It doesn't really matter where it is - it's just this particular attitude about requests that kind of irks me (and quite a few other artists, tbh) and I felt the need to point out why it's kind of a bad attitude to have about them. Once again, Sorry for randomly barking at you about it. XD

Normally, warning points expire over time, so you can be moderated or even read only'd for a while, but eventually have your warning points expire and then you can come back and post as though nothing happened. However, we CAN set accounts permanently read only - in certain sections or globally - and if someone REALLY doesn't understand or doesn't want to follow the rules, that's when we launch them off for good.

So yes, you're still safe for now. Of course, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't do your best not to break any rules anyway. ^^

Thank You!

It's actually a bit of a mish-mash. I made the frame for something else out of elements that are quite me-ish (plants, biometallic plating, crystals, vague bladey looks and quasi-runic markings) and wasn't quite sure what to put in - so I threw in my old Helix Blades picture and added some background effects to call it a day. I've been using it for a while and haven't gotten around to figure out a new one yet. XD

It seems your warning level will drop below 5 (and thus free you from moderation) on June 28th - not too long now. Just don't get into any more trouble ^^

Ok I won't thank you for letting me know!

Basically - the Global Rules apply everywhere on the forums. the RP forum has its own ruleset that applies -in addition- to the global rules. ^^

I had a big guitar phase for a bit years ago but I feel "my" instrument so to speak has always been keyboard instruments - I'm particularly fond of pianos although I tend to play them like keyboards rather than like pianos should be played. Left hand/right hand multi-channeling is the bane of my existence. @_@

Oh, that's cool. A lot of people in my band have easily taught themselves piano due to them already knowing all the notes from their instruments, but I've just never gotten around to it. I've stuck to just Mellophone, Flugelhorn, Trumpet, and Cornet XD

Oh, and I did play claves (two sticks you hit together) for one song in our jazz band if that counts

Would you like for me to show you a picture of it?

I looked it up. Provided the 'gore' aspect of the pastel-gore is not excessive there probably shouldn't be a problem - utilize discretion. If anything is a real problem, we'll let you know.

Ok.

Provided you refrain from breaking any other rules, you're looking at the 1st of July before your warning level drops under 5 and your moderation ends.

my character loves his Pokemon his family and friends let's say that necklace was meant to be found by Kayo when his family and him visited johto he wondered off cause he was only 8 years old because parents talk too long he was told not to go in the burned building but he did anyway and something led him to find that necklace but i don't know

It's also why I asked you because you may come up with something with it

He was questioned by trainers and people during his journey through hoenn all he said was he found it in the burned temple in johto as a child since then he held onto it and when he did lose it it always appeared sort of like a ghostly artifact

I need more specifics than that - send me a conversation message with a more detailed description of the plot and what you intend to do with the Magearna in question, what will its purpose in the story be etc. ^^

Dang it. I wanted to change it, but the spam has been dealt with. Thank you! I was worried my 300 word long story was too short. Can you look at my Written Works? I'd like to know if you have an opinion on them at all.

Reading tons of fic is not something I've been having a lot of time for lately - but I've taken a cursory look at a few chapters and - well, they're fairly... basic? Almost a laconic description of events, not much more to them than that at the moment. Still, everyone must start somewhere! Keep at it. ^^

Oh.... okay?

A word to the wise: Only a person who is deeply insecure about their abilities feels the need to boast them over those of others.
Another word to the wise: I can also very realistically stop you from using those by effectively removing your ability to post.
Do not test the patience of the admins. XP

I sense a contradiction in that paragraph.
But okay, I shall slowly back away.

And I try not to dig graves. Especially my own

Z-Crystals are fine. Mega evolutions need approved by staff on a case-by-case basis, we need specific details, which you can find in the rules.

So, it's the hoenn league, and everyone's closest pokemon can get one mega stone if they like. Proof they have a strong bond is that they were able to collect all 8 gym badges from Hoenn, and some even have collected them from other regions.

Super sorry about that rule break, I don't know what was going through my head when I uploaded it. Thanks for reminding me.

Oh okay fair enough

I will see what Pokemon I can use for that

I just made a new trainer card you it's Kayo champ(3) and I'm going to use emboar for the battle bond if that's okay since he doesn't have a mega evolution

Read the rules - they answer that question. ^^

Wow.... nice consideration with methods.

Try steadily developing a fan region for over 10 years and observing ingame trends, it kind of does wonders. XD

wow i try to make fan stuff and the best i got was making a legit dex and art for the starters and gym info and e4 stuff and stats for starters

Well, your first post was a double-post (Merged those for you) and the MegaHeracross kid needed to be booted out of the thread for writing posts that seem to have absolutely nothing to do with anything - but everything else seems to be in order. ^

Yea, I thought so too, but I didn't want to be mean like that, and sorry for the double post, my mistake. Thanks for the feedback!

