1. I've been here since February 2000... I can't remember the exact date, but it was in a different account. (Chikalquil, and before that, ~Quilava~)

2. I was 12, and in grade 7.

3. I'm 15 and in grade 10...

4. Nope, not at all. They're okay, but have gotten really dull... I really miss the old times...

5. Shidorah, though she used to be known as Midnight, and burakii, and a whole lot of stuff. O.o;

[Cheesey]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
I originally registered as Dark Jolteon on the 2nd of November 2000, but I forgot my password to that account, so I signed up as Dark Jolteon again on the 24th September 2001, and I forgot my password to that account as well, so I registered as Cheesey on the 12th March 2003, but a month or two ago I got my register date from 2001 back. O_o;;; Yeah...

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
Back in Nov 2000 I was 11 years old and in Primary 7 I believe.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I'm 14 years old, and I live in Scotland so the school system is different... Here I'm in my 3rd year of High School.

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
Don't really have an opinion on that, since I was inactive on my previous two accounts (I had 55 posts on the first one and 30 on the second). So yeah, I have no idea, really.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
Jay. He has been for several months now. He rocks my socks. =]

[Royal_Goddess_Tina]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?

-The same...

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
- They are basically the same as they were a few months ago, so yeah...

[Silver Ledian]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
Registered on 1st April 2001, so about 2 and three quarter years.

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was in Year 10, age 14

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I'm in Year 13, age 17

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
I still like coming here but it's not as fun as it used to be. The one clear factor is that the popularity of 'Pokémon' has dropped and many members have lost interest...and even though there are non-pokémon forums, unregistered people that don't like pokémon are still not likely to join.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
Rio and David (Pichu Luver and Mastermysterious)...although they don't post as much

[nightcrow]

1. Ummm... 2 and a half years, roughly.
2. I was 12 at the time I believe, and I was in 7th grade. o_o;
3. I'm 15 (turning 16 in 2 weeks) and am a sophomore.
4. Well, I haven't really noticed... if there's nothing interesting to post in, I don't post. :p
5. Nateums. :O

[Little_Pikachu]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
Just over 3 years. I joined on 6th November 2000

I was 18 3/4 and in my third year of college.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I'm 21 3/4 and in my second year of university.

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
They're more fun now because I can ban people.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
... I forget.

[Deus Mortuorum]

1. November 24th, 2000.
2. 12, 7th grade.
3. 15, 10th grade.
4. Hell no. I came back and people were like "stfu" :no:
5. It used to be Clark but he left =(

EDIT - *checks* I'm the 78th highest poster on TPM :o That's not bad out of 11000+ XP

[Aipom Of Doom]

1 - 2 years, 11 months, 6 days.
2 - 12, and in 7th grade, I think :o
3 - 15, and 10th grade :d

2. I was 12 :O I guess I was going between 7th grade and 8th grade.

3. 15, 10th grade.

4. Well, everything is more fun at the beginning. I used to be an RPG person at the beginning until realising not many RPGs were my thing. Yea they are still fun :D, especially now that I go to ummmm

5. I don't have any friends :( Except Ashlea 8-) She is my BEST FRIEND ASHLEA. but really, I don't know x_x someone be my best friend :-*

[Pichu]

1 - Summer of 2001 under neocyndaquil. I was under 'stasis' or 'dormant' at that time, because I was too shy to post. Therefore, no one really who I am. xD
2 - Was going into Grade 12. About 16 years old.
3 - 20 years old. 3rd year.
4 - Yes, but it could be more better if they put in back the pokemon smilies.
5 - *points at avatar* xD

[Mastermysterious]

[Angel Blossom]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?

I've been here since March 5, 2001. That would be 2 years, it'll almost be 3. Time flies by so fast! I can still remember the day I posted for the first time, lol. I asked a question at UBB Help, and introduced myself... Kasumi was the only person to say hi. ;-; *is a dork*

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?

I was thirteen. XD I was in the 7th grade, I think. Meh, I'm really not sure though. I might be correct, since I was 13 and my birthday is in Feb. I joined in March, so.. *stops rambling*

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?

