View Full Version : I've always wondered

Legend
Administrators | Assistants | Banned Users | Moderators | Super Moderators | Users Awaiting Email Confirmation
That's the setup of a part of "what's going on" a the bottom of the main page. I wonder a few things.
First, what the point of the legend thing? Yes, there is a legend posted above the text. But I also wonder what the point of that is since the rest of the pokemon on the side are not legends. Looks weird and inconcistent.
Second, there is that list of all the different types of members here and based on how the forums have run baiscally since I cam remember, you could click those kinds of things and see who was what. But they aren't hyperlinked so you can't. So what the point of them.
And finally, I don't see what the point of having banned users and users awaiting email confirmation on that list is. A lot of people might care who's banned but it's usually people wanting to know that because it's their friend and in that case all they have t odo is search the name. And of course if you can't remember the name, that's not a very good friend.
I also don't see the point on the member awaiting emails because I'm pretty sure they know and it doesn't really matter to anyone but them. And the wait is not that long in most cases so seems pointless.
So my idea is removing the thing about the Legend and putting the pokemon that's like the rest of the sub-forums which I think might change based on your skin. If not then it's just wobby and it should stay that way.
Also, I think that the line up of the different members list should be hyperlinked and look more like this:
Administrators | Assistants | Members | Moderators | Super Moderators
Just my opinion but I think it makes more sense.
it means as legend of some kind of map , not like a legend poke

I think they are all default groups. And default groups can't be removed, but I maybe wrong.
I agree with the idea about removing Users Awaiting Email but not really about the Banned Users. Removing the Email thing would be great because usually most people get their email right away and log in. So that option is only there for like 2 min (max). They should keep the Banned Users though because say a person really wanted to talk to someone about maybe a trade. But if they see that person is banned, they'll know and well, move on. That was a little hard to understand... do you get it?
So anyway, I give this entire idea an eight out of ten. You got awesome thoughts Ichigo! <3

There's a legendary poke right about the text and there no such things as legends being found on maps. People can argue Mewtwo but that thing is so common I would venture to say it's doesn't count.
abhira I'm pretty sure those can be messed around with. I've never seen that kind of thing not tampered with and hyperlinked on a v-bull forum.
I don't know Ally. You make a good point but chances are that someone who's banned probably cheated to get pokes and trading with a cheater is never a good thing. Plus someone else is likely to have what your looking for even if it's a different dela than you are looking for from a now banned trainer.
Well now that they are banned the person wanting to trade with them now knows to stay away from them. :)

Okay yeah, you got me there. For that reason It might be a good idea to keep banned users up there but I think it'd be better if they did it in a "wall of shame" format like it used to be.

You're mixing reality with pokemon games >>

and those banned users are banned from the forum , not the game
Well, sorry but I don't think we really need to embarrass them that much really. It'd be a little mean to do that, wouldn't you think?
But I agree with your new kind of Legend idea! :3

Sorry but not only is that going way to far making you look foolish but I trust anything wiki says about as much as I'd trust Cheney with a gun and my face.

I tell you, you are one sweet sounding girl. I get a feeling of sweet and whole hearted innocence from your posts. But the wall was funny if you ever saw it.

you are the one that is looking foolish here , for not taking a point and butting your own not-so-smart thoughts up to screen
Thanks Ichigo :) And was it on the old forums?

Wow, quick to get mad aren't you? Might want to make what your saying more clear next time becuase that's definetly foolish.
its pretty clear to ppl , that actually have a normal thought process
Sorry to interfere, but Loki he was just saying that he hates wiki. no need to call him foolish.

Considering I have ADHD and a working memory disorder and a few other mental defects that you likely know next to nothing about, that's probably true. My thought process would be different than the norm. Not to mention that on a site where people often talk about map pokemon and legendaires being found on such maps in none other than the ideas forum, one normally, would think that is what you were saying. Things change given the place and given what goes on in said place. So thinking "Map" and "pokemon" as "Map pokemon" is a "normal" way to think here.
no it isn't since 2 ppl posted nothing including map pokemon and yet you seem to think otherwise
@Ally - this isnt what he meant
Then why are you arguing with him over what he thinks? He thought differently and so did you.

Just tell me on thing do you see the words Map, legend and poke in this post: it means as legend of some kind of map , not like a legend poke
Cause I do. Easy mistake. Cause sure, it might say not somewhere along the line there but it doesn't say, not legendary pokemon on maps. It says not like a legend poke. Which the poke happens to be. Next time, be more clear on what you mean. And if you don't have anything to contribute, please leave.
Then why are you arguing with him over what he thinks? He thought differently and so did you.
It's called online pride and it's sad. It's why most arguements start.
Loki it was just a mistake. now lets move on!
So yeah Ichigo I rate your idea 8/10! <3
Lets hope the Email thing gets approved. Good luck!

Dictionary.com, Legend doesn't relate to just Pokemon.
