I joined PC for Shiny Gold.

[Palamon]

YES, SOMEHOW THAT JOKE IS STILL RELEVANT NOW. But, why did you join PC? Did you join for Shiny Gold?

---

I didn't join PC for ROMHacking. I think I remember why I joined... to find new friends/old friends from other communities. I definitely didn't join for ShinyGold since I joined PC during 2009. But, I joined PC because I used to literally join every single Pokemon forum I could ever find. Yeah.

I actually joined because well... it's hard to explain. I came from a digimon forum at the time, which is now closed down I guess. I followed my ex-best friend here, but we were enemies at the time. I thought it looked like a pretty neat place. I've been here off and on for nearly eleven years now. It's amazing how far I've come on this place. From being that annoying n00b to a much more civilized person... I guess you could say.

I have a lot of history here; both good and bad. PC is like my second home. Not that my first home isn't bad or anything. It's just because every time I go to other forums, it doesn't feel the same. So, PC is really the only forum I seem the most active on. At the time, I was into Digimon still. I did play the Pokemon games from time to time though. It wasn't until I got older that I started getting more into pokemon than Digimon after hanging around on PC.

No interesting story really. I didn't join for a specific ROM hack, but because I wanted to try hacking myself. Nowadays, I'm active in a lot of parts of the forum, but ROM hacking isn't really one of them.

i joined pc so i could trade pokemon :3 lol i don't do that anymore!

 

[Sirfetch’d]

I was bored and had no one to talk Pokemon with in real life really so I signed up! Didn't really expect to stick around or partake in many discussions but almost 3 years later, here I am still!

 

[Crunch Punch]

Holy muk how did you know

Seriously though I actually did initially join just for ROM Hacks but decided on the same day to stick around, see how it goes. Two years later I'm still here.

 

[Lumina]

I joined cuz I got banned for a week from BMGf.

 

[Sirfetch’d]

Because I just wanted another community to frequent since before PC I used to frequent some DBZ forum at the time iirc and it was just starting to bore me/wasn't really becoming that interested in it, so there's that.

^She actually joined for the free cookies js

 

[maccrash]

I joined PC because Luck Hax / George made me. we needed a new internet home and he suggested this. he's been having computer troubles lately, which could be the root of why he's not around much anymore, but I have no idea if he's coming back. ): I hope so.

I guess you can say I came for the same reason as Castform here, where I live nobody talks games or anything, so I wanted to talk Pokemon with people, simple as that.

 

[dad]

getting pokemon for christmas was really just an excuse to join. my friends died off on my old forum. i'm sure they'll migrate back as soon as a new game is released.

 

[Yukari]

I joined because there was a rom hacking section and I just wanted to download a game but I had to sign up to do so. I never intended to actually stay here, though I'm glad I did.

 

[Ivysaur]

I joined PC for Shiny Gold.

In fact, I probably wouldn't have joined if zel had kept an updated version of his hack in the Spanish forums I joined first! What a terrible loss that would have been D;

 

[Spiff]

I joined because I just think it's cool to interact with people you don't know and never will. It's kind of exciting really, and this place particularly just seemed more urbane and such -- for a pokemon forum anyhow

 

[Salzorrah]

Joined not from Shiny Gold, but for literally just downloading Snakewood back in December 2010. I didnt even post my first post till February 2011. 5 years later, this has become my home <3

 

[Pendraflare]

I joined PC because I was led here by a challenger's video.

I'm not a ROM hacker.

 

[Sylphiel]

I joined because I wanted to show off sprites and artwork of mine. :')

That and I felt like I could use another pokemon forum to hang around on, so. I forget exactly how I found this place, but I decided to give it a go and welp here I am many years later.

 

[Hikamaru]

I didn't join for ROM hacks. I was just looking for somewhere else to go after I was driven out of my previous forum by mod power abuse, yet wasn't expecting myself to survive one year let alone four.

 

[Lucid]

I've never even been in the ROM threads... I joined back in 2004 looking for PokeSpecial scans, met some people, stuck around, modded for a bit, disappeared for a while then come back on occasion. I'm like the herpes of PC.

 

[Megan]

Some random romhack made me join, because joining was the only way to download it. Well, the hack was terrible, but at least it made me create this account.
