I have a new Rant about this whole Spelling and Grammer system,
Ive looked around and seen people get negative spelling/grammer points and the people who it was given by said this as thier reason
" needs to use commas better"
I mean honestly put more thought into why you are giving this person a negative point because other people do see it, it would be more appropriate to say
" this person does not use periods at the end of thier sentences, and does not use commas in the correct manner "
there, if your going to post about someone on thier spelling put some thought into it please, why ruin someones rep because they didnt use a comma that well? I know spelling and grammer is something very important but when people just say 5 words then boom a negative spelling and grammer point thats not right. So please to everyone who uses the grammer system seriously, don't make it something we all hate.

Also someone has given me a negative point and thier reason was this
" Please capitalize and use puncuations. It's a little hard to hard your writing. "
they didnt even say thier statement correctly.

No, I messed myself up again with another typo. Give me a negative for that if you wish. But seriously, I do have trouble reading your posts at times. If you post at least five times with correct grammar and all, then I'll reconsider my rep and may delete.

Sounds fair?

Dude, don't bump a bloody topic like this. if people got rants they'll post them.
Also zyflair - Yes, you may leave your seat. Yet you can ask a judge for time extension in that case.

im pretty sure your wrong,
our PTO stated that you are allowed to leave your seat with opponents permission ONLY, unless its a medical emergency.
a time extension will be presented if nessacary.
thats what our PTO/head judge stated.

Well, its rare to happen in the first place, but if you really desperately need to go, just call for a judge to monitor the time taken, and you should be allowed to.
I doubt they want their chairs to be peed on now would they?

And wow, this board's censor is taking it to the max.

Heres another Rant. People who delete their post after I post in response to it. That just bothers me. As an example in one of the decklists that were trying to make a modern GG a person posted that they should move on and nothing else. So after I reported that as spam I made a post
1. Telling him that you are allowed to make any decklist you want
2. Fixing the decklist

He then either gets removed from the sight or he deleted his post. That leaves my post sitting there talking gibberish for the first half because I am scolding nobody. I know that I could edit my post which I do from time to time but the whole thing become more of a hassle than it should. You are allowed to delete your post if you are afraid of getting in trouble for it, or if you have found that you have messed up in a large way either responding to the wrong decklist or posting the exact same changes as the guy above you who just happened to be able to post faster.

Hmm I know everyone messes up when they type, its human nature, I just dont see the need to rate peoples grammer.
This is not an english class its a pokemon forum, I dont use pokebeach to learn grammer and spelling, at least Pm the person first. Dont just leave a neg point, I mean I have two points from people I barley see around. And people are giving out more neg points then positive points. I dont think people use pokebeach to get told they cant spell either, thats like going to the store to buy some cereal and some guy comes up to you and tells you that your hair is bad. WTF I mean yeah some people take that stuff seriously like your looks in public but ( your grammer and spelling ) thats not what you go to the store for.
And also most of us our teenagers so we can careless about our grammer, but when we get told to change it then we fight back. I think im gonna make a clan against this new system. Who wants to join in my anarchy lol ?

P.S.
I hate spam also

Wow so this Has been hidden for a while but I have another rant

This one is about how people put so much value into cards that are not worth as much as they think.
I mean like Kingdra being priced at 8$ is crazy and claydol at 20$ I mean honestly when normal rares are worth more then most lv X card then something is wrong. Pretty much the best pokemon deck is the most exspensive is how it is looking

I have 3 rants.

Rant 1: Narrow want lists in the trade section. I came here primarily to trade cards and complete my pokemon "roster" in card form completely. But then I look through a bunch of trade lists and find that everyone only has around 7 wants. It's ALWAYS Lv X this, EX that, Star Pokemon (Which all seem to have really lousy attacks. Why are these so high in demand?!?!) LA Kingdra, or GE Claydol (and that card isn't even all that good!). I really can't make any trades when everyone wants the same 8 cards, now, can I? I'm pretty certain my wants list has to be the biggest in the whole forum.

Rant 2: Junk rarity. Ok seriously. What was the deal with all those Gym Heroes/Challenge and EX rares that had stats identical to commons from other series? Misty's Goldeen. Horn hazard. 30. if tails, no dice. Sounds a lot like the base set Nidoran Male I have over 8 of. So why is it rare? And there's a TON of those "wasted" rares throughout the whole series. Then you have numerous stinkers from EX. Can someone PLEASE tell me why Power Keepers Zangoose is rare when the most damage he can deal is 30 ONLY if you flip heads? Or Holon Phantoms Seviper. He only does 40 damage or he poisons the defending pokemon. I know so many commons that can do that! and of course the always-useless Holon Phantoms Mawile. Doesn't hurt for much nor does it do anything useful. Just another junk rare.

And of course there was Neo Genesis Pichu. Even holo at that. But his attack was useless. Only damaging Pokemon with a Poke Power and didnt even apply weakness! Elekid would be junk too if you could'nt use that power from the bench. Making Elekid rather useful I suppose. Magby I never liked either. Since he could only disable Poke Powers. It didn't matter as all your opponent needed to do was flip heads and Magby was as good as dead. As were all of the baby pokemon.I hate them more than others because that was all I ever seemed to pull in any first edition NG pack I ever bought. Seriously. It was HORRIBLE. I still have my First Edition Magby from that sad era. the others I either burned or gave to a kid I know (Who I did not know at the time I was burning my junk rares)
