>>20781479It's hard not to ged mad at those assholes, when stupid people follow their rules blindly, even when not knowing how stupid or conveniently arranged by a few people they are.
Like that thread from days ago, that stated people disconnected on you if you "dared" to have Mawile in your team.
That's outrageous, and most of them quit because Smogon told them Mawile was banned and that was that.
I bet a smart Smogon player would still accept such battle with no hassle, but the blind followers quit on you, and the "top tier Smogonites" also would quit on you because they already agreed it was not worthy of their meta.
Tl;Dr, yeah, even if you decide to ignore them, there's consequences to their circlejerk that actually affect you in some way.
