    Not as easily as on other places – you can post an image URL inside [img] tags, like so: [img]https://pokecharms.com/data/avatars/s/0/1.jpg[/img]

    Teapot are you allowed to do an RP based off a fan-made Pokémon game?

    If you have permission, yes. Otherwise no.

    Oh nevermind found the paper where I kept it thank you anyway for tolerating my actions
    I'll expand on this a bit later to explain it properly, but: Net Neutrality being repealed doesn't mean you'll lose access to the internet.

    Thank you for all of this information. This really helped me to understand better. :)

    TBH The FCC trying to repeal Net Neutrality doesn’t scare me. It just grinds my gears. In a sense it’s disregarding democracy in favor of capitalism. The majority of the US have spoken up about how they want Net Neutrality around, and Ajit won’t listen. He just wants to line his pockets. But on the bright side maybe now people will send some of the Trump hate to Ajit instead of it all to Trump.

    I’ve been following this whole scenario for a while, and while Net Neutrality isn’t that old, it’s still more fair and widely used. In this day and age, it should be classified as a public utility as many people’s lives and businesses are built upon the Internet. Removing Net Neutrality hurts them and creates room for a Monolpoly on certain sites later.
    *A Neourk could be seen dressed in his fancy uniform while holding his Luger P08, as he speaks into his translator* Umm... s- so... is there anything about having weapons in the world of Pokémon? (Just needing to ask this since there's been weapons in the old animes and I would like to clear this matter as soon as possible.)
    Teapot
    Teapot
    We don't have any rules on weapons, so if you wanted to include them, you could. Of course, if those weapons re going to be used in anger, you will need to tag the RP as having violence in it. :)

    *the Neourk hides his tear gas bomb after reading the list of weapons that are illegal to possess in most areas* Well alright, I could perfectly understand having to tag for violence and such. Thank you for clarifying about the matters of weapons. (The Luger was modified to fire sonic rounds made from compressed air and reloading it is a bit different than usual.)
    Teapot Is it ok if I put a invite link to my discord on charms, if it's in my about me or my signature? I saw in the rules about advising your Youtube in you're about me in there being ok, so I wanted double check to be sure before I do that. thx :)
    Teapot

    Yeah, that’s fine. The advertising rule is just so people don’t spam the forums/Creative Corner with things like that :)

    Hey, this is a little bit of a serious question for you, and you've probably already seen it. What do you think about Net Neutrality?
    Well, the repeal for it?
    What do you think it's going to do to us? And would saying something about it to Congress really going to help?
    I'm a little frightened of it, to be honest...

    I know you live somewhere else, but I'd like to get your thoughts on the subject...

    If you haven't heard what Net Neutrality is, it's basically an act where everybody receives anonymity, free internet, and they are able to look at whatever they want.
    Merciless Medic

    They are going to repeal it in a month, where it's going to allow the internet to be a more profitable place (when money is already being made through it), but also track everyone's movements online and force them to pay for certain daily subscriptions, like "$5 a day to get on Youtube for the entertainment package"...
    Merciless Medic
    Merciless Medic
    People are contacting their governors, their representatives, and even the president himself to stop this repeal. Is it really going to help?
    Hey teapot @Kayla The Steenee can't get on pokecharms it crashes and it freezes her computer for some reason. She thinks it's her internet, any thoughts? :?
    Palusokudo
    Palusokudo
    Could be, she's using windows 10 I'm thinking it's the wifi she using. It might be her college wifi that's being used a lot. But see she can use youtube but not charms. maybe her internet settings. I also asking what kind of device she is using it's a up to date laptop. I'm in a discord server with her if you want that.
    Palusokudo
    Palusokudo
    Yea she just said it could be her wifi, but she also said that the error she got was quote " I tried it Pokecharms was just being super slow and after a few minutes told me Pokecharms was down. And Recent Activity wouldn't load and it said 'This may have been shut down to maintain the server speed as it may be busy at the moment".
    Teapot
    Teapot
    That's so bizarre. O.o I'll investigate and see why Recent Activity might be doing that.
    I have a question: Would it be alright to use Pokemon from the Pokefarm Q site? They don't exactly have stats, abilities, or moves on their Pokemon, so I would be making some for them, but I would like to use their concepts for certain Pokemon, like certain Megas only founded in Pokefarm Q, as well as certain variant Pokemon species and their own fakemons. Would this be plagiarizing?
    Teapot

    I’m afraid it wouldn’t be allowed, sorry. :(

    Darn :/ I understand why this is, and I'm certain that goes with Written Works and Art, so I won't post or do anything regarding the Pokefarm Q site. Thank you for replying, though. :)

    Hey teapot do have to put copyrights in my artwork like "All rights of [character in the game] go to [company]" in description if it not Nintendo related? I am asking because I'm thinking of posting some designs I made in Forza Motorsport.

