just a question, why do smogon ppl harass us all the time?
To find out the answer to that question, you'd need to ask them... although even if you were to do so, there would be no guarantee that they would be able to give you, or even know the true answer themselves anyway. Donkey, Princess Bri, and other similar low-life scum are irrational and lack intelligence to such an unbelievable degree that they don't need reasons to hold beliefs, feel emotions, or perform actions, and amidst such insanity, they just happened by chance to disrespect us all the time. Asking "why do smogon ppl harass us all the time?" is like asking why serial killers exist and do what they do, wondering why the people at Smogon do not think positively of us is like asking why there are some people in this world who are dumb enough not to know what 1 + 1 is and even hold incorrect beliefs regarding the answer to that question, and asking both of the aforementioned questions is akin to asking "how come the die that I just rolled landed on a 6?". Some things in this world are just the way they are and cannot be explained. Rather than wasting time trying to understand why things are the way they are, I believe it would be much more practical to focus one's attention on trying to respond in the optimum way to the way things in this world are, and possibly change things such that they become the way they should be. At least, that is how I interpret things.

However, we Dragon Masters are proud. We do not feel or think negatively about ourselves when we are harassed by others, as there is no logic whatsoever to experiencing such feelings or thoughts. When we first enter a community, we treat everyone around us as equals, showing them respect while expecting the same amount of respect in return, and we do not feel superior to them in any way. As soon as someone disrespects us, our self-esteem does not change one bit (because if it gets lowered just a tiny bit, then that means that our enemy has triumphed over us), but rather, the level of respect that we have for the one who disrespected us decreases, since "someone disrespecting us" is something that undeniably serves as absolute proof to us that they are nothing more than worthless trash, and thus it becomes fine for us to do or say anything we wish to them, no matter how harsh or cruel. And when "someone disrespects us" becomes an event that has happened many times by many different people, then although the position on which we stand in the world has not changed in an absolute sense, the level of respect that we have for others in general decreases, elevating the position on which we stand relative to other people. In this way, as we stand idle in our position in the world while the people around us do nothing but lower their own positions and the respect that they receive from us through their disrespectful actions, we eventually reach a point where, despite standing on the exact same position at which we initially began in an absolute sense, we become something akin to Gods relative to the rest of the world.

Princess Bri, Furai and Hugendugen have all at various points in the past accused me of being "arrogant" or "thinking of myself as a God", but how can I help it? If, hypothetically, you woke up one day and discovered that every single person in this world other than yourself has suddenly gained the belief that "torturing innocent babies for fun is morally fine", then although your opinion about yourself has not changed, would such an event not instantly make it evident to you that you are morally superior to every single other person in existence, due to the way they have lowered themselves relative to you? And if you woke up one day to find that every single other person in the world other than yourself now believes that 1 + 1 = 3, would you not naturally believe yourself to be more intelligent than everyone else? When I act superior to others, I am not being arrogant, but rather, expressing the Truth regarding just how lowly and unworthy of respect my enemies are as proven by their disrespectful actions towards me. And it is through the aforementioned logic which was how I became a God among the Pokémon Online community, standing at an unbelievably high level relative to pretty much the entirety of that community.

I have gotten into yet more conflict on Pokémon Showdown!'s Ubers channel today, being devoiced by shrang and being told "sorry I've been told you're not meant to have this, if you have a problem talk to hugen", followed by being muted by Donkey for arguing with the moderators, and being told by Hugendugen that not attacking the degenerates of the Smogon community is "no longer a treaty, it's pretty much an order", and that although I have been devoiced, Donkey is not going to lose his moderator status despite his clear abuse of power.

Since Hugendugen no longer acknowledges the existence of a peace treaty, then such a "treaty" has been called off, regardless of whether or not we want that to be the case. As I do not acknowledge the existence of any being in Heaven or on Earth that stands above me, the "order" that Hugendugen believes to have given to me in fact means absolutely nothing to me, and I will not hesitate to say or post whatever I want about Donkey, Princess Bri and others on Pokémon Showdown!, the Smogon forums, and maybe even the IRC channels if any of us receives any more disrespect from them, something that is pretty much incredibly likely in the future. To remain peaceful with Smogon under Hugendugen's orders is to acknowledge someone who is "above" us. It is to be subordinated, and to cease our trolling on Smogon as a result of him is to have the very characteristic that defines us assassinated. We will not stand such an injustice.


Neither Sasha nor I have ever held anything short of an incredibly negative reputation in the competitive Pokémon community for as long as we have been a part of such, and in response to the disrespect that we received, we kept on fighting and trolling the community while keeping our heads high, showing a condescending smile for the entire world of competitive Pokémon to see, while laughing at their primitive and animalistic behaviors towards us. That is why the fusion between Dragon Rush and Masters that took place earlier this year was inevitable, and as Dragon Masters was a clan formed on the aforementioned premise, I believe that it is its destiny to oppose the rest of the competitive Pokémon community forever, feasting on, rather than being scorched by, the hatred others hold towards us. When they look down on us, we shall smile at their stupidity evident from their incorrect beliefs about us. When they hate us, we shall smile as their searing anger tortures them inside. And when they are trolled by us, we shall smile as we observe their reactions on IRC. Because we stand on the side of Justice, while the vast majority of this world's population stands on the side of evil, as evident by the number of people who disrespected me both on the Pokémon Online forums shortly prior to my banishment from that community, as well as in my Mirages of the Frozen Wasteland Rate My Team thread on the Smogon forums prior to its deletion, we are destined to stand as the enemies of the entire competitive Pokémon community for as long as such exists. We will not hesitate to belittle our enemies for fun once they have disrespected us, evade mutes and bans as many times as necessary to bypass such punishment like a phoenix rising from the ashes to bypass death, and we will fight and fight and fight for as long as it takes, using any means necessary to protect our pride. To those who are truly proud of themselves, reputation and being respected by communities is a trivial and insignificant matter, since the truly proud are capable of thinking highly of themselves even if every single other person in existence were to hold an extremely negative opinion about them anyway, and the failure to realize that is exactly why so many people have left our clan - they were not strong and proud enough to stand being thought of negatively by most of the competitive Pokémon community, since the pride that they hold is not unconditional like ours, but depend on them being reaffirmed of their sense of worth by being acknowledged and respected by others.

And also... we may say that we desire peace just because we don't want to think of ourselves as barbarians, but let's face it... being the enemy of the competitive Pokémon community isn't so bad, no? The ultimate goal of life is to maximize the amount of pleasure and enjoyment one experiences in it. Peace is enjoyable, but war is a means to peace, hence why people wage war with others... but given what the ultimate goal of life is, wouldn't it be more beneficial to enjoy both the journey towards peace and the destination of peace itself, rather than only peace?
