>>22368559Are you shitting me? Last I heard was M-Ray was supposed to be a nightmare in Ubers, and now there's a new tier? Fuck man.
Welp, it was bound to happen. What's currently banned from Ubers,then? I know M-Ray is practically guaranteed.
>>22368548Pretty much. This is what happens with a good 80% of fan-run anythings. Just look at GamerGate. They wanted to reveal corrupt video game journalism, and ended up becoming another anti-SJW group.
>>22368591I'm pretty sure the owner just wants to wipe his hands of Smogon. I mean, the mods have been there so long that replacing them would pretty much kill the system.
If he brings in any new blood, they'll immediately be hazed, shunned, and twisted, forced to either leave, or go along with the corrupt.
Smogon is too far gone to stop with the fucked up shit. And its far too big to start our own simulator, without getting compared to smogon all the time.
It's sad to say, but Smogon was right in at least 80% of the bans/clauses. But they started to get away with so much stuff, that having to retest EVERYTHING to make sure it's fair would be too much.
