I can post something under the boards here fine but the 3 Pokemon boards I'm on they always move my question to where it's barely seen. How can it be seen with 200+ pages?! !! ! SHEESH! I have one simple question about creating a team OR leveling a Pokemon or something simple but it gets moved to a 200+ page thread to die in the ether SHEESH! ENOUGH already! I can't enjoy asking questions and getting a quick simple answer as I can on WP it's so annoying!! !! !

Sometimes I even feel that way about WP...though I haven't been in the "off topic" forum in a very long time, the "games" forum has always been a lot smaller and easier to manage...and has been a lot slower lately than it used to be.

Why not ask the question here? Someone that is familiar with Pokemon might be able to answer it, and it wont get lost in the mess of posts that we do not have.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. Bugs me. It's really the only interest I share with anyone on this forum, and going to more "general" gaming forums is usually just a mess, because yeah, they're too crowded and too fast. But this place has just been so freaking slow...

It's a shame what happened to Gamefaqs.com, those forums are so pathetic nowadays.

They got "cleaned up" a long time ago. It used to be better in that there was more forum discussion archived for various old games. There was always a lot of garbage and obscenity but the clean-up threw out the baby with the bathwater. Now its just a sandblasted wasteland of nothing, and the community is just as bad as it ever was.

A) use Serebii.net

B) post your question and I should be able to answer it.

I share a lot of interests here, but I feel like browsing the "off topic" and "general autism" forums takes too much of my time, and it's too many new people posting the same things.

Also, I know if I even peeked my head inside of the music forum, my snobbery would just alienate me from everyone immediately @_@

...not that I don't ooze snobbery on the games forum from time to time...

Never been super interested in checking out the "movies" forum...no real reason why.

That sounds like a lot of forums I've been to >_<

Half the time, they ban some troll who was actually the only interesting thing happening there...or maybe I'm just weird.

Ya I found rudeness on Gamefaqs I think I'll avoid its Pokemon boards they are RUDE JERKS! They insisted focusing on which pokemon you want to use to do IV breeding AKA to get the best stats you have to have 31 in certain stats so you have to breed and make A LOT of egg babies with breeding BUT if creating eggs for say a Pikachu is a waste of my time (since Pikachu in game SUCKS!) Than I don't want to breed 50+ eggs! They insisted choose your pokemon first then breed but IMO you should find out which pokemon complement each other vs. choosing a s**t pokemon such as Pikachu. Thanks glad I'm not the only one that sees some boards as WAY TOO BUSY!

It's not just Gamefaqs...

Many people are into competitive Pokemon training, which they take a tad to serious for my liking.
Though to get best stats naturally, you need to IV and move breed your Pokemon
Also ability and natures do impact stat growth as well.

Though to their defense, there is a national Pokemon Championship Tournament that has a $1 Million dollar cash prize.
