QUOTE(Flamer @ Feb 21 2009, 11:27 AM)  No offence but I really don't think this will work. The chance of the person actually getting the egg is so small, and it will just devalue the so called rare Pokemon. I've seen so many Mudkips around the place you'd think they where common. I'm not a big fan of the shelter becuase of this, and I'm certainly not a fan of this idea. Helping people out by letting them know the description of a rare egg is fine. It doesn't devalue them but still helps the person since they'll know what to look out for. But this is just silly. Making rare Pokemon for everyone just defeats the point of them being rare. Yes, and the best part is that I've already said everything that you just said. --------------------  GPXPlus crap. I do not click back, but honestly, you shouldn't need to click me in the first place.       You are reading Fatalis' level correctly. |

@ Haru: That's... exactly what I said about the whole "buy an egg" thing...
@ Flamer: You're probably right. Didn't exactly hurt to try though. Due to popular vote, mods, please end this failure of an idea. That goes for everyone else too, no need to post here and longer. Sorry if I offended anyone with this. -------------------- [align=center]

You didn't offend anyone, I just thought it wasn't a great idea. Also, if you give up that easily, you won't get very far in life.

I don't think this is that bad of an idea. <.<
And since I saw you mention Cyndaquil yesterday or the day before in another topic, Geoffrey, I've been breeding mine for you since. XD I just dumped a few eggs in the shelter a couple minutes ago, actually. >_> I'll keep breeding until you get one. This post has been edited by Ake: Feb 21 2009, 01:35 PM |

I didn't think I offended anyone, but it doesn't hurt to make sure that I didn't. I usually don't give up too easily, but you guys did present a good argument, which I couldn't counter.
And thanks for the nice complement at the end of your post.  *EDIT* Thanks a ton Ake, I really appreciate it.

No problem. XD
And is that a Beldum in your signature? <.< I've always wanted one of those, if you got a ditto or something. |

QUOTE(Geoffrey @ Feb 21 2009, 06:36 PM) Couldn't agree more. Although getting rid of the lag would be nice, and as long as they make it limited to 1 or 2 at the most, and make them infertile, there shouldn't be too much of a problem. -------------------- |

Sorry Nae, but this is officially closed.
But keep an eye out: I just drop four Turtwig/Chikorita eggs in the shelter. -------------------- [align=center]

If people want to breed rares and send them all to the shelter, that's their prerogative. I see nothing wrong with it, it's just that person's idea of sharing their good fortune. Once they're in the shelter, though, anyone can get them, so it seems impossible to designate a particular owner. But it's still a nice thing for the breeder to be doing, IMHO
-------------------- I claim...  ~  ~  ~ Skorupi Breeder ~ Currently making babies with Pair #2 Help me to raise these Pokemon! I'll try my best to click back!       If I click all of your Pokemon/eggs, and you only click one of mine in return, I won't click yours again. It's called "Tit for Tat" and it's a strategy in both game theory and population biology, and you can read all about it on Wikipedia.  |

Umm, no offence meant by this mods but is this thread going to be closed?
Also, it might just be the time zones but I haven't seen the any mods around here lately. I know Darck said he wasn't going to be around much anymore, but I haven't seen Shoutai or the Global Mods much, apart from Letan when he ended our 80+ run in the Count As High As Possible Before A Mod Posts, (I still haven't forgiven you for that btw) -------------------- |

This thread seems kinda pointless to me. If you want someone to breed you something, couldn't you just set it up over PM?

The thread is indeed pointless. Which is why I haven't been posting in here any further, and wished others wouldn't post here anymore either...
I tried. I failed. I got over it. So, let's bury this... -------------------- [align=center]
