thanks I put a lot of work into it

No, you still can't call other people racial epithets in your heated gamer moments. Feel free to stay away. Thanks

Hi, From what we understand, the current sanctions are limited to financial institutions and designated persons, and online games like ours do not mandate such restrictions since there is no commercial trade involved for normal service. At this time, we don't plan on implementing a geoip block for the game against any country, including Russia. This is not to say you'll receive full functionality. Gift Shop transactions are impaired due to global payment networks shunning Russian banks, and our payment processors are almost certainly obligated to restrict service to Russian customers due to US/EU sanctions. If the world's situation devolves further and a full embargo or blockade is instituted, we may be mandated to block service as well.

We have no interest in making wordfilters more permissive. Anything you're gleaning from a lack of filtering is a product of your mind and a consequence of how old the blacklist is.

At the moment, yeah, I feel like we'll probably skip Jumpeon this year too. It's going to depend on how much I have in my queue towards the middle of the month. If we end up skipping it again this year, we'll expand the Book of Dio next year

We regard April 5th as the anniversary, not the day of the forums going online. It took a few days to get the first gameserver online after the website We'll have a small event the first week of April to commemorate the date

Congratulations to the winners of the Lunar New Year 2022 Leaderboard: Prizes for the Top 50 teams will be sent out on February 11th at 12:00am UTC+0. For players who posted multiple high scores, please note that you will only receive a reward for the highest score you posted.

I recommend using the crab to convey any other emotions you may have

gonna turn off your leaderboard again you keep that sass up boy

Alright, last one. IPB's reaction UI sucks so I'm not adding more until they figure out how to make a grid nerd

crab is a very important emotion

ok

It'll be fixed next client update

Yeah, I'm still updating it. The IPBoard ones looked pretty bad in comparison to microsoft ones so I replaced those. Not sure how I feel about the blue hearts atm. It comes off as kinda gushy, so I may go the facebook route and give you a thumbsup

No. Point allocation naturally favors parties with more players in this event. The point bonuses for recruitment were changed shortly after the event started because the event incentivized leaving early too much. The "missing" points were given to the Hard Mode bonus (+480 vs +240) and Nian bonuses (+40/ea vs +20/ea) instead.

guess you'll have to buy 3 dragons instead

Our wishlist for the GTL includes an order book and auction support, similar to other MMOs, as well as qol features like saved searches. I cannot give you a timeframe for when they may be worked on though, sorry. We're pretty busy right now. thank you for your support, stay tuned for the kickstarter

LC was very unpopular when it was deleted. We did not want to support an unpopular feature, because it cost us a lot of time and complexity.

My excessive experience in both being a thief and administrating this game has indicated to me that sometimes posts aren't worth responding to seriously. While I didn't need to respond with my first draft script of the opening scene of PokeMMO: Where Thieves Lie (Part 1)(Release TBD), we've found over the years that sometimes our players enjoy the admins riffing on our less than useful postings. "devs are bad because they copied randoms feature from showdown" is not a statement which gives me any opportunity to have a positive interaction with the player (unless they got a smile out of my response). It's not even "criticism", it's just flaming because they're dissatisfied with us. So, there's not much to do here except either ignore it, beg for their forgiveness, or overexplain the intricacies of responding to forums posts to someone whose opinion of my movie production is apparently already very negative. (I chose the third path because it relieved the tedium of rewriting the mart system to accommodate for the LNY event for a little while.)

The year is 2022. The Devs™ are still poopy buttholes. The ferry to Johto is years behind schedule, and no ship could be seen on the horizon. But for what reason could they possibly care? The fat capitalist pigs roll in their money stolen from working class players. The others could surely see that a better game awaits, if only they would stop throwing fistfuls of cash at the bourgeois. Cries of "Johto When?" echo through the channel chats. They fall on deaf ears; The Devs™ have lost all ability to communicate except in Mandarin. The only sounds that could be heard were "做得好! 下一个限定项目是什么时候?" Truly, my homeland has been lost. I would never taste an Apricorn again thanks to their blind greed. I clench my fist. Wait- Was there a berry here before? I don't remember grabbing it from my bag. And when did I even log in? It bursts into juice and the insatiable urge to create PokeBlocks overcomes me. I head to Lilycove and make 30 Blue Pokeblocks+. Did I even want to do this? Oh no. A new Year of the Tiger vanity just released, limited edition. Suddenly, my browser navigates to my donation URL. Dark patterns convince me to move my mouse over the "Purchase" button and my bank account is now $1500 lighter. I frantically make a support ticket for a refund, but The Devs™ respond the only way they know how: "No Refunds." I lament my situation and accept my fate. I click the Gift Shop button, throw my mouse over the Tiger, and click "Buy." "Hey- They let me purchase more than 1 at a time now? Wow, The Devs™ really do care." As Kyu sips on his mojitos on the beach after a decade of developing the game, he winks into the camera. End scene.
