March 19th, 2015 will be marking my 4th PCversary. Dang I am so old hahahaha

As for what I plan to do in 2015, hopefully continue to welcome any new faces to the forums, keep staying active in the sections I currently post in, moderating my Fairy-type club and one that I think I should do, use my blog more actively.

Maybe take part in events as well, since I barely ever do when one's around.

Who's PC's Site Admin?: rukie my man

I saw the age thing and PC resolutions and figured I'd join so I could respond. I'm coming upon my three year anniversary on PC on January 21st so I think that's pretty cool. To think how much I've changed in three years and how much PC has influenced that is a really weird thought... but I like it and don't regret a second I've spent here. I'm resolving to convince others to not take muk so seriously, though, especially in regards to the forum or its members, and to be more open to new interactions, as well as discussion topics.

I think I have two big resolutions for 2015. The latter part of 2014 my activity went down a little due to life, and things are going okay now. So, I am hoping to fix that once the year comes around. I also really miss welcoming members, as well as roleplaying...so that's also something I want to work on. Another thing I want to do is to finally meet a really good friend of mine on here. Almost four years now and we still haven't met and we want 2015 to be THAT year. It's gonna be easier once I move to Texas in March.

oh i'm sorry make that three lmao

I know I'm fairly active with welcoming new guys, but I sorta want to go the extra mile in the new year and that's actively talking with them. Most of the time I only find myself saying hello in their introduction thread and the only times I end up talking are when they friend request me. Dragon and Sheep both inspired me to get active there and I want to do better in terms of interactivity.

Also, another one would be to get more active on the battle server again. My activity had been quite on-and-off there in the later half of the year and that must be fixed.

I'm only a little more than a year old as far as PC ages go. For 2015 I only have one goal on here, to be active the entire year. This year I was active for the first half, but became inactive in August and fizzled out entirely. I want that to change this year.

I made that goal as well for this year, but I highly doubt that I'll make that happen. xD Sure that would require me to go on PC every day for at least two hours but I also gotta make some room for life. lol

I'll try to be more active in PC in general. Since I'm planning to do a blog channel here on PC, I've got to be active :3 Also, I REALLY need to get back on the FCG horse and make new clubs and actually make them active :x

I will do this in feeble attempts to foster a connection with myself and this community.

Username: Arylett Charnoa

Reason for Joining the Club: I think I already said that above. But I am looking for more humans to add to my intense small roster of friends. This place is the best I could find and the most active. Also, boredom and taking breaks from projects. That too is a reason.

Who's PC's Site Admin?: Rukario.

That kind of sums me up right there! I joined ages ago, and then didn't do much of anything because I became discouraged. This place didn't feel *quite* right to me. Of course, after going on a long quest throughout the internet and leaving a place that I had been at for many years that I just became very dull about, this seemed to be my best bet. And now I'm back to give it another chance!

I will see if I can stay active throughout the year. It all depends on if I am encapsulated by this community. (Or maybe when I create that roleplay I'm planning.) So far, I feel very distant from everyone. Moreso this weirdo outsider who appears to say words and then disappears into the night. We'll see if we can change that. But if we don't, I won't be too sad. I don't expect myself not to feel like that for a while, as I tend to be naturally detached anyway.

Roleplaying is what kept me active here on PC! I've done a couple roleplays, and joined a bazillion of them. One of my resolutions this year is to get back into it, because it's what drew me to get active.

Can't wait to see what you have in store, Arylett!

Hm, what kept me active? Well when the GT started I tried to participate in as many events as possible, and actually completed most of them before I left for South America. I also had a trade shop and that kept me on here because I enjoyed getting new Pokemon it had kind of...business-y feel to it? I enjoyed doing that, and some days I would spend hours doing that. Also, the year of gaming kept me on here for a while because I always wanted to hit the top 3. Plus, my friends ofc and the fun atmosphere that this site provided. Nothing on here really kept me from coming on, I think it was just that the whole college things started, I started to make new friends, had new classes and was in a entirely different atmosphere. That changed me a bit and I didn't get on here, not because I didn't have time but because I just didn't want to. I've adapted though, and now I enjoy getting back on here again, and like I've said earlier, plan to stay.

Hypothetically, and maaaaaaaaaaybe something to think about in the future...on the topic of events: If you were a host of an event, what kind would it be and where would you host it?

Welcome to those who've joined; we're happy to have you!

