June Community Thread!

The May Community thread has been moved here.

If you're new here then don't be shy! The community thread is the place to come and chat with fellow members of the site who share a common interest with you. Talk about whatever you want, whether it's GPX related or something going on in your personal life, just be sure to read the rules first before posting. There's always someone on the forums to read and respond to your posts, so chat away and maybe you'll meet some great people!

Rules

• Regular forum rules still apply here. Basically don't double post. Don't ask for clicks every time you fill your party. Unless it gets out of hand*, I'm okay with you linking to an exploration Pokemon who needs a specific berry.
  
  *out of hand meaning I don't want to see Pokémon being linked just for leveling or if they need drinks for happiness. These kinds of interactions can be handled just fine by being in your parties and signatures.
  
  
• Do not post your shinies here, there's a shiny thread for that. Discussing them is OK though! Just make sure you add content to your post.
  
  
• Make sure your post contains worthwhile content. If you're posting an exploration Pokémon to be fed berries then be sure to add other content to your post. Same with discussing shinies. Find people to reply to or start a discussion yourself! Your post must, with the shiny portion and berry feeding hypothetically removed*, not read as if you're talking to yourself. To clarify, your post should not be an out-loud thought to yourself, and should contain more general discussion than just information on your current shiny luck.
  
  *if you were to read your post, skipping over any mention of shinies, the post should still sound like a good post.
  
  If any posts are found breaking this rule then they will be instantly deleted and handed a 10% warn.
  
  
• Do not post your GPX+ gear grinders in this thread either. There's also a thread for that. This is mostly for raging at staff or site events that you don't like.
  
  

  
  Okay:
  Ugh, snow again! D;
  Dragon type for the Poke Hunt again??? ):
  
  An off-handed comment that is in no way malicious like this is fine. You can always add an emoticon to help add to the not serious effect, but that it is only a small annoyance.
  
  Not okay:
  Ugh, snow again! Why can't staff do something to change this!?
  Dragon type for the Poke Hunt again??? This is stupid, someone NEEDS to change this or do something about it.
  Where is the - New Feature - that was suppose to happen? They said it was going to be a month ago, so where is it!?
  
  This is more ragey and is trying to throw shade at the site and staff. Either examples can be thrown in the gear grinder thread just fine, but this kind of anger is what I want to avoid in this thread. I hoped this helped explain.. (:
  

  
  
• Do not litter your post with swear words.
  
  
• Memes and Gifs are allowed, but don't overuse them. If the thread turns into nothing but meme and gif replies, I'll give everyone a 10% warn that was involved because it's just plain out spam! Make sure you put these in a spoiler tag.
  
  
• No quote pyramids! Be sure to cut out everything that was before what you're replying to. They can get long and make a page annoying to scroll through, so be considerate to your fellow members!
  
  
• A post must be AT LEAST one sentence long. If you’re saying hi or bye to someone be sure to add something more to your post.
  
  
• If you'd like to advertise something, then be sure you put it in your signature. Youtube, Deviantart (No smut), Fanfication (No smut), Twitch, adoptable sites, your own minecraft servers are all fine. If you Live stream give a heads up that you're live, but be sure to add content. Don't just link dump. Send a PM if you have any questions about anything else!

Monthly Raffle

Nominations are now gone, and I'm using post count to determine how many entries you have into the raffle. The first 19 posts you have will count as one entry, and every ten after that will count as an extra. Think of it as the first number of your post count is how many entries you have. To see what your post count is, click on the number of replies any certain thread has. Nothing else on the site will influence the amount of entries you receive, so if you'd like a chance to win, then post here frequently!

The raffle is what chooses who gets to choose what's in next month's egg distribution. There are no other site advantages other than that, and even then the whole site gets a chance at that Pokémon that you chose!

As for the news about UK leaving the EU... I'm waiting 'till the dust clears to see what the effects are.
From what I understood, there'll be a period with negotiations and procedures and I'll be listening in on what will be happening.
I don't think the Netherlands are really going to be having a referendum as well, that's just one voice calling out for it. And if there's a referendum about it, I seriously doubt we'll be voting 'leave'. As for the UK, I hope things work out for them as well as for the rest of Europe.

Hope everyone's enjoying their weekend?

Same here. I really hope my overseas friends will be fine ^^;

My weekend is going ok I guess...
Working on converting a midi atm. It's a pain in the butt.

Y'know in honor of Korosensei's death...

-------------------------------------------

Oooh, Pokemon news! Excited about that.
There also seems to be news next month about a Sonic game coming out next year. Interested about what that could be. *hopes it'll be better than Sonic Lost World*

Welp, my laptop charger has officially stopped working.
We ordered a new one last night, and I hope it'll get here in the next few days.

Oh, I remember seeing some posts on Tumblr about the EU thing.
One said that EU had 1 GB of free storage now.
Another said that if you randomly slap someone in GB then there's a 52% chance that they'd deserve it.
Then another one said that it really showed how much they messed up that people from a country that are about to elect Donald Trump as their president are calling them stupid.

And the decision was partly based on reducing immigration? I remember my American Government teacher saying that preventing immigration (including illegal immigration) would most certainly cause the economy to plummet - so if that is was a factor in the vote, then it definitely was a terrible decision.

I'm interested as well. I hope it will be a good one xD

I got an email from my dad about the replaceable HDD and apparently it's been shipped.
I hope it'll still work by the time it arrives here.

Ooh I saw that post as well XDDDD I saw it reposted onto fb and thought it was pretty funny.
Speaking of fb, I saw someone who claimed to be from UK post about how foreigners should be denied healthcare even if they (want to) pay for it, which I think is a liiiiil bit too much. But ehh for others I just hope everything will go ok and they won't regret it.
Yeah immigration makes the world go round, whether they wanna admit(like) it or not.

Absolutely agree with you on that last one, 100%.

On a different note, guess who is FINALLY done with Death of the World and just got their first Arceus egg? Meeeeee!! *blows party noisemaker and throws confetti*

Thank you to everyone who saw me through Task 11 and also fed my Dedenne. You have my undying love.

Congrats, dude! I should probably get around to doing enough Shiny Hunts to get my Arceus. I'm probably the only one at this point from 2009 that visits regularly that still doesn't have one.

On another note, why do I only ever get the Youngster visiting me? I think I've gotten a summoning item ONCE from the header events in my near 7 years here.
