I entered Blue Arena with a name brazilian people usually have. I had an 00ber team. DT asked me if I wanted to battle him. I won it and said he should use alias lookup. Then I asked him if he would have accepted the challenge if it was rated and he said he would. Heh, I think I'd rather have you, Starcia, directing Smogon rather than Eevee Trainer. |

From what I hear, his bannings are for no justified reason, so they would be correct on those terms. Anyway, to address what you just said Fulgore, sounds like anyone would be better off running smogon than ET. |

I think they don't mod just their friends. Some of their mods got their postition by being in the server lots of time and giving contributions in their forum, while showing they were worthy of it. I'm talking about Mekkah, who just recently became a mod. |

The spoils system was coined during the presidency of Andrew Jackson. When he became president, he made all his friends hold high positions in the U.S. government. They werent the best people for the job, so they sucked and the U.S. suffered for it. |

It happens a lot - inside and outside of government. That is just one thing that has happened to Smogon. |

Very much so. Giving your friends power is cool - but only if they deserve it, lest that power lead to ruin. |

Yes, I agree. It's ok to give power to friends, as long as they deserve it and you think they can handle it. |

That means my friends, you can give me power. And MotU was always saying the Flame board was his, but that was nonsense. He just used to say it because you could say anything there :] I still don't see why we shouldn't like Smogon. Just because a guy abuses his power it doesn't mean it's a bad server. |

Looks like they changed their way of acting a bit. I read a post where skarm strickly prohibited some stuff smogonites were used to do. |
