    I actually got too lazy for BBCode; but the list was long anyway so yeah PM'd you. And yeah, most BBCode was allowed~

    Oh, imageboards* should of course be against since it strains them. Imagehosting* sites that care about hotlinking just means they can't sustain they own business enough and thus are trying to depend on ad revenue of not only the people uploading images (aka the only people they should be trying to generate ad revenue from in the first place) but also people viewing those images.

    BUT THE POINT OF IMAGE HOSTING SITES IS EXACTLY THAT. You're supposed to ONLY hotlink from image sites as that's what they're there for. Use imgur or cubeupload because they haven't gone off the deep end~ And yeah the character limit is meh~

    The difference is hotlinking is an issue when you're hotlinking an image that's hosting on a website that ISN'T MEANT FOR IMAGEHOSTING. Let's say for SWF, this is not a place to upload images. So if you uploaded images as attachments to different posts on here, and then direct linked to them on other sites, you'd be straining SWF's server for people to view those images from another site.

    Why not just post in it and get it back going again? Lol if that one hasn't been posted in in a year I don't see how a new thread will be much different :/

    Tinypic is an imagehosting site that attempts to prevent direct linking and hotlinking; which is pretty much the opposite point of an imagehosting site. Also they are quick to remove images, thus leading to dead links a lot more often than other image hosting sites. It's pretty much bottom tier of imagehosting.

    Being a TO is easy since my state has a relatively small community, but I just get crap sometimes for a lot of small things and it's just pure stupidity in my opinion. Though being a TO has it's moments where it's fun. Plus it's something I'm relatively good at. Since I can't practice brawl on my own or with others, being a TO helps me a lot. At least I can say I'm good at something. Ha.

    That's really dumb. People giving you a hard time. I mean it's tough running a tournament! Ha ha, I remember I ran one years ago in the OTL and it was just a total mess. Don't let them get you too down, and keep doing what you love!

    ew tinypic
    and yeah, it will be one gen at a time
    we're on xenforo 1.1 which is pretty old now; they've recently released 1.2 which we will be going to which will have a lot of fixes and such, so not sure if that specific thing will be addressed or not, but wouldn't surprise me if it was

    It's the people. This site harbors many elitist snobs and otherwise jerky people who don't make the game fun. Also they don't make my job as a TO fun at all. I've just grown tired; I've had enough.

    Ah yeah I see what you mean, there can be quite a few unsavoury people on here. I didn't know you were a TO! That's awesome, I'd imagine getting the logistics right must be complicated.
    Bomber7
    I've been doing fine. I was actually doing amazing while the site was down. Now that it's back up, I am not too happy. Oh well. Quitting smash within the year so I won't have to sorry about bothering with this really bad website.

    Hi there blue pants~ All those messages out of nowhere made my day brighter.
    Bomber7
    Well, I'm back in the tournament scene. I'm trying to improve my Pokemon Trainer and improve my overall fighting skills. Other than that I'm kept busy with school, work, and a girl. >_>
