Dracour AI chatbot... without my consent!
Posted a year agoSo someone's created an AI chatbot of Dracour... without my consent.
2 of them even!
I have no affiliation with these and want them removed.
For whatever reason you can't contact the creators on the site(s) so seems I can't ask for that directly, I'm just posting this request on my social media's as my commissioned art was used for the AI chatbots so likely came from a follower somewhere.
If you made these bots, please take them down.

"Jealous about art" rant
Posted 5 years agoI've now had two people block me out of art based reasons and one person get aggressive about it. One person blocked because “You never get any art with me” and another because “We planned a comm together ages ago but you keep pushing it back” (Which I did this time because just got a big comm and big car expenses so kinda out of money). The aggressive one was because “You're always showing off your art it's just making me jealous why are you always showing your art how comes (insert artist) always draws you....” (despite showing it IN AN ART BASED CHANNEL)
I get art as a stress relief, I'm a sociable person and want to go out to the pub (once actually safe and not how it is currently) and hating that I cannot meet up with friends once or twice a week like I used to, and there's only so much online that can be done with them, and working full time as a manager of a food retail store has definitely taken its toll but have tried to hide that online. Commissioning some art for me gets me excited to see it myself and the reaction from others, helps me take my mind off stuff.
Most of the art I get will involve a friend of mine, usually a little gift alongside just getting art for me. I get an idea I think “This person would like this”, and then decide if I should get it or not. Yes some people are in them more often but that's because I speak to them a lot and the ideas come usually during that (I get what I was teasing them with most of the time).
If we're splitting a comm, I want to talk with you properly to get it exact for us both so we both get exactly what we want, can choose artist between us and both have input. So if I get a random piece but not the split comm agreed then it's because we are yet still to have a full agreement. Random pieces I get are on the spot and as I am paying for it all and want to make it a surprise (more fun that way), then there is no planning and I run the risk of them not liking it which I fully accept as a loss if not. So if I don't get to people right away, be patient, lets discuss it fully instead of expecting me to just “get it done” like my more random pieces.
I'm not rich, I still have to budget in comms monthly and usually end up going way over and nothing goes into savings or I even end up spending more than I take in (this month I ended with £500 or so less than I started with), so if I can't get art with you then be prepared to wait until I can.
Why do people draw me? I COMM THEM! Sure every so often I get a bit of gift art but most of the time it's a “revenge pic” from a previous gift I got them. I will admit I've had quite a bit of gift art recently but if they like drawing me because (quote: "You're fun to draw as you let me fuck about with Dracour" which I say to everyone I comm) then why is that my fault? I talk to people a lot, chat with artists in their communities, I'm active in servers... I never expect anything and am more than grateful if I do. I don't want to feel guilty because someone gave me gift art.
TL;DR
Art is my stress relief which I cannot always afford, I get it with people I think would like it and usually someone I was chatting with where the idea came up, and I cannot help if I get gift art.
I do not want my stress relief to end up causing me stress! I could just stop and save myself a bunch of hassle and money, but I don't want to do that as I like gifting to others like most of my comms are.
If you're jealous over art I get or unhappy about it, either keep it to yourself, ask me not to post my art to you (server's I'll always post in, that's the point of them), or just block me and save us both the stress.
Have a good day.

Imagine a pokemon game where....
Posted 6 years ago1. You never saw yours or your opponents level or HP bar. You wouldn't know if you were overpowered or underpowered for each and every battle, wouldn't know if you or your enemy were low on health and only needed a small attack or not to save PP. Maybe like little character differences like Final Fantasy Mystic quest style to show if they're half way damaged or not to give a clue at most and looking a little bit more like actually hurt.
2. The whole map was open from the start. Nothing blocking your path (except things blocking you from battling elite 4 (or whatever it would be) and stuff like that which needs to follow rules to do. You could end up going to places with pokemon way stronger than you are or face gyms in different orders, but it meant you got to choose and find your own path through the game.
3. Not told if moves are effective or not. The pokedex and knowing what pokemon are what type and what moves are effective is all you need to work it out yourself.
4. Potions or items could not be used in battle. Berries maybe and held items are all good, but using a potion/revive/full heal and such would not be possible. Getting in the middle of a pokemon battle to use a potion is risky after all.