So, we've got another Get-Together coming up sometime around June, which is five months away from now. Are we planning to take part in any events that are annually hosted? Would we find ourselves creating our own events? If we're planning to make and host a few, what sort of events are they going to be? How would we go about running them?

As for myself, I likely won't be hosting anything, unfortunately. Though, if others need help, I would be glad to lend some assistance. As for taking part, I haven't participated in many events at our last GT, so I'll put some effort into changing that this time around and try to take part in more.

I'm gonna stay on the sidelines for now. It's unknown whether I'm going to be active enough to host a few events for the GT this year. But I'm hoping so though! Last year I wasn't really able to host some events (well, I was part of the Battle Server GT there, I was able to help out a little~) so I'm unsure for this year. Better keep hoping for now.

If anything at all, I really want to bring back the Egg Swap.

I'm actually considering participating more actively this time around. The GTs are always very fun but for some reason I have next to no memory of the last few, probably because I didn't put enough effort into participation... so that has to change this time. So many awesome things I end up missing out on because laziness. :'(

I do some battling sometimes, and I play CAH. But other than that I'm not too terrible active in the whole GT thing. I'd thought about creating an event so that I can be a bit more active with it, but every time I try to think of what I would do my mind draws a blank.

Valentines day is nearing, guys. Sooo, let's talk about pairs. They're pretty popular here. You can have one, two, or even five. What's your opinion on them? Do you have a pair? Care to share who it is? :3

It's surprising as to how pairing is considered to be so important in PC; not much other forums seem to do this sort of stuff.

Currently, I'm paired to Shawn (Dragon). We've been paired with each other since August 2013, which is almost two years ago, and still are. Unless one of us wind up leaving the forum at some point, I'm unsure if we'll ever un-pair. Haha.

I'm a fan of this system here; it's a good way to show off one of our stronger online-based friendships.

I do find the pairs system is more cared about here than on other forums, and I can understand why because some act like they'd be real friends.

My first consistent pair on this forum was awolfsquared who I paired up with back in May 2013, although our pairing status is questionable since he doesn't get on as much as he used to, so if I do end up unpairing him I'd likely blame it on his lack of activity.

The second pair of mine, Starry Windy paired with me in September 2013 and I think he's the one who acts more like a true pair should, since we do bond well with each other a lot and that's probably why he's stuck with me so long.

I love the pairing system, like wow.

Even though I'm like the Queen of Shipping, and I'm pretty good with who should be paired to who, my ships are well, not great :P

My first one was with Mid. Then with Twi, then with Pachy, but the latter two are gone, and me and Mid just forgot we even paired up lel

My longtime pair is Buoysel, and we've been pairs for almost four years..March 30th is our pairaversary. Never thought we'd come this far! But to be quite honest, we surely do have a strong friendship. <3 Then I got paired with Kanzler a year ago. We still keep in touch, he's also the greatest ever. :D

skyluigi2 and I paired up in 2013 after just saying hi to each other randomly. We still talk whenever we can, and I'm really trying my best to get him to be on PC more often! My other pair is Nolafus, and we paired in late March last year; he and I have a love for the same evolution line, so that's how we paired up.

Reason for Joining the Club: Though I've only been a member of PC for a little over a month, this wonderful community has quickly risen to be my favorite site to visit. I say this in all honesty... I spend about 90 percent of my time on the internet here! Not only is there lots to talk about Pokemon, but various Fan Clubs meet all my other interests, too. PokeCommunity has been my one-stop site for all my online entertainment and socializing needs. I've been a member of various forums over the years, but never have I felt so involved and a part of community, y'know? This site is just really cool and I am definitely a fan.

If you had a chance to rewind time in PC's history, where would you go? It would be interesting to see the site layout and userbase vibe of PokeCommunity when it was first created.

Oh, and about the discussion on pairs... Being a newbie, I am not paired to anyone yet. I suppose I have a about 3 people on my friends list whom I chit chat with pretty often. Does pairing with someone reinforce a friendship? Oh veteran members of PC, tell me more about your experience with pairs~ :)

Basically pairing with someone here is basically...showing off your friendship with someone you are close with on PC. It doesn't have to be a relationship kind of thing, because me & Kanzler are more of a friendship kind of pairing and we're not together. We're just really close to each other as friends.

I wrote a blog about pairings, might be worth of a read to learn more!
