Please note
That having a mental disorder does not excuse you from raging or acting extremely hostile towards any user. Multiple users on this Wiki have an autism spectrum disorder (which includes Asperger syndrome) and still behave appropriately, if not sometimes much more mature, than others users who lack the disorder(see Toomai). I'm not telling you that you cannot rage, but I am telling you that having a mental disorder isn't a "get out of trouble" card. MegaTron1XD 11:06, 2 July 2012 (EDT)
On tiers
We do not allow harassment of users over their personal opinions, including their stance on tiers. That being said, everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts. As the majority of the Smash community accepts, and empirical results confirm, the existence of tiers, SmashWiki believes that tier lists, matchup charts and the like are important content and should be retained. Discussion about the existence of tier lists, and the competitive viability of characters in general should be confined to the forums. Mousehunter321 (talk · contributions) 11:41, 2 July 2012 (EDT)
