into FE anymore, so I never go there) And maybe it looks like I stick with only my usual friends because I stay in FE4 THREAD often? But when I make friends I'm like attached to them and I don't just leave them for others XD But I'm always open to new faces and any fun conversations.

I can see where you're coming from, especially since people on SF have really heated debates and firm opinions. I hope your bad SF experiences haven't stopped you from stating your opinions everywhere else though, especially when it comes to the feelings of others (where having naivity in your views can help quite a lot in quite a few cases). I guess I just thought that from you sticking to the FE4 thread most of the time. It's good to hear that you're open to making new frien...

friends. Old friends don't exactly stick around forever. I still post in FE threads every now and then, but not so much anymore. I don't like how heated FE discussions can get.

Quite a lot of Gen 1 Pokemon favourites you got there. My favourites are rather distributed throughout the Generations. Flygon, Lucario, Togekiss (my most favourite), Krookodile, Haxorus, and Helioptile are some of my other favourites.

Yeah, pretty much~ Probably because I've been attached to them for such a long time. Weeeeeeeeeell other favourites I have are Serperior and Dragalge and Ampharos (I'm surprised I didn't list Ampharos in the first place really~).

I suppose that makes sense. I feel the same way regarding my Smash Bros. mains. I'm not as attached to R.O.B. as much as Marth, Ice Climbers, Mario, and Luigi, though it's not like I felt most of the Brawl newcomers were bad choices (I mean, some were blatant shoo-ins like Wario and King Dedede).

If Nintendo has opened up and said "any video game character can be in Smash Bros. (with the ballot)" then that means we have seen their expectations, any self-assumed notions of worthiness are meaningless to this statement.

Let's just stop this conversation. It's just frustrating me.

At the end of the day, I still think the flood of 3rd party requests is ridiculous and unreasonable, Sakurai is definitely not going to be as 3rd party happy as all the fans are in regards to DLC characters, and that's all I have to say on the matter.

Hardin's still missing?! I can't believe I didn't notice that, especially with me liking him a lot during my very first playthrough of FE3 Book 1 (which was also my very first time playing an FE game) since I found him cool looking. Xane, I feel like with him technically being a manakete, they could implement him (but it would have to be as a dragon). They did something similar with Ninian being a manakete, right?

Perhaps I'll use that banner, but at the same time, I feel like if I were to use it, it would make my posts in page 55-56 of the Choose Your Legends thread to look more biased. You don't think my posts on those pages are too biased/unreasonable/heated, do you?

Thing is about Ninian, she actually does transform in-game. Whether you can actually DO that in game is another story, but the fact remains that she has a manakete dragon form. Xane on the other hand, discarded his dragonstone and because of that, can no longer do so, yet somehow is able to dopplegang. If he had a form to go off of, perhaps, but he doesn't

If anything, I think you worry too much. So long as you present your statements without a level of putting the other side down, you're fine. Thought that can be hard to do sometimes when making comparisons between characters. At the moment you seem to be okay though; particularly with your last sentence on there being 3 winners on each side, instead of 2.

Hmm... good point about Xane. Well, the only other thing I can think of is give him some sort of story related reason for him to have a dragonstone (like being transported to the Heroes realm with a dragon stone mysteriously on him). Barring that, they could make him an infantry sword user with high resistance or magic resisting skills, since in FE1 and FE3 Xane was able to use swords without transforming and FE3, 11, and 12 made him have high resistance while untransformed.

I'm glad you think those posts are okay. I've been really paranoid about my posts ever since Integrity gave me a warn for literally saying "If you don't like Shadow Dragon, fine. But you don't need to go posting in its VC release thread only to rain on its parade" to NinjaMonkey. And thanks for arguing against Zeratul for me, in regards to siding with me on Smash's influence on the poll. I don't think I'm going to respond to his posts any further, since he made it clear in his last post that he's not being level-headed or respectful about the discussion at all.

Huh? I could've sworn you said you had a Wii U a year or so ago, and you played Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate with Integrity online or something...

I never said I'd be getting a Wii U, I said I'd be getting it /on/ Wii U!

Ah, that makes sense. I don't know how I interpreted that as "I don't have a Wii U."

