just wondering if the moderation issue of the past who pushed me to leave are finally better. or if the mods just got better at hiding complaint since it's the first time in a while that i didn't manage to find any on the forum. or have the mods just killed everyone?
so yeah i am kinda wondering what the moderation situation is these days. also if any of y'all know if my punishment record gets reset after a while i would like that knowledge.

Now for anyone that is in this thread that wants some real advice on how to make friends, then I can give a few points (the spoilers will show you how not to conduct your conversations):
1. Be cool, don't get worked up about the little things.
System Message: (Doug defeated [Insert your name here] in a duel)
Doug: "gg"
You: "Argh, you only won because of RNG. I would have beaten you if Will-O-Wisp landed."
System Message: (You are no longer friends with Doug)
System Message: (You were blocked by Doug)
Or
System Message: (You defeated Trina in a duel)
Trina: "gg"
You: "Ha, go away newb!"
System Message: (You are no longer friends with Trina)
System Message: (You were blocked by Trina)
2. Try to understand what people are trying to tell you.
Bob: "Oh, I have to go to the bathroom...."
You: "That's great, but I would like to ask about my Hydreigon. Should I run it mixed or have it specialise in special attack?"
Bob: "Come on man! Go to the Competitive Assistance section on forums."
System Message: (You are no longer friends with Bob)
System Message: (You were blocked by Bob)
3. Ask him/her how he/she is doing when in the introduction stage of a conversation. It creates good rapport from the start. Also, wish him/her a nice day.
You: "Hello"
Michael: "Hello"
You: "So, what do you think about Gengar?"
Michael: "Well Gengar is great, but Hydreigon is a tad better."
Michael's Mind: "Man I wish that [Insert your name here] would ask how I am doing. Am I chopped liver?"
You: "Well I am going to get going. Bye!"
Michael: "Bye...."
Michael's Mind: "Man, [Insert Your Name Here] doesn't care about me."
Extra Note:
Sometimes, people specify that they can do without the usual greetings which in that case, you can go straight to the conversation. However, when I speak with people, I want to see if their in a good, neutral, or bad mood. In order for me to gauge that, I either hear subtle cues like "Hey, I am quite busy" or I ask him/her how he/she is doing.
4. Help them out in times of need.
Tom: "Hey [Insert your name here], I need my Haunter to evolve. Can you trade him back to me once he evolves?"
You: "There are mods out on the Global Chat, so don't bother me, thanks."
Tom: "What friend you are, the moderators are quite busy and I have a friend right here where I am."
You: "Yes, but I am a player and I log on just for fun. Good luck man."
System Message: (You are no longer friends with Tom)
You: "Why?"
System Message: (You were blocked by Tom)
5. Try not to discuss topics that are taboo in normal conversation.
Sally: "So how is the weather?"
You: "Great, but did you hear about [insert political comment here]?"
Sally: "I come on PokeMMO to relax. If I want to catch up on my news, then I can go to a news channel that I trust."
You: "That is a shame, Global always discusses great topics."
Sally: "I can't..."
(You are no longer friends with Sally)
You: "but, I want to get your opinion on..."
(You were blocked by Sally)
I am not a trained therapist, but I've been around in life to know how to make friends. Hopefully, this advice can be helpful for those who need it (I tried to insert humour so that the lesson can be remembered much better).
Want to make this advice better? Just tell them to do random shit. People seem to like that and often add you because they think you are funny or just because you don't look like an npc. Then just keep doing/sending random shit to them when you wanna talk to get the ball rolling. Worked great for me and it made me find nice people that aren't sensitive about everything.

They could, but then we would miss out on all the kanto events in hgss. Also the visual and music upgrade.
are you saying the game would miss some feature the original had? that's UNHEARD OF this NEVER happen before we have EVERYTHING working on all the game we currently have here.
but for real they can basically reuse anything they want in a different way given enough time so everything could happen.

Wouldn't that kind of ruin the immersion, there's more to a game then functionality.
you know they could simply block off the kanto part of ss/hs right? then they could potentially merge the 2 together if they don't outright replace gen 3 kanto with the gen 4 version.

sorry but it was more bad english than i could handle so i fixed it a bit. i am not a native speaker so it is most likely far from perfect but at least it's better.
3 minutes ago, Minks said:literally 30 minutes after i post this, you guys ban someone for making a joke in global. like, this thread is gonna get closed bc its an RMT thing and this post is probably gonna get deleted for whatever reason, but the irony is ridiculous
that wouldn't surprise me if they deleted this, they deleted one of my previous thread becaus i called them out for being *redacted*. but i see i came to check out if things where better just in between case of staff abuse in general discussion. at thise rate i might never come back honestly.

i also think chat should be moderated less strictly, it has already resulted in some regulars staying away.
if you need names of people who stoped playing becaus of it i am availible
6 minutes ago, Desu said:We're not going to teach you how we detect RMT.
nobody ask you for specific detail on how you got the information just what information you have. i am sure you should be able to provide it without compromising your detection system
8 minutes ago, Desu said:Yes, that's what he's complaining about.
that sounds oddly similar to a doctor who decide what illness you have instead of finding what it actually is. it can work fine most of the time but it can lead to massive fuck up. you should be carefull about that.

since i see a lack of staff bashing on the first page of the general discussion for once i got curious if it would be safe to play again without fearing mute/ban nearly for just talking in the chat about anything mildly interesting that isn't pokemon related. or is the staff still going strong with their dictatorship metality and killing those complaining sooner now?

