What Brought You Here?

I came here lookimg at ROM hacks here about a year before I joined and wanted to make one of my own. After discovering Pokémon Essentials (before I signed up) which has fewer limits than ROM hacking I gave up on hacking completely. As for the game itself I never even came up with a name for it and only got around to coming up with new Pokémon designs.
 
I joined to ask a question about Pokemon Essentials, and while i was there looked and played a few other fanmade games. Then i vanished for 1 and a half years.

Then i returned cause i had nothing to do, and because of how many friends i made and the GT11, i can't say i regret it.
 
Arrived to PC originally in 2006 for Shiny Gold. All I wanted to mess around with from 2006-2008 were ROM hacks and even had a hard time remembering to reply/update my art gallery thread back then. :< Because for whatever reason I felt the need to post one and then neglect it lol.

Only made about 40 posts from 2006 to 2008 and then quit entirely for a few years. Decided to give this place another shot under a new name come 2011 since the previous Pokemon forum I was on was getting on my nerves, plus PokeCommunity had lovely themes and was all-around pleasing to be on. Now I can't ever quit!
 
Joined PC after trying some other forums to create and publish sprite comics. Back in the good ol' days, I was one of the more popular comic artists along with Matt Silver and Decepticon. I wouldn't say I was the best or even good, but at that time, I felt like I was making beautiful art. I had some pretty popular threads and comics and eventually gave it up. I spent my first year on PC in the Pixel Art area. I don't think I even knew the forums had areas besides Pixel Art. I made all my original friends on PC there and once the phase of sprite comics ended, I branched out. :)
 
I searched for Pokemon forums and this was first choice. I recently got back into the game so what better than to engage discussions in a forum.
 
I was brought here by an old friend of mine. I had a love for both digimon and pokemon but mostly digimon lol. I had a rough past here, but I've realized how much this place means to me, despite all of those bad memories. I love it here. <3
 
I heard this forum's name being tossed around by a few people I knew, I came to check it out, I dragged Matt here kicking and screaming (actually he was probably the only person that didn't kick or scream) and here we are today.
 
I originally joined in November 2006 shortly after Diamond and Pearl released in Japan. I quickly lost interest, though. D&P was later available for me in April, but I didn't have the greatest trade experiences on Serebii. I needed a new hangout.

So, I joined Pokecommunity in May 2007 and have been here, especially in trade, ever since.
 
I originally joined to talk about X and Y, as the games had recently come out and there were so many new things to discuss, but really I only started posting when I needed a place to showcase my new project.
 
The bus.

I came from a different forum where I was having multiple issues with the members, so I decided to seek refuge here, considering another forum that i've been on wasn't very active.
 
While I was on vacation in Colorado, I was watching Drayano's Poison Monotype videos again from back in the spring. I saw a video in the Related Videos section that said "Ultimate Poison Monotype Challenge: VS Champion Iris" and saw it. There were a few other Ultimate Monotype videos from that same user, and I found out that they were done on the Ultimate Monotype thread here on this site. So I clicked my way over there, and after I was home from vacation, made my way into the challenger's cove.

I may have found out about this site elsewhere, but it wasn't until the above that I really found my way here.
 
I wanted to have friends who shared my love of Pokemon, but also because I was power abused by mods at my previous forum and I wanted to escape from that nightmare of a forum. So that's how I ended up here.
 
Joined to find other Pokemon fans around my age to chat with and also contribute to the community. It also looked pretty cool and well maintained so I thought I give it a try.
 
I came here for just talking about Pokemon, but stayed because I discovered the ROM Hacks. I knew nothing about them until I joined. My friend, Antemortem, is how I found the website.
