Because people who are new to Smashboards do not use the Search Function, ever... I have taken it upon myself to create this for the Link boards. The following links contain important information on Link, including known AT's, matchups, strategies, known but "unknown" things (such as the dtilt spike).

This is to help reduce the spam in the Link boards by having a thread act as the "search function".

1. Guides
2. Discussions
3. Other/Data

Very nice list lol This should keep some spam down... >_>
Hopefully. However, a lot of spam occurs on these boards due to the fact that the people who visit/post on the Link boards don't read the important threads/stickies to begin with.
The best way to get spam to cut down to zero is to entitle the entire Link section as:

Link (FOR LINK MAINS ONLY)

We just need other mainers to know that we already know about their "discoveries". Even if we have to type it out for them. If that doesn't work, TYPE LOUDER.

There are 3 types of spammers:

1. Those who don't use the Search Function (so hopefully this helps kill some of those off)

2. Those who don't read stickies (this won't help then, if it gets stickied)

3. Those who are just spammers (gotta kill'em all?)

I wish we had an admin to organize the stickies a bit more... We don't need Izaw's sticky anymore because that vids in the archive. We need to sticky this and perhaps the Question & Answer thread.

I've been wanting something like this for a while, not for spam, but because we have several threads that seem sticky worthy but would make the sticky area ridiculously cluttered. If you do request a sticky for this thread, which I would encourage, ask them to please replace that god **** "weekly character discussion: link" thread with this one.

I dont see why its so hard for some people just to use the search function, and why ignore the stickies? Their right there!:mad:
That's like asking how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop.

My new guide on projectile spamming. It's by no means a full blown thing but I think its worthwhile to note. It's more of a tips and hints thing than a full blown guide. It does go in depth to the projectile metagame that is Links. It might turn out to be a discussion topic though that was not the intended use. I'll be happy if it does turn out like that. You can categorize it as whatever you want.

Updated with the discontinued matchup thread, and tier list thread.

If anyone wants to quote me, make a new thread, and keep that updated, go ahead. I'm not going to be updating this anymore.

You have Bouses Matchup guide on there twice.

LeeHarris' general discussion is locked.

There is a new Tier List by Ray Kalm that should replace WaffleZ list.

Swordplays guide on projectile use deserves a head nod to be on a guide for this list.


Edit: Don't forget to add the chatroom link to this list.

Seems open now.

Well, I'll start digging into this right now. Hopefully I'll have this all read by tonight.

I noticed the Link finder is outdated and closed.

Could someone start up another one?

Unfortunately, it can't be me just this instant. In a week or two weeks, though... I could definitely take that on.
