     When you comment, your profile picture below is a pokeball.

    The Pokeballs on the forums are based on your account type and cannot be changed by you.

  2. Some good ideas there, thanks.

     

    The only one I disagree with is the 10% tax on PokéBay, it needs to exist to take money out of the game or people get infinitely richer and prices inflate to levels beyond affordability.

    Every game with a market economy needs (and usually does) this.

    You can read more about it here

  3. You just need to paste in the image link (has to end in an image extension such as .png, .gif, etc)

    Imgur is a funny one because they have hosted pages with content for their images so you need to right-click the image and then click "Copy Image Address", you can't just copy the URL of the image as you look at it on Imgur because it's a web page, not an image.
    For example:
     

    Bad Link: https://imgur.com/a/VEem4

     

    Good Link: https://i.imgur.com/5C6W9gQ.png

     

    With the result being this:

  4. First of all, I've already spoken to that individual on Discord months before his rant on the forums, he seems to be very angry that people spend time playing *any* game, not just Vortex. He thinks playing games is a waste of time and I don't like this air of superiority that he thinks he can tell people how to spend their time - It's none of his business how people have fun.

    Secondly, the game is far from "dead". Over 10,000 people play the game weekly (which that number jumps up when there's an event) and I'm happy with this number, that's all that matters. I wouldn't care if only a single person played it, I didn't and do not continue to make Vortex for the enjoyment of others, I do it for my own enjoyment of computer programming, the fact people play and enjoy it is somewhat a bonus and feeds motivation to make me carry on but not essential to me. How many people play the game should matter to no one but me, and it doesn't matter to me.

     

    Back to that person in particular you're talking about, he lost any right to have a direct conversation with me because all he keeps talking about is money, I'm not interested in discussing money with anyone. Again, my wallet is none of his or anyone's business.

     

    He was banned on the forums because of his constant negativity, it's not welcome here. He does not have a right to be on the forums, it's a privileged extension of the game and I should not have to come on daily to constant attacks from kids who know nothing about me setting statuses about how they hate me.

     

    My message to him in the ban was "If you do not like the game (or me) then simply do not play it". This is my own approach to any game or service, if I do not like it then I won't use it. I don't feel like I have some inherent right to hang around complaining and attacking people about the game/service.

     

    I would have replied to his topic he made but like on Discord, he wasn't capable of making it a rational discussion, it was a personal attack.

     

    I have nothing to say to him and nothing more to say on this topic. I hope you understood everything I've mentioned, if not you can come and discuss it more with me on Discord.

  5. You are still breaking forum rules, you obviously didn't read them.

    In particular, you seem to constantly ignore this one:

    Quote
    • You must have at least six Pokémon listed/posted for trade (Do not post "check my IGN" or "Msg me")

     

  6. Please read the FAQ before posting questions.

    Q - How much is this worth?

    A - Values are never set in stone and are constantly changing with the Vortex economy which means any answer is likely a personal opinion or will be outdated soon. As a result of this, we do not allow questions about values of anything here. You can use our Discord server to get recent sale figures of items and Pokémon.

     

     

  7. I’m not telling you why other players get banned, that’s between them and you - Ask him.

     

    When a clan leader is banned, the clan is later deleted (no exact timeframe) All of its users will be removed from the clan and free to join another, or you can speed up that process by just leaving before it is deleted.
