Okay, due to the complete deadness of the DCC in recent months, we, as in Ashley and I, think it would be more practical to just have one Daily Chit-Chat thread instead of monthly ones. If the DCC picks up in future months, we'll revert back to monthly or seasonal DCCs, but for now, we're just going to have the one thread.

Don't forget that the Other Chat rules (http://www.pkmncommunity.com/showthread.php?t=85143) apply when posting in thread, but more specially the chit-chat thread rules at the bottom.

Any questions you may have can be directed to myself or Ashley.

I know, who would have thought. XD But will little under 450 posts in a month, there's simply no point in having a thread for a new month. I mean, it'll take a whole year, if things stay the same as they are, for this thread to be big as one of the smaller monthly DCC from last year.

So, the monthly format has finally been abandoned. No opinion one way or the other.

Arcanine
July 30th, 2007, 05:00 AM
I wonder if people will be all "OMG NOOOOO I want monthly back!!!". If so then it'd be funny, seeing how everyone did that when we went from normal to Monthly, to Seasonal and so on. XD
We've come full circle with the DCC.

And REALLY wow.

Every person that posted before me so far are PC vets.

MAN I haven't seen you guys in a while. How are you guys doing?

We're all veterans up in here? I didn't even notice until you brought it up. O.o;

simpsonqueen
July 30th, 2007, 07:21 AM
Having only one DCC might make me post in here more. I might aswell subscribe to the thread now, not like I look in the subbies anymore. And the thing about the veterans only posting, Matt posted, and he like joined a month after me, so does that make me one? *Answers self* no. XD

Ullion
July 30th, 2007, 07:33 AM
I agree with Nica. Matt joined slightly before I, I think. ANd I ain't no vet here in PC, and I doubt Nica or Matt are. /=

Anyways, tis cool, maybe if you start to make the rest of PC follow suit, maybe PC will hit it's Golden Age again? ;D

oh crap. I thought Mattie-chan joined around June 2006.... man... I gotta get my head straight. I was thinkin' of Ray-chizzle. When I saw your profile, Nica, it said "April 2007" I mistook it as the april before I joined. Sorry for the mistake. <.<

Yours was a lot closer though. And I meant mini profile (the one on the far right on your posts).

So I guess that means I'm the newest member to post in here then? Wow... way to make me feel young and insignificant you guys. D:

OMG NOOOOO I WANT THE MONTHLY ONES BACK!!!

Well yeah, It all started when..*Flashback started*
I was browsing in PC and Browsing PB and looking for the Image "Ginban Kaleidoscope"
Anyways, Then I got to the OVP and nothing was there...I recieve a PM from someone and I forgot who it is...
Anyways, I click on the PM and suddenly I was in the OC Forum...
I saw, DCC...Of course I didn't wondered why DCC since I'm not good a analyzing things...
but the DCC thread was made by um...Arcanine..I dunno why, though
Well I usually have dreams that will happen...but I mostly for got that dreams and just remembered it when that happened O.o

Emma
July 30th, 2007, 08:10 PM
Only one DCC now. .O.

I don't think I've ever dreamt anything to do with the internet... well, if I did; I can't remember it. XD I've dreamt a lot about games I've played though and books I've read. D:

Same with me, I do dream about the last T.V. show I watched about falling asleep. I especially like it when I watch a reality TV show. Seriously I dream I'm on fear factor sometimes. It's creepy. If I watch "Who wants to be a millionaire" I win a million dollars, :) and usually if I watch an Action, yeah you know what happens. If I watch one of my little brothers movies. It gets creepy.

Ullion
July 30th, 2007, 09:09 PM
I'm quite sure I've had dreams about the internet; mostly related to games though. and maybe some inappropriate stuff too *whistle*

But Ryouki, that happens to me a lot too. Its kinda like deja vu, but you see it in your dreams instead of your imagination. Although it happens to me both ways.

