I have to say, though, ToasterBrain's take on the avatar is the best thing I've seen today.
Derp Genie w/ shades and a mustache is better than the original.

Eh, I find it funny now that a bunch of people are doing it as a joke.
Fair enough.

I just don't like that sort of stuff and I think it's very disrespectful to do so without approval from the person being impersonated, but if you don't mind it, fine by me.

On that subject, why the heck is there no easy link to the global rules here?
There is.

On the bottom of every single page of this site. A link labelled "Terms and Rules".

But I guess you could bookmark this URL: http://smashboards.com/help/terms

Easy to get to yes, but I'll admit since there is no reason to scroll all the way down to the very bottom of every page I've never seen it till you said something just now. Might be worth thinking about, but no huge deal.

Why are there users with derp Genie as their avatar? Does this bet have anything to do with the Monday reveal?

I was the only one the bet applies to. (At least in the Derp Genie sense. I'm pretty sure there were other people betting and didn't hold up on their wagers.)

The others are just copying me today as a joke.

I'm sure your twin brother has done this hasn't he?
You might want to cut that crap already. You know nothing about me, my family or my personal life.

I'm pretty damn sure if someone started pretending to be you or someone you care about, you wouldn't like it.

Such is some ****ing hypocrisy some people nowadays have... >_>

And if I haven't made myself clear before, yes, I don't like people impersonating others. For me, it means an utter lack of respect for others.

Just my opinion in all of this.

A quick read over the global rules says that this bit of tomfoolery (especially since the original user doesn't mind) is 100% okay. I spose if it starts to bug @GoldenYuiitusin then maybe, but other then that I guess it's up to him.

So, while you guys have your little commotion.
I'll just be back here trying to make Miis out of characters. I'm currently on Mike Dawson and Brawl In the Family's Mario Mii and working my way up to Pokemon Trainer classes.

If people started using my avatars and made their profiles similar to mine, I find no reason to be offended unless they have malicious intent. I see no harm in stupid jokes.

I lack respect for Golden because I wish to emulate him in all his glory? Honestly, it is the other way around. Regardless, his set-up is really nice. :jigglypuffmelee:

On a different note, you've made clear you're feelings towards impersonation, however at most on the site we can have similar signatures, backgrounds and profile pics (as far as I know) so I myself don't see it so much as impersonation, and at the end of the day this is a forum not real life. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, it's not identity theft for godsakes. Now before this turns into something ugly I'd like to change the subject to Final Smashes.
I think ZSS gunship is way too strong based on the invitational tournament.

That depends on the point of view. If someone here copied my avatar, signature and/or personal details and admitted to be imitating me, I wouldn't like it regardless of whether it was a joke or not.

Of course, this is Golden's business, not mine, so it's up to him whether he minds people imitating him or not.

I just stated my opinion and I expect people to respect it as much as I respect other people's opinions (including yours). I don't like impersonation and I don't find it funny. If someone else doesn't mind being impersonated, who am I to judge?

Sorry if I came out as harsher than this probably would have warranted, but impersonation is one of those things that generally pisses me off.

This said, I'm off.

The sad part is even though our avatars are based off of Golden, the person everyone actually is is Sehnsucht.

I didn't know I'd strike a personal chord joking around like that. Different cultures have different values and stuff. I understand.

For me, my family impersonates different members and we find it hilarious. It's more of an American type of thing I guess. Comedians do it and even the people impersonated think its funny. I have family that makes fun of other parts of the family for things they don't even do. It's still funny. I'm not trying to justify it but giving a little perspective which you seemed to give as well. I'm sure others are giving you their fill too so sorry if this is too long.

Hey @ TewnLeenk TewnLeenk .

Your (broken) signature image is causing my antivirus to get alerts. It's been happening in the Social thread a lot, but I've only now been able to pinpoint the source. It's becoming a bit of a nuisance.

What's up with that?

Really? Sorry about that. You're like the third person to tell me this. Guess there's something wrong with the gif.

I'll go signature-less to help y'all out.

Thanks, Tewn.

Remind me to take you out on the town while dressed as women some time. ;)

Which one were you using?
The situation has been rectified.

But for the record, I have me some Avast.
