Don't bother. They will discard your vote if you say "No ban".

It doesn't matter what you vote, the poll is just a way to tell you "we want and will ban something".

And if for some reason you actually manage to get the majority you'll just see you votes and comments deleted and muted.

>caring about competitive Pokemon
Why?
No, really, why?
Pokemon is easily one of the least competitive games I've ever played. If you enjoy battling with friends or strangers online that's cool, but going for reqs and all that is just a waste of time.

It will finally become competitive when Joim finishes his Skillmons mod (RNG removal). Unless he keeps his retarded arbitrary changes, then nobody would want to play it.

Smogon is the competitive standard for singles in the Pokemon community. I often hear terms like "OU" outside of Showdown.

Which is why I said nobody would want to play it until he dumps his stupid arbitrary changes and just makes everything same as regular cart play except deterministic.

It's more a regional thing. Japanese and a fair amount of Europeans could care less about it.

It's fairly niche outside the sims, but it does exist.

Ideally, I'd have it set up to players with reqs having priority, with those lacking reqs still being able to participate if they can prove themselves logically.

Yes, PO also has in place an appeal where you can say your argument but also say why you couldn't get reqs. Usually respected members would get this as they are logical and have good arguments just didn't have time in the 2 week suspect ladder.

All I'm seeing is a fundamentally broken and exploitable system that has 100% factually been abused in the past to push the mods' own bias, eg the shadow tag test.

Oh you mean eg the one test in the tier that wasn't even a tier at the time? And also the one example where it was all fixed anyways so there's nothing to complain about. Give me an example where removing reasonable votes to sway a vote has ever happened in smogon.

The reqs are also piss easy to get. COIL is increased by how many battles you play. Just play a lot and you get to vote. Then actually make a good argument to support your vote.

That was not the admins, that was people dogpiling. That is why you cannot change your votes anymore.

Also DAILY REMINDER THAT the "wall of text and if you disagree we'll throw it out" bullshit was in Ubers, and only once. In OU and any tier below, you just vote. Stop trying to find excuses to be a sub-1200 shitter and not getting the most piss easy reqs of all time.

Dude, not the same guy, but it was in Gen VI that the bans really picked up steam.
Late XY was doing OK because we didn't have tutor moves for greninja, the new megas and stuff. When those things rolled in, they should have started fresh with the bans. I feel like we could have a balanced meta if everything was in there at once.
