If you could describe PC in one word, what would it be?
 
Yes, imagine someone asked you to describe it in only one word. Which one word would you choose? Also, four words plz - aka describe WHY you chose the word.

I pick lazy. Though that's overall.

I would describle this forum in one word and that will be...

Determination

Because I noticed this forum is determined to be the best Pokemon forum in the whole internet world. Everyone is working hard to get to that point. What I am saying is that no one is giving up to make this forum the best place to be.

Limey-chan May 10th, 2010 8:40 AM

Unpremeditated or spontaneous.

Either one sums the place up pretty nicely.

I think this describes the demograph of members here to a tee.

Well that was mighty redundant of me; but yeah, call a spade a spade an' all...

ANARCHit3cht May 10th, 2010 2:10 PM

^ Best answer.

I would have to say... Simple. It isn't all too complicated. So... yeah.

EmeraldSerenade May 10th, 2010 2:12 PM

xD I love it.

I would say Dramatic. I'm rather indifferent to the whole website, but other members are a bit dramatic about certain things involving the forum which sometimes confuses me because I just view it as your every day forum. I miss where drama and Pokemon forum come together.

mikey May 10th, 2010 2:38 PM

I'd also describe it as addicting. Because well, it is xD

Jolene May 10th, 2010 3:18 PM

Biased.

I just got an infraction for making a midly negative comment about Misty from the Pokemon anime, and yet there is another poster who gets away with saying that all of the other girl characters in Pokemon are practically scum and that Misty is some kind of god figure. The moderator tried to justify the infaction by saying that I was trying to get a rise out of this particular poster, but in fact I was being a good girl. Honest Indian.

I think that this particular moderator was reading my post from his darkened basement, surrounded by Misty dolls and photos of Misty cosplayers. Upon reading my mild criticism of Misty's character, he started to breathe heavily, and then let out a single uninterrupted scream that lasted for two minutes whilst foam dripped from his mouth. He then grunted a single "No" and pressed the "Give innocent PC user an infraction for badmouthing my fictional lover" button on his computer keyboard, for which he personally created a shortcut.

So yes, biased.

Adequate

Haters gonna hate, but this place is at least somewhat good if only for introducing me to some great people.

カゲボウズ May 10th, 2010 3:54 PM

Um...

Seriously, that's how I sum PC up.

Rokusasu May 10th, 2010 4:09 PM

Fickle.

Or maybe that's just me. >:

Nick May 10th, 2010 6:45 PM

Minuscule.

Though the people I've met and come to know are wonderful, for the most part, and will remain in contact with hopefully for as long as we remain friends, I find that PC itself is a minuscule part of my life. Even though I'm on here for a majority of my day while I'm home and have nothing to do, I find that a lot of the things I used to take seriously just aren't as serious as I made them out to be. The same opinion of that goes with PC in general.

A lot of people look at PC as this life-altering experience. And while it's helped me to meet people who mean so much to me (whom I would have probably never met had I not joined), I find that PC itself just isn't all that important. The people are. The first thing that comes to mind, unfortunately, when I think of PC is not the people I met; those people are the first things I think of when I think of the word friend, or internet, or online; when I think of PC I think of a forum. Minuscule in the big picture. Minuscule in life.

But the people... life-altering and forever.

RULES 1 AND 2 STATE YOU MUST NOT SPEAK OF THE BOARD-THAT-MUST-NOT-BE-NAMED >:U



Anyways,

I would say 'Drama'. This place is full of lots of drama sometimes. ;D

.Gamer May 10th, 2010 6:59 PM

Outclassed.

Smogon has more fun stuff; PE2K have mods that don't infract; Serebii-actually, this place is better than Serebii.

But its pretty cool. I have a blog.

BHwolfgang May 10th, 2010 7:00 PM

kinky

Trust me, you'll understand one day. ;)

Melody May 10th, 2010 8:40 PM

Hmm...If I had to choose one word it'd have to be...

Welcoming

Because no matter how much we all like to nom on newbies tender flesh, we're always quite a nice bunch about it, and we try to make sure even the most maladjusted has time to learn the ropes and be properly welcomed into the fold. No matter how many elitist jerks may be floating around PC, there are always the kind and awesome people who always vastly outnumber the jerks by 46635635634365 to 1. XD

With that being said, I cannot find a forum more welcoming than PC online. Ever. I've tried and failed so many times that it's not even funny. :<

Åzurε May 10th, 2010 8:49 PM

Mellow*

*Excepting certain people/topics
What can I say? It's how I see it. The place is good for laughs occasionally, but then there are people who take things too seriously, or make a show of their radical opinions and detached online persona. But it's a vocal minority that pops up in the parts of the forum I visit. Mainly, mellow.

btw, I doubt you're helping your case, Jolene...

Eternal Nightmare May 10th, 2010 9:09 PM

Pogymonz

Uh...OK I suppose...

What can I say...It gets dry around here from time to time and not to mention some drama flys around from time to time. I guess the only reason I've stayed around so long is (sometimes) interesting topics, I'm bored and need somewhere to chill, and my friends are the main reason. They are so awesome and I don't know what id do without them on this site. PC isnt a life altering experience like being on a stranded island, but some of the people here are <3.

Basically, PC is a cool site but it isn't that great.