I'm 15 and I'm a sophmore. ;-; It's pretty boring to be a soapie. Soon enough, I'll be a junior, and I'll be wishing I were in K or in the 1st grade, hehehe. :[

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?

I'm VERY sorry to put it this way, but - HELL NO. >_<
If any of you were around in 2000-2001, you'd know how much fun it used to be. We had the funniest debates, most of the cool vets were still around, and the boards were really active. It has not been like that ever since, though. ;-;

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?

My best friend on TPM? I get along well with Kyle (Syberia). He's the coolest guy I know here and he's always there for me to talk to. ^^ I haven't had such a great friend in ages, so.. *high-fives Kyle* =) Another great friend of mine here is Link 10, or Matt. He's a really funny guy and I enjoy talking to him all of the time. Even though people are mean to the guy, I know I'll never be. He's a great guy who doesn't deserve that kind of stuff. 8-)

3) 13 1/2 and in 8th grade

4) I guess. I still get a kick out of RPGs and my new thing - graphics ^_^

5) Uh.... VirtualPlay, probably. He keeps me doing requests when I go into my weekly "Think about quitting" phase ^.^;;

5. Red_Gyarados and Cmdrsalmdr they dont come here anymore, but they were my closest friends.

[Lightning]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
I've been here since... March 2001... but I got this account that August or something because of account problems. o.o
2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was 11 years old and in grade... 6.
3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
Now I'm 14 years old and in grade 9.
4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
No... TPM was at its best a few months after I joined... but it's still okay now. It just lacks the amount of fun it used to have. It kinda died after the ezBoard thing. x.o;
5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
o_o I dunno. I have lots of friends, but I don't think I could pick just one.

Red_Gyarados was a good friend of mines also, until he/she posted a thread in Misc. quite some time ago saying that the person posting on the board didn't exist at all. I dunno what it was...but that person was dared to pretend to be someone on the internet for like a year or so, and the person created was *Red Gyarados*. I dunno if that was a load of cobblers but I felt a bit tricked and very annoyed that a somewhat decent member turned out to be fake :o

[Kyl3]

Really... That can't be. Cause then the same bot/person would have had to registered under "VenusKitty88" as an AIM screenname. For some reason (no offense) I thought Kimmi was her. Don't ask.

[mistysakura]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
Since 8th April 2000... whoa. 3 and a half years. My old account was Cutie_Misty. I was around here for a while, then I left for a year. Then I decided to come back under my new name (considering the e-mail I registered under doesn't exist anymore, and I forgot the password, and I couldn't stand the username anyway...)

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was in Grade 5, and I was 11.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I will be in Year 10 at the end of January, and I'll be 15 in February.

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
Um... to be honest, I kind of stayed in TCG the whole time, so I wouldn't have a clue. I remember the sig contests, though.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
I can't really say I have one. I've got a few friends, but I wouldn't say that I know any of them particularly well.

[Syberia]

1) Since January 19, 2001, under the same exact account I'm answering this poll under.
2) I must've been 12, if my math skills are anything near decent. That would have put me in 7th grade, I guess.
3) I'm 15, in 10th grade.
4) How can I put this? Let's see... NO.
5) Kris (Angel Blossom). She's finally started posting again :o.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?

1.) I've been at TPM ever since January 10, 2001.
2.) I was 23 back then and was working as a specialst in purchasing of gas and oil exploration and production maintainance material.
3.) Now I'm 26 and I'm still employed in the same field.
4.) Hardly because they are much less active and thus the amount of interesting topics simply reduces itself.
5.) midnightangel - but she's more than a friend :)

[*Murkrow]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?

Um, I've been registered here since about June this year, but I started visiting the forums about a year ago.

15 and in Year 11.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?

16, Year 12

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?

Erm, I'm not sure, the RS forum's changed, but other than that, I haven't noticed any changes, so I can't tell if they're as fun as they once were.

Who is your best friend on these forums?

Gravy.

~Jay

[The_Missing_Link]

1) How long have you been at TPM?

