Basically it's the stream chat in subreddit form.
Gee, I can't figure out why that would be bad

r/kappa sure does suck though... it's like if people magazine only wrote about the FGC and was only written by man-children. grown ass people constantly gossiping is something im never gonna dig.
i think recording the funny parts of the fgc is rad and people like basedmonster do an excellent job of that but fixating on gossip & rumors & who fucked who is so incredibly bitchy.

There are two parry buttons, one for high parries and one for low parries. Parrying is somewhat low-risk compared to 3rd strike, but there is a counter-hit state if you are hit immediately after missing a parry or parry the wrong hit zone.
afaik, it's using button. Has universal overheads and unblockables.
There's actually a section for Yatagarasu at the mizuumi wiki.
With pictures of normals and their hitboxes.

keep in mind that anyone can make a subreddit, so if the atmosphere of r/kappa is that bothersome nobody is being stopped from making their own FGC subreddit that only concentrates on the "good" stuff
EDIT: ha i love the r/kappa subreddit changed the viewers text to jaxel's tears

Isn't it moreso that they're a perfect match?
VxG as an event as pretty much done the exact same thing. lol
VxG pretty much seems like the last bastion for every toxic community figure that the broader FGC wants absolutely nothing to do with anymore
It really isn't bad at all. It has a voice and isn't scared to call people out, sure there's going to be a few bad threads and a few bad posters but that's any forum/community ever. Surely if it was so bad you wouldn't have people like Xian & other pillars in the community posting there daily. But you're free to your opinion man.
So FGW?
those guys go in harder than us.
yeah, even james chen whom I think posts more at r/kappa than fgw and ultradavid frequent the subreddit as well.
Thanks dudes. I bought version 4.3 (I think) but I did so during the school year and haven't really played it

And it's not like I haven't bitched about that kind of behavior here from time to time, either.
There are just some posters over there that have grudges against FGC personalities so severe as to be simultaneously fascinating and disgusting. And there's such a mob mentality to everything that way too much of that stuff gets traction and support.
UNIB EXE Late TV Showcase in Japan and I do think that's Kayo Police hosting?
r/kappa is stream monster home base.
Sometimes it's not so bad, some times (like right now) there's a shitpost like this: http://www.reddit.com/r/Kappa/comments/2b4d2u/a_photo_i_took_at_evo_shortly_after_justins/
I try to avoid Reddit anyway. I keep getting linked there.

it is.
Jyosua is restreaming the Guilty Gear tournament that happened at Evo for everybody who missed it (also because the internet was poop and only the top 8~ was streamed). Of what I did watch during Evo was very exciting so I recommend watching it. There was also a lot of entrants.

So after 2 years of Skullgirls, Melty Blood, and GGPO I've finally bought a new fighting game.
Yay BlazBlue Chrono Phantasma
Yay BlazBlue Chrono Phantasma
Yep, I don't want to play the ~rkappa has more fgc celebs~ card because that's based on a number of things (No silly waiting period for account approval, unfiltered content so they can speak their minds).
I think people also forget rkappa has done a lot of good. I mean shit they sent 3 players to evo and for the most part they all did really well, a lot of people seem to love the shirt design and we were rocking them at evo, such as gooteck.
Art is live with a tournament in Long Island. Says will have TTT2, GG, USF4 and UMvC3.

I feel bad defending Jaxel like I did in the past. That was based on my interactions with him over the years long ago, where I felt he did a lot of good, especially for lesser-known games. Shame he threw that away, and I don't see a way for him to get back into things, and I don't think he'd particularly want to anymore.
As for Yata, I funded it so I'll get the game when it comes out, though I didn't really click with any of the 8 original chars at first- I'd want to try the 3 new ones.

Awesome stuff, really looking forward to your vids on it and thanks for all the resources.
I really hope it succeeds too, and will definitely get it day one.
My char will probably be Hanzo, she just clicked with me in the little 4.3 that I've played
My account was just getting approved around that time and man, Jaxel got proved wrong and ate his humble pie. But seriously, still salty about that? Dude, man up to your mistakes and move on, it only shows how immature you are when you handle the situation like this. When you are in the limelight or a figure in a community, people basically see you as a higher figure and you are expected to perform as such. If not and you want to whine and its your fault for bringing this upon yourself, then gtfo.
I know right!
Jaxel should remain in the shadow realm, where he belongs.

This whole call people out mantra that developed recently is a really shoddy defense at posting Sherryjenix's phone conversations.
You guys aren't policing the community so much as discovering their dirty laundry and parading around it with memes for your own enjoyment. Granted, some things in the community do need to be exposed but the best intentions aren't there.
Also as far as fgc celebs go, like the Cannons as you mentioned, most people do it to stop the mob mentality/hivemind on topics kappa is wrong about. Cross your fingers that their post doesn't get downvoted.
Finally, you want to know a funny thing? I post what I think all the time on sites like neogaf. I don't need this "freedom". Maybe because I'm not an idiot?

something to watch today, nice.
You have to be very new to the scene if you honestly think calling people out is a new thing, in the FGC even. The same things happened on SRK way back when as well. You should google around about Duc Do and the shit he did, priceless stuff man. Your most people only posting to stop bad rumors is also wrong as well, but once again man you're free to believe what you want, but it really sounds like you're gasping for straws~
I can completely understand not liking the style or format of the site and how unfiltered it is, it's not for everyone and I'll be the first to say reddit is an ugly 1997 looking website, but to say rkappa is bad because one dude posted a thread about sherry sleeping with noel isn't really a case to hate something.
But I digress, you're free to your opinion on the site and it's clear nothing I can say will change your mind~

fuckin' called it, man
Sounds like OBS in text form. In fact I feel the same way about the two.

i'm not gonna defend r/kappa when they post stupid shit, but that's what comes with the territory with anything goes. the sherryjenix stuff was in the beginning of r/kappa, and honestly i don't know if that would fly in today's r/kappa.
you are free to call out the posters and the threads. in fact i have done so many times and people have backed me up.
it's not about being stupid in terms of posting on neogaf, but i'm not gonna deny that while i post as civil as i can in neogaf, saying the wrong thing (and wrong being subjectively being "this gaf mod has an opposing opinion") can get you bopped.
r/kappa can also be used for good. they got 3 players to evo. they donated money to a transgender fgc player so she could get her hormone treatments.
in fact, that's what has been happening. certain players and celebrities have managed to influence the flow of r/kappa towards worthwhile causes, because they recognize that at the end of the day most of it is just shooting the shit.
plus shouta doesn't let me talk about thick asians :C

Seems like a pretty good case to me. That's a pretty good example of "unfiltered" being a bad thing.
I don't really think ill of the place, but I think anyone who does based on something like that happening there is pretty justified

I have never read a reddit thread. The website could not exist and it wouldn't matter to me.
Truth be told, I am tempted to get it and pick up Azrael. But I told myself only PS4 fighters from now on...
I know we joke about this, but who is in this thread really doesn't play? We all do, as far as I know.
Damn! What made you go with that in particular?

I've not had any longevity problems with my SFxT pad and i've had it for 18 months. But i do only use it for Capcom games.
The d-pad is not much like any other. It's kinda raised so it needs more movement than a normal d-pad. I like it for qcf-hcb motions and such though. I only wish the buttons took slightly less force to push.
ATL Tekken Underground Tournament started a while ago. Some of the best players in the nation are here:

Moreover, these threads pretty much always have on topic game discussion going on.
If r/kappa is really just a drama/stream monster outlet, then there must be a significant difference.