Once they AI switches, the target is no longer subject to Destiny Bond meaning you'd have to use it again. Also bearing in mind that Destiny Bond only works if it is KO'd that turn unless it operates on Gen 7 rules, in which case the only way to remove the effects of Destiny Bond is a switch. So no, I know what I am referring to. It ruins the strategy if the AI is able to switch out as you have to use Destiny Bond again which effectively wastes a turn. Hence why Mean Look is typically combined with it so that the target is trapped and forced to attack.
I googled it to check the gen 7 mechanic for destiny bound and i don't see why npc switching would be that bad of a thing unless it just switched every turn until you don't have any destiny bound left to use. Yes there is a fairly decent chance you will wast your turn using it but mean look won't help much with that. Taunt might give better result honestly. I know npc are smarter here but i doubt that they where made to outright ruin some good move unless you have a second one to be able to use it.

Not really no because you'd have to use Mean Look as well to trap them otherwise there is a chance the AI could switch out and ruin everything.
I think you are confusing destiny bound with curse here. Not saying switch from the npc won't be an issue but it doesn't seem like it would ruin everything.

I wasted hella ultra balls on it in story, I've only had one alt where I managed to catch it within a few balls.
and that's why you should have used pokeball instead. also now that i think about it i did catch it with my alt has well in not that many pokeball not sure of the exact number but it was like 6 pokeball max. one of us might be quite far from average here so i wonder if i was lucky or if you where really unlucky.

Since took more than 2 years for the developers to announce platinum (and we are still waiting) and it is a fun project, I assume that we will not be able to play HG & SS before 2021, if we have different conceptions of time and for you 2 years are "soon", well good for you.
honestly i am just someone optimistic in general but i remain realist the most possible and your estimation of before 2021 for hg/ss seems like a pretty funny joke to me. if i had to guess when johto would come i would say at best we could see the pts by the end of 2021 but i highly doubt it will be this soon.
9 hours ago, lallo17 said:I think that one of the problems with HG & SS developement could be that Kanto map is a main part of the story and the developers can't just cut it off like they did with Unova's additional zones.
i never played hg/ss i only played the original silver back when i was a kid but i am pretty sure you could finish the johto region while completly avoiding kanto so it should be easy to cut off if it is still the same way. in the event that the story was changed by the remake forcing you to go to kanto to finish johto the devs can just rewrite some part of the story since they can pretty much mess with everything since they have access to the all the assets with the roms.

Not fully implemented though. HG/SS has happiness increased while walking, messages when examining them, and at some point there's a sort of "pickup" ability I think. I don't remember if it was random items or only the leaves(?). There's also the minigames, Mom saving/spending money, and Kurt's apricorn balls. This is just what I can think of at the moment.
Pokemon happiness allready increase while you walk. i am pretty sure we allready pick up stuff by ourselves sometimes so no need for that. The devs ignored a good amount of mini games so far so one more not being implemented wouldn't be surprising. The mom saving has pretty much no use here since you don't loose money when you are beaten. The apricorn would be a dope thing to add though. The only thing we don't exactly have and wouldn't really want is the message when examining our pokemon.

I would say it's just a noob spouting nonsense. The only things I could see being an issue with HG/SS is fully implementing follower gimmicks, and the Safari Zone.
The follower are allready implemented though and work with gen 5 mon has well (with the help of a mod)
15 hours ago, awkways said:Having 2 kantos would be really weird since 1 is in the future and the other in the past. For example Cinnibar island is totally different. I doubt they'd just add Johto and not the future Kanto so you'd need a time machine or some other weird method of adding both. Don't get me wrong, Johto is my favorite and i'd love to see it added one day.
You know they can just cut off the gen 4 kanto like they cut some part of unova right? Also i am not sure about this but i am pretty sure they said they wanted to update kanto to gen 4 at some point. It's pretty much at the bottom of the to do list but they might get there some day.

Exactly why it needs to be 100%, because luck shouldn't make you waste a ton of pokeballs for no reason.
Also yea my luck leaves a lot to be desired
Just saying but i am not against the idea. I support it but i was just saying you are a rare case and it's not that bad for most people.

I agree. Having to use say 12 or more ultra balls while getting your team rekt by a god is not a particularly fun experience.
Pretty sure if you need to use 12 ultra ball you are just amazingly unlucky because it's catch rate is already fairly high ( i caught it on like my 2 or 3 pokeball at full hp)

Do items change each holiday event or has it ever happened that a past item came back?
event item have never been reused so far but the possibility is out there if they ever run out of idea for cosmetic related to the event.
also has anyone mentioned the new year party hat so far? that thing is so rare it might has well be consider unobtainable. not sure there is even any left in the wild.

Has long has you don't use it outside the region it won't overlevel. Once it reaches the level cap it will store the exp and not lvl up past the current cap in the region you are in.
-
Simple if a pokemon is over your lvl cap it will kill itself right away if you try throwing it out you can move pokemon between regions has much has you want but their lvl will just keep getting higher to more you use them like normal. If a pokemon has strored exp from a region where you have a lvl cap it will lvl up at its first use in any region where your lvl cap allows it.

from what i tested non OT starter register just fine for the alpha dex. you just need to trade it back and forth with someone to have it register if you have one from before the alpha dex was added.
