IMPORTANT: Server transition & new ownership

[Sheep]

Hi everyone, and welcome back to the forum! It has been a stressful week for the staff, especially our administrators and developers that worked tirelessly to get PokéCommunity back up online. Most things should be in working order but if you spot an issue, please feel free to let us know. Thank you again for your patience throughout this server transition.

With that said, now that the site is back online, I'd like to formally announce that the site is under new ownership! Those of you who were on our Discord channel (or follow our social media platforms) may have already seen our message in #announcements, but I (Sheep) am the new owner of PokéCommunity! As a longtime member of the forum and staff of six years and counting, the website has and will continue to be an important part of my life and, as such, I'm especially thrilled to have the opportunity to shape and grow the site in ways that may not have been possible before.

The staff team will not be changing - we will continue to lead in the same way. The community itself will remain as we know and love. However, there will now be many more opportunities for our growth than ever before, as we are no longer under the ownership of a corporation that does not understand the community's wants and needs. We are eager to push PC to new heights, especially now that we have free rein to shape the site to the community's benefit.

Getting to this point could not have been possible without the support of the staff and, of course, you, the members that make the website what it is.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support and I hope you'll stick with us throughout this new journey forward. ️❤

I, for one, welcome our new overlord

For those of us under the hood, this year has been a hellscape for PC, but I'm truly glad to be ending on a high note. Community is the most important word in our forum name.
