No, it’s because I though with you beginning it with “Fair enough” in the beginning that it was a good enough stopping point xP But I suppose I’ll answer it here anyway then

“Fair enough, but from I’ve heard from a few sources, most of the users on Smashboards are the ones who trash those who have the audacity to have an "unpopular” opinion.“

Yeah it’s true that Smashboards does sometimes lead to countless debates between those who preferred Brawl or Melee that don’t lead to any progress whatsoever. Though I hear it was much worse years ago when at the time I had left Smashboards some time after Brawl had released (I hear 2009 was pretty much the peak of Melee Vs. Brawl debates on Smashboards). These days it’s apparently more subdued on Melee Vs. Brawl but there’s still occasional aftershocks that sometimes end up coming out if a thread basically calls out either game. At the very least, I think much of the opinions have been quarted down to an actual Unpopular Opinions thread they have going in the Smash 4 section which is just as easy as just ignoring the thread. Cause in an Unpopular opinions thread anyway, the very purpose of this threads is to vent some like for something that is really unpopular or dislike for something that is really popular without making themselves look like jerks that spread their opinion that they know would trigger a flamewar on places they shouldn’t.

At the very least, I don’t see alot of Brawl Vs. Smash 4, Melee Vs. Smash 4, or Project M Vs. Smash 4…yet, anyway. Or at the very least I’ve managed to avoid most of the threads with such arguments these days.