Since February 23, 2001. Almost 3 years

2) How old, and what grade were you in?

I was 13 and in 8th grade

3) How old/What grade are you in now?

I'm 16 and in 11th grade

4) Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?

Heck no. In my opinion, TPM started to go flat after it switched from UBB to EzBoard. It's still fun now but things were more original back then. I miss those good days

5) Who is your best friend on these forums?

I have a lot of good friends but I've known Adam (adz44), Zak and Karin (Charizard04621) the longest

[Kris]

1. I joined in December 2000, so Ive been here for three years now!

2. I would have been *counts* in year nine which would of made me *more counting* 13 years old.

3. Im now 16 and have left school.

4. Not as good as it was, dont find the posts as interesting. But most of the people are still really nice! So I stay for the friends

5. Chris and Lezta, love you both

[Bjarni Haraldur Sigfússon]

[list=1]
Really long, I joined TPM then I was kid, I don't know how many years, it's really long time I registered!
I don't remember, it was so long time I joined!
I'm 15, and I'm on ??? grade
No way, I think they're funnier
Her name is suzie, but her name here is Little_Pikachu
[/list=1]

[Mikey]

1. I used to visit TPM along time ago in 2000, but when the site fell, I did too! I rejoined in March of 2002 and have been here ever since.

2. When I visited in 2000, I was 12 and in 7th grade. When I rejoined I was 14 and in 9th grade.

3. I'm currently 16 and in 11th grade.

4. I don't really remember the 2000 times that much as I was still a newb to the Pokemon community, so I have no say.

5. Um, Jon (Chiko, Octillery) was, but he seems to have dissapeared in the last month.:(

[RJdude]

1.) it's been a while... I think I registered in late 2000-early 2001.

2.) 11, in 5th grade

3.) 14, a Freshman in HS (9th)

4.) Nah, it was funner then... not as much spamming, but its still pretty cool now.

5.) Hanada Tattsu, Dewgongtears and Mikey, I guess (don't have many friends)... but Hanada seemed to drop off the face of the earth, and DT hasn't been here in a while.

[Heald]

1 - 11th June 2000. So about 3 and a half years.
2 - 12 and a half.
3 - 16
4 - Hmm. Hard question. When I was younger I rarely ventured out of the RPG forum (or the Fanfic forum before we had the RPG forum) and for good reason. The first time I stepped out of my terriotory...BAM! Banned by Dodrio. But, as we all know, Dodrio was a complete and utter moron. I came back. The RPG Forum used to be fun but now it just bores me. I've moved onto other RPG forums but I stay here because of the ASB mainly. The old days were the best.
5 - There were some people in the RPG forum I was friends with. fireVulpix to name one, but she left a long time ago. nuo29 was another good friend. The following are people who I could regard as friends but I am unsure of how they feel about me: Bulbasaur4, U_C, Master Rudy, DarkBlastoise, Raz. If Raz is reading this, you are probably thinking 'what the hell?' but believe it or not, you're the only other person in the VG forum with a brain. Plus the debates in the Misc. forum are good too.

[classy_cat18]

1. How long have you been at TPM?

A little over a year.

2. How old, and what grade were you in?

18, a college freshman.

3. How old/What grade are you in now?

I'm 19 and a college sophomore.

4. Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?

More fun, IMO. Especially since I started posting in the Fanfic and RPG forums.

5. Who is your best friend on these forums?

I would have to say mr_pikachu, mistysakura and Whiteangel. Whiteangel is one of the best RP'ers that I've RP'ed with, and mr_pikachu usually tells me what to do to improve my fanfics. He's my #1 replier (no offense to mistysakura). mistysakura is also a great person to hear from, no matter where she posts.

[internal dragon]

1. 2 and a half years, three in august

2. Look at march 22 in the calender and do the math

3.Same as above

4. No, it was MUCH better two years ago

5. Me, Myself and I, I really don't need friends on this board

[Chicoslavocia's Revenge]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
I've been here since... If the account 'Chicoslavocia' still exists, that's when I first came, XD. But CR came in on January 9th, 2001. Almost three years for 'er.

