    It wouldn't have been hard, but would that have changed anything? Mods or not, it's up to you all whether you choose to keep playing. If the need arises, a new mod will be appointed, but right now, it feels pointless to designate a mod for a forum that's not getting any posts.

    In fact, what keeps a forum alive is the community as a whole. In other words, its members. If members aren't posting, no mods will be able to change that.

    However, there can't be a battle if there's no referee.
    Truth be told I did think of reffing your match with Knight of Time however I was not sure if you wanted to continue it, mind you I'm fairly rusty.

    I apologize if that came of as being rude Lady Vulpix, I know it would not been hard my point however is that it seemed like you all were ignoring an obvious solution, in regards to new posts I was thinking about posting some updated version of important threads for example the Bank the only real reason I have not done so is I didn't want to get yelled at incase anyone disagreed with some of the changes I would make for example having it so that the customers of the bank could only have a single post.

    Mind you this is just an example of what I had in mind with the idea of the platers having their bank balances be in a single post not only oy better organized but it cuts down on the number of post the banker would have to look through in order to update the bank s record.

    Also I think what really killed our ASB was the fact the the mods basically controlled all the Businesses thus making eather battling or reffing the onlt vible option for earing points.

    To be honest I really dislike calling the currency the ASB uses Points I much rather we go back to using Yen, now while to be fair while I can understand why it happened in a way it feels like it crippled the economy of the ASB, I men in my mine the final nail was greyfox's plan of not having to pay for evolutions when EXP Candy could have been used to pay for evolutions instead.

    The idea comes mainly Pokémon Go which along with ides from Pokémon lets Go and Pokémon Sword and Shield is kind of the direction I think the ASB should go in, along with the idea it takes place a Post Apocalyptic dystopia based world and the trainers would have to work together to rebuild the society, while battles would still be a large part of it I was thing instead of straight up buying pokémon from the approval tower they would instead have to find Pokémon in the Safari Zone wich would now act more like a single player campaign, mind you I was thinking of setting up my own take on the ASB Safari Zone and calling it Firestorm Industries which would hopefully pay honot to the legacy of the whole history of the ASB.

    Now one of the things that drove me up the wall was the pathetic excuse given to why NYPC Moves and other regional exclusive moves are banned, I mean what was so hard about letting them learn them as a Move Tutor move? and Paying using Armorite Ore.