Terribly worried. My Language Arts teacher told us we're gonna start converting our essays into speeches to present. Dang, I hate public speaking!

Well, try practicing your speeches out loud by yourself first. Also, when you actually do your speech, try focusing on a spot in the background between two audience members' heads. That way, it'll look like you're still looking at the audience, but you won't get as nervous from everyone in the room. If your teacher wants you to shift your stare at different audience areas in order to distribute the attention you're giving to the audience, then just gaze at a space between...

between two different audience member's heads. Also, even if you're reading off a piece of paper for your speech, be sure to stare at the audience every now and then (or fake stare at them), since teachers will dock you marks for staring at your paper the whole time during a speech. I hope that helps.

Yeah, I know that feeling. Well, mostly from gaming lately rather than from careers, but I did hit a similar wall 3 years ago. Hopefully your college has an employment help centre/site you can use for after you graduate. I know it helped me tons to find the full-time job I'm in now (though it took 1 1/2 years between graduating to getting a job in my degree).

Thanks for the vote of confidence, I'll keep it in mind.

No problem. You're a good guy, and I'm more than happy to help you out where I can.

Well... again I'm not talking about who is more preferable or who is better off~ I'm just saying that you can't expect any informative opinions out of me because I just don't think about that stuff so it's literally unproductive to bother asking ^o^

(now since I know this message will cut off ima make this two replies)

I'm not as familiar with Elibe, but from there definitely Saaaiiin

Magvel is probably Ephraim, Artur, L'arachel, I hardly know Orson though I kinda like Orson =o Just cause he /looks/ cool~!

Tellius is Soren, Reyson, Micaiah, Leonardo, BASTIAN, VOLKE, Nasir

Sain? I never would've guessed. I thought girls didn't like him or something. Then again, I wouldn't know what girls like in a guy. I like Orson as well due to his tragic story (even if it is creepy). I feel really bad for the guy and how he's come to accept a magically animated corpse as his wife.

I suppose so. I mean, neither the Tellius or DS era had particularly rabid fans even when they were the most recent games during their time (Jugdral did, despite never being the most recent one online, in a sense, though Jugdral is another story for another time). Keep in mind, I don't think I have too big a problem with the whole "waifu emblem" element, since even in series like Harvest Moon that have similar elements, I didn't find it weird or gross (so long as people keep it to a "safe for work" level). And although gameplay-wise, I would get married in games like those, I personally wouldn't obsess over those female characters too much, even if I did really like them looks and personality-wise.

Well, since I doubt mods are reading this, and since I've seen people get away warnless with talking about certain SF members making unreasonable posts, it's doofina/Ema Skye.

I hope you don't mind how worked up I always get over unreasonable fans. I do know it's something i need to tone down.

The obsession, by itself, isn't the problem I believe. Rather, its when said people get very defensive over said characters. For example, anytime someone wants to either criticize, or voice a dislike/disapproval toward, say, Lucina, there's most likely always going to be someone coming in as a white knight to defend her name, even if well warranted. It happened in Smash, and now its happened again in regards to FE Warriors. I didnt think she'd be in the game for literally having the same weapon (which is what creates everyone's movesets in Warriors games), and fighting style as Chrom. She was put in anyway, despite this, even if the devs were originally against it.

Oh them? I must have missed these cause otherwise, I had no actual opinion on them and they were just kinda... around. At least, when the Smash boards were still active.

Well, you seem much more tame about it in comparison to others I've seen, so I'd say you're fine haha. The very fact that you're aware of it makes it all the better tbh.

I was quite against Lucina in Fire Emblem Warriors as well, and now that you reminded me of "the weapon is what creates the moveset" rule in the Warriors series, now I'm even against it more. And I get you. I mean, there's definitely some criticism people give certain character's that unfair/incorrect, but there's some views you can't argue against, especially when it's mainly opinion/experience based (like someone thinking FE4 females looks to masculine or when someone constantly gets bad level ups from Hector).

doofina/Ema Skye are the same person. Ema Skye is just his newest name change while doofina is the username he's used the longest. 

Thanks.

