Nah

Grats on Gabite in FTE. Also how's FAQ coming along? Still coming along slowly I take it?

cutes!

When liberals resort to belittling and closed minded assumptions cause it's how they use their tactics, you'd expect me to come back in a more aggressive manner, but it's not aggressive.. Then again this sites liberal dominant so if one liberal finds themselves cornered they feel it's their duty to jump in and start attacking, cause it's easier to target ones beliefs if there's numerous targeting.. The world isn't sunshine and rainbows where everybody's in a bubble protected from being offended.. That's my biggest problem with some on here. There's some on here that simply will not even accept evidence if it's right in front of them cause it's against what they believe or was told. Idk, I just find lots are closed minded on here, sticking to what they were told and that will fuck them up later in life.

I don't intend to target anyone in particular but some people, it's just hard. Not talking about you cause a lot of the stuff you say does make sense.. But there's some people on here that are lost and can't tell up from down east from west, or whats in front or behind them without something telling them what's there. I've gotten to the point where I add humor to my posts to reduce the targeting cause at this point what I say on these topics about the system and whatnot, is simply what the fuck is actually going on and it's hard to not see it. Idk. I just feel there's more than meets the eye than what's going on. I don't understand why people attack me when I'm trying to enlighten the truth in deceit. I just feel, lots assume things about me, that aren't true. I'm actually literally like a therapist outside my work and stuff. I care for others, but others don't perceive that's how I am. I'm basically like a Shaman. Don't know the term, look it up.

Yes lol. Just stated "you" cause you're in a position of authority like the rest. Should have made that more clearer, that's on me.

Not gonna dig up, but I've saw moderators team up on helpless members countless times. Anyone in power is always fighting the urge to lose control of their power and abuse it. This is how those in power became so powerful. I was really using it as a metaphor more resembling that power can put fear into those below them is all and that I am not afraid to question authority, as I shouldn't. Make sense? Anyone in power bends the rules a bit. Not gonna discuss too much cause I could find countless analogies to real power.. Like cops speeding.. Just little things like that. Nothing too concerning. All is good.

Will I think so! Our pokecommunity family wouldn't be the same without you.

I took a peek at your favorite Pokemon, it is pretty awesome list. Have you got a fav region movie or episode?

Awww thanks, I try to be good. But deep inside me well there is a mischievous Jigglypuff that isn't so good ^_^

Hi Nah! I justed wanted to say that I really enjoy your posts. They are so well-informed and objectve on so many different diverse topics all over the forum. You and Gimme Pie really offer some fascinating topics in deep discussion, and always civil. I hope we can be friends. I noticed our birthdays are like a day apart so we may have a lot in common :)

-Sam

lowkey love how it's been nearly exactly two years since we VMd one another lmfao

Why did you delete hakkanend's message?

Eh was just a thought. Figure you might as well stay where you are for the rest of the battle and just state so in Round 9 so Lycan knows. Your only move is to use Take Down which is useless against Ghosts and the two Carnivines should fall soon. You're also a sitting duck against Sliggoo since its another Dragon so yeah you might as well put down a marsh chair, grab some popcorn and some cookies and watch as a spectator.

Round 8 is finally live. One more use of Gravelerock left so I'm thinking that you move to J8(forget specifically which spot), to get in range of Carnivine-A. WooWoo will deal with Litwick-A so let's see if you can harm the Grass Type a bit so we can take it down in Round 9. All you have left is Take Down once you exhaust your items so maybe you can act as a body shield Round 9 onward lol.

Round 7 is up. Pretty limited in what you can do but Inkay happens to be in range of your item from I7. Willing to give it another go? Once Inkay falls, you won't be doing much for the rest of the battle.

Any update regarding the FAQ or has their been no progress since I made a post about it earlier this month?

That'll get annoying really fast if someone has to do that every time. I don't ever log out, but whenever there's a premium forum, my skin changes to it and my settings never change.

My issues were the very hard to use quote feature (hence why I didn't quote you, I couldn't figure out how) and I hate the info change per post.

Instead of seeing something useful like "Joined Jun 2009" or something, you get "Been here for 8 years"... which is so vague, it's not even worth mentioning.

I also dislike the removal of natures per post as well. I recall browsing this forum way before I joined it for reasons long forgot, but I always loved seeing what natures each post would have, and it even made me wonder what I would choose as my own.

Even the dark skin choice of it still has way too much white, and white is literally the worst on forums. It just makes your eyes bleed, for the most part.

Really, the only things I do like are the bigger repository of notifications (they don't vanish after you click them too) and mildly, just the addition of flairs. But the latter is so mild, it's not that important.

So... I just feel it's a step backwards.

But this forum is so customizable, that's fine if you want to use it; but I'd prefer it mostly if it isn't made mandatory. It needs A LOT of work for me to accept that.

Thanks for the update! :) I'm not too invested personally, just something I picked up and thought I should bring up

I've already told several admins and all that of my concerns. And literally every single one of them was written off as being not needed.

So really, the one thing I can recommend now is just not forcing it on everyone.

It's acting up for me, in the fact it won't even stay on the dark setting and always defaults back to the light/dark mix. But that's the least of its problems.

Round 5 up and I was thinking that you'd swing around Lickitung and trap Skorupi with your last Sand Tomb. By moving you'd allow Priscilla to move to your spot so she can Spark(or Nuzzle) Lickitung. That way I can move to H5 or her present spot to remove Sceptile from play and then Alex can move to where Sceptile once was and attack Lickitung with Quick Attack. All these moves are predicated on you moving first :D

Forgot if you made your move for Round 4. Mags or Priscilla have a decision to make while your move is kind of set in stone as I see it. If Priscilla opts to finish off Skarmory(while losing her Pickup ability in the process), then Mags will be launching a Sonicboom at Sceptile wherein you'd move to I7 and finish Sceptile off with your last Dragon Rage. If Priscilla doesn't want to lose her ability, then she'd move to H5 and launch a Quick Attack at Sceptile that hopefully does 15 or so Damage. Then Mags moves to H4 and finishes Skarmory off with Sonicboom.

Oh and we may have a new recruit joining us but we shall see if she signs up.

Haha, "not all of us". Well, I can guess the one who probably does. And it's pretty mutual.

I just felt overwhelmed, unwelcome and really at the whims of what I considered cherry-picking issues to GET me banned. I got another infraction for almost nothing, I thought, so I was afraid to post out of fear of literally *anything* being misconstrued to really tie the knot.

I needed a break in any case, but I originally wasn't even going to return at all until at least one of the infractions finally did expire; which was October 29. And I honestly thought I would be banned inbetween there too, literally for not even posting or being here.

And the break was good; but my wonderful girlfriend always knows how to relax me and get me into a better mood about approaching these issues.
I had a bit of a trial with her in that time as well, and after that, I found a newfound confidence to come back, knowing I wouldn't be the same and hopefully the same kind of trouble wouldn't occur.

I mean, I'm not going to just declaw myself or go docile; we should all be allowed to voice our opinions, even if they're not popular; but I think now I can do it with more finesse. Because text is just that, it can be very easy to misconstrue what we write as something else entirely.
I needed to work on that anyway, so I came back.

I have talked with some admins too in the meantime and come to an understanding (eventually) with them as well, but I know some of them probably dislike me, along with some mods. But hey, that's why there are more than just 2 of them.
Still, I sure wish being able to ignore some people you just don't like (mod or admin alike) would sure help... but I guess that's just a test of mettle to show that you can take it; that I can take it and still be civil.