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was 11, in grade 5.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I'm 14 now, (almost 15) and in grade 9.

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
Hell no. I don't know anyone anymore, and to tell the truth, the UBB r0x0red.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
Number1ChanseyFan, hee hee.. But I remember Chiko Pokemon. He was a good friend too, since everyone always mixed up Chiko and Chico, and they thought I was a guy too because of 'im, XD. (We also both changed our names to Fearow one day, to confuse people further. Damn, I miss him.) There was also Misty Rocks, who's long gone as of now. She was a great friend to me, even though I was a spammer, and she was a fanfic mod. =3 Heh.. Also Mist, who was the newbie Lavern back when she registered.. I became real tight with her back then, but now I don't think she'd recognize me anymore.

And Shazza. =3 Can never forget him, ne?

~Chico

PS: Oi Bjarni Haraldur Sigfússon, I don't think Suz'd consider you a 'friend', seeing as the only relationship you have is your constantly trying not to get banned by her. (And it's ban, not bann.)

Unfortuanately, no. :( A lot of my old friends have left. The activity level has really dropped, and some of the "magic" seems to be gone. I still love TPM, I just wish it was more like it was back in the UBB days. Thankfully, my best friend is still here!!

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?

*Points to sig* Chicoslavocia's Revenge!! We've been best friends for like 3 years now. Lawrence_III_Fanatic was also cool, I wonder whatever happened to her.

[Skyelugia]

1) I have been here since November 26, 2003.
2,3) I am 17, and a high school senior. Will be 18 on April 4.
4) I wasn't around back then, so I cannot make an accurate comparison. However, I think these forums are pretty fun, and I try to bring in a lot of interesting ideas.
5) Definately Iveechan. After seeing her artwork and hearing her ideas, I knew we could converse together.

[Zak]

1. Over three years, despite my profile. In June 2000 I joined on a different name (which some of you know, but I was 12 then and its a stupid name, which I'm embarrassed to say;o ). Then my account got deleted in the "great hack" some of you may remember, and I rejoined as Spinazak, and had a lot more sense. Now that I think about it, given what my name was, its no wonder he deleted it -_-;;

2. I was 12, in 7th grade.

3. 16, 10th grade.

4. I hate to say this, but not too much, they kinda lost the spark :(. But its still fun, I still love TPM... it just can never beat it's 2000 days... unless a miracle happens.

5. Kayla (EVme15) of course :). But if I had to choose others, they would be Rebecca (The_Missing_Link), Sam (Crystal Mew), and Katie.

I think it's slowed down a bit, but at least it's survived where alot of other Pokemon boards have failed and folded
And TPM is as fun as each one of us makes it out to be ;)

1. Officially, one year, three months or so. However, I used to visit The Pokemasters way back when. The banner used to change every so often, and I remember once it was this really poor drawing of a Pikachu... *sighs wistfully*

2. 15 and in high school.

3. 16 and in high school.

4. As fun as they were when I first got here. Of course, it took me awhile to find the Fanfic forum, so I guess it's kinda skewed...

5. Either ZeldaFan20 or classy_cat18. We've been friends for awhile now. mistysakura's a close friend, as well. :D

[Ninetales3001]

1 - How long have you been at TPM? Since the beginning. This account, Ninetales3001, is the 4th one to be created! :D
2 - How old, and what grade were you in? Oh god, I can't remember? Grade 9? I'd be 14-15 then... lol
3 - How old/What grade are you in now? I'm 19 now, and in grade 12, just finishing. I would have gradded last year if I wasn't behind lol
4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be? No way! things were so wicked here at the beginning.
5 - Who is your best friend on these forums? I really don't have a best friend here anymore, but Gyro and Suzie(Selphie) use to be the best of my friends at one point in TPM history.

[DarkTemplarZ]

1) Nearly 4 years, since April 13, 2000. This is about my eighth account.

2) In 5th grade, 11 years old.

3) I'm in 9th grade and 15 years old.

4) Hell no, TPM was so much better in 2000 and 2001 than it is now.

