man torrents for elden ring are already up. fromsoft out here like "yeah our fanbase will buy our game." the sheer confidence of not having heavy DRM in this day and age.

(they are right. i'm not pirating it, just know people who did to try it and said they'd buy it later; fromsoft is a company I'd support because their games are generally pretty quality and worth the price.)

considering my site has only grown from word-of-mouth, directories, and affiliates, I honestly just have not bothered advertising in a while and should have just deleted my advertising board already.

master duel solo mode legit has some obnoxiously hard duels, and it's not because your opponent has a good deck

no, they just decided that the most dogshit ritual decks should be in the rotation and you have to play them. meanwhile if you brick with any competent rogue deck, you can still beat the enemy. but noooooo konami says use ruin, queen of bad cards.

my actual thought was training pokemon for disability purposes and picking Pokemon specifically geared for that reason, not so much battling-- as well as possible training "search and rescue" pokemon? I was thinking possible action plots that don't necessarily involve being a Battling Trainer, such as a researcher or a ranger or someone who wants to learn to capture and breed pokemon for domestic purposes (such as, for instance, training Aipoms for the elderly that need assistance with eating or what not).

so the idea is, i would want access to new pokemon as the story dictates. i'll wait and see on this, but it already looks more like what i'm looking for and not what i'm not looking for. basically, a site that facilitates action/adventure plots without just being about grinding, and having ample room for quiet moments, is what i'm after.

Curious about the system of the site-- I can't guarantee I'll have time, but I have been craving a site that doesn't have any restrictions on catching Pokemon/starting with Pokemon, or require everything to be threaded out. Note that I'm OK with a Regional Dex and no legendaries being reasonable limitations, and for there being restrictions on shinies, but I don't wanna have to do a moderated thread to get every Pokemon past my first (and hoping that moderators decide to give me the Pokemon I want). I find that makes everything really tedious, and I'm not interested in that kind of RP loop.

So I guess that's my question: is your site gonna be a hard system site or a more character development adventure focused?


edit to clarify: i'd be ok if there was a shop system to "buy" more Pokemon than you're allowed to start with or evolve Pokemon or smth, or tying it to Site Event Participation, but I mostly am looking for something that doesn't require the loop of "start a thread to catch a pokemon, encounter wild pokemon ad nauseam, repeat" while also not being strictly slice-of-life. also I'm not really asking in the event of pseudos; I really just like picking teams and pokemon that fit my character, and am hoping for no stats because I actually do like objectively "terrible" pokemon in RP.

final edit: what's the site policy on original art?

yeah honestly like with the standards of people today esp for aesthetics, it's way too much work to put up a niche site. I think it'd be ok if people were willing to join sites with default skins

Yeaaaah. Aesthetics are important for me too. I mean I suck at them from time to time, but I hate the default skins with a passion. Or sites with solidly blinding colors. It isn't hard to grab a premade. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, but the default proboards white/blue kills my soul. Idk about default jcink, never been there. Makes me sound incredibly stuck up or picky but I'm not talking it has to be hella beautiful and aesthetic. Nah. Just something with a little more. Maybe at least a banner image or a background. Balanced colors and not something to melt off my eyeballs like neon green on straight black. Aesthetic is important, but anything just above default is fine.
i meant a premade = default.

sorry. i know some ppl won't join sites that use skins other sites use and that's what i meant.

debating a laid-back canon Pern site with no accepting list (members can bring in 1 gold and it doesn't affect what you can Impress), soft gender Impression (i.e. it's an IC expectation but dragons OOCly have no preference), room for LGBT characters, and possibly member-run clutches of 2-6 (ICly the queens clutch more but PC eggs will be noted).

possibly multiple locations as well. just kinda exploring shit in a canon pern with a bit of darkness but otherwise just kinda exists.

I think it'd be ok if people were willing to join sites with default skins, but they're not always and I have kinda realized that unless I've got a specific long-term partner looking at a site with me, I'm probably not gonna do it.

Ars Arcanum lagged more than I thought it would bc I got Covid and shit just kinda happens, but the reason I'm still sticking with it is because my long-term partner talks about it enough that I know if I keep posting, he'll be there. That's enough for me to at least try to finish this project >.>
