Fun fact: The Lego Movie was not nominated for the best Animated Picture in 2014.

It got beat out by the Croods, and Despicable Me 2.

It would've lost to Frozen anyways.
No matter how many times I see it I feel annoyed that this:

Why on earth does it matter if they milk content like any other PokeTuber? Doesn't keep them from being right and if that dumb strawman were a point, you could just say the same thing about any PokeTuber stretching for any positive they can.

Also I actually looked into those matters people accuse him. Blowing smoke and false accusations. Nothing more.
It matter because if your milking it then it becomes clear that you're doing it for the money and not because you want the franchise to be better. Clear cut money grabby.

As for your 2nd point, DistantKingdom literally defended pedophilia

Said transphobic ****

And here he is saying racist ****
20211122_121956.jpg

On top of that, he modded his game to show off underaged girls feet and put them in bikinis and ****.
I'll call a spade a spade, DistantPieceOf**** is a racist, transphobic pedo who is struggling to remain relevant because he can't milk his "Pokemon Criticism" anymore.

For those who have Disney+, Ron’s Gone Wrong is coming December 15.
For those who have HBO Max, Ron’s Gone Wrong is coming December 15.

Apparently Disney and WarnerMedia worked out a deal allowing 20th Century Studios films to stream on both services through 2022 (also applies to Hulu).
Still waiting for Freeguy.

Simple biology.
Yeah, I should've stopped reading here, because now I know the type of person you are, but uh
Pedophilia by its definition is a thought.

Thoughts aren't a crime. Actions are.

You don't get thrown in jail for thinking of murder. You go to jail for the action of murder.

He made that clear but it seems you'd rather cut context.

Cartoons aren't pedophilia either unless you live in a country like Sweden but then again, outlawing loli doesn't stop them from spreading STDs to minors or perhaps the UN but their employees are usually exploiting kids and women every other lunchtime.

Also, in case you forgot, Pokemon is made in Japan. The Japanese buy and sell adult content like that all the time legally yet child exploitation stats show the concept is practically extinct in that country.

Not to mention Game Freak has official character designs like THIS but I doubt you'll hold them to the same standard.



So yes he can and no he isn't.


Misinformation, cut context, hhypocris and blowing smoke. I expected as much.
Did you seriously go on an Ace Attorney breakdown defending lolicon and pedophilia? Lmao ok. Don't bother replying, between that transphobic remark and this, I already know you're not worth my time.


Now watch the mods do nothing about this.

Alright let’s drop the current topic and move on.
Remember, we have a Serious Discussion forum for these topics.


I’ve heard things about this movie but missed a chance to see it. Maybe in the future.
Bruh there's someone spewing transphobia and your response is to sweep it under the rug and "waaaaah go to the serious discussion forum so we don't have to actually do anything"? I swear there was a no tolerance policy on this ****

You don't know anything about me and I know nothing about you but go off. All I know is you're some random game boards user that clearly ignores facts and facts aren't a defense cuz they're unbiased.

If all you can do is resort to petty ad hominems and insults (which would break rules regarding flaming and harassment, I would imagine) , then you've already lost the argument anyway. I'll reply as I please tho cuz you really can't stop me.

If I'm not worth the time, you probably shouldn't have taken the time to reply.

I'll gladly take the time to defend my stance in a fair way.

"Take it to serious discussion" ***** did you not see the essay defending lolicon on batting for why pedophila is ok if you don't act on it.


But I bet if there was a ***** joke in there 10 day ban.

I’ll concede I did not read the full convo since I’m at work at the moment.
I’m reading it now.

Finally beat Cynthia.

I had a genius strategy. Send my Froslass holding a focus band in, let it take the hit, and counter with avalanche. Only one problem.

The focus band wouldn’t activate. Every. Single. Time.

Took me around four tries to beat her. And I’m a veteran Pokémon fan.

These kids are gonna suffer

Edit: Yo wtf is going on?

Dude I never said it was okay.

All I said is that thoughts aren't a crime.

Pedophilia is something you see therapy for. That goes withuot saying. I'd appreciate you not putting words I never said in my mouth.

another case of the “Mods vs Peasant users” life, but not as bad

it’s so odd how certain topics aren’t to be discussed nor get warnings for and instead possibly get moved to a different thread, but then a joke or 2 from Noipoi Noipoi or TheMightyP TheMightyP may get an infraction while someone else manages to sneak in a take that’s beyond negative (or a straight up diss towards someone)

idk…could be looking into this way too deeply

Listen mods,

it’s a nice thought but nobody is going to give a damn about the serious discussion forums, when most moderation he isn’t taking seriously because a lot of **** that shouldn’t fly here is allowed to, meanwhile things that really don’t deserve the warning, receive it.

Which is all I’ll really say on that. But honesty I think the serious discussion forum is pretty counter productive.

Let me apologize for my post earlier. I’m at work at this moment and skimmed the conversation. I made the post while the convo was ongoing and fearing things could get out of hand, strived to stop it. Since then I read the full conversation and recognize that more than a single post saying “stop” would be necessary. I was wrong on that front.

I apologize for my hasty decision and will be aiming to read the room more before jumping the gun, so to speak.

No offense to you or the other mods, but this is the exact thing that happens often here. Earnings will be issued out on the wrong people because full context isn’t obtained by the mod at the time or after. Or in the worse case scenarios, warnings are issued to the wrong users who were trying to deal with problematic ones, while the problematic users continue to act freely in future. It’s a very unbalanced system currently. Especially with the slew of new users here after the speculation threads died out.

Reminds me of the time I got accused of being a transphobe years ago by a memeber and mods did nothing about it and they got no ban or warning and ai was the one told I was in the wrong

Thanks again for that, mods

Okay so Pokemon

The menu icons for BDSP aren’t sprites anymore, but they’re not 3D models. They’re 2D illustrations.

I think that’s really cool!
As excited i was for BD, i kinda dont care about it much anymore after seeing it. I just want some Legends news

Thanks for your reconsideration.

Should we report the problematic posts so that they can be dealt with when the responsible mods have time?

I'm scared to say this but because I take ableism and the way we talk about mental disorders VERY seriously I will.

Pedophilic disorder is a psychological term for people who have (often unwanted) frequent or intense sexual urges towards minors. These people are ill and need treatment. We shouldn't normalize this as many people will try to do, but we should normalize giving pedophiles treatment. The sooner they get help the less likely they are to hurt someone or themselves.

I am NOT agreeing with the certain other poster who was in this thread, for the record. Transphobia is wrong and making sexual depictions of minors is wrong. We should never use the medical definition of pedophilia to normalize the sexualization of minors. It's an illness, and it's gross to see people try to use the medical term to try to defend disgusting and immoral things.

Also worth noting that not everyone who sexualizely abuses or sexualizes minors has pedophilic disoder, which is all the more reason we shouldn't use the term to defend such behavior.

Yeah people who have issues should be able to get help, the scrunity makes it hard to get said help, if they haven't hurt anyone, they deserve sympathy, though drawing child porn is often used with references so that does have victims
