  • I try to, only reason I haven't been is because I have been busy and don't have much time to post here lately...

    I'll try to get in more often. Heheh
    thank you for the profile compliment. In the case of my signature, it is featuring Sapphire from the Pokéspecial manga, who does have fangs I believe. I'm not too sure on that as I don;t personally read the manga, but I direct you to Abnegation, who was the creator of the image in my signature. I'm sure he can be definitive as to whether sapphire does indeed have fangs.
    I WANNA BE A SCIENTIST!
    I love science and things like that. I have read Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time a million times now. I love physics, and astronomy, and wanna do something to better mankind, like find a way to convert solar energy more efficiently. Do you have a user group going? If so I'd wanna join.
    NEEEVER mind, I read your signature, noticed the link...
    Mmhm. First off, lemme apologised for replying so late. I've missed a lot if school, and I've been sick fir the last two weeks, as well as trying to catch up on schoolwork.... Also your VM happened to get lost in a sea of other VMs, so... Yeah.

    To answer your question, no, I'm not connected to that chap. In fact, I've never gone on /rk9/, lol. I've only gone to 4Chan twice. Once when I didn't know what it was and someone linked me to it in the DCC. The second time, I got 4Chanrolled in an MSN convo. Both of these links lead me to /b/.

    The reason I have 'quite the card for a young 4Channer is because two years ago when I trolled my first forum I used sone 4Chan Memes... Without knowing they were memes, lol.
    What I would have wanted to say here a few days ago when I was still cooling off would be something along the lines of "Where exactly are you coming up with this crap like 'The particles in energy...', the insinuation that energy has volume, that plasma is an energy, and so on. Energy doesn't work that way."

    However, I'm cool as ice now so I think I'm starting to read between the lines better. The stuff you were saying there, as much as it flew over most people's heads, was already dumbed down so "normal" people could comprehend it. The particles of energy thing, I'm guessing you meant something like "particles containing kinetic energy" seeing as energy by definition is not matter and so can't be composed of particles, which are matter. With the plasma stuff, I'm assuming now you're referring to it in reference to the mass of light Pokemon are turned into when they go into a Pokeball, and from there not meaning the volume of energy necessarily but the volume of plasma assuming that all of a Pokemon's mass was converted to plasma; all while skipping over the fact that plasma is really just a state of matter, albeit a more energetic one, so as not to confuse people more than need be.

    I think I understand what you're saying there now and why Redstar linked me to that post. However, that's all based on the assumption that they're converted into plasma and everything which is quite a stupid thing for him to assume when he sticks to canon so much and nothing in canon necessarily says that it's plasma... I myself have my own fan explanation for how it all works but I'd be the first to admit that my own theories aren't canon. I see that you also advocate that they're "digitized" as he puts it, so I'll keep any more of my personal opinions out of this.

    So yeah. Nothing against you now that I've cooled off. Being in college and just having finished two semesters of chemistry with two semesters of physics coming up (following up the physics AP I took in high school) I guess you could just say I'm more "sensitive" to errors in scientific explanations and everything than most people, and when combined with me being in a rage due to a certain argument... Things can go bad. Then again I don't know why he was reading a VM conversation I was having anyway. That's kind of rude, especially to bring it up to someone else.
    Well, yes, the MissingNo. article generally has all that information... But she also did a lot of research before the subject was popular, and found out a lot of things like it's Japanese name and even things still unpublished. There's also plans to update it and discuss the cultural aspects as well as the technical, which is something else not often brought up.

    That basically is the origin of the PokeGods, yes. You can read the article here: http://www.angelfire.com/pokemon2/animerpg/rumors.html I have a lot of additions meant to add that go into details, but that's just the gist of the phenomenon.
    I've been working on various articles covering topics common in the fandom, such as whether or not there's too many legendaries, if Pokemon aren't creative anymore, etc. So far they're only hosted on a slug Freewebs account, but I have a friend that (if she weren't such a procrastinator) has a site in mind that would cover the scope of all these different topics. So far all it really does is discuss the PokeGods and MissingNo..
    Right. Well I did sort of imagine it as only covering the questions that have come up before, and presenting all the suggestions from the various regulars. There's at least three or four of us, I think, that work through those threads. The column would be less a "Send in a question" deal and more of a repository for the various dominant and logical theories.
    The science part isn't my concern, since it's stated in canon so that's what I'm going by... But he basically called you an idiot, so I figured you might want to back up your theory or something. (Speaking of which, if there was a Pokemon site of some sort, you should have a "column" that answers these questions)
    The first one was posted in the fanfiction Lounge, the second was a VM he made to a mod. The discussion is since over, and the mod infracted me because I "disrespected" the other members by arguing these canon points even when they frequently called me a liar and coward. So it's dropped.
    Some guy keeps arguing with me that Pokemon are energized rather than digitized, which completely disregards both the science and the fact that there's an NPC in the first few towns, if not the very first town, of every game that says it.
    Oh. xD That is funny. It's like you found a way to enable goats to live unaffected without heads. xD
    Then you revived a criminal goat that was put under the guillotine because the government was not pleased. xD
    sumthin cientificastical abt ciense. :>

    Eh, no, I just decided to start a Conversation Between Decapitated Goat and The Scientist. xD

    What is it that you find interesting? :o
