Can you let us have animated GIFs as our profile pics?
EDIT: we need a music forum.

Um...:
1.) Yes, you can, just as long as the file size isn't over the limit.
2.) We probably shouldn't, being that it isn't a big topic.
Here's an idea: Pets.
Or: Forum Money.
I was at a forum not long ago that had these features. It was fun, until the webmaster experienced some technical difficulties and the site was fully of broken links.
If you need me to explain, just ask.

I second that question...
Is it like Toricredits on Toribash?

Forum Money? They have that at the cave of dragonflies... I saw at the breif time I was there. The money was to buy stuff... permits to sell stuff like pictures... (Then the shops would really be shops) It isn't a bad idea.
Yeah, Hobbes. The money was use in shops. When I started, I have about $50 in forum money. With every post I got, let's say another $50. You keep collecting money for things like shops and pets.
About the pet, I don't know. It was new to them when I was there, but it was pretty cute. He had a few pre-set pets like: cat, dog, rat, and a few pets from anime like: Gamabunta, Pakkun, Manda, etc. There was also a shop where you can pay $100 and get your very own pet. I was going to request one, but decided against it, since it wasn't that fun. Maybe we can try that here, only with Pokemon (since this is what this place focuses on) and raise one (just one) and train, feed, whatever, and maybe battle.
Just a thought. ;)
Scizor-kun
01-06-2008, 10:44 AM
that sounds interesting...
how can? train or battle? there has to be a whole system or else people might argue over who won battles, etc.
what will the owner of the shop do with the money? What will the money be able to do in other places other than shops?
Battle? Train? Not sure. Like I said, it's an idea. I have no idea how to set it up or anything.
>< Gah. I still need to work on some skins for this place.
On the money. That's another trick. Maybe I can survive his place long enough to ask about it.

Money sounds like a shaky idea to me. Besides using it in Art shops (my shop will ALWAYS be free to the public, btw) what would it be used for? Getting out of an infraction? Making a new thread? Oh, and if you get money because you post, this forum will become a SPAM forum filled with people wanting to post just so they can get money. Advance on the money topic so we can decide if it's positive for the forum or not. =/
As for PokePets, I think they will become a "Neopet" type thing after a while. It seems like a good idea right now, but what will they be used for? Battling and...bragging rights?
Imo, btw. xD;

yeah but then they will only come here for that. they won't post about anything else.
They might. Most stores reel customers in with a sale, and 40% of the time, they buy something not on sale.
It's worth a shot. Either way, I made a shop for them. They can be just for fun.

ShinyEspeon is the SuperMod.
PokeMaster is a regular Mod.

01-09-2008, 12:17 PM
I mean for the regular users, like a welcoming committee...
Some people can be upgraded to "Ambassadors". They won't be given powers, unless someone just wants it that way, like an everywhere Mod. But they can be here to show members around. I thought of this not to long ago, but I've forgotten to tell someone. ;)

A Mod's job is mainly to Moderate the forums.
Maybe some people who seem like good "Mod" people can be upgraded to Ambassdor and whenever they need some temp help, they can rank up for a while. There's nothing wrong with this, but I know someone is going to chime in with his two-cents.

all the existing members should be welcome to the new members, not just a group.
Shiny Raichu
01-13-2008, 10:41 AM
Well, you really can't force members to welcome new members, myself, I don't welcome them, though do help them out when they need stuff.
I have a question on that. This may be just me, but a lot of forums have separate threads for each new member so you can talk just to that person and get to know them. It's closed probably a week later, just to stop it. Why is there just one huge welcome thread? I really want to get to know that person, but God-forbid that I do, since it'll called "spamming". I guess being total strangers is nice too.
Scizor-kun
01-13-2008, 10:49 AM

I think we could make the backround change color like what we type on it's white right now, but i think we should be able to change the color of it.
Just change the skins. That suggestion really wouldn't help or hurt the forums, and it's extremely hard to understand what you're trying to say.

Of course mods would have control of it, really what now happens is staff can move, delete (I think), and close their own threads.

We should have a "Hall of Shame" board.
I'll PM you the link to a good example.

I personally think its a very bad idea, the mods have a junkyard board where they move threads instead of deleting them, kinda cleaner for the mods, but personally, there would be little use for it.
p.s. I know what one is, I've seen 'em make tons of mess at places like spamgarden (oh... I even use Nick's forum names).

02-15-2008, 06:04 PM
I think A Hall of Shame board is bad (for this particular forum) because it would embarrass people and develop bad feelings.
I've seen it in other older places, but I think that it would be too much for this toasty lil' hang out.

And after staff introduce themselves close the thread.
I like that idea. Either SR can do it, or just open one with some instructions for us. I know I'd like to fill one out.
It could go under the PokeZam.net Forums forum. Since it is talking about the forums staff members. Moderators, Admins, etc. Website Helpers.

question. Is Pokezam a site for talking about Pokemon Video games and anime etc, or is this just a pokemon site for Rping?
It seems like this place completely neglects the Video Game part of Pokemon, it seems... or at least the FC exchange and stuff like that. This site could probably get more people if we at least focus a little more on the Video Games... but that's just my thought. And since I'm just one voice, I can easily be ignored.