    You don't strictly have to, no. It's considered good practice, so you may want to anyway, but I wouldn't issue warnings for not doing it.

    Ok, I would do it anyway because I don't want risk anything, thx for the info. :)
    Hey, Teapot~
    So, I wanted to make a regional journey type of RP, but I know from experience that those kinds of things can tend to attract people that could use a lesson in grammar and I want it to be a quality RP. I know I'm going to have to turn down some people if I do this, but I don't exactly know how to do that without crossing a line into blatant rudeness. Do you have any suggestions?
    Teapot
    Teapot
    Just remember: Be polite, be factual, be kind. If you need to reject someone, try saying something like: “Sorry, I can’t approve your application because your writing isn’t up to the standard I’m looking for in this RP.” If you wanted to go the extra mile, you could explain why their writing isn’t up to standard and how they can improve. Hope that helps :)

    Hey, @Teapot ! I hope I'm not bothering you, but I have a quick question. Are collaboration works (when all creators are mentioned) allowed on the Creative Corner? I checked the rules for the Creative Corner and saw nothing...but I wanted to make sure. Thank you for your time! ^^' (also, sorry if this question, or similar questions, have already been asked °^°' )
    Teapot
    Teapot
    I don't think we have anything written down about it, but we tend to allow collaborations if all authors are active on 'Charms and whomever posts the work credits the other authors in each work's summary. :) Generally, just be smart about it – as long as it doesn't look like you're claiming someone else's work as your own, you'll be fine. :)
    And the 666th follower....ME! *creepy laugh*
    Hey Teapot is it better I should edit a written work or upload a better version of it? I'm wondering because the written will be almost similar to one I already uploaded.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    If it's going to be very similar, editing the existing work is a far better option – that way you know people are always going to see the updated, better version. :) If it's a total rewrite or otherwise so different that it could be considered a totally different piece of work, it makes sense to post it afresh, but if it's going to be very similar, editing is better. That make sense? :)

    Hey Teapot? Does the appearance/layout of Pokecharms change on certain devices, or is there a button or something that changes it? I got a new laptop with a detachable keyboard sometime in June, and after being on Pokecharms for a little bit with my laptop the appearance kinda changed.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    The sidebar drops to the bottom when your device is too small to show both at once – that'll probably be your issue. If you can't see the sidebar, just scroll down :)

    Hey, Teapot, I have this friend that likes to write collaborative stories with me and other people, but they're more or less like short RPs where the only rule is it has to make sense. We're starting a new one soon, and I was wondering if I'd be able to post it as a written work(with approval from her, of course).
    Teapot
    Teapot
    I think that's okay, provided your friend is a member on Pokécharms and you credit them in each work's summary. :)

    *??? could be seen crying while knowing it might not be in the new game because of its OP ability* So umm... after hearing what Stellar said, we're not allowed to use any Pokémon we know of until the games are released. Now, I just need to ask... would that go for the scrapped/unused Pokémon too? I know there is at least one that I could get from the brief info and the works I'm putting into it to give it light.
    Le Marsouin

    As for if I'm going to be using it in RPing or fics, I'm not exactly sure if I should use it in RPing because of possible leaking, though I will be more likely to use it in a fic I'm making if it's allowed.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    Alright, so this is a fun situation:

    If it's real and just not out yet, you can't use it until USUM are released in a couple of weeks, then it acts like a normal Pokémon.

    If it's a real unused beta Pokémon, you can use it and it counts as a fan-made Pokémon, so you can use it in fics and in RPs if you have permission.
    Teapot
    Teapot
    If it's a fake Photoshopped image, which it sounds like it is to me, it's actually someone else's work – so as weird as it sounds, you couldn't use it at all!

    Can you send me a picture of the Pokémon in question in a conversation so I can take a look?

    I'm not sure why that happens, to be honest with you. I think it might be a caching issue – hopefully it'll change over later on. :)
    Hey, Teapot. Since Dawn Form Lycanrock has been confirmed, when can we expect it's releace on pokecharms?
    StellarWind Elsydeon

    When it is available in the games and all data about its capabilities etc. are available. That is to say, after Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon are released. Not before that.

    OK thanks. I was just under the impression that it was when it was confirmed.
