>>12553700I think that most people doesn't mind about Smogon. They hate smogonfags. There's a big difference.
Smogon is just a website where they gather people to battle and discuss strategies. They make their own rules according with their needs to balance their battles. I like the analysis, they provide good source of inspiration for movesets, even tough I do not battle with their rules on their forums or servers.
Smogonfags, in other hand, are that people who acts like Smogon was some kind of religion. They are always bitching about numbers and can´t understand people just having fun with other aspects of the game. They are the faggots who, when someone says in a thread that his favorite pokémon is something competitive useless, they start insulting the guy and throwing numbers at his face. Hurr durr, you like an Ice-type, everybody knows that ice-types are fucked by pebbles, you're an idiot for liking this!
For me is: Smogon, Ok. Smogonfags, not. I think that's the same for most people, but then Smogon ends being punished for it's bad fanbase.