5. You have to eat and pokemon centers cost money. You have to buy yourself and your pokemon food to keep them healthy and if not they get weaker or start on lower health, and using a pokemon center would cost some (not much) money to help cover their costs and so you don't overuse them just to refill 1/4 of one pokemons health. Though you can also let some of your pokemon perform "jobs" within the cities to earn extra money so it's not just from battles.
6. There were more than one "rival gang/evil team"... and you could potentially join them! They might come with perks such as free pokeballs or extra EXP, or you just agree with their actions, and doing so would alter the story depending on your chosen path. Of course they'd likely lead to bad endings though....
7. Legendary pokemon were TOUGH! Rather than getting a free legendary in the middle of the game, or getting a high level post game that was barely any harder to catch, or not even that strong so wouldn't likely be used.... they would be extremely high leveled and maybe even OP! Catching them would be like trying to fight a superboss and take so much effort that if you did eventually catch it... you'd never *need* to use it as you would already be strong enough for anything in the game.
8. The game would know if you "quit out" of a battle by turning the console off. Lets not make a big deal out of it, maybe just a monetary loss and pokemon still hurt from the battle, or if you reset because couldn't catch a pokemon then you'd still have the chance to try again but lost the pokeballs used in trying.
9. Once you became champion, you would have others come to challenge you. Others would want to be the next champion after all, so you would have to challenge them to keep the title, and they would get stronger each time. Of course you'd get perks to being the champion so there's reason to try and keep it rather than let it be taken away.
............... yeah I'd hate it too

Posted 6 years agoNot the Sonic character you nerd!!
Gimme those long thick strong squishy powerful floofy or smooth tails which are so big or long and powerful that they're basically OP!
If there's no tail-lovers group on telegram where peeps can show coiling pics or squeezes or whatever tail based then I need to make one

I'm not an anime watcher and I just watched Jojo....
Posted 6 years agoFirst of all to get things clear, I have only seen a few animes; Cowboy bebop (enjoyed), space dandy (loved), Future diary (boring), Hellsing ultimate (only as I saw abridged first, preferred the abridged), and maybe a few films. So not exactly nothing but not much at all. Second, I watched dubbed because I don't like subs. Third, this is all personal opinions only.
Season 1: Glad I got pressured into watching. It was entertaining, had twists and an interesting concept and plot. There was good growth of characters and it felt fun to play along with what creative solution they have for a given problem. Now it still has that anime trope I hate where 2 seconds pass but you get 2 minutes of dialog or thoughts spoken. I get why it exists but I don't like it personally. It's hard to escape spoilers and memes these days so some things I already knew, but overall I enjoyed it and didn't be like I thought it would which would be DBZ but not quite as OTT and less clothing.
Season 2: Pretty good, continued on from the first in a way. Really big focus on growth and learning, again great character development throughout. It did have a lot of feeling of YuGiOh Abridged with "You've just fallen into my trap" .... "No you have fallen into mine!" .... "no u". Now yes the victor is meant to win and you know this as a viewer, but the moment one thing was said I lost interest because I knew what would happen, just not "how". This one probably had my favourite characters in it, but thought 1 was better.
Season 3: Awful. What happened?!? Nothing at all like 1 or 2. Less OP weapons than hamon which felt limitless whereas stands mean set to specific strengths and weaknesses... but overall not as entertaining personally. There was no character growth either, little if any (also the characters seemed much more bland and boring). This season to me felt like filler episodes of Pokemon; on way to destination you battle a random guy with a new thing not seen before. You could almost watch the whole season in any episode order and it would almost be the same result. Dio's back! Great I loved him..... oh he had like 3 min screentime the whole season... no thanks. It had some really funny moments, but overall extremely forgettable.
Aaaaaaand I stopped after that. From what I have heard it continues more like season 3 than 1 or 2, and if so I don't want to watch it. Now to move onto the next anime I'm peer pressured into watching.
Commence the hate!

Character identity crisis
Posted 6 years agoI am no longer sure if I want to "Be Dracour" any longer. I am not my character and never have been, he is just that; a character, but in chats or groups I tend to casually talk as if playing as my character for entertainment (That and when in groups it seems a norm to do).
I guarantee I am not Dracour, he is arrogant and jerkish, I however am only slightly arrogant and mildly jerkish.
