That's up to Vycksta. Since she's logs on a regular Basis, and does her staff duties, I can't take over with out her say so.

For your information: I was told, as a member of the GPD Staff, NOT to take it over.

Two months is a bit much, though, is it not? Surely if someone can't attend to their duties after a two month break, then the responsibility should be passed onto another mod/user?

Also, when should we expect BW2 avatars? I want Akuroma.

If Vycksta is logging on to perform her mod duties, then there is no issue with her responsibilities or her duties. Running a thread, for which the only purpose is for members to write "I claimed [Pokemon]" is not part of the moderating duty. The thread is run by Vycksta for your entertainment, when she is ready to reopen it, then it will be; or if she wishes to pass it on to someone else to run, then she again will make that decision.

When they're done.

Can something be done to nudge the ads off to the side? I understand why they're there and I have no problem with them being on the forum, it's just that half the time my browser thinks I clicked the ad rather than 'Subscribed threads' link. Which isn't too annoying when it's something like ITT tech, but I just got redirected to a lesbian dating site and I don't think the younger readers need to end up at any dating sites.

(Sorry if this has been brought up. I did a search, but didn't find anything.)

Some browsers have an addon called Adblock or the sort that would take care of them.

We need the ads in order for the site to run. Without them, the server costs cannot be paid

I'm not suggesting removing the ads, as I said I understand why they're there, I was just wondering if it was possible to move them off to the right a little or something.

I suggest that the Exclusive Dream World Moves Page for Pokemon found in the DW be merged to their corresponding DW areas instead of having a totally separate page. This will eliminate having to toggle between the pages, and searching through the Pokedex pages for just acquirable DW moves. The Pokedex pages are a necessity and serves multiple purposes unlike any other Dex on the net right now. But a whole separate webpage for just moves for available DW Pokemon is excessive. plus, all the info you'd need to know about that area would be in just one place!

Also, I've noticed that the DW move lists are incomplete for newer Pokemon areas and for existing Pokemon. Pokemon found in the DW have the possibility of 3 moves listed, not 2. Currently there's only 2 listed for each. And I know B2W2 just came out in Japan, and coverage of them is more of a priority than DW issues. It would make us English speaking players happier, though. ^_^

Has anyone else found the forums to be subject to much lag as of late?

Has anyone else found the forums to be subject to much lag as of late?

There are several reasons, for this.. One is that Serebii.net is quite heavily used, since the release of BW2. Another is that some users are having large images for the signatures.

Also, There are some Technical issues which can affect many services that run the internet: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-18672173

If its avatars you're worried about, you can disable avatars.

Ok this might be a stretch... actually it is a stretch. I was wondering if it would be possible to update the Join Avenue page with a picture showing the phrase the customers say when they want to find a specific store and having an outline on the key words. Then, maybe have a table that has all the "key words" in Japanese along with the store name and translations so that people playing this (until the English release) could upgrade their Join Avenues a bit easier?

Just wanted to say kudos to Webmaster Serebii for the comprehensive update to the B.W. Dream World pages with missing moves, new Pokemon, type preferences, etc. They're very thorough now, and are exactly what I had hoped for!

Also, the Hidden Hollows overhaul is a solid addition to the site.

A free-to-rent DVD in Japan is offering the recent Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 introduction movie. However, this copy of the DVD includes a longer version of the introduction movie, with a one minute scene featuring Mei and Serperior facing up against Cheren's Gym. As such, I've re-done the images for this special. In addition to that, the AniméDex has been updated with the new contents of this short. Click the picture to go to the gallery

This was on the Serebii.net news bulletin. Any chance of getting some avatars of this new footage? In addition, any chance for some of the Black2/White2 Pokewood sprites to become avatars?

I was wondering if there could be the forums could include the option of notifying a user if they've been quoted or not. Of curse, every user has a choice weather or not they wnat to be notified, but nevertheless, I was wondering if this option could be included.

There is a good chance we will.

This is up to Serebii, and his pick on the options and the if only available via plug ins, if they require, by Serebii's definition Hacks. If they require what Serebii consider hacks, he won't add it.

Custom avatars would cost more bandwidth. It's been brought up many times already.
