Farewell Competitive Battling

Status
Not open for further replies.
I have been a member of the competitive battling community for some time now. I've been playing since late Gen 3, and have followed the metagame for a while, but I think it's time to say goodbye.

It all comes down to the community. To put it frankly, the community is incredibly shitty. Every other game I play in (usually in the high 1600/low 1700s) I get an opponent that jeers, insults, and is no less than a gigantic prick. The 1/10 matches that I play in where I get a decent human being aren't enough to make me want to keep playing.

So, I bid you all on the forums a fond farewell, and those in-game a less than fond farewell.

Is this about my auto-win message on Netbattle? I'm sorry it was kind of jerky. :(

You say you've been a part for 'some time now' but your join date says Tuesday.

If you feel there is unwarranted hate and insults in a battle you should be speaking to PS mods

you should try dota and lol.

but seriously, to each their own. i agree with some of the sentiments you have, but i don't let it get me down. i just don't actually play the game.
 
Shit talkers are motivation to kick some serious butt... unless you're constantly in the losing position (lol). It's all fun and games though, trivial stuff, get in character and play along if you desire. Imagine, you're the superhero beating down a villain; the internet grants you that luxury to take advantage of at least.
