    I have a little question. My friend, lil_lady_mew (her account name) got banned and she contacted me via email to tell me that she didn't know what she had done to cause such a ban, so I want to know on her behalf. What happened?
    Speaking of that topic, I decided to make a cute little sock puppet Pokémon that manipulates others for their own gain. (And I have to admit, it’s actually kinda funny to be able to use the opposing trainer’s Pokémon against them or even themselves in a fight. Please don’t hate me for making such an adorable Pokémon...)
    Stupid thing to do: Sockpuppet. Mind-numbingly asinine thing to do: Sockpuppet and draw attention to yourself by using my art as an avatar.
    Now i just have a question about the legendary/mythical pokemon things in the rules as my two have seen a legendary in their lifetime,one has only read about Latios and Latias (her living in Alto Mare),i'm wondering if that's ok.
    If that's not acceptable then i'm fine with dropping them from their backstory.

    Having _read about_ legendaries is perfectly fine - they wouldn't be legendaries if there weren't _legends_ about them, now, would they? The problem begins when characters actually physically encountered these creatures. ^^ What happened with the character that did?

    in their backstory i just simply state they saw them for like a brief moment and thats about it
    So, um hi. I just realized how cool your profile Pic is and also, do you know how to keep an RP from dying?

    Thanks! Mind you, It's old as spheres now and I haven't really had the time to develop a new one, which is why i've had the same one since... good grief, 2012 now? Time. What is.

    Anyway, regarding the RP thing - I find that RPs kind of tend to do that unless all parties involved somehow remain committed and don't wander off to the next shiny new thread that pops up every three seconds.

    This is part of the reason that I am very selective re: the people I RP with (and that, given the fact we are all busy people, said RPs tend to move at a phenomenally glacial pace).
    Hey, Stellar, I have a quick question.

    I'm planning to do a PMD RP (my first RP in a while) and for it, there is a part where a bunch of people are sucked into another dimension (not the Distortion World) and I want the boss to be an extra-powerful Zoroark. The extra power I have in my mind is boosted Sp. Atk., Def. and Spd. Is this okay with you, and if not, can you help me modify it to fit the RP rules?
    I am wondering if my fan made Pokémon would be considered having legendary caliber power if they are able to utilize their ability to reverse all damage and healing for a brief amount of time, then go into a state of withdrawal for a longer period of time. (Where they would have increased damage vulnerability or perhaps have their stats harshly reduced.)

    Well... that might be a problem I would have to look at, since lil’ Nucador has the potential to recover from a critical condition to basically if nothing happened. (If I do have to consider toning down his ability, then I might maybe make it so that there is a fixed cap on how much he can recover to or have a decreased mutiplier of recovered health.)
    StellarWind Elsydeon

    Also remember that fanmade pokemon require you to exercise common sense and should only be used in threads that either you started or where the thread starter permits the presence of fanmades.

    Yep, I already knew that part. I guess I might need to maybe have the little Pokémon take it easy with his poison tanks...
    Is there a way to rearrange different works within a series? I accidently uploaded some in the wrong order and was wandering if possibly you or I could do it somehow. Thanks.
    Just when you think sock-generating idiots couldn't be any stupider... the internet finds new ways to surprise me.
    So, I've been noticing something when people are tagging other members in RP forums or when posting art. If there are too many tags on the post, they will all cancel each other out and not tag anybody at all. My question is, do you know the limit of how many people can be tagged in a post before they cancel each other out?
    *a gecko Pokémon hands a letter* I have a quick question to ask reguarding about creating an RP and the field of RPing. So, is there a way to restrict a specific person from posting in the RP thread like a blacklist of some sort?

    Anyway! Staff members are capable of banning a specific person from replying to a specific thread. However, there has to be a justified reason for this - feel free to contact me via a conversation and inform me of your case there, and I'll see what I can do.

