I think I do, but I don't like to use them. :/
I'm stubborn like that.
Shoddy's chat function might work though.

Uh, really? I don't often idle Shoddy chatrooms when I'm not playing, and as far as I know it doesn't have any chatlogging features to it. If it's an issue with not wanting to install stuff then just use Meebo.

It's not a matter of downloading things. I don't like using chat services, and I don't have a computer to call my own, either.

I dunno, they just seem shady to me. :urg: I don't really idle shoddy either tbh.

Explain to me how these chatting services work and maybe I'll do it.

Sorry...

It's just an instant messenger service. Hell, if you use Gmail then you already have a Gtalk account, and your Gmail innately supports it. You pretty much register with a username and password, and each account can hold a list of "contacts" or saved usernames that you chat regularly with. Again, if you can't install anything then Meebo (meebo.com) can work because it runs entirely from a web browser and just needs you to have an account, or if all else fails we can use Gtalk unless you don't have a Gmail either. If you're that loathe to using any form of peer-to-peer communication that none of these options work, then I don't see how this tutoring thing's gonna work out.

I was assigned to Leafy, and I know I had to wait till he came back from something, but he is back now, does he remember, or should I politely remind him of the tutoring?

It's not that I forgot, it's that my computer needs a new monitor. For a few days, I was typing from my phone. Just recently, I'm borrowing my mom's laptop. I only have one half-decent team on this computer, and it's OU.

I don't have AIM, but I have MSN, my mom asked me not to install anything onto this. If you want my MSN, PM me.

Im not trying to be a jerk or anything, but may I apply for a different tutor? That 8 year age difference is bugging me.
You'd regret that dearly. Pink Reaper was a huge help to my team building and playing when improving my knowledge of the metagame. I know the age thing is awkward, but its petty in the big scheme of things.

I almost think I should apply to be tutored (y'know, if there was room). I'm not terrible, but tutoring can only help. Plus, I'd sort of want to learn other tiers than OU.

Though U-turn spamming is helpful if you want to scout pokemon/strategy. Well, if anything, at least I learned to never ever switch a choice scarf azelf to a U-turn knowing Choice Zapdos via u-turn.

I'd like to assist Ankoku in his tutoring. I've been teaching him and I think helping him teach others will be a good next step.

So now we have an open spot...

I'd ask, but I'll let complete beginners get priority. Even though I desperately need help team building sometimes, I'd rather let a tutor shine with a student who needs help everywhere.

You should sign up anyway. If another student shows up I can always sign up as a tutor anyway.

Even though I don't particularly WANT to tutor anybody...

So, do I have supermarth, PinkReaper, or Kupo?
Dude does the age thing really matter? If it helps just pretend that the guy's teh same age as you.

Or just ignore it. I know ulti's several years older than me, but I really don't care to tell the truth. I think you should be tutored by PR, I mean I only hear good things about the way he battles. That's good for you.

I guess the tutoring would be nice in that case. Especially since for some reason I'm a lot more in control of my actions on wifi, I need to learn how to carry that over. That said, I'm probably gonna go away from the forums in a while, anywho; not like I'd want to take away a spot from someone who will be active...
