but for all his proper spelling and punctuation, a little more finesse and construction in his criticism and less blatant insulting could've been exercised.

 

[.Yoshi]

Fish did seem arrogant, especially in one thread about trying to get the name "ink drop" changed to something else. He said something along the lines of STFU because that's the name SWF will use and he "flexed his mod powers"....<_< kinda assanine

He plays Bowser though. Give him some slack....

 

[mikeHAZE]

i can't believe people seriously think somebody would say "flexes mod powers" and be serious.

If this is stuff that people have been talking about of arrogance, then you all need to get your sarcasm detectors checked.

[BentoBox]

Attention whoring like a pro. Now supamn that ho!

 

[SiD]

This thread angers me.

Someone should make a different, simlar forum, and we could send all the scrubs like this guy to that forum instead. You know, like Canada.

 

[BentoBox]

Canada > You, eh!

 

[Kokichi]

I'm certainly in support of RoyalRook being able to voice his own opinions. I'm glad that he made a post about it that wasn't riddled with swear words or slang.

That being said, the entire post was still pretty dickish and reeks of jealousy hidden underneath a level-headed veneer. It sounds like he was jealous that Gimpy got to play Brawl instead of him, and that the naming of moves after other players who also got to go was simply unacceptable. All that could have been said in a simple post in Gimpy's thread instead of creating his own thread, but what's done is done.

 

[frotaz37]

Seems like RoyalRook got hit by one too many Bowser F-Smashes....

 

[marthmaster04]

No johns rook.

 

[Mama]

Well I wouldn't call it trolling or anything. He didn't seem to want people's spite/negative reactions. However I do think the post is quite ignorant. (not an insult look the word up).

I don't feel like typing too much so I'll finish with this :
Gimpyfish posted his impressions knowing that the majority (if not all) people understood that he was referring to a demo. That nothing is permanent and to take critiquing with a grain of salt. Other than that everything else I would have said has been said..

 

[Cojiro]

Hey, check this out:

Gimpyfish's Brawl Impressions Thread

Brawl Impressions Thread

Brawl Impressions

Impressions

His opinions. Get a grip.

 

[susu_atari]

Just wondering, Rook... were you ever expecting people to actually agree with you?
I mean, really? Gimpy's done us a great service. You've made an a*s of yourself.

Just go away.

 

[Tavo_7]

royal Crook is probly the best smasher of all time.

fixed

Gimpy, I appreciate your time and effort ^^ keep up the good work.

I see a lot of you share the same sentiment, but I can't disagree more. Hitler was the one who was responsible for the WWII, do you respect him just b/c how much effort he putted in it? No, you won't. B/c it doesn't matter if someone put a lot effect in something or not, it's the things he has accomplished that counts. So if Gimp thought he could outline a game like Brawl, just by went to a event, then he is way over his head.
I read his post from the get go, and I can tell you right now, that Gimp wasn't just joking around when he tried to coin all those terms in Brawl.

And now you're comparing him to Hitler? He was trying to summarize what he got from the demo in a very thorough albeit somewhat biased fashion. Would you rather not get anything? There's really no big deal about this, except for the fact that you may just be jealous because he got to play first and you didn't.

 

[BananaNut]

While it is right to voice your opinion, it isn't right to cut down anyone elses while doing so.

In my opinion, Gimp was just trying to give the people that hadn't gone to the demo further insite into the game. Of course Gimp's post will have an opininated stance, it's hard NOT to write a post with an opinionated stance.

My advice: Don't take it personally, just agree to dissagree.

 

[Hitaku]

Lol I can't believe what I am reading right now. Gimpy does this awesome thing for us and you compare him to Hitler and it to WWII. To be honest, I didn't read much of this thread, but after reading what little I have, and this, I am sure I don't need to. Thanks for the awesome thread Gimpy, don't listen to ppl like this.

See that is where we see this incident differently. If Gimp couldn't handle a PINNED topic without a strong opinionated stance, then he had no business to be a Mod.
I shall take his post very seriously. I got all the rights and reasons to do so, just b/c how much I care for the release of Brawl. If he was just another blogger, I would have just agree or disagree, but he is still a mod, isn't him?

Yeah, but no mod is perfect. And besides, wouldn't you be excited if you got to play Brawl before everyone else, AND your favorite character got all pimped out? Just look for the useful information in the thread and be happy you got anything at all, and don't take anything personally.

 

[jellis186]

Can we just close this thread. It has become nothing but Rook inciting people into a frenzy. I think the point has gotten across, yes Gimpy's posts are a little biased, but overall, hes doing a great thing for this community.

People are geting too caught up in the specifics of whats goin on.

Time to end the thread, it's just getting way too ********.

 

[Doctor X]

Rook... honestly...

