Ha, noob days? I'm still living them!

I was only 18 when I joined, and let's face it I got off to the worst start a member ever had to go through. I was actually kicked out for two weeks for just being a very awful member, and also constant rule-breaking. I'm still shocked how I managed to survive all that, because my first couple of years saw me getting scared by a lot of staff members (especially one very scary smod from 2012-2013, he was like slapping me for the weirdest things) but these days the intimidation from staff isn't as scary.

I asked to be a ROM hacking mod :33

I find this funny considering you're now a mod yourself, but for sections other than ROM Hacking. But you were a ROM Hacking mentor in TWL's Adoption Center a few years back, so that was close enough.

Well i was told a lot of times that you can get a skateboard on pkmn crystal though i don't think this is exactly true.

This is how i was told

1st got to the place in mt silver where you vs ash/red
2nd battle and defeat red
3rd (this is where i started thinking it was fake) tony hawks will come up to you
4th he will say he wants to trade ur bike for a skateboard
5th if you refuse he will take it anyway and leave you with the skateboard/or leave u with nothing

It's false. A skateboard was seen in Beta Screenshots of G/S, but was taken out of the final version. That's it. And stop making so many threads :/

I can make as many threads as i want to and anyway you have more threads than me

That's why ;/

I'm sooooo sorry you had to put up with this 7 years ago Dunsparce.

 

[esperance]

sometimes i wonder if i truly outgrew those days

at least i'm not as bad as 13 year old me

 

[Starry Windy]

I was inexperienced when it was on my first year in PC, I still remember that I make similar threads but on different sections back then (even though that time I have no idea there was a similar one), so I asked the mod to lock my thread after I realized that. At least today I'm a bit better, but I'm still learning, for sure.

On this forum? No, I joined when I was 23

On other forums? For sure! Some I was on when I was a teenager and well, I was a brat xD It was mostly I had an entitled attitude. I don't care much about grammar or spelling even these days.

Still not a ROM hacking mod though </3 ;)

I kid I secretly mod everywhere

 

[Nah]

Everyone had their noob days on the internet. My noob days were spent elsewhere and not so much on PC though. I'm still a dumbass though

I asked to be a ROM hacking mod :33

and no one gave you the "I asked to be a mod" emblem?

I will go fix that

 

[Kaiyu]

I haven't really had any noob days here at PC. On another Pokémon forum I joined way back in 2003 I was making tons of mistakes. Mostly were grammar ones. I was getting one negative comment after another for that. I couldn't help it since my English wasn't all that great. But after 11 years I said goodbye to that forum. I don't think that matters here right?

 

[Legobricks]

I've certainly been younger, but I doubt I'd call them noob days. It's worth bearing in mind that the average age on TPC has increased over the years, so the standards of the past were understandably lower.

I asked to be a ROM hacking mod :33

I think I did too. I was like 11.
And the person I asked was a staff member who already disliked me. I'm not really sure what I was thinking.

 

[Hikamaru]

This reminds me that my first emblem earned here was "I asked to be a mod". I often aspired into wanting to become staff, but these days I have now given up on that dream because as of late I have been constantly knowing that I just don't have the capability to work well in a staff role, so even if such a spot was offered I'd more likely turn it down than accept it.

 

[Auticorn]

Hell yeah, I had them. Just ask Hiroshi Sotomura. He'll tell you how much of a pain in the ass I was to them back then. :P I've improved a lot since then though. I'm more aware of my surroundings. I think one of the most embarrassing things I've ever done was consider most of the staff as uncles. I don't even know WHAT I was thinking.

To be honest, I've blocked out most of that stuff. I've used it as a lesson to remind me how much I have improved. I've been here since 2004. I was about sixteen when I first joined PC, if not younger.

Js, this was a thing, but I wasn't a noob. IT COUNTS, THOUGH...

 

[Salzorrah]

Most of them are in ROM Hacking or Pokemon Trivia... And I don't even go there anymore o-o

 

[Aquacorde]
