poll: your st@tus at TPM

[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.)

[Number1ChanseyFan]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
I registered on November 6, 2000, this is the same username that I have always had. I've never really liked it, but I've never had it changed. This is what everyone knows me as now, so I'll prolly never have it changed. lol

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was 15, and in 10th grade.

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I am 18, (19 on February 19th) and I am in my 1st year of college.

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

[midnightangel]

1 - How long have you been at TPM?
Almost three years
My anniversary is January 22, 2001

2 - How old, and what grade were you in?
I was 22, in college, and working in the medical field

3 - How old/What grade are you in now?
I am 25, and taking a hiatus from school for right now, and still working at the same facility

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

[Ninetales3001]

1 - How long have you been at TPM? Since the beginning. This account, Ninetales3001, is the 4th one to be created!
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?

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. 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 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

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'.

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....

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)
