The council does push its own agenda at times, there's no way to deny that, and the community is Smogon, essentially. I don't fully understand your statement. In order to be eligible to make a vote, you have to COIL. I can't just go to the forum and vote indiscriminately to have something moved to a new tier. The vote isn't always the voice of the entire community, but rather the voice of the community who ranked higher than others. For example, I didn't agree with M-Mawile being sent to Ubers, voted against it, and I hate seeing her waste away there where she has no usage. It's a little more convoluted than it appears.
Exactly. It's not the whole community that gets to speak, it's the skilled players. Which is fine to me, honestly. I wouldn't want someone who only plays smogon rules once every few weeks to have a say in any ban/movement. Also, as you said. Community = Smogon. They are one, essentially.
50 thousand people used to live here...Now it's a ghost town.
