The history of the smash community spans about 14 years, mostly beginning with the creation of Smashboards which has become a major intersection for playing and discussing the Super Smash Bros. franchise. Some milestones include ''Melee'''s inclusion in professional tournament circuits such as MLG in 2006 and again at Evo in 2007{{ref|Melee@MLG}}, the creation of the [[Global Smasher Compendium]] (now discontinued), a successful petition for ''Melee'' to be broadcast at Evo{{ref|EvoPetition}}, and the first unofficial community census in 2013. | The history of the smash community spans about 14 years, mostly beginning with the creation of Smashboards which has become a major intersection for playing and discussing the Super Smash Bros. franchise.

In recent years the community has participated in the official franchise domain. Many members submitted [[Target Smash!]] and [[Home-Run Contest]] high [[scores]] as well user-generated content to the ''[[Brawl]]'' Smash Bros. [[Dojo]]!! while it was still being updated. The community is also partly responsible for some of the changes seen in newer Smash Bros. titles such as the inclusion of the third party characters [[Sonic]] in ''[[Brawl]]'' and [[Mega Man]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' by submitting requests and participating in polls. | |||
