Speaking of which.
If possible. Tell me how Shantae is. I've been considering it. But haven't gotten around to it.
I'll give you that.
That's the thing. A good idea is to branch out.
Mains change all the time. And it's best to at least keep up with a few you're considering.
Might as well bunch these two together.
Look, bud. I'm gonna be blunt with you. No beating around the bush. Just the truth.
...Calm down.
From this, I don't see a legit reason to hate. All I see is emotion.
All I see is "I quit". I can't do this anymore. That's the attitude of a defeatist.
It's like if the Backroomers just packed their bags and gave up matchups cause "People hate them."
You'll find people across the spectrum. Heck, I've had my share of arguments of elitists all across the board.
Then maybe tutoring isn't the best.
But all I can say is it requires patience. People have different needs.
You can't just give up on them, what you need is to work.
Be serious, give criticism. Help them get better instead of getting frustrated.
And isn't that that best attitude? Come in positive, instead of expecting the worst.
People don't put effort into data to impress. They do it cause they love Smash. And will do anything to make it better.
...And this is where my point stands.
Look, I'll be honest here.
Admittedly, if anything, this "personality" of mine is a facade.
In reality, I'm a pessimist. I look at the world with a half-glass empty. I'm emotional, I let things get to me personally.
When I'm stressed, I shut myself off. I act like I'm undeserving. Heck, it's the reason I quit 3DSA.
And trust me, I've blown up on this site as well. Don't believe me? Xiroey could tell you...
I get where you're coming from. While I may have never been betrayed. Trust me when I say "I'm used to it".
But one thing I've learned is not to let emotions get the best of you.
All it ends up doing is hurting you, and everyone around you.
You won't "get the last laugh". Or whatever you're saying.
Now, while I've never had betrayals. As most of mine are medical.
But I've had my fair share of moments (try having an Asthma scare).
And I've learned is to not let them define you.
Move on, don't dwell in the past. And don't end up like me.
I haven't learned that yet, but you still can.
And I still stand by that one.
Before I choose, with the exception of character favorites, I need to know the moves of a character, their style, their abilities, and all. Pit's versatility and coolness prior to Brawl's release attracted me to him, as with my liking for Bowser. I rather wait til the roster is shown... or if Palutena's shown, then I'll have all the mains I need.
Relaxing is not easy considering I've been provoked almost if not daily (points to AIB trolls). And back to elitists, and well, straight-up idiots who continue to egg me on while trying to act innocent, etc.
You can't tell me that I'd give up easily. I was that 1 Pit who did a lot of that matchup stuff after I felt the first revision needed some polishing. But with the game dying and Pit players decreasing in numbers, not to mention I've had grudges with some of em, I felt like I was done helping those guys. I don't need to discuss the elitist thing.
Glad I don't tutor anymore. There's times when I can be patient, but then there's those who just don't improve for long periods of time. Sure, I can appreciate a determined person who does listen to me, who tries, but my original goal was to either get my matchup data, Pit frame data, and all that put up, so that considering how I will never go offline for multiple reasons, I'd hope that I could inspire a Pit player or 2 who could surpass me and show the others what he's made of. Unfortunately for me, I have this peeve that makes me want to be the superior Pit, with the exception of them Japanese Pits.
Problem is that I felt I wasn't too patient with em after a couple of weeks. Even checking with em in battles, I saw little to no changes. I cant discuss this anymore.
That's them, not me anymore. While I do like Smash and have grown up with it, I just can't put up with the community these days, because of... you know this part, so I'm skipping the text.
I'll take your word for it. I just hope you'll take my word that being betrayed hurts hard, and may make you have trust issues. Otherwise, I'm stuck with the few friends I got who understand me well, or who may have it worse than I do.
I understand, but I tried many things. Ignoring doesn't do me much good, except on occasions, but even then, there's that case of some ppl posting either personal things, or some fake stuff bout me that got me curious, which becomes a major problem if said person is not punished for their actions. Then I have to printscreen whatever I can in hopes that I find em mess up, hope they get banned.
I've been at this for most of my life, so it's very hard to adjust to something I'm used to seeing. My memories, for what I have left, will remind me of the cruelty of some humans who like to torment one for the fun of it.
However, it's best if I don't talk about it anymore for the time being. This is still a Smash4 thread, and I don't wanna dwell too much.