    Oh, alright. I was just wondering about this situation since I may be needing to address that last part some time soon if the time is right and if that person tries to join. (And well... I suppose I might need to stop letting the little Pokémon of mine sneak in here.)
    I have a question about RP. If you are the creator of an RP, and personally don't like some of the RP rules, could you bypass some of the rules?
    I had no clue that primarina was unofficial, three of my friends sent me one pokemon sprite each. And my job was to fuse them. I'm sorry for doing that, next time ill check
    StellarWind Elsydeon

    A good rule of thumb to remember is that anything past generation 5 does not use sprites but rather 3D models. Thus any sprites people might send you of Pokemon from generations 6 and on (including mega evolutions etc) are custom-made. Not to say you can't make your own sprites from scratch, of course! Just don't use the works of other people. ^^

    Hey, I don't know if you could answer this question, but why is the "This user was last seen doing blahblah three minutes ago" really messed up for me? For example, a user could have recently posted in a conversation, and in the "This user was last seen" part it said they were "Engaged in conversation 4 hours and 35 minutes ago". It shows normally for some, but for most it's messed up. Is it because of time zones?
    Quick question, why can't I see signatures on mobile? I used to be able to, and now I can't.

    Not sure, to be honest. Technical questions should probably be directed to our developers, though. @Teapot - Any thoughts?
    Teapot

    I don't believe you've ever been able to on the current iteration of the site. It's a deliberate choice to save screen space (and your data cap, given how many images people like to put in their signatures...)
    FrostCrispz
    FrostCrispz
    I'm pretty sure you could. The signatures disappeared about a week ago, so I thought it might be a bug or something
    Heya! Since it's been a little over a week, I'm just wondering how long apps typically take? Not trying to rush you, I'm just psyching myself out a bit. It'd help me if I knew about when I might get a ye or nay, haha. :0

    Oh dear gog, apologies - these things are usually much faster - I haven't forgotten you, I've just that there is quite a bit to consider here and I've been busy as all spheres lately. ^^; I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can.

    Seems that Teapot already handled this - but for future reference, that's what the report system is for - next time you have issues like this, use the system to report them. Someone from staff will see and handle the issue as soon as possible! ^^

    Can I have a Mega Blastoise in lunar sivally's rp?
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    Have you read the rules? If you had, you'd know that there is information that I need to approve a Mega Evolution. Contact me via private message with all that information and we can talk.
    Quick question, would it be within the rules to make a spin-off of Mario Brothers called Maro Bros about two Marowaks?
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    What exactly do you mean by that?
    FrostCrispz

    I mean a story based on Mario, with a Kantonian Marowak as Mario and an Alolan Marowak as Luigi. They would be fighting a Groundon who takes a princess Cubone

    If you're talking about a fic/creative corner work, that's fine, those are not particularly regulated. An RP to the effect though? No. Hopefully that helps.
    I did it. I found a Star Wars character with lightsaber armblades. And he is canon too! His name is Irek Ismaren if you want to look him up. He has a pretty interesting backstory as well.
    *a Chiral Oshawott quietly hands you a note* "My new year's resolution is to stop abusing the powers of dark energy when things don't go my way and to give the shell thing on my stomach a break when I'm not in battle.

    I have a full-time job, I’m currently 250 miles away from my computer, it’s Christmas, and I’m the only one who can do updates. It’s a huge priority for me, but it’s still constrained by reality. It’ll be done as soon as it possibly can be.
    You said in the Rp rules that cosmog cannot be bonded with, but what about the exception of Lillie and Nebby?
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    The Cosmog line remains out of bounds as anything more than an Encounter primarily due to its relative power level and its ability for Ultra Spatial travel - Too much potential for abuse, especially in light of recent events in the games and the classification of Ultra Beasts as legendaries.
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    Also, RPing primarily as a canon character (as more than a cameo appearance or a brief plot encounter) or a relative of such etc., while not against the rules, is rather frowned upon in general. RPs involve multiple people and their views of a particular character may not coincide with yours.
    Quick question. Would it be possible for me to create a rp about hunting for legendary pokemon? Another legendary question, what about in an OC background/history?
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    StellarWind Elsydeon
    Both of these thing require staff approval and you're going to have to get into specifics.
    Mother -FUCK-. Some people literally refuse to take 'no' for an answer, and even a thorough systematic 'fuck off' is evidently insufficient.
    I admire your work, you're the leader that absolutely does not mess around!
    That is what a leader should be!
    Hey, so a user called Frisk_The_Human apparently "had his brother do something and now he can't do anything apart from make conversations." Are they read-only or something?

    They aren't. They were moderated, and most of their posts were not approved as they continued breaking the same rules that got them moderated in the first place. It appears their warnings expired, but if they continue failing to follow the rules they MIGHT be thrown right back in to moderation, though.
