Sorry, but as a policy I reply to all VMs except for clear spam (which is another story).
You need to know I'm not trying to be rude OR disrespectful, just stating my opinion on what I'm reading. I am extremely matter-of-fact in how I state my opinion. In the end, everyone (including you and me) has their own opinion, and I fully respect that. But if you want to talk about rude and disrespectful, I have to point out that I felt you were being that to me, as well, in some of your remarks. Without going back two pages, "all of your points are invalid" is in effect saying, "you're full of shyt, don't talk again".
To clear up: anyone at Smogon can do whatever they want. But trying to claim they are "fixing" the game is basically Smogon saying, "Nintendo, you release broken games, make patch immediately!" or something to that effect. And Nintendo doesn't care what one corner of the Internet thinks. Nor do they care what I or anyone at PC thinks. They'll do what they want to. I respect that Smogon is trying to come up with a competitive ruleset based on tiers for their Web site (not outright banning, just stating what tier something can play in), and that very concept is something I personally do not like, so clearly I don't go there.
BTW, it's true that my Mega Mawile got its butt handed to it; it was my first time trying it out, and it never had time to even react. Possibly a mere strategical error; possibly not. I was also against a very good battler, which has something to do with it, I think. So if my opinion on Mega Mawile's "ban" to the highest tier is flawed; sorry, I speak from my experience using it, and the strategy used against it by another OU-tier Pokémon or two effectively shut it down. My opinion comes from my experience, not from what everyone else says.
So please be respectful of that opinion. I'm not trying to be rude to you or anyone, and hate that I sometimes come across like that. I just strongly debate my point to the fact that someone is offended in the end by it. I don't mean that, but it happens. But trying to claim my points are invalid when they are in fact valid in their own way is just as "rude", if you will, as me saying that comments regarding "fixing" the game are a load of bull. And, in my mind, it is. You likely won't change my opinion.
