  • Heads up: I'm away until Thursday evening (UK time). I may miss questions or be slow to respond until then – sorry! :)
    Even then, they don't show up in New and Noteworthy either.

    Same reason. They do appear further down, but that requires scrolling (which no-one does)

    Hey, Why do written works never pop up in popular creative works?

    I can never convince enough people to view and Like them, compared to artworks...

    Shame, really. Some of the written works here are honestly really good, though i do agree that most people would rather look at art than read (including me). Although I still enjoy looking at the occasional writting :)

    My Death Battles appear in New and Noteworthy most of the time. I've also seen a ton of 'Top 10 Facts about my OC' popping up in New and Noteworthy.
    Hey @Teapot , do you ever think we'll get a retro (2007-2013) Charms Style Skin?
    Teapot
    Teapot
    I've always considered it, but to be honest, the theme changed so often and was so different in layout back then that it wouldn't really do justice to any of the old designs. Plus I'd be plagiarising Doctor Oak's good work :p

    Hey @Teapot do you have to like do everything here or can you also do written works of your favorite anime and shows.

    Oh ok thanks
    Teapot

    You are allowed to post written works – articles, stories, and so on – about anything, not just Pokémon. However, it has to be creative – if you're just telling people what your favourite anime is, for example, it's not creative, and so should be on your profile or in a thread on the forums. :)

    A quick note on notifications – if you've "missed" notifications, or not gotten one that you think you should have, I'll explain why...
    Teapot
    Teapot
    This means that you won't be told about further replies. The solution is simply to click alerts whenever you see them – even if you don't read the RP or thread straight away, it'll reset the alerts so you get pinged again in future.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    Another thing to check is that you're watching the thread or RP – at the top of the first post in a forum thread or RP, there's a "Watch Thread" button. If it says "Unwatch Thread," you're already watching the thread and you'll be getting alerts for it. If it says "Watch Thread," though, you'll want to click it to re-watch the RP or thread in question.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    If you're still not getting alerts/notifications and you've done both of the above, let me know – we'll look into it :)
    How do you make a spoiler tab?

    So, you see that little plus on the top bar? Click it, and one of the option will be spoiler, with a crossed out eye. Click it, enter the title, and boom! Spoiler tab! Sorry for doing your job Teapot, I couldn't help myself :3

    Teapot,there's this weird thing happening to me.Whenever I have an alert,it's not even a real one.When I tap it,it doesn't show any alert.Do you think you know what's happening?

    Oh that happens to me too, But that happens because when you open your browser if it was closed and the Alerts were already loaded when opened even when there are new alerts all you have to do is Reload

    Hey hey! Sorry for the late response, I was visiting family in Scotland :D It's going pretty well at the moment – busy busy as always, but mostly in a positive way! How about you – how's the NonAnalogue-based life?
    NonAnalogue
    NonAnalogue
    Pretty NonAnalogous, I must say. But mostly positive too, I think! Though I hear you on being busy. Jobs, yo.
    So, do you happen to be familiar with C dialects, specifically C Robot?I need help understanding the fundamentals, and got no one else to ask

    Sorry, I'm afraid not.

    Ah, alright. I found an online tutorial. I feel like I know the fundamentals now. I'm confident that I can at least code it somewhat. It's very similar to C#, just different names. I picked it up pretty quick
    I feel like there could be a award for role plays like you get 10 points for joining 5 or something like that but that is just what i think.
    Hey Duck-Enthusiast errrr Teapot... I've been meaning to ask you if all the HTML codes here are able to be used? My Dad taught me a couple a few days back and I'm wondering if we can use em here.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    I'm afraid not - for security reasons, we don't have HTML support here. BBCode is based on HTML, though, so your new HTML knowledge should help :)
    Hey again! Is it possible to upload our own custom sprites to a trainer card? I also noticed the only team leader sprites available are all Giovanni, how come?
    Teapot
    Teapot
    I'm afraid not, sorry. And all our custom sprites are community submitted, so we only have what our spriters choose to make and submit. :)
    parisbuffet
    parisbuffet
    @Teapot Ah, I see. Are the spriters open for new suggestions from users?

    Are you capable of adding the number 420 when replying to a post like with the status thing? I was writing something and pressed post and then it said a message must be under 420 characters. I had to delete a lot to post it. Or is 420 charcters just two sentences?
    Teapot
    Teapot
    It's about a paragraph of text, but you can just copy the last couple of sentences into another comment to get around the limit. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to add a number there, sorry.
    Hey, Teapot? I'm having several connection issues, with posts not sending properly until I've refreshed the page and even then, it double posts on occasion. Oh, and as well as that, there's stuff like the alerts not loading and not being able to check the little profile overview when in another page. Is something happening with the servers?
    Teapot
    Teapot
    Everything's fine on this end, I believe. I'll take a look and see if there's anything acting up.
    Hey Teapot, do you happen to know python? I'm building a proxy and can't figure out what's wrong.

    Type something like: [type]electric[/type]. Replace 'electric' in the middle with whatever type you want.

    Signs I'm getting old: I'm really excited because I just bought a new mattress...
    Well, its my second year here on Charms, i remember the good old days when everybody worked together to make projects like SNaS. Ahh the good old days. Also, turns out i joined on April Fools Day...

    Pretty sure you and I are only the ones who still work on stuff together. And I mean actually, 'work.'
    Would you mind educating me on the way the staffing system works on here? I've always been curious about how people become moderators, so I decided to ask (and yes, also because I want to know if I can have a shot at it)
    Teapot
    Teapot
    It's also worth emphasising that staffing here is not something to be taken lightly – all the staff treat their duties as a part-time job, with major responsibilities and a commitment to do the right thing by the site and its members. It's not something you can just do for fun.

    Especially the second point, it's exactly what I always thought would be the best way to hope for a role as a moderator, as something you can't exactly fake, it's either you're a good member of the community, or you're not

    Hi Teapot! Mind if you could offer some advice on something? If I think a piece of artwork has been stolen, how do I find out if it actually is and then what do I do about it? Thanks :)
    Hi, please don't give me a warning but I seem to have 2 accounts and I don't know how it is called: @Moonlight_umbreon and so I will try and remove it, thankyou, sorry

    ... So, you've spawned a second account, pretended to be a different person, and now you're admitting to it knowing full well that this is a bannable offense?

    Apologizing after breaking the rules does not excuse you, I'm afraid. Unless another staff member decides to intervene on your behalf, your accounts have been merged and read only'd as would be the case for anyone else who breaks that particular rule.
    Hey. I have a question. I think I already have an answer (My thoughts), But I want to ask you. When you're updating your status, why can you only put in 140 characters?
    Teapot

    Technical limitation. It'll go away eventually, as part of a larger site change.

    Hey, Teapot. I was wondering if you could change my birth date on 'Charms to my correct one? If you can, it's August 18, 2001.