So what characters are you personally wanting in SSB4, and which of the confirmed newcomers are you liking the most? I'm hoping for Takamaru and Dillon in SSB4 and Rosalina is the newcomer I'm liking the most so far. I really thought her being in would be a long shot, but I'm really glad that wasn't the case.

Well, I never really think about it. There's nobody I am wanting to be in it. I coulda swore I answered by now what newcomer I was most looking forward to, but when I checked back through the comments I hadn't! Guess I forgot~ But the confirmed character I like most so far is Greninja.

Weird... most people I know have at least one or two characters they hope make it in a new Smash Bros. game. And I guess I should've figured you'd look forward to the Pokemon newcomer, heh.

Gah... I saw the message too late. I got your friend code down at least.

That's fine.

I have to say, trying to mentally prepare myself to fight you is kind of suspenseful (in a fun way), despite me knowing your mains and you knowing very few of mine (I purposely avoid revealing who my mains are in posts to get the edge on others when I face them). Then again, I did really overestimate Anacybele before facing her, when it turned out I was able to beat her in 3 of our 4 1-on-1's.

hearing what you find odd about using him, since as a R.O.B. main, I can't think of anything except for maybe his big frame making him an easy target for juggles and combos.

He just feels.. Unnatural to me, its hard to explain to someone who uses him lol

Well, I completely understand characters feeling unnatural to play. I mean, it's definitely not something you can easily put in words. I know that King Dedede feels really unnatural and weird for me, despite being quite good with other heavyweights like Bowser, Donkey Kong, and Ganondorf. And Lucario and Rosalina felt completely weird for me, which was disappointing since they were my most wanted newcomers for Brawl and SSB4 that actually got in.

The original. Thats it

There's no place to start like the beginning. So what did you think of it? I liked the simplistic yet fun level designs, the graphics that were ahead of their time, plus the awesome soundtrack (especially Aquatic Ambience and Gangplank Galleon).

Yeah, my best friend (she is a big DKC fan especially of 2) had me get into it

Cherche is quite pretty, and also quite underrated among the females of FE13. I actually haven't played FE13 due to not having a 3DS. After having my DS Lite get utterly worn down (non-functional L and R buttons and D-Pad, disgustingly soft A button, broken hinge, red tinted screen), I've been quite paranoid about getting another portable game console.

Ah, so you know the game from looking into it and whatnot then~

I really like her since just like me she really adores animals and even considers animals many consider ugly or scary to be cute x3 And I just like her personality as well

Heehee, yeah that's pretty worn down

Yep. I read up on it like crazy before the release, and even a few months after it. I do a crazy amount of research on games I'm interested in before they come out. Also, I didn't know you were an animal lover, though I guess I should've known based on your personality.

So out of curiousity, you're against Mewtwo being in SSB4? Or you don't want him in just to keep Pokemon to 4 slots? Mario and Zelda would technically be at 5 slots right now (assuming Ganondorf is back which is likely and Sheik is her own separate slot now), and I'd think Pokemon deserves as many slots as (if not more) than Zelda, especially since Pokemon is a lot more prevalent and has sold a lot more game units than Zelda.

Nothing against Mewtwo I'm just tired of Gamefreak having complete control over Sakurai.

Ah, I guess that's understandable. Though besides Greninja, I can't really think of any instances where it's heavily implied that Game Freak overrode Sakurai's decisions. Pokemon Trainer was Sakurai's idea and not Game Freak's and Lucario was heavily requested in Brawl by both fans and Game Freak (well, for the latter I'd assume that's the case). Also, ignore the 4 slots in my previous comment and switch it to 5, since I somehow forgot Charizard.

Mini-modding... I suppose that is something that there should be rules against, but I think a simple "calm down" post is acceptable enough. I'll admit though, a mod's job must be hard.

Well, there IS something against mini-modding in this site's code of conduct. And I would be surprised if an admin's or mod's job was easy.

I actually completely forgot about that specific rule. I mainly remembered the anti-flaming rules, the specifics of necro-posting, 3 off-topic posts being allowed max before mods take action, no double posting unless it's a timely update or project thread, and sig size limits.

Pretty much unless Blaziken is revealed

I have a strong feeling they're not going to add two fully evolved fire starters as playable characters. I mean, that'd be a really biased thing to do in terms of type representation in the Pokemon roster, especially considering this is the starters we're talking about. I mean, not having a grass starter playable in any form in SSB4 is one thing, but having two playable fire type starters seems a lot more biased.