Now there are a lot of people who "know" I am not like Dracour; you tell Dracour no and he'd do it anyway, you tell me no and I'll stop no questions asked and not do it again. I have done my best to let people know he's an "unwilling" char thus if you say no in char he'd go ahead anyway, but if you say no OOC and then it will not be done. Complicated but these are some of the problems with only liking "Unwilling" scenarios (honestly, willing scenarios are as bad as sex rp's IMO and would never do either).
The problem here though is that those who don't know this about me always see me as a god damn jerk! I've been called far worse than that, called OP, said people won't get involved in chats with me in them or even outright left groups because I am active in them.... all because I only like unwilling and play a jerk character that doesn't spend 5 minutes hugging everyone and doing a friendly nom when asked per say...
And I gotta say, this is really getting to me now.
I know some people don't like unwilling, force, control or "My char is more powerful than yours" and those who know me would laugh if they heard anyone say that Dracour is more powerful than anyone else. Having a char take control is kinda needed for unwilling scenarios, and I always follow the rule of "If Dracour can do this to you then you can do this to Dracour", I keep it as fair as I can. If I do something by force then I won't get annoyed if it's dodged, avoided, parried, or even ignored if not wanted.
Now don't get me wrong, not everyone is like this. I've had quite a few people tell me that Dracour is one of their favourite chars as he actually does do force and teases and shenanigans. A lot of people like unwilling scenarios and force involved, and they like the fact that if Dracour does something to someone then he "accepts" (loosely said because he'd still be unwilling acting for it) the same thing in return done to him making a more fair playing field as it were. If he sits on you then you can sit on him. Simple enough really.
Plus the whole "Dracour acts as pred only as that's the most effective form of unwilling prey, but people still assume he's pred only and thus never do anything in return despite me saying they're more than welcome as I am a switch, prey preference even, but still after being said it's still Dracour has control 97% of the time" .... which kinda can't be helped as it seems the majority of SFW only rp'ers like me are prey preference or on the subby side and also do not enjoy being the pred/dom/one in control. Being the pred only all the time kinda gets boring and very demotivating for me to want to RP any more as I know exactly what is going to happen.
I just don't want it to be where I go into group chats and either some people leave the active conversation because "Oh great Dracour got involved", which is honestly now how it's starting to feel.
TL;DR:
Dracour is a jerk, I am not. People think I am Dracour, I feel like I don't want to be Dracour any more.

My problems being an unwilling character
Posted 8 years agoPsst, a TLDR section is at the bottom....
First of all this is not a journal of rant or calling someone out for doing something I disagree with, it's about things I have experienced 'because' I don't like willing vores/smushes and other such things and only like unwilling (or fake unwilling where they genuinely pretend to dislike it).
I am an unwilling prey/sub, and when being dom/pred I only enjoy the unwilling.
One big thing is that whilst I only like unwilling, it means the character is unwilling, not the other party involved. If the other party doesn't like something then I won't do it, plain and simple. However if they like/want it but their character doesn't, then I'm gonna do it. I'm talking unwilling character, not unwilling party I am RP'ing with.
I don't mind willing vore art, though not my preference, if the scenario is good/funny and the art is good then I still enjoy it. Because I like the art though it doesn't mean I want to RP it. So no I don't entirely HATE willing vore and such, it's just something I don't enjoy RP'ing or want to. Just like how there's other things I don't want to RP such as NSFW, digestion and (Won't list all my dislikes), and same way you may not like to RP vore or be a pred because you only like being prey.... why can't I only like unwilling? Asking me to do willing vore would be like asking me to do a sex RP... it just isn't going to happen I'm afraid.
Countless times I have people going "You'd like it if you try it" or "You can at least do willing once" .... I have tried it, I didn't like it, found it boring super quickly. Whilst that could easily be a bad RP partner, I've never found the scenario or act of the vore fun during it. If I followed that rule to try willing vore despite how I don't like it, then someone else could say the same about NSFW and say "You'd like it if you try it" whereas I know I don't. So many saying I'm not giving it a chance or that I'm being selfish, and yeah while it is selfish, so is asking me to pander to your needs and change what I like and my character design just to please you too.
Other people have straight up ignored or even deleted me as soon as I mention I don't like willing vore (which corresponds with my last point, everyone says I should be willing but as soon as I say I'm not, they won't give unwilling a chance for the same reason I say I won't give willing another chance; they don't find it fun or don't know how to do it).
