    So what'd be a good thread to ask why stuff like arena trap was ever allowed in OU in the first place?

    That does not really require a thread. Questions in general go in the SQSA, but that really is not a question that warrants much of an elaborate answer. You cannot ban things that have been just borderline/controversial historically when a whole new generation comes up.

    The initial banlist is historically conservative and the tiering process is there to weed out things like Arena Trap if they are proven banworthy, which is likely to be the case.

    Yeah that's what I meant by finding a good thread for it, but seems as if you mistook it for "what type of thread is these types of questions to be made for and where do I make it?". So sorry you misunderstood. But anyways, thanks for answering my question. I'll keep stuff like this in mind next time I have any questions on the OU metagame.

    Don't bother with Orifice Annihilator, from his username and his behavior in the suspect thread it's clear he is only here to troll and waste people's time.

    That's why I gave him the trolling infraction and told him not to post in the thread anymore. Bothering with trolls is part of my job as moderator. Someone has to prevent the threads from derailing.

    What I meant was he probably deserved a Malicious Account infraction.

    Probably, but we cannot hand those out liberally as there's no proof of him being an alt and there's not enough evidence to ban without prior warning.

    Hi Finch, big fan, here to schedule for POWC. As I'm still forced to work full-time, I'd prefer playing on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. I'm GMT+1, so we're 5 hours apart, should be doable! I'd be available from ~7:30 PM my time on those days until late into the night :)

    if you want to play early, feel free to message me on discord (Finchinator#4129) or on SmogTours (Finchinator). If not, the scheduled time later works as well!
    I heard on Twitter that you wet the bed.

    I'm not sure what you mean in the On The Radar thread about Home changing many things, but hopefully you can clarify. I fail to see how it fundamentally changes anything about Dugtrio/Arena Trap's competitiveness. I don't think it's fair to call it theorymon to say that fundamentally uncompetitive things should be banned regardless of whether or not dozens of new Pokemon/moves just got dropped on the tier.

    How bad was the OU Metagame Discussion thread getting? Or was it to the point where it would’ve made you (or me) want to refrain from taking in oxygen?

    i don't think you understand what is possible or what you are arguing. there is always going to be things that /have/ to happen behind the scenes. as a councilmen and tier leader, i know that and acknowledge that. i have made the process as public and transparent as possible.

    you are asking for shit that just is not possible if you want more. i have bee nfighting for the things you are asking for and making things like the radar thread possible. i do not know what more you want, but it is not realistic.

    this is getting bothersome at this point b/c i spend hours of my time trying to improve this and most people are thankful, but you seem to not be that whatsoever, so this conversation's useful life is over. lmk if you have any other questions

    My man Jeter deserved the unanimous, but still extremely happy he got in. One of my inspirations growing up to play baseball. Also happy with Larry Walker getting in as a canadian myself
    Hi. I've recently been locked out of my showdown account due to forgetting my password. If there is any help you can offer me I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

    i'd log onto an alt and pm a high staff member that is online on PS, they will likely have better instructions than i can provide