Wait... does deja vu only come from dreams... or something? Mon dieu, je senti comme un idiote. D:

Lightning
July 30th, 2007, 10:10 PM
I know I've dreamt about people I've met on the internet, and I'm sure I've dreamt about something happening ON the internet, I just can't remember a dream like that. :x

Also, lol. Never thought I'd see the DCC revert back to one thread. :o

Sorairo
July 30th, 2007, 10:13 PM
True, true. Dreams about people online happen a lot I've heard. I had a dream about kay11190 from WAY back when, back when I talked to him everyday ;o;

Lightning
July 30th, 2007, 10:16 PM
Well, it's understandable, since a lot of people speak to their online friends just as often as their "real life" friends. I know it's that way for me now as it is every summer. :x

Sorairo
July 30th, 2007, 10:18 PM
Yep, I actually talk to some of my online friends more than my irl friends for some reason. Either they don't pick up their phone, or they're just way to busy to talk to me ;o;

Lightning
July 30th, 2007, 10:28 PM
Haha, I hate phones. I only talk to IRL friends now if we arrange to get together somewhere or else online and more often the latter. During the school year I'd see them all at school, but during the summer our means of contact are really no different from online friends. XD; And from now on it'll be the same since we're all going to different universities. ;_;'

Emma
July 30th, 2007, 11:49 PM
I rarely use my phone. I occassionally get texts and phonecalls but usually if my friends want to contact me. They talk to me on MSN, seeing as it's free and I'm on there most of the time anyway. XD;

The Daily Chit-Chat doesn't seem too bad, but I hope it gets more active than it has been the past few months. D:

Oh, I like my cell phone...but that's only because I've downloaded games on it and use it to check my e-mail when I'm bored and away from a source of internet. That's why I want a Blackberry for my next mobile instead of a traditional phone; it'll be more useful for me. XD;

Yusaku
July 31st, 2007, 12:20 AM
I like my cell phone even when no one calls me. E-mail is the number one thing I check once I get home, When I'm away, I have no other access to the internet, besides my cell phone. So I use it to check my email from my friends.

Lightning
July 31st, 2007, 12:58 AM

Really, the main reason I want a new phone is just so I can have a better screen to view e-mail on, whether or not it's actually a Blackberry or not. :|

Meh, I use my phone to make calls alot, and I'm one of those people who could sit there talking to the same person about whatever goes through my mind for the longest time, but there is something about actually reciving a call that just irritates me.

Basically, I make a rediculous amount of phone calls each month, but for some reason I hate picking up phone calls I get from other people xD

i have had the same phone for like, a year, and to be honest, i really don't plan on getting a new one until this one is just entirely busted up, beyond the point of getting in no use xD

Yusaku

I don't use my phone for anything that can charge me except the occasional e-mail check. xD I'm on a prepaid plan so I don't really have to worry about the bill. :x

Not that I use my phone much anyway. I just check e-mail on vacations or something. xD Usually it sits in my room either charging or dead.

July 31st, 2007, 01:32 AM
I hardly use my phone anymore. I feel like I don't have irl friends anymore. THANKS PC! O< I talk to most people over MSN, I don't own a cell phone (why the hell would I need one?) and most people that I do talk to are Marzy, Mattie-Chan and a few others from PC. So, yah. I've isolated my life... ya wanna fight about it?

And I actually figured something like this would happen. The DCC area is really inactive... so, yah. x:

Right now, I'm cellphoneless. If I want to call someone we got 2 cells and a land line. But maybe in a week or two I'll be getting my own cell (due to me getting off my butt and going to get my license). It's going to be a nice, Fire MotoKRZR (http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a247/Arcanine_PC/motorola_motokrzr_fire.jpg). Can't wait. XD

I wouldn't say that's the case for most people... like I have a phone and it's not the flashiest, best one out but still works fine. I mainly use it for the Java games that I've been downloading and texting. That's like it, unless I use the camera when needed to take photos with no other camera at hand. It's actually quite handy IMO to have a cell phone, capable of more than just calling and text messaging. But sometimes, some phones do go quite overboard, even if they have cool applications.

