I'm completely done with the fighting game community

[Beemz💖]

Between top players in Smash getting outed as paedophiles and getting told by people in Brawlhalla on a regular basis that they are going to rape me and I should kill myself, this community just sickens me now. The report system in Brawlhalla is an absolute joke, and the general vibe in all of the FGC whether that be Skullgirls or Street Fighter just sucks. I'm outta here.

Cry me a river, your the first.

You trying to be sarcastic? I can't really tell. Considering recent circumstances, BMG really need to get their stuff together to improve the community.

[ShadyCloud]

Having a thread relating to 'bmg ain't improving their game' doesn't give them any reaction to change and develop.

Brawlhalla is not the only toxic game on the market, but yes I will agree salt and toxicity comes in much higher saturation compared to other games, and yeah it's quite a big problem, but if that really bothers you just gg and leave.

[Beemz💖]

Did you even read my message? Explaining about state of the entire FGC? Jesus man, read my comment before you assume it's just another leaving post.

[ShadyCloud]

Only really paid attention to the last part "I'm out of here" as it relates to every other thread talking about the lack of content bmg releases or toxicity from the community.

[Beemz💖]

Content? I'm not talking about content. I couldn't care less about adding new content, the game is fine as it is bar a few changes that could be done to gameplay, but that's much less important than the state of the community.

Are you really at the stage where you accept the fact that this community is filled with people who claim they want to rape you? Not to mention that the highly related game Smash Bros just got a very, VERY large amount of their top players outed as actual rapists? Do you not see how much of an issue this is?

Please. If you're doing this to just be annoying then go away. I'm trying to make a point that now is a time more crucial than ever that BMG addresses the issues within their specific part of the fighting game community.

[ShadyCloud]

Welp, I am off.

I wish you goodluck.

[Beemz💖]

You too. Just know that when the top players of this part of the community are engaging and addressing these serious and dangerous allegations in another part of it, you know there is a problem that has to be addressed.

Claiming they want to is different than actually doing it. People say stupid ♥♥♥♥ when they're mad they lose. It's a part of any competitive game, not at all specific to Brawlhalla. I don't know what Brawlhalla you're playing where this is apparently a common enough occurrence for it to be an issue, but across 2 years and almost 500 hours, i've never seen this once.

As for the Smash thing, that's again not at all related to Smash. It's people with power thinking that they're above the law because they have the power. As professionals at a game, (most of which having no sex life due to the aforementioned game taking up most of their lives and making them have less social skills than your average person) they get attention and admiration that they wouldn't otherwise get, and they let it go to their head. For a more indepth look, check out Vaush's video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgZDjpiuvu0

But it's not a smash problem, it's a problem relating to those with power. You'll notice it's not just pro gamers, it's also politicians, millionaires, high ranking executives, etc. Anyone with power over another can let it go to their head; that's how something like this happens.

The very fact that there are these claims and these comments going around in the first place is a Big ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Problem. The act of "normalising" talk of rape and suicide is an issue and in my opinion quite clearly leads to people using it as an "excuse", and genuinely does drive people to the edge.

Maybe in your region the toxicity isn't so bad? Perhaps it's also to do with gamemode, rank, playstyle and character as well. I can safely say that between 1 in 5 and 1 in 3 of the PC players I fight against on any given day have some nasty ♥♥♥♥ to say to me.

Grow a backbone

Seriously? That's your reply to people's awfulness, and addressing the issue of actual rape and actual suicide? How immature.

bro, I've had more ppl tryin to add me having a previous good convesation and fun in the match rather than that . it happened only once or twice when I started 2 years ago, but still as @DegenerateWeeb said: " it's a problem relating to those with power. You'll notice it's not just pro gamers, it's also politicians, millionaires, high ranking executives, etc. Anyone with power over another can let it go to their head; that's how something like this happens."

so yes it's not a fighting games problem, I mean it is, but its just another reflection of how much harm we humans can do to each other, or even other species, planets... and money and power feed those a lot. here politicians have stolen HUGE amount of public money creating a huge debt, they are "Teros Rists" in suits. and some pros must use the fame and the high influence to do bad stuff

I've been alot bullied when I was young. Reason for that? I kept silence and never fought back because I was a coward and a complete nincompoop. I'm pretty sure you are familiar with the term 'Anime'. So yeah, I discovered 'Anime' back then and taught me alot of all sorts of things: life, friends, bullies, love, family, etc you name it. There were stories where the protagonist actually fought back against the bullies and I could relate to his/her story very much. As grew older, I learned how to say 'No' to things that I don't like. Fight back against people who took advantage of me. Shout out to others how I feel.

It's just so happens we were on the bad side of the coin. I realized that the coin won't just magically flip to the good side on its own but rather I have to do it with my own strength.

Now, It's do or die for me. You're a good guy? Sure, we can be good friends. You're a bad guy? Make my words in hell that I'll be your worst enemy.

It's not just that the community itself is the problem but also the receivers; learn how to pick yourself up. Learn to fight back! The world isn't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a fight for survival. If you let mere words affect you then you already lost the battle.

I know my story is weird but 'Anime' really did opened my eyes to the truth of this world. Everyone has that medium that changes them. It just so happens its 'Anime' for me.


Or you can ignore me, just an 'Anime' freak passing by xD

As I said, grow a backbone. People with high will power like me never use snowflake words like toxicity or judge one community for some bad apples. The world will be better without people like you anyways.