I know unwilling vore can be mean, it's "I don't want to be ate" *eats anyway* kind of thing, but it's a character, it's not me. You want me to actually stop, say so out of character (and make it obvious, it can be hard to tell sometimes). I try to give hints such as saying "naht" when an action is fine but say "not" when as a player I dislike it. Best I can say is for others to please realise that I'm only playing a character and don't judge me as a person because I play a mean character.
I know unwilling can be confusing, player unaware when the character is being unwilling but the RP is enjoyed, or the player actually doesn't want it done. It's an uneasy feeling not knowing whether what you're doing is enjoyable as the character reaction displays the opposite. It's not easy.
Being unwilling only, I'm definitely an "I gotta be in the mood to RP with him" person, thus ignored quite often or flat out told "not in an unwilling mood" . Which I have to say is perfectly reasonable, I have moods too where I don't want to be pred so when someone comes up to me with their unwilling char prey, I sometimes say I'm not in a pred mood. Only after writing this I realise this whole section here is a bit of a moot point.
I also realise that as unwilling only, someone will come up to me as a pred, I put on an unwilling act, and they suddenly turn to prey instead thinking my unwilling act is genuine thus I must want to be the pred instead. Reading an unwilling character can be confusing and isn't the clearest. Believe me though, if I didn't like something, [I would say it like this in brackets]. Please don't change what you were doing because my character was unwilling towards what was going on.
Other things too like how unwilling forces only some kinds of situations and loses others that only willing can achieve, or that unwilling means that I hate your character for trying (which is totally not true), but this journal is already too long.
TLDR;
1. I'm unwilling prey, pred that only noms unwilling. My character nature and what I like so please don't ask me to change it and be willing which is something I don't like.
2. Character is unwilling, not the player. Has to be same for partner too (I don't want to do things you actually don't like).
3. I am not a bad person or mean myself, again it's to play character.
4. Unwilling is confusing but say out of character it isn't liked and I will stop.
5. I know I'm basically saying "Be unwilling or we can't RP" but just how everyone won't do things they don't enjoy, this is the same for me with this.
6. Unwilling isn't the easiest to work with for both parties, I know this.
7. If I say "Naht" it means you can do it, if I say "Not" then it means I as the player dislike it.
8, 9, 10: DON'T ASK ME TO BE WILLING!!! .... please. :)
First of all this is not a journal of rant or calling someone out for doing something I disagree with, it's about things I have experienced 'because' I don't like willing vores/smushes and other such things and only like unwilling (or fake unwilling where they genuinely pretend to dislike it).
I am an unwilling prey/sub, and when being dom/pred I only enjoy the unwilling.
One big thing is that whilst I only like unwilling, it means the character is unwilling, not the other party involved. If the other party doesn't like something then I won't do it, plain and simple. However if they like/want it but their character doesn't, then I'm gonna do it. I'm talking unwilling character, not unwilling party I am RP'ing with.
I don't mind willing vore art, though not my preference, if the scenario is good/funny and the art is good then I still enjoy it. Because I like the art though it doesn't mean I want to RP it. So no I don't entirely HATE willing vore and such, it's just something I don't enjoy RP'ing or want to. Just like how there's other things I don't want to RP such as NSFW, digestion and (Won't list all my dislikes), and same way you may not like to RP vore or be a pred because you only like being prey.... why can't I only like unwilling? Asking me to do willing vore would be like asking me to do a sex RP... it just isn't going to happen I'm afraid.
Countless times I have people going "You'd like it if you try it" or "You can at least do willing once" .... I have tried it, I didn't like it, found it boring super quickly. Whilst that could easily be a bad RP partner, I've never found the scenario or act of the vore fun during it. If I followed that rule to try willing vore despite how I don't like it, then someone else could say the same about NSFW and say "You'd like it if you try it" whereas I know I don't. So many saying I'm not giving it a chance or that I'm being selfish, and yeah while it is selfish, so is asking me to pander to your needs and change what I like and my character design just to please you too.
Other people have straight up ignored or even deleted me as soon as I mention I don't like willing vore (which corresponds with my last point, everyone says I should be willing but as soon as I say I'm not, they won't give unwilling a chance for the same reason I say I won't give willing another chance; they don't find it fun or don't know how to do it).