I agree with you on that. Technology is better these days. I don't want to be stuck with a cheap phone with calling and texting. I also use E-mail, Camera, Ringtones, Games, and most of the cell phone's applications. That's why I still love my phone.

I got one of those old bricks out the other day to have a look and I was like O.o when comparing it to my phone. xDD It didn't even have a colour screen!!

I actually try not using the texting and calling, it's so expensive and I just don't have the money to top up all the time D: which sucks. I'm reduced to, non-costing, easily accessible applications such as MP3 and gaming which I suppose is good enough on a phone although the screen's rather small. If it weren't so expensive for everything and say I had a bit more money to spend...

I usually try calling on the weekends, where it's free. I have no use using my cell phone on the weekdays anyway. I just go straight home after school. I might as well use the home phone.

Free? Lucky!! Texting used to be free here in the weekends, but not anymore which kinda sucks. Calling costs too much for me on my plan, so I just stick to texts if I can.

I rarely use my cell phone at school to be honest... it's at home when I use it more. Weird, huh? People never text me during the day... xDD

Well our holidays.

Half Term March, I think. - 1 Week.
Easter, April - 1 Week.

So 5 weeks approx. each year.

School doesn't start until September here. I move into my dorm and go to orientation/icebreakers for the first week of September, but my actual classes don't start until the second week of September. o.o

edit: Ah, that makes more sense, Tylphosion-Ex. Here, we get a two week break for Christmas and a week off for Spring Break, but that's it. We get the Friday and Monday off at Easter, and random PD days dispersed through the year, but the rest of our break is for summer. :x

I had to go to my school, then get on another bus to go to another school for French, so if I was late, I'd miss the bus. Never happened though, but I have cut it close.

dude, being perfectly honest, I probably only fell asleep once every 2 or 3 nights last year in school. Why? I live at least 30 minutes away from my school, I was like, the 3rd person who got picked up on my bus in the morning, and school started at like 7:10 Every day, so I had to be up at like, 5 AM.

Eventually, Like I said, I found a way around it, and attempted to just stay awake all night, and not have to worry about getting up in the morning. It workd for a good, oh, I'd say, 3 days before I came home and passed out in my room on the 4th day after school xD

I still managed to get ready, have a bit of free times and get to school which is roughly 5 minutes away from the school. I tend to feel more awake during the day if I get 5-6 hours sleep each night, no idea why, it's meant to be the opposite, right? XD

There was one morning where my alarm didn't go off and I ended up sleeping another couple of hours. .__. I woke up again at abot 7:40am and I had to be out of the house by 8:15am. I managed to do it, but I literally had to run around the house to get my stuff together and get ready in time. D:

I don't have an alarm either. During the school year I automatically wake up at 7am, but I don't have to get up until 7:30, so I fall back asleep again. My mum comes in at around half-past and calls my name, and it annoys me so much that I do just get up to stop her calling me. XD It works though, otherwise I'd just sleep and sleep.

Today, funnily enough, was the first day I woke up before noon during the summer. I guess it's because I'm sick and went to bed earlier last night, but it feels weird to be up early. If you can call 11am early, anyway.

The Cold war was a little boring in my opinion, but that's only because we were learning it from Australia's point of view, which wasn't really a major point of view.

It really depends on the teacher in my opinion.

Actually, I'll agree with that. My year eight/nine teacher hated me, I got level two's and three's. Which is C and D grade. And this year with another teacher, I got a B which is level four constantly, which is good.

If you had my teacher I would be surprised if you managed to stay awake. She has a monotone voice and it is so boring. No exaggeration or anything. Not many people in my class took it seriously.

If you do History at GCSE you are basically learning the same as you did when you were younger. Just gives some more description.
