I think a good way of dealing is noting that it is, in fact, not 2008 any more, and the difference between your success back then and your success (or lack thereof) now may have more to do with everyone else getting better rather than just you suddenly becoming terrible.

I was refering to more of me as a Person. Not my tourny perfomance. Ether way, what you imply here is not so true. What I mostly lose too is what I use to deal with and beat back in 2009. people are not as smart as so many want to give them credit and hype for.

At the same time, I'm not sure you're giving people enough credit. Maybe what you used to deal with and beat in 2009 was done in a much less effective fashion (like, repeatedly, for instance). The cues for those could've changed - maybe now it's only done once in a while as a mixup, and all of a sudden you're not watching for it and it hits you and you go "damn, I used to punish that all the time two years ago"? I mean, it's a valid excuse if you quit for half a year, just got back in, and you're slow to react to everything, but it's been, what, over two months since you've been playing actively again? I watched vids of my play from 2008. I used to **** people with Marth doing nothing but SHDF and Dolphin Slash. I'm pretty sure I have better spacing now than I do then. I don't see nearly the same level of success going with the strategy I used back then. **** happens, but looking at everything from a perspective of only how you've changed is not giving you the whole picture.

Holy crud, I knew Peach was nerfed, but was it really that bad? I was an extremely casual melee player, so all I know is that her d-smash and f-throw were nerfed.
I'm glad you took a stand!
LOL, wow 2link is right. You seem much more dark and brooding now. Your name fits you better. <3
I know you'll get out of your slump soon! Don't give up!

I give credit to where i know it is due. Does not mean though that I don't pay attention to the basic gameplay of characters and what is the same/different. Half of what I lose to now is the same way people play me that I gone finished. but ether way I let it happen so I'm more of a fool for losing.

Wow, Mew2King flamed someone hard in that thread. I don't even know him at all, but I find it surprising that he got riled up like that.

"Master Peach, I'm not one to really flame people ever, but you're a ****ing *******, stfu you don't know **** and Cort knows more than you do about smash in general, if you don't like his opinion then either argue PROPERLY with it or ignore it altogether

it's one thing if I know people are wrong, but when they are wrong AND arrogant about it, and talking down to people who explain things that they know is true logically, then that's another."

Ouch.

What I don't get is why you would let yourself loose that kind of mindset. I never took games consistently off of Trevonte until about a month ago, but I never let it discourage me.

I don't think my personality has changed much from when I started. I've just gained a larger amount of security within friends and as a player.

Nope. You didn't lol.

Before I just cared way too much on everyone elses opinion of me and I let it get to me. Now I don't give 2 ****s.

Life is good.

For the most part I've ended up blocking all emotions over time.
I may or may not be pretending whenever I show any in my posts.

Wow, I just realized how long a lot of you guys have been here for, lol. I doubt I've changed at all. I've only been here for a few months, and I don't really post enough, so it's kinda difficult to gauge. Maybe I'll name search myself in a couple of years when I've become a megalomaniac psycho ***** and laff'd at how different I used to be in the past.
lol, dat stealth mode

Unless they're sour skittles, that is. I like sour stuff. Plain skittles are too sweet for my tastes.

I can always count on meno to back me up on my irrational amounts of hatred for basically everything. :bee:
