I must admit, I'm not actually missing it much. I don't think it helped getting the Charizard so early on, cause thats the only Pokemon I really cared about. I've never really been much of a one for the whole collect them all thing, or in this case hatch them all. The egg games fun, but its not really the main reason I'm a member here, the forums are. Although I have definatly appreciated all the increased activity since the egg thing opened. There's definatly a lot more topics to post in and people to discuss stuff with, even if lots of them are only interrested in the eggs.

I may have joined because of GPX+ but I'm hoping to be more active in other areas of the forums. I was obsessed when I first started (I was annoyed when it went down to begin with) but I'm over it. I'm not that obsessed but I do find it fun. :\
Prescription? Find something else to do on the site. I'm hoping to join PANE so I have something active to do here rather than be an egg maniac. -------------------- Intuitive Aptitude, a small forum, has recently begun a Pokémon Roleplay project called Team Wars.

The GPX is just a feature for me, definitely not the reason I joined, or the reason I'm still here.

GPX is just a feature to me, not the reason why I'm here.

Since I now have a Cyndaquil, I find no reason to like GPX+ anymore. It's actually really boring now. Plus, it makes the forums lag so much I have to wait an hour before I can actually see the forums. GPX+ is making swarms of newbies come in and make the forums as slow as hell. I'm pretty sure about half of the new members since GPX came out are only here for the eggs. It's really annoying me.

I wanted to cry every time it went down.
It's horribly addictive.

@Cyndaquil:
QUOTE(BidoofsAreSassy @ Feb 22 2009, 12:12 AM)  It actually isn't directly caused by the influx of traffic. The server was perfectly capable of handling it, and even semi-capable of handling it before the upgrade the other night. What's been causing the downtime right now, I don't entirely know right now, but we're looking into the issue, of course. Apparently, it's not the new users here just for GPX. Eh, of course it's bound to be boring if there's only one thing you want to get. But, for Flamer, how about aiming for a Shiny Charizard now?

I was thinking of that. But I don't want to breed loads of Charmanders cause then there'd be, well loads of them, so they wouldn't be rare anymore. Might do though if I get really bored. Although I would like to get my Charizard to lv100 first, just for the hell of it. This post has been edited by Flamer: Feb 22 2009, 11:52 AM -------------------- |

I'm not really really addicted. It's something I do in the background while working but I do get a bit sad when it's down like this.
Also a newbie is just a friend you haven't talked to yet ;D -------------------- |

Then, to make things all the more interesting, how about you just try to pick one up from the lab? Sure, it would take a hell of a lot of time, but... I dunno. -------------------- [align=center]

I only play the egg collecting game to pass the time anyway. I still love the main site. I joined in order to access the vast image gallery.

The first time I found the site was from an image search on Google for a Nidoking sprite.

I'm addicted, I really like it, especially since I can do it at school. I'd be more active elsewhere, but I'm too lazy to get into the RP, and the TCG section, which I would love, is horribly inactive

I'll admit I'm pretty much here just for the eggs. >_>
...And that I share rare Pokémon too much. Man, I'm a horrible person. <_< As for addictedness, I'd say somewhat. I could take a few days off and not sweat it. |

Well, I'm going to be horrible and say that I only found this place because of the eggs.
I am slightly hooked on the clicky pets around the web and finding one for pokemon just made my day.  Slowly I'm getting involved in the forum but with school and all, I'm just lagging on time... Still need to do my homework... --------------------      ~I click back equal what you do.~ |

I came here for the eggs, but then I payed attention to what the forums are actually for (i.e. a better trading system). If I had my wifi connection up and running, I'd probably be on here a lot more.
Oh, and as a testament to my level of addiction, check out the custom egg in my sig linking to my party. -_-' --------------------     |