This guy has contributed more to this community than you can imagine, both to the Bowser metagame and in terms of videos, on top of all the information he's bringing from E for All which, whether or not it all turns out to be 100% correct, it's still more useful than anything the major game sites and magazines-- you know, the ones that don't even know what a shorthop is-- will give you.

You have no business giving him this much **** until you can base it on more than just petty hang-ups. Sure, the naming thing was stupid, and maybe he's a little abrasive on a few subjects, but really... most people here are. If you're too insecure to handle that then you're just going to have to get over it before people tire of your whining enough to disregard you entirely.

“Advanced” Tactics

Alright, so here is where we get into the “advanced” tactics. Some things we discovered at the venue or we just figured out how to actually get them to work. Other things we found but we’ve been having trouble duplicating. Anyways, read on to see what kind of “advanced” techniques we found for Brawl so far. (also, since it’s a demo, every single one of these could easily be removed/changed, so keep that in mind)


I'm not sure if you know what impressions are, or if you read his entire post but it seems you are thoroughly confused. He stated in his impressions the first day things could change these are only impressions based on the demo. Even in the advanced tactics summary he reiterated hat same point.

 

[cynar]

I've been registered for a bit here and never really post. I just wanted to say I agree whole heartedly with the original poster. The names for the new techs are ridiculous and stupid. Some of them aren't even real techs like the "inkdrop" or what I prefer as the dash pivot. Several of the players at the local tourneys where I'm from share the same sentiment.

Very good post.

 

[RokkuManZer0]

I shall take his post very seriously. I got all the rights and reasons to do so, just b/c how much I care for the release of Brawl. If he was just another blogger, I would have just agree or disagree, but he is still a mod, isn't him?

So if he told you to go jump off a cliff, you'd do it because he's a mod. Amirite? Good luck with that.

 

[petre]

i think there something that you really need to realize here. the ONLY reason gimpy went through all the trouble to take notes and write up a huge report on the current brawl demo was because of...
the community!!!

did you happen to see the brawl boards at all before and durning E4All? half of the topics were just a list of questions people wanted answered or videos posted and being analyzed by every person online at the time.

if gimpy had just gone by himself, or just with a few other smashers, but had never been to smashboards before, he definitely wouldn't have gone through all the trouble of playing brawl as much as possible and playing every character, while analyzing everything he saw. he only did it because the smash community wanted to know as much as they could about the game. he took the time he could have spent either checking out other games there, or just playing with bowser and having fun, to answer the community's questions and to find new things people were completely unaware of.

can you imagine what the brawl boards would look like if the smashers that went DIDNT write a report, or take any notes, or post any opinions at all on the game??? people would be sending hate mail to gimpy's house!!!

also, id like to note HOW MANY TIMES GIMPY STATED THAT PEOPLE ARE OVERREACTING BECAUSE ITS ONLY A DEMO, AND THAT THOSE WERE HIS OPINIONS. pretty much every post he made during the time of E4All told people to calm down, because its only a demo now, and things were going to be different by the time everyone actually gets to play brawl (and once because he was getting a rediculous number of pms and such from other people). maybe you missed all of those posts, but dont take all of this so seriously.

the last thing id like to say is whats with all the hate against the namings? isnt that usually how EVERYTHING in life goes? the person who first discovers something gets to name it? and even if it is a rediculous name that you absolutely hate, you dont have to call it that. things just have names for a reference. so that you know what someone means when theyre trying to describe something to you. im pretty sure if i say 'boswer just ink dropped' every person in the brawl boards would know what happened. as long as thats true, i think the names are fine. youre getting overly worked up over very trivial things.

if youre so against someone trying to satisfy the community's wanting for more information, then you dont have to read any of gimpy's impressions on brawl, or use any of the names they randomly came up with. nobodys forcing you to. but dont hate someone for helping out, because you dont like how they helped. thats just rediculous.

See that is where we see this incident differently. If Gimp couldn't handle a PINNED topic without a strong opinionated stance, then he had no business to be a Mod.

Despite everything gimpyfish has done for the community, moderating the boozer, ganon, brawl forums extremely well, working severly hard to let hundreds of anxious brawl fans have vast amounts of information (which does not seem biased to me or many others), you think he has no business as a Mod? Thats ridiculous. Sometimes you people need to take a step back and recognize who is doing all the work.

i think there something that you really need to realize here...

This is the post right above me, by petre. Quoted for truth, RoyalRook needs to read this a few times. Also, why do you continue to complain about everything gimpy has done, and about 'naming techniques', when you've been accused of starting a topic naming a wario fart? Address that comment or stop posting.

tl;dr, RoyalRook, you have no business saying gimpy has no business as a mod. also youre a hypocrite.