I completely agree with you. One of the problems with the games thing right now, is the lack of quality items available. It will be better once I have access to better equipment (something I've been trying to get for a while). Blaziken does his Pokemon of the Week segments with good advice. Anything specific you wanted to do to help out?
As for Friend Codes, it's tough to say. Do you think we should have our own Wi-fi league? I'm interested, though I'm curious on specifics.
As for the anime. Well... it can acquired from #PocketMonsters on IRC. The problem is... the anime is rather predictable and isn't really worth the download for a lot of the episodes as I see it. In addition, the downloads are often slow from having a poor seed/leech ratio.

Back in my former home site, we would have fun just exchanging FCs and Chatting, battling or trading pokemon. We would also hold Wifi tourneys for Pokemon DP, and the champion could recieve some form of trophy or reconition placed on their profile or signature. We would also form Pokemon Clans or Teams, where a group of friends with wifi and Pokemon DP can form together and compete against other clans in friendly competitions.... and that would also be great for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2.
It's all just for fun, you know? I know this place is more focused on RPs, but a wider variety of activities would also be a plus for this site.

SR, I'm doing a project to devamp the Hoenn and Sinnoh Pokemon into Crystal.
Maybe you can have a Misc. catergory or something when it's all done.

Yeah, I'll definitely upload them.
@SE - Well, you can't make threads invisible, only boards.

This is prolly a stupid question, I know, but can I bring back some of the old forum games that got closed a long time ago?

Um... Can you repost the games with a version 2 or something, I'd prefer not to have massive bumps.

New Idea: Can we make the spoilers available in different colors, or make them in different models?
That's what I was wondering a while ago. I'd like them a little thinner, and able to stack them instead of:

Well, I've figured out how to do it. I would use a PHP includes, in which you would reference the file using "blue", "green", etc. I actually will probably post the code as I think others should be able to use it.
That will be good.
Hey, what happened to the strike throught, sub, sup, marquee, and other buttons?

I removed them temporally. If you can make good icons for them, that would be appreciated, but I'll be making them myself in a few days otherwise.
On the topic of the spoiler, what will happen is you will be able to specify [spoiler] for a plain spoiler, [spoiler(blue)] for a blue one and so on.

Could we get spoiler like this by any chance? I understand if it's a "no" and I'm pushing it but I was just wondering.

Well, like what? I don't really know what its suppose to look like based on that link.

Sure, I can make some kind of icon for those... dimentions? 10x10?
Shiny Raichu
06-23-2008, 07:24 PM
21 by 20 would be the dimensions. And the icons I would like would be as follows:
-Spoiler
-Subscript
-Superscript
-Marquee
-Overline
-Youtube Video
-Highlight
-Outline
-Header 1
-Header 2
-Strike-Through
So a fair few icons, however since they are small I'd imagine they'd be pretty quick. I know they were always fairly quick for me, and since you do this stuff so often they would probably be even quicker for you. Anyway, thanks.
Can I get an idea of the look?
For strikethrough, just an S with a slash through it: S
For sub, have a small "sub" at the bottom of the box.
For sup, have a small "sup" at the top of the box.
For marquee, have an M with an arrow or something: <-M
For YouTube, I can make a little YouTube icon.
The others will be hard since I never use them.

Highlight would be a letter highlighted.
Outline would be a letter outlined.
Spoiler would be like a box that says hide.
H1 would be "H1" really big and bolded.
H2 would be "H2" really big and bolded.
And overline would just be a letter with a line over it.
Thanks a lot. Starting now. (Man, I'm hungry... good thing I've having SPAM for din-din. XD)

It's the silver box that has "show" on it. They're cool spoilers because they're small and they don't have a bar with them.
SR came to me to make buttons and banners. He may use them. Why not show them off?

Wow even the banned users get their own title. That might get some new users to the forums. Great work Akai.
Can't forget the bannies. I used the big bad Porygon for that reason. Haha.

Well, it depends on how you look at it, get a cool user title or be able to post. Well, your choice :D. Do know you were just kidding btw.
Question: Is this going to take the place of the old "Honored Staff Member" spot, or the usertitle?

Its impossible without a plugin for it to take over the user title in vbulletin, so where the honored staff member things used to be.
I'm just wondering. I know how you put in my Zangoose and was curious if it could work, since the usertitles (if not custom) change with the posts.

Well, the idea is for user's status to be displayed while them still being able to have a custom status.
I understand. Some people want a custom title. Like Kaboom. He worked hard for the rainbow-y code thing.

Minor change though perhaps the "Post your Pic" thread should just be changed to "General Picture Thread" since the word "your" would signify a picture of the poster themselves.
Silly I know...
Well I actually made a General Picture thread in the Forum Games a while ago, but it got ingored. =/
