Not that it won't come back anytime soon I would think |
I wonder how DCC will do in the long run if it comes back. A *long* time ago we needed one monthly, and then it decreased to seasonal later... with so many things that serve the same purpose to just chat with one another online, do you think DCC will last after the initial rush of activity due to nostalgia fuel?

"Popular" it may be int he past, but whenever you make a post and 10 new posts would've flew by, you couldn't have any meaningful discussions at all. It always degenerated into weather talks, and a bunch of posts all directed to different posts in the past. It was pretty hectic.
There's a charm to some slightly longer posts that take at least a minute until there is a response ^_^ |
That was part of the fun, tbqh, having to keep up with all the simultaneous conversations.

One thing that makes me feel old, and this forum, is about the pokemon anime. Over a decade ago back in 2005/2006 there were people who still honestly believed Misty would return to the show, or that the writers would reunite the original trio, etc. There was this huge Misty club that went on for like a decade from 2004-2011 before it got closed, haha.
Its kind of ironic how even 13 years later, thinking about all those people crying over Misty a decade ago and how they never got what they wanted. The writers really did get rid of her character permanently way back in 2002, so everyone who spent a decade whining about it never got the satisfaction of seeing her return. I'm indifferent so I don't care much, but it almost feels like those people were in vain and watching Misty fade away into oblivion in the anime means they wasted a decade of their lives for nothing. Its pretty funny when you stop to realize how long ago that was now. |

As others have mentioned, there was more hostility and exclusivity. At the same time it was a pretty magical time period from 2006-2008 where many of the members who were around during that time are still remembered today by those of us who have returned/those that never left. I would say the forums have gotten a lot nicer and there are a lot more tools for new users to get situated to the forums. But it was fun back then I'll admit.

The early days for me (2006 was when I got really into it) was all about Mixed Community Groups. All of my early friends (two of which I still talk to now) were in these clubs. The altaria and typhlosion club was the most random pairing of Pokémon but we loved it. There was a plusle and minun club that kept on getting yelled at by Kylie-Chan at the time no clue what her username is here. There was a dude who was super dodgy and I think he got banned but that was in the gold silver crystal club. He was trying to get members to play his rom hack. Then we had a club for every single type and it didn't really achieve anything. The cool club back in the day was the dragonair or Arcanine clubs iirc? You wanted to look good in those clubs because the cool people joined them. One of our own joined the DCC and we thought he was evil. Until two of us went there and eventually got told to stop posting so much. :') good old early days.
I have screens hots of PC from 2007-2010 if anyone wants to see them. |

Who remembers when people got banned, it said "Booted Out - Don't be like me". That was awesome. |
