It's random April update time! I don't have Internet access anymore, but I'm still trying to log on when I can. Hopefully this is just a temporary problem, cause I really miss you guys (not to mention it's driving me insane not to be online 24/7 anyway). In the meantime, I am promoting Uzi to Programmer. He's a long time loyal SS staff member who has been a part of the community since 2009, and we feel that he can handle the additional responsibility. As such, he is also being put in charge of the Battle Rankings. From now on, please send any questions regarding the Battle Rankings or requests to have titles changed to him.

A couple of other noteworthy messages and events:

-Expect a new Pokemon tournament coming up soon. Let me know if you would prefer it to be on the actual games or on Pokemon Online (I'm leaning towards the handheld games at the moment)

-Once again, a message about user behavior. This is a forum for all ages, and you should not insult somebody who doesn't make the best posts due to them being a younger age. All of you were "young and stupid" to a point, so please be courteous. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

-As always, we need more Hit and Give ideas, so feel free to recommend something. Just keep in mind that at least 40% of the community should be able to understand it.

-Remember to check out Super Skarmory's stream and support him (http://www.twitch.tv/superskarmoryproductions); he plays a variety of games while streaming and is sure to entertain you.

-The next rank (unlocked after a year) will stay at the high requirement of 2000 posts. Why? Because it is the second to last rank and, eventually, people WILL unlock it.

-For those of you in the Battle Rankings, what do you think of it? What do you think can be improved?

-The Provisional Ruler of the Battle Rankings by the end of the month will be able to have a custom weapon added (just like how the staff had), so good luck trying to climb to the top!

Other than that, we have a big surprise coming up in the next couple of months, so keep your eyes peeled.

Thanks. :)

Now fix the banners. -_-

I would love to change them and was under the impression that it would just be a weekly thing. But we've already endured them for this long, so I suppose waiting until the end of April isn't so bad.

Either or. I'd rather it be on Showdown, but any of the above are also fine.

the banners require exactly 5 minutes of playing league of legends and watching one clg game to understand.

I vote console. Never went and figured out that Showdown stuff. ._.

> The next rank (unlocked after a year) will stay at the high requirement of 2000 posts. Why? Because it is the second to last rank and, eventually, people WILL unlock it.
oh God . . .

Also, is there some sort of way you can make the human verification when signing up for the forums more complicated? I swear we've been getting 2 bots a day lately.

I'd prefer Online/Showdown, but it's your call.

Ooh, surprises.

And like the rest of other members, I (silently) wish to have the banners changed, but I'm a rather patient person, so I could wait another week or more before they get changed.

X!!

Kirby and Mega Man HaG's, please.

GREAT JOB, ZACH! YOU JUST GOT PEOPLE TO POST 20,000 TIMES A DAY!

>For those of you in the Battle Rankings, what do you think of it? What do you think can be improved?
New weapons would be nice. Replacement of inactive players every month would also be nice. Other than that, the Battle Rankings are fun.

>The Provisional Ruler of the Battle Rankings by the end of the month will be able to have a custom weapon added (just like how the staff had), so good luck trying to climb to the top!
Now I should make sure that nobody will challenge me...

Uzi + programmer/admin = destruction rains from the heavens

Hopefully, the new rank is worthy of 2,000 posts. I'm praying for Purple rank.

When it comes to new ideas for the Hit and Give games, I would suggest doing a Metroid one.

Yo. Didn't feel like making a new thread, but "Liking" posts now gives one reputation point to the user who made the post. People have been slacking a bit on giving out reputation lately, so this should help members get their points up by a bit and reward them for making good posts.

Please note that if you are caught abusing this system, you will have the "like" system permanently disabled for you and lose all of your reputation points.

Ah, right.
Also, could someone answer me, does the Likes that were given to your posts before the change accumulate to rep or not?

Note how your rep hasn't jumped up by about two hundred. Also note how it didn't drop when the function was originally removed.