I know unwilling vore can be mean, it's "I don't want to be ate" *eats anyway* kind of thing, but it's a character, it's not me. You want me to actually stop, say so out of character (and make it obvious, it can be hard to tell sometimes). I try to give hints such as saying "naht" when an action is fine but say "not" when as a player I dislike it. Best I can say is for others to please realise that I'm only playing a character and don't judge me as a person because I play a mean character.
I know unwilling can be confusing, player unaware when the character is being unwilling but the RP is enjoyed, or the player actually doesn't want it done. It's an uneasy feeling not knowing whether what you're doing is enjoyable as the character reaction displays the opposite. It's not easy.
Being unwilling only, I'm definitely an "I gotta be in the mood to RP with him" person, thus ignored quite often or flat out told "not in an unwilling mood" . Which I have to say is perfectly reasonable, I have moods too where I don't want to be pred so when someone comes up to me with their unwilling char prey, I sometimes say I'm not in a pred mood. Only after writing this I realise this whole section here is a bit of a moot point.
I also realise that as unwilling only, someone will come up to me as a pred, I put on an unwilling act, and they suddenly turn to prey instead thinking my unwilling act is genuine thus I must want to be the pred instead. Reading an unwilling character can be confusing and isn't the clearest. Believe me though, if I didn't like something, [I would say it like this in brackets]. Please don't change what you were doing because my character was unwilling towards what was going on.
Other things too like how unwilling forces only some kinds of situations and loses others that only willing can achieve, or that unwilling means that I hate your character for trying (which is totally not true), but this journal is already too long.
TLDR;
1. I'm unwilling prey, pred that only noms unwilling. My character nature and what I like so please don't ask me to change it and be willing which is something I don't like.
2. Character is unwilling, not the player. Has to be same for partner too (I don't want to do things you actually don't like).
3. I am not a bad person or mean myself, again it's to play character.
4. Unwilling is confusing but say out of character it isn't liked and I will stop.
5. I know I'm basically saying "Be unwilling or we can't RP" but just how everyone won't do things they don't enjoy, this is the same for me with this.
6. Unwilling isn't the easiest to work with for both parties, I know this.

A little rant about RP's that'll prob be deleted soon
Posted 8 years agoThis is not to everyone, only towards those who are sub/prey/switches in RP's.
I am getting a bit fed up with everyone expecting me to be the dom/pred the whole time just because I'm a switch that has a very preddy character. I too prefer being sub, just like the majority of switches it seems. I know that's hard considering my three main chars:
Dracour: Very arrogant, thinks top pred about, very unwilling to be prey.
Ruby: Very very large, noms and accidental smushes and such because careless.
PD: Got the vines, belly and tail for the noms.
Now I know from that it seems like "Oh all three main chars are preds then" or "If he's playing Ruby then no way I'd nom her so I'll be the prey" kinda thing, but the one I get most is... "Dracour's trying to nom me, I'll struggle but let him".
I don't want any of that! Sure I know being a pred to Ruby or PD isn't easy considering their size or abilities, but as for Dracour.... he's arrogant and preddy all the time for an "UNWILLING ACT", he'll claim he's top pred to be proved wrong, he'll sit on you an be arrogant about it so you get revenge and do something back. He is far from dom only.
It's getting annoying when people who claim they're switches or said they'd try being the one in control, just end up being the prey/sub only the whole time, coming to chat with me and EXPECT me to be the one that does something to them. I've recently been getting so many chats on Skype/Discord where people start a chat and right away expect me to be doing something to them, and if I do nothing about it and wait for something in return, they either stop or go *Goes to find Ruby instead*.
Recently people who have been doing nothing but acting sub/prey to me every time they speak, I've either talked but did nothing expecting them to get the hint, or outright told them that I'm getting fed up constantly being the pred/dom all the time. Did it work? If it did I wouldn't be writing this journal.
So yeah, selfish rant about "People don't do things I like and only do things they like, so I'm only going to be doing things I like now".
If you are one of my few friends who actually do be pred towards me or pawstomp/buttsmush/whatever to my chars WITHOUT me hinting it or asking, and do so because they want to, then ignore this journal.

Anyone doing cheap ref sheets?
