I suppose I should introduce myself. I'm commonly known as Newmani. I read about this place from the Final Fantasy forums and since that place is a touch empty at the moment I figured I'd come on over here. I hang out at a multitude of places but the Maplestory forums is the place I most frequent. I should note that I'm a little strange, and I like Final Fantasy and Pokemon just a liiiittle too much.
So what kind of people are you guys? Is it not too insane in here? :blush:
Hello! I'm shion and I like the Pokemans as well. My favorite FF is IX, which ones are your favorites?
IV and VII. Still working on III, and I have yet to play any of the others. :shobon:Quote:

Well, we have a general forum for general discussion, a food forum, a writing and art forum, bunches of gaming forums, blogs, and a chatroom! We just gab gab gab all day, really!
Sometimes people get into mischief by letting the giant gorilla out of its cage when the handlers are not watching.
...A food forum? Like a giant mess hall? Are there lots of food fights? http://i.somethingawful.com/images/emot-dance.gifQuote:

There will be no stopping Gorilla Grodd, Shorty.
Hmm, I suppose you could call them food fights. There are very intense debates about which topping of pizza is correct/wrong, and the right term for a fizzy sweet bubbly non-alcoholic beverage that often comes in cans, bottles, of fountain drinks.
Shh shh, don't worry about the gorilla.
Well alright I might head on over there in a bit. Still wondering about that gorilla...Quote:

To be fair I can see why you quit playing after Gen 2. All the good glitches were in gens 1 and 2. Gen 3 has awesome glitches too though that people are just discovering as we speak! http://i.somethingawful.com/images/emot-dance.gifQuote:

I think it had something to do with the anime for me. As a kid I watched the anime that followed the first and second gens so I was committed to each and every Pokemon. When the third gen came out, I wasn't watching anymore so it was just a bunch of new things that I had no story connection to. Also my first game was Silver, and I backplayed through the first gen games, so I have a bit of first game nostalgia for Gen 1 and Gen 2 as well.
You had Silver version too? I freaking loved that game. I remember one playthrough I beat the Elite Four with my Pokemon at level 38 or so. Sadly the battery wiped out soon after...Quote:

Listen, Pokemon, you make my rival a giant asshole I can't stand right this instance!
I had such a good time when Soul Silver came out. Oh man, those nostalgia feels. And then Pokemon from Gen 3+ started being used and I had to sit with a Pokedex next to me so I could figure out what types they all were because I couldn't tell from the names. :mad:Quote:

And Kanto was completely restored, with the old legendaries and areas that were previously blocked off due to space restraints once again accessible. Pokemon Black and White were like what Pokemon Gold and Silver were for the previous generation, and they were glorious, but there's absolutely no Pokemon from the other generations available in game until after the credits roll so... if you're not into that I can't recommend it.Quote:

Adding new evolutions and whatnot bothered me. I am very attached to my originals - I don't need super awesome mega special Charizard or whatever. Charizard was always my (very cliche) favourite because I always went with fire starters and I love dragons, and he was the most dragon-looking of Gen 1. Dragonite was a massive disappointment. How did something as beautiful as Dragonair evolve into Dragonite? Derp.
Actually, that's the first thing I thought when I saw the new Charizard evolutions. Which of these seems to make more sense?
Attachment 54679
I might've loved Dragonite if he looked more like that.
Eh, I don't think I could have. That entire design makes no sense and just plain wouldn't work. Those.... feathers? There's no supporting structure there so if he tried to fly with them they'd just bend and not catch the wind. And the eternal flames... Wouldn't he run out of fuel? As for Dragonite I thought it was cute but it could have been done a bit better. But I still love the bugger. I guess it just grew on me.Quote:

That sort of reminded me of a theory I once heard about Butterfree and Venomoth. Supposedly Venomoth was supposed to be Metapod's evolution, and Butterfree was supposed to be Venonat's evolution. Why the two were switched is unknown, but a lot of people theorize that cause of the eyes of both Butterfree and Venomoth matching Venonat and Metapod respectively.Quote:

Really, you're going with Scyther?
I like Squirtle the mostest :3:
I... can't decide a favorite. There's Mew and Butterfree and Wigglytuff and Ninetails and Lugia and Mewtwo and Giratina and Charizard and Togetic and Yveltal.... and a couple dozen others.

As for coming from TFF I hate to say it but I'm new over there too. I was there.... then poofed for a while... then came back to find the place still empty. :(
If you poof from here you will find me worse than a bad Sephiroth Cosplayer! :colbert: You will remain here and be my friend for ever and ever and ever :jess:
You sound more like Golem than a psychotic humanoid killer Rabbit of Caerbannog mister. I'm not impressed. :|Quote:

Anyways hello! I am Pike, EoFF's resident Charmander and Trekkie. Nice to meet you! http://i.imgur.com/QXpavBe.png
Ever think of the jerk hole?
Hello. My name is often Quin, and I am made entirely out of lemon juice. Don't lick me. :|
There are some very important and potential life-threatening things that you should be made aware of before venturing into the general forums, but due to recent legislature gracefully imposed upon us by our kind and benevolent ruler, I'm not allowed to inform you of them.
How many windows can you see? :)
You'll fit into the little jigsaw puzzle of people that is EoFF just nicely. Welcome, Newmani. :D
Also, Scyther is pretty awesome. If Neo and I agree, it can't be wrong.
Welcome! Looks like you're fitting in just nicely with the non-insanity that is EoFF. Hope you enjoy the forum! :D
Jolteon is the best :colbert:
Uh.... ok. o_0Quote:
