I like sunny days, the color green, and I drink five cups of coffee a day.

Ask me anything! one question at at time please

 

[Delta Crowned Sword]

I need some time to process the questions, as I am getting late and my breakfast is also finished; hence beginning with something simple which came to mind right now.




What difference did you noticed after your return here apart from new members, with the time when you were active in the past ?

 

[PoryKid575]

Related to the last question, how do you feel about PC moving to XF? Do you prefer it over the old vBulletin interface?

 

[Yellow Bommen]

[Meganium]

OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE

I need some time to process the questions, as I am getting late and my breakfast is also finished; hence beginning with something simple which came to mind right now.

The first thing I noticed when I came back was most of the sections were merged. Anime and technology were its own section before they were both merged with E&M and Off-Topic, respectively.

The second is the new forum format. I'm still getting used to it. D:

I miss VMs! The current system is so Facebook-y.

I also miss the ability to customize your profile. I remember doing soooo many profile designs using Photoshop.

mods please don't kill me

Who do you like better, Jiji or Kiki?

Jiji. OBVIOUSLY.

Do you like Star Wars?

I like the movies (and the side movies like Rogue One). I tried to get into the cartoons and the side series -- I'm very iffy. I tried to watch The Bad Batch with my fiance but I didn't understand or connect the dots to the main series. The Mandalorian tho...I enjoyed the series. I met Giancarlo Esposito (Moff Gideon) and got his autograph at a convention a couple years ago!

Favorite trilogy is the prequel.

I even own a lightsaber. fight me

How do you like your coffee?
What are some of your favorite foods?

Straight black with no sugar or creamer. They say those who drink their coffee straight black are psychos and I tend to agree with that statement.

Italian food. Love some pasta Alfredo and lasagna.

What made you wanna return here?

I have STORIES.

I fell off PC because I was busy with my career as a journalist. Felt that I was in my prime. I was also reeling in from a past relationship with a PC user who broke me (I don't want to get into that, but I'm glad to say that I've moved on completely).

With journalism, you have to deal with long hours, no holidays off, and toxic managers. I am no longer in that field anymore. Sadly, I left the job on my own accord. I was also dealing with mental issues associated with my career because you know -- you see so much fucked up shit that it led me to finally have the courage to seek therapy (I have an appointment today with her!).

My current job (six months in) allows me for more flexibility, which means more free time!

When I returned, I looked back at my past threads, posts, and blogs (when they existed) and it felt that I was reading someone else's content, not mine. Either I've moved on or I've changed. After playing Legends Arceus and Pokemon GO (and now playing Sword and Shield), I remembered PC. I contemplated for so long whether I wanted to return or not because I felt that I had completely abandoned my friends without even saying anything. So I said screw it and logged back in.

And I don't regret it! Pokemon is my life and I'll never let it go. The PokeCommunity has been my internet home.

Oh dang it, I'm a little sappy right now.

what's one feature from old pc that you wish were still around?

can we bring back VMs and profile customizations plz

guyz she said 1 question at a time :P

Jokes aside, how did you find this forum in the first place?

this is gonna be the most noob answer ever.

I wanted to create a Pokemon ROM hack game. Searched on Google "how to create a pokemon ROM hack," PC became the first result.
and yes, eventually i failed at making one

 

[Delta Crowned Sword]

I will add few questions now:


1. What aspect(s) you like in Pokémon Go ?


2.

I also miss the ability to customize your profile.

what did you meant by this ? And how it compares to Post Flair customization ?


3. And since you said that you found this place while you were searching for how to make ROM hacks, hence which ROM hack(s) you had played back then due to which you got the prompt to do that ?

 

[Meganium]

snip

I like the ability to explore new places and to get out of the house for a reason. but in this texas heat? heeeeeeellll no. lmao

SO PROFILE CUSTOMIZATIONS. We used to do that before the forum moved to Xenforo. I would add backgrounds, profile pictures, and customize with pretty colors. We even held a contest for several years (I didn't win tho).

Sadly, after searching through my archives I did not save any screenshots of all the designs I've done, but you know what. I realize they were cringe. :).

Unlike post flairs, profiles didn't use CSS, which is easy to create.

I THINK this is the hack I played from way back when. It was made in 2008. That was the only one. Then I was like "omg can I make one????"

 

[Yellow Bommen]

What are your favorite Ghibli movies?

 

[Meganium]

Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke, Ponyo, The Cat Returns, Howl's Moving Castle, My Neighbor Totoro

 

[_confused_piplup_]

You would never use a grass type move on a poor water type pokemon (Piplup for example...), right? RIGHT????

OKAY OKAY, I'll spare the piplup and all the other cute water pokemon. Unless you evolve, then my decision may change. :)

I like italian food, like pizza, pasta, etc. I also like Mexican food (not the Taco Bell kind), and the occasional burgers and fries.