Regigigas was never catchable - only the lesser regis.

oh, there were some trainer who had it in the mangas

If the form change is a form that you came up with entirely by yourself, not excessively overpowered and the person who started the thread you're trying to do this in is okay with the presence of fanmade Pokemon - feel free to.

Keep in mind that Battle Bond is not exactly Mega Pokemon-tier here, too. It's a power boost, but it doesn't turn your Pokemon into a divine face-smasher. Also, the same things Ash went through with his Disco Ninja Frog should also apply - there needs to be a degree of synchronization/link between trainer and Pokemon, the trainer feels what the Pokemon feels, and the bond may take a while to learn to perfect.

OK, thanks Stellar

You're not set read only in the RP forums, but you are in moderation and so far nothing you've attempted to post in the RP forums was entirely rule compliant and thus could not be approved. Again. Read the rules and attempt to follow them.

Same here.

I'm not actually sure what the issue might be, tbh - if this is a technical problem, @Teapot might be capable of figuring this out better than I can. ^^

That would be a good idea. Having to issue multiple warnings for the same sort of violation to a person who seems to otherwise have the brainpower to know better is not a productive use of anyone's time. XD

Same here XD

I primarily use Adobe Photoshop, but that is prohibitively expensive to obtain through means that aren't, shall I say... sketchy. There's other pieces of software out there that are free though - FireAlpaca and Krita come highly recommended. There's also Paint Tool SAI, but that one isn't free - although compared to Adobe's highway robbery, it's much cheaper.

As for tips? Mostly the usual artist advice: Don't be afraid to try new things to find what you enjoy drawing. When you find a focus, learn what you can about it - anatomy, proportions, motion, perspective. The internet is full of resources that can help you get better. And most importantly - practice!

Thanks for the advice Stellar-chan/Kun

Yeah, this particular brain hero had THREE different accounts, which is not allowed by our rules - All have been merged into one account and they have been launched off for their foolishness. XD

If the fanmade pokemon in question are 100% your own creation, there's really no problem with it. If they aren't, you need to present proof that you got permission from the fanmade pokemon's creator to use it.

My Fakemon are always made by me

As for digimon - that's up to you. You can easily run a mix of existing official Digimon with Digimon that you've come up with yourself, and sometimes even mix them together if you're working with Digimon that don't have evolutionary lines that you think are fitting (I've done that with Floramon, for example).

Thank you. And at the time of the post I had not watched the final episode of Adventure 02. I guess I had never really realized that Tamers and 02 were separate universes, until within the last few hours, with your post and that last episode.

As for the setting, I think I'll got with something similar to how you enter the Digital World in Digimon Wolrd DS (if you are familiar with the game), run with my personal Digimon, like Kendomon, Draumon, and ???mon. Again, thank you for the advice

If I had some arbitrary unit of currency for every time someone asked me that question, I'd have an awfully large number of arbitrary units of currency. XD The simple answer is that I don't have -one- favorite but a whole damn lot of favorites which I really can't choose between and would take far too long to list individually. ^^

Ok, i have been reading your profile and some of the things you have to deal with seem pretty hard

I don't see any reason why not. ^^

ok I just had to check since she is a bit...skimpy (Despite the fact she has no sex organs) and I've become so attached to this site I am scared as shit of being kicked off

The simple answer is you can't - if someone who was not approved by you to join the thread attempts to post, report it using the report system, and we'll remove the offending post. if the problem persists we -can- prevent specific people from posting in specific threads.

Ah. I see. Thank you for pointing that out. I really appreciate it.

As opposed to a nightmare for rule-breakers?

P. much! Trust me when I say that I would be a very happy biomechanical abomination if I didn't have to spend unholy amounts of time shutting down RPs, yelling at children and eviscerating sock-puppets every day. Alas, that's the world for ya. XD

Damn, I can only imagine how you feel.
Actually, I'm pretty sure I know firsthand how you feel. I would be a very happy air spirit if it wasn't for the amount of stupidity I'm exposed to every time I step into an area where I have to socialise

Being new does not exactly exempt you from reading the rules and following them before you make any posts, y'know - but so long as you know better now, there's no need to apologize ^^

^^ Thank you very much, You are so Kind!

Either way, at present your account only has two warning points - which means that there are no additional restrictions on your account yet - and should you not break any other rules, these will expire with time as well. ^^

Ok, and I'd like to apologize about the mistake I made posting my emulator screen shot, I thought it would be okay because of face reveals, etc. not being actual art. Just to say, I always try to respect the rules, and sometimes I break them by accident, so I'll try my best to not break any of the rules.

No need to apologize - one of the reasons we /have/ a warning system like this is to explain if something is wrong - either by pointing out the relevant rules or leaving an opening for further questions - unless of course the violation is a repeated violation or something so blatant it requires immediate termination. XD