5) No real best friends anymore, most of my friends long since left. Right now, I guess people like Darkyouth and ace135cc would be *shrug*

1) A year and two months, I think. I joined in the November of 2002, if memory serves me correctly; I'm too lazy to check.
2) I was 17, and had just completed my final year of highschool.
3) I'm 18, and I'm due to start my second year of Uni in a month.
4) About as fun as they were when I joined.
5) ChicRocketJames.

[DannyBoy]

1. I have been around for years on several sn's but didn't really start posting until January 2003 on Totodilelover.

2. I was 14 and in 9th grade.

3. I am 15 and in 10th.

4. It is fun but not as fun.

5. Don't really have any. Sometimes I talk to Mikey and Dratinihaunter.

[AntiAsh Superstar]

1. Since the dawn of time... well, since March 2001 at any rate... ****ing hell, that makes it nearly three years, how have I stayed sane? :o

2. I was 19, losing interest in the uni course I was doing and slacking off.

3. Now I'm 21, in no grade at all coz I'm busy doing data entry type work in order to kill my overdraft.

4. Nah, they've slowed down a lot as more and more members have left and not been replaced, once upon a time there used to be tons to reply to and now it's hard to find make than four or five posts a day.

5. Well BugsySooSillygirl person, she's such a good friend that I moved in with her. :o If it's only people I know online, then my vote goes to Steve a.k.a. Chris the Sandslash, only he hasn't posted here in years. And if it's only people who're active at the minute, I suppose Gabi wins.

[RedStarWarrior]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
Since the beginning.
2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
14/15 and 9th grade.
3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
18 and 1st year of Uni. Although, credit wise it is my 3rd year of Uni.
4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
No, at one point I was posting about 20 times a day on average. I think I am posting about 4 or 5 times a day now because the forums aren't as interesting as they used to be or as fast-paced.
5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
I can't say I really have a 'best-friend'. Sadly, most people here seem to forget I exist.

1. I first joined 3 years ago, in Jan '01 as Artemis, but the account was lost in a hack, then I joined again in May of that year and about a month later changed my name to Bugsy.

2. I was 22 when I joined and I had a full-time job in an office where I was always bored and TPM gave me the chance to look like I was working when really I was posting on here!

3. I'm 25 now :o and I'm in my 3rd year at university.

4. I'm not sure, they're getting quite fun again, but for a while they were really boring, but in the old days they were really cool.

5. It's the lovely boy who is cuddling me right now! AntiAsh Superstar, aka Ade, aka puppyboy, aka bigger dog, aka pretty one, aka a lot of other silly names I give him. We live together now!

[Everoy]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?

Not sure, I think I might have joined in August or September when I found that my Online BFF (Twizzler0171) was here. Sadly, she's inactive now :(

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?

11, 6th

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?

12, 7th

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?

Can't say. I have been seriously

Probably Cyndaquil. Other semi-good friends include tons of people in the AC/CC forums.

4. Yeah...it's actually getting better than how it was when I first joined...But that's just me.

3. 11 and still in 5th grade.
4. Can't say. Haven't been here long enough.
5. Used to be Jay until earlier today, now it's probably people like Cheesey, Becca, Amy, Gabi, Danny and a lot of AC/CC people.

[Jamesology101]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
I can't actually remember. ^^; I haven't been around since the very beginning, but my original username seems to have been lost in one of the various moves. This name's a year old, but I've had many before that. Probably ... two years, maybe more? I really can't remember! That's so strange.

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was probably about 17/18, since that's when I first got into Pokemon. (I remember that 'cause I was as old as one of the estimates of Jessie and James's ages. ^^) Dunno what grade that is, but over here in Britain I was doing my A Levels.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
20 years old, second year of university.

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
I've only really posted actively in the past year or so (and even then not much), so I can't really compare. But I do know it was a lot more fun when everybody wasn't spending all of their time whining about how much more fun it used to be. I also think Anime Discussion's a lot less fun than it used to be, I think Johto kinda killed it off. There used to be so much acrimony and arguing, people got really passionate about it .... now everybody's mostly just indifferent. Oh well, I guess you move on.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
The Rusted One is the only person from here that I actually still talk to. ^^; Yeah, he's the coolest anyway.