It didn't stop them from having 7 Mario characters did it? :P

An open mind is a great thing to have. such a specific number, must be a really big fan then

Rarity is under appreciated imo so she's my fave, with Fluttershy or Twilight for 2nd

Yeah, I guess I am quite a huge MLP fan. Rarity's quite awesome, though I don't really like her tendency to get others to carry her huge loads of luggage and suitcases. Besides that, she's not as selfish as people make her out to be. So what order do you like the remaining six in? Rainbow Dash is my least favourite of the mane six, followed by Pinkie Pie, though I don't particularly dislike either. I just like the other 4 better.

She really isn't all that bad in my book, it's just, something i like. i don't remember what though @~@

It's not really like favorite to disliked. I like them all equally but it's just fav to not so fav

1. Rarity 2. Twilight 3. Fluttershy 4. Apple Jack 5. Rainbow Dash 6. Pinkie Pie

pretty nice. Sure some like to voice their opinion too much and deny any criticism, but those are few in between. The worst I could say would be the FE13 sub board.

FE13 fanbases again, huh? I thought the FE fanbase couldn't get any worse than the FE4 fanbase. Still, I find the FE4 fanbases' overall voice to be much more annoying even now, since very few people fought against the FE4 fanbase and biasedness. There's plenty of FE13 haters/overratedness proclaimers to balance it out. ...wait, I'm adding to fanbase toxicity now, huh?

Lol. Well, at least thing can't get any worse?

Unfortunately I couldn't join the sf tournament this weekend :(

Well, another time then. Even if all the regular SF tournament participants lose interest in it by the time you get Mario Kart 8, I'll still be willing to race you.

OK, sounds good. It may be quite some time before I can do online

Fair enough. So you get "Eight" as a name if you stick in nothing as your name. I should try doing that for the other Dragon Quest games and see what happens...

I guess I could try it with DS!VI, and PS1!VII too.

Okay found out the rest thanks to asking about DQ Sorter stuff

I- Alef

II- Allen

IX- Nine

X- X (just the letter. yeah, I find it odd too.)

I like Takumi, Leon, and Cyrus based on looks, though! Especially Cyrus, he has nice hair! I didn't think Fire Emblem would be up to it, but they finally managed to grasp that hairstyle! Some guys at my school have that hairstyle, so that's something relatable as well. And Vergil (from Devil May Cry) too, I guess that's one non-Nintendo male character I like.

Unsurprisingly though, I prefer male actors over female actresses. I think it has something to do with infatuation. I think Kaley Cuoco and Scarlett Johansson are pretty and all, but have you SEEN Chris Evans in the new Avengers movie? It's like they forced him to wear tight shirts! You could his true beauty!!!

Ah, there we go. That makes more sense (you preferring celebrity male crushes over fictional male crushes). I just found you're among the 10% of SF members that aren't vocal about their fictional/celebrity crushes. Then again, I really shouldn't be saying that since I'm very unvocal about mine as well.

Yup, I've gotta bounce back! And yeah, you have a point. There's not much we can do about it, though.

Also, I like your Pac-Man avi.

I'm glad you like the avatar. I told myself I'd use whatever got me psyched up the most from E3 2014, and that happened to be Pac-Man in SSB4. Yoshi's Woolly World being 2 player and Captain Toad getting his own game come quite close, though. What were your favourite things to come out of E3 this year?

Actually...I dunno. I don't keep track of the E3, lol. I'm so excited for the Pokemon Sapphire and Ruby remakes, though~! I adored the original Sapphire!

Wow, another piece of proof that really proves you are moving up in the world when I'm not looking. Though that's definitely a good thing. What are you working as?

Server & Dishwasher of a Retirement home.

Do you get to talk to the elders there often? I bet they've got tons of funny and interesting stories.

I'm looking at the tumblr page now, and I still don't see your problem. Yes, it shows the latest first, but the rest are still there.It dates back to April 2012

Sorry, I figured it out. I didn't notice the two arrows above navigation brings you to earlier pages. That was silly of me.

Haha
