Profilebar Updates/other stuff

Since we don't have Gyms anymore, I think that they should probably be taken of of the profile bars on the sides of the posts.

Also, why does it seem like I'm the only person with experience atm? Are you just now updating it?

I am finding experience very annoying to work with, but people should be starting to get experience as I add it on :P
Just so you know, experience is manually done so it will not update all the time :P

Oh and I'll get rid of the badges

Right. That sounds like a difficult job for ya :P

A job you won't ever be able to keep up :P

Eventually, you'll grow lazy or tired of updating something no one cares about anymore. I suggest either getting rid of the experience stuff, or find a way so it updates automatically. If needed, get away from Forumotion, and find a forum host that supports a point system, then re-start PokeIsland entirely. It's the only way if you truly want a fresh start for this place.

Man, that would be SOOOOO hard. I have no idea what other forum making sites there are anyways :P

Good to have the pessimism back here!

@Eclipse
As of now there are no mods. It's a fresh start.

Either way, you'll never be able to keep up manually. Especially if you can prove me wrong and get this place real active.

Go to Marriland or PokeBeach. On the lowest part of the forums page, there should be a link to their forum host. I suggest PokéBeach though. Marriland's host doesn't have very appealing skins.

(IF you decide to leave Forumotion that is Forumotion is a n00b forum host compared to the others anyway


Heck, i might even decide to stay if you re-locate PI to another host

I personally dont care if you stay or not if all you post is bash

I'm not bashing. If you really wanna get this place active by using a rep system, get another forum host. Manually updating this sort of stuff is life-consuming and even impossible if you actually get alot of members. Not to mention it's biased as hell.

All i'm doing is giving friendly and realistic advice. Taking it or leaving it is up to you...

I looked at all this before anyway
the only forum style that supports it automatically was the one that PokeClan ran on (whatever the hell that was)

Well Snoogy, he makes a good point and he has suggested an alternative that sounds like it would work...

Marriland (which was the same as PokeClan) has an automatically updating point system. PokéBeach used to have an automatically updating point system AND a reputation system.

In regards of what Snoogy is trying to achieve with PI, both of these forum hosts outclass Forumotion by far!

Ignoring this suggestion would be downright foolish. You're rebuilding the site, you haven't gotten any members yet. So why not relocate to a place where you can actually do what you're trying to do, while you still can?


The only real downside to this is that Snoogy will have to learn how the new admin control panel works, with which I unfortunatly can't help much.

Its an idea

I have absolutely no problem learning how to work a new admin panel, hell it was only the other day I learnt how to use this one properly :P
But I don't want to be paying to host a site (drain on a young doods resources is never good )
If we could find a free site and everyone was in agreement then I would relocate there - that is all left for me to say on this subject and as of now - this topic is locked.
Anyone who finds such a site or knows of a host, then please go ahead and PM me. I will check out marriland and pokébeach aswell though
