I have the filter turned off because I'm a rebel :p

I’ve taken plenty of hiatuses on PC to be honest. I'm also not really sure what gets me to come back here. Perhaps, it’s because I want to see how long I can do so. I’ve been here for 10+ years now as well, and I’ve seen this place grow into what you guys see today.

I literally only stay here for the idol general chat thread.
|
I keep coming on and off due to waning interest in community itself, and I come back because aimless posting is fun sometimes. I also love being able to talk to other Pokemon fans mainly, but sometimes it's like a nightmare trying to have a decent discussion
yknow life is also an issue, got that chronic illness & university combo like a bunch of others here |
what make me keep coming back is the community here
|
for those who are actively on pc, what keeps you coming back onto the site everyday? what are some of the things you do on pc? anything else?
i would consider myself active, much more active than i was before. i don't visit every single day but i try to visit when i can. i mostly post in the off topic board and discussions/debates. bonus questions for those who've been active for 3+ years: -have you ever taken a hiatus on pc? why/why not? i did take a hiatus on pc technically. i think i was inactive for like 5 or 6 years, until i refound this site and started posting more actively and stuff. before then i was just a lurker, and just posted a lot of fan fic. -what do you usually do on pc? i usually go on the discord server and post in the off topic section or discussions/debates. -any highlights/growth from being on pc? i'd like to think i have made some friends here? and being on here has sort of opened up my eyes in some stuff i used to think. |
Hardly a regular anymore, but I come back every couple of week to months. Sometimes more often if I'm not doing anything. Reason? Eh, PC's been a big part of my life for almost a decade now. I fell out of love with this website in the last few years, but I still like it enough to check out how things are. As for hiatuses, I've taken a few yup. Don't really remember, but I know I stepped away from PC when Other Chat's quality plummeted. It happened around when I stopped being a moderator I guess, I really can't tell you when at this point. Don't get me wrong, it's still fun to post here, but it's just not the same as it once was, to me.
Well, okay, let me backtrack. It's unfair to just say PC's draw factor vanished, cause it didnt. I also just got busy and began to have a real fun and busy life outside. So that's definitely an important factor. Heck, might be why I dont look at this site the same as I once did. Nowadays, I just stalk. Post occasionally. And yeah, there were loads of highlights. I grew up with PC. Made loads of friends here (whom seem to have either left or are busy). That being said, I've met a few PC members from here in real life (Morkula, PY, Nolafus, more). I was a part of a few Get-Togehters, a few Skype calls. I was a moderator for something like a year and a half, two stints. Second stint was garbage, cause I asked for my position and got it, and then vanished. I do regret that, definitely ruined my reputation and painted me in a negative light, but there really isn't much I can do about that. Something really random that was worth mentioning was a period where I had changed my username and I had several people asking me if I was some asshole smod from way back in the day. Irrelevant, but I thought that was funny. I do hope I find the time and interest return one day. I posted once when I was younger that PC was my home and that I would never ever leave. I was young and naive, but I do believe now, being much older and wiser, that this website is helped me be who I am today. And I will come back to visit. dipz ps, this place will always be chit chat café to me. other chat just sounds so dull |
BRING BACK CHIT CHAT CAFÉ <3
|
Probably the fact that I'm merciful enough to continue returning after seeing the horrors I've seen here
|
Do I count as a regular?
What keeps me coming back? I love Pokémon, I like to talk about it at any given moment tbh. Now I know there 1000 other Pokémon forums that I could go to to talk about that, but I do happen to like the interface of this forum a lot more than some others I've seen - that's definitely an important thing that kept me here. The other reason I keep checking the forums every day is because I'm active on the Discord server so I usually check the two places out simoultaneously. But maybe I'll jump forums after having written this. |
Sadly I am not as active as before. I won't say I lost an interest in Pokemon but... Kinda? SuMo and UsUm don't attract me that much. Also, some of my PC friends aren't here anymore sooooo...
-have you ever taken a hiatus on pc? why/why not? --> Not really a hiatus, but I've spent some time without coming on PC. It was just not a priority. -what do you usually do on pc? -> forumg ames, and answer in the topics I like. -any highlights/growth from being on pc? --> I did met some amazing person! Some who aren't on PC anymore are still talking to me at other places so yay friends! |
