• Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.

    Posted Artwork Not Showing Up?

    Ah yes, those. Those were removed because you MSPainted over images of a shirt and a dress that you evidently randomly found on a Google Image Search, and that is not allowed by our rules. Admittedly, I should have probably applied a warning when I removed those, but there you have it. To...

    If it's art that you created yourself, you can post it here too, regardless of whether or not you posted it on other websites (under your own account of course) - A lot of the art I have posted here is also posted elsewhere.

    Creative Flash Challenge: This Is Halloween

    Flash Challenges, for those of you who have forgotten what those entail (or were not around for the last ones to know what those entail in the first place) are freeform artistic prompts centered around a particular theme, meant to inspire creative works for whomever wishes to take them on. This...

    Apologies if I got a bit snippy - as numerous people I know make their living via art, the subject of misappropriation and art theft is kind of a particular point that makes my armblades twitch. It does appear that our rules could stand a bit of clarification and/or elaboration if people...

    If bases are used, a link must be provided to the original base, as it was uploaded by its original creator - including the page where it was found on so we can reach out to the original creator and ask them about it in any case of dispute.

    B. Bases that were specifically created by their original creator for the purpose of editing by other people, and that the original creator made free to use and edit for this purpose.

    To clarify re: permitted exceptions. The only images that are not Your Own Work that we permit use or edit of are: A. Certain types of official Pokemon art - this includes sprites from the official games, Ken Sugimori art and Dream world art.

    Works that have been traced/drawn over still count as art theft as they still copy another person's work and claiming it as yours - and that is not acceptable. There is a fine line between reference and trace, and crossing that line will get you ripped a new one.

    Open Pokemon Nursery

    Folks. Remember that according to our rules, posts in the RP forum must be at least one paragraph long, and these one-liners are not going to fly. Also remember posts need to be in past tense. RPing in "would" is nonsensical (edited the one instance i ran into of that so far, please do not do...

    Open Pokemon High School

    Zark on a velociraptor, did none of you read the RP forum rules? Posts in the RP forum must be third person, past tense, story format (not script format or actions-denoted-by-asterisks-whatever-that-is) and be AT LEAST one paragraph long. This cluster of present-tense one liners is simply...

    Oh yes, that thing. I meant to temporarily lock it while dealing with a particular user's continuous grammar fails, realized the situation didn't actually warrant removing posts and... utterly forgot to unlock the thread because it was the middle of the zarking night. Thread unlocked now.

    You actually put it in General Role Play rather than General Role Play Discussion, which makes it TWICE the wrong place to post it! But thanks for bringing this to my attention - thread moved. ^^

    Quick Question. How do I make my RP title bold?

    The simple answer is: you don't. Thread titles on the forums become bold if they had new posts in them since the last time you saw them, and stop being bold once you've checked them out, until the next time a new unread post exists in them.

    Uploading our own Sprite for our character?

    There are literally two threads in this board, one for sprite submissions and one for background submissions, and that's all there is in this board. The first post of both these threads explains the technical criteria which sprites you submit must meet and what you need to label them with to be...

    Open Mystery Dungeon Roleplay

    Rappid55's posts have been removed as they contained autoing, chatspeak, additional blather and further violations of our various rules - including, as it turns out, being a sockpuppet account for Pokeleader12345. Some children, evidently, never learn. Several other posts that interacted with...

    In any case you currently have two warning points that are set to expire on November 5th - and provided you don't break any other rules and receive any other warnings, you don't have much to worry about.

    Staff has a way to keep track of this integrated into the warning system itself. I'm not sure if it's visible to non-staff users.

    If a user accumulates 5 or more active warning points, their account is moderated - which means that a staff member needs to approve any post they may make before it becomes visible to anyone else. If a user crosses the 10 point line, their account is set read only - which means they are unable...

    If a rule being broken warrants more than just a verbal warning, staff members use the warning system to assign warning points to an account. The number of points and the duration before they expire varies by the offense and is ultimately up to our discretion as staff.
