I'm with this guy.
Gimpyfish is not a god. Don't just blindly follow the ways of some dude you don't even know because you saw a youtube video about him. Be an individual.
I have to say this:
If he didn't have importance then why are you discussing his opinions? Why are you outraged or frustrated about his opinions or even have to say that you won't follow them. If I said that I hated Fox you would probably talk for a minute or two about how I have no clue what I'm talking about and then move on.
But no one would make a thread on the Fox boards with the title "Proverbs still doesn't like Fox?" Clearly Gimpy has some standing if a thread was even made about his opinion. But if you don't care about his opinion then don't care. It doesn't matter.
From what I know of him, I respect Gimpy as an individual. I can even understand if he hates Ness. Some characters I really dislike or think shouldn't be in Brawl. For example, Wario is the most disgusting and horrible character ever. I don't care if he's good, he's gross and stupid. I might not say that out loud like I just did normally, but that's how I feel about Wario. Similarly, I really think Snake shouldn't have been put in Brawl due to him being completely outside of Nintendo. Although I don't hate Snake as a character.
Anyway, just a small rant about how Gimpyfish must have importance if people are to talk about his opinions. No one's going to post on the Wario or Snake boards about my opinions. That is because they don't matter to you at the moment. However, Gimpyfish's opinions must matter for topics like these to be made.
I'm not defending his opinion, however, nor saying we should follow him or agree with him. I'm just saying that this thread proves his opinions matter to us even to a small degree.