1-I joined in July of 2000 so it's been about three and a half years
2-14 (almost 15)and getting ready to start 10th
3-18, HS Grad/Broadcasting student at the Ohio Center for Broadcasting
4-Anyone who thinks thing never change is crazy. Despite all the ups and downs of the board and my life over the years I still enjoy TPM ^_~
5-Depends on what you mean. Normally I'd say Asi/Brandy since I talk to her the most and have met her but since she'd my GF I'd say UC from the RPG forum.

[Light_Togetic]

1) How long have you been at TPM?
A teeny bit over a year. Yeah, I know, can we say newbie? Compared to most of the rest of you. Yes.

2) How old, and what grade were you in?
Heh, um, I was 18 and a freshman in a community college.

3) How old/What grade are you in now?
I'm now 19 (wow! Big difference!) and a sophomore in college. The same college...

4) Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
Well, since I haven't been here that long, I don't know how much value my statement has. But since I've been here they've always been fun. Except when a bunch of spammers gang up on one forum and spam away... That is sooo annoying.....

5) Who is your best friend on these forums?
I have never really talked to many people outside of the forums... *hangs head* But I considered Hanada Tattsu a friend. Really all the people that I get along with I consider somewhat my 'friends'.

2. I think I was in 8th grade, and about 14 years old.

3. Now I'm a senior in high school, and 18 years old.

4. They're not as fun for me now, mostly because I don't know much about Pokemon after Gold and Silver :(

1) Hmm 3 years already I guess, I've 'left' the TPM for quite some time to take a break that is.

2) I was around 16. I guessed I registered here after my 'O' level 'cause I've nothing to do and some friend recommend me this msg board ;P

3) Hmm approaching 20 soon. I'm going to be drafted into the military next month lolz~

4) Nahz~ lots of fun members hav left already. Come to think of it, it seems like the msg board is more duller than before.

5) Roarkiller is proberly the best one ard. Come to think of it, most of my friends had left the forum lolz....

3 - I'm 15 now and I'm in year 10
4 - The forums have changed, majorly because now they're kinda old and the obvious fact that pokemon has kind of faded away. But they're still better than the other forums.
5 - Um, besties are probably Ryan (citrus crush chikorita / last exile) and Andrew (ozandrew)

yeah, dean is anidean.

[Indecent Exposure]

Hmmm, this ones gonna require me using memory, always a challenge.

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
4 years this Friday :)

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
Umm ok.... I would've been umm... 13 when I joined and in year 9... don't know what that is in American grade terms.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
17, 18 in a few months. I'm not in year 13, more commonly known as the last year of high school.

4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be?
Yeah, but in a far more relaxed way. A few years back, you'd have to post hundreds of times ust to get spotted and make some friends. Nowdays you know people actually read your posts, whcih is always nice.

5 - Who is your best friend on these forums?
Dun know. Anybody out there like me? No? Ok. Most of my TPM friends have left, or are rarely online anymore. But I just noticed that Jay Umbreon posted here, and therefore is still counted a forum member, which is nice cos he rocks :)

[Green_Pikachu]

i don't know if i know any of you, because when we moved to a new board or something, my status was switched to my name, and i wasn't able to change back. Hence, why my name is ThePariah instead of Green_Pikachu, like it is supposed to be. :( im sure that happened to others, too, and not just me.

[MarshmallowEgg]

1 - How long have you been at TPM? - I think I joined August 3, 2000. Somewhere around there, anyway.
2 - How old, and what grade were you in? - Oh man, 2000... I was going into 7th, I believe. So I was, like, 12.
3 - How old/What grade are you in now? - I'm now 16, and in 10th grade.
4 - Do you still think TPM forums are still as fun as they use to be? - Not really... but that may be because I'm not as easily amused anymore, and the Pokemon School RPG is gone, which I LOVED.
5 - Who is your best friend on these forums? - I dunno... probably Amy, I talk to her more than I talk to anyone else on here. *shrugs*