Posted 8 years agoYes this is another "Someone draw me cheap art please" journals because as with many, money is tight. However I really do need three ref sheets (two minimum) and considering that they can cost quite a bit for one, three would be quiiiite costly.
Therefore I don't really want super highly detailed ref sheets that cost like £50-100 to make (heck even £20 each would mean £60 if I got three) or the very cheap copypaste-recolour ref sheets that aren't that accurate or detailed or unique. I'm looking for ref sheets that will show what my chars look like, their colours, their sizes accurately and maybe show a special ability of theirs (For example, Dracour's flexibility to coil or something, even show a weakness maybe, will have to think of that).
Here are the three characters I would like (of course more detail will be given later):
Dracour:
Long bodied, wingless green noodle dragon with lighter green underbelly, two horns and arrowshaped tailtip. 10ft tall up to head when standing on all fours, longer length (need to work that out accurately yet), thin and slender body. Very simple design. Only fat from noms.
Best example is http://www.furaffinity.net/view/20923503/ without the armour, or http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4412094/ but check my gallery there are many more examples.
Ruby:
Fat and pudgy mostly pink dragoness with large feather wings, two big horns, thick tail. 60ft tall up to head when on all fours, not much longer as not a noodle dragon but more so standard feral. Big belly and butt for squishings and a very clean maw for noms.
Best examples are either http://www.furaffinity.net/view/21056540/ , http://www.furaffinity.net/view/14497510/ or (one with her whole body) http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16351747/ .
PD:
Feral dragoness made entirely out of plantmatter (leaves/vines/grass/flowers and such), large leafwings that can wrap around herself for disguise as a large bulb plant. Flytrap tail (of course), no horns, and vines that emit from her back like a Venasaur for example. 15ft tall up to head. Both tail and belly are prey storage, and she constantly emits a perfume scent that is often left upon those she noms.
No examples as no art with her yet, sorry.
Yes I did purposely end each description with "noms", heh.
Nothing more I can say really I think, will add more to this journal if need be. I would be really appreciative of anyone who offers the commission themselves or knows someone that does them cheaply.
Thank you for reading this far, you're now safe from noms.

Who wants another Pokemon Moon personal review?
Posted 9 years agoWorst Pokemon game yet.
.... Still here?
Well here's the things I liked:
-Rotom Pokedex is sassy and funny.
-Pokemon designs and pokedex entries are fun to read. (Salazzle for example, or ice Vulpix, even the He-Man Dugtrio).
-Near the end of the game, the baddie is a psychopath and watching the interactions there was cool.
-Added more Pokemon to ride with different abilities. (I don't include Charizard in this, read below for why).
AND THAT'S IT!
Now for what I didn't like... get ready for long list:
-Hau.
-Felt way too linear compared to other Pokemon games.
-Cutscene/dialog every 3 goddamn minutes!
-Made even easier with move selection telling you what were best moves to pick.
-Absolutely no drive for your character to continue on quest, it's always just "Might as well carry on with these trial things".
-Finished the game but basically can't remember a single location, nothing was that memorable.
-Character is so gormless and dumb! I picked the girl so don't know about the boy, but her facial expression basically never changed from the dead-eyed smile no matter the situation, and whenever I got to pick an answer to give she would only answer with something that makes her dumb or something that makes her gullable.
-Trials were not fun, they were either just plain boring or when they could be fun they made too easy (for example, the spot the difference one, could have been fun if they didn't make it blaringly obvious what the right answer was).
-Some of the battles just seemed to take quite a bit of time for the animations to start despite everything selected, may just be that I was using an older 3DS and not the new one, but that was just so slow sometimes I thought the game crashed.
-Flying on a Charizard looked awesome in the trailer, especially if it was going to be similar to AS/OR.... but NOOOOOO they had to make it a standard fly again like the other games. Why make it a freakin' Charizard if you can't even fly around on it properly? Just make it a damn Pidgey if you're gonna do that! Don't tempt me into something cool and give me the same lukewarm stuff from earlier games!
Got so bored and disappointed playing this that I almost gave up. Would have been the first Pokemon game I wouldn't have completed the main objective to if I didn't keep thinking "It's got to get better eventually", but I was wrong.
Oh and to add salt to my pre-order wound, the figurine that came with it was horribly painted with quite a few mistakes on it. I was horribly disappointed when I opened the packet and saw the mispainted figurine.
According to review sites and comments though, I am ENTIRELY wrong about this as many are saying it's one of the best Pokemon games to date! So I cannot wait to hear just how wrong I am about this...

Pokemon games: Who agrees with me?
Posted 9 years agoJust my personal opinion about 2 aspects of pokemon games, wondering who else thinks the same or not and why.
First off: The rival{s}.
The new pokemon games 'need' rivals similar to that from the first 2 generations (red/blue/yellow/gold/silver/crystal) because those actually felt accomplishing to defeat. They got in your way, taunted you, always trying to one up you and generally make you WANT to defeat them. All rivals since then have been friendly friends and like "Oh I wanna see how good you've got so lets battle"... to me that doesn't make me want to defeat them and feel happy that I did, they just feel like an obstacle used to give you a little more of a challenging battle. It's boring! Give me a rival I want to defeat, not one that just gets in the way to add time.
Sure rivals can be friends, for example in the anime Ash and Gary were friends however were always trying to be better than the other when pokemon was involved, it seemed like they were enemies and they used that to motivate each other to get better (though not too obvious in the first few seasons). Similar in the first gen of games, ??? is your rival but not a bad guy or anything, he just got in your way always claiming to be better making you want to defeat him and feel good when you do. Second gen was very similar and beating him made you feel accomplished. Everyone since who've just been friends with you and wanting to challenge you to see how good you got or whatever, so boring, especially when they lose and go "Wow you're good" rather than anything that makes you want to even face them in battle again.
Second: Difficulty.
Now I'm not the best pokemon player by any means, not even close. Challenge me online and I'd get my ass kicked. I know nothing about EV's (originally when people said EV training I thought that meant that an Eevee could get very powerful, not kidding), little about building a great team or even how to best use items and such.... however when I play the games I can just blast through them using only my starter pokemon and maybe 1 more, without any grinding really at all, and have no real problems with any battle at all. Few exceptions such as Red from Gen 2, Cynthia, and a few others where I did have to grind or level up some more.
People have to agree with me that the new generations are easy as hell, they even give you strong pokemon for free! So I want pokemon to have a harder mode for experienced players. Sure have a normal mode for people just starting to help them ease into the game and what to do, but once beaten then have a harder mode where rival levels are harder, AI are smarter, stuff like that! Sure at the end of the games you can battle the elite 4 again and they're stronger and such, but that's a very small bonus after beating the game. I want to play the whole game in a harder mode, something that gives it at least a small challenge throughout. Beating Red from gen 2 was a hard thing to do when younger, and when I finally beat him it was the best moment in any pokemon game I've had, it was a challenge and something we've not seen since then. We need more of that!
So TL;DR: Better rival who we want to defeat, and make the games harder or give them a harder mode.

Skype etiquette: Online means online, right?
Posted 9 years agoIf that is the case... why do people have the online status when asleep/too busy/out/at work/generally away from Skype for a long period of time?
It makes no sense!!
I am honestly getting fed up with people who have the online status and yet asleep or at work or whatever, it takes less than 5 seconds to change status, Skype even has a setting that changes it automatically after a set period of time away, and it's just general courtesy.
What's even worse is when they have their status to online, you speak to them thinking they're online, then hours later they message back saying "Why did you speak when I was asleep?" and then start moaning at you when you say "Because your status was online so I assumed you were there."
In my eyes:
Online/Available - There and able to talk
Busy - There but will be slow if a respose
Away - Not there but may be later/soon
Offline - Not there
I know people like to keep computer and Skype on while asleep so it's easier and faster to get back on, but changing status isn't time consuming. I admit that when people get called away suddenly then there's no time, or if they 'pass out' then again there's no time either.... but as said in first part of this journal there's a setting that'll change it for you (and if people pass out as much as they claim then they should really go to a doctor, not healthy if half my contact list seems to pass out every day at random without even able to say "I'm getting tired" before they 'pass out').
This is just like using BRB's and Bye's; It helps the other person know there won't be a reply. It's just common decency to tell people you're leaving/can't talk while in the middle of a chat/RP, otherwise they're just left hanging there wondering where the hell you went! It's just plain rude. You wouldn't do that to someone in real life so why do it to someone online?
TL;DR -
Don't appear online when not online
Use BRB's and Bye's when leaving.
