... and like a bean burrito, I have returned.

Erm, yes, Thanksgiving was the reason for my absence.

See you when you get back, MK.

[ImmunityBow]

I don't get the joke. Why would a bean burrito return?

Welcome back, by the way.

[Irot_Rebod]

After eating bean burritos... well... let's say I read a lot of "Uncle John's Bathroom Reader."

... hopefully that isn't too graphic. ^^'

And thanks!

[Cyndadile]

I don't eat beans (let alone burritos), but I understand perfectly. Especially when you're camping with people who have had such food.

Welcome back, IR!

Until an unknown time in the future, bye MK! See you soon! (At least "soon" in the lifetime of the universe, although I suppose I won't actually "see" you, but rather hear from you, although really more like read the coments you have posted. English idioms go down the drain on the internet.)

Lol IR. XD

Sorry about my ... ahem: death. >.> I was busy talking with Jase on the Cult of Ustream chat. Yes, you heard me, talking to Kuda and co. for three months. XD

I got my hands on an orchestral VST, so stuff should sound much better now. Sadly, all my HGSS and etc midis were erased after I MOVED COMPUTERS TO A NEW ONE!

[ImmunityBow]

Welcome back, STT! Your new arrangement with the VST is an improvement, actually. I'm glad you found a program better suited to your work.

[Cyndadile]

Going to leave tomorrow for Michigan. Should be back by the 2nd. Adios!

[Eve]

I live in Michigan!

C'ya later C.




As for myself: I'm just checking in for now to see how things are doing.

[MK94]

im leaving for california tomaro at 5am

[ImmunityBow]

Sorry for my inactivity the past few days. I got out my wisdom teeth and was recovering.

[Irot_Rebod]

Happy Holidays, Topaz family! I'll be back on Monday!

Welcome back, IB. Hope the recovery was smooth and will continue with out mishap.

[ImmunityBow]

Have fun eating and sleeping and doing Christmas-y things, Irot! The pain's just about done, so I think I'm recovering pretty well.

[Reliability]

I'll be leaving for my grandparent's house for a few days, so I won't be on at all.
In related news, if you hadn't already noticed, I'm taking a Topaz break over the holidays. I'll be thinking about it in the back of my mind and checking back here for posts and replying to any that I can, but I'm a little tired and need a rest from school and from this. But once January hits, I'll start producing content again.

Getting my wisdom teeth out was only good for convincing me that Tylenol > Advil.

[ImmunityBow]

Have fun too Reliability!

[Cyndadile]

Have fun everybody!

I'm still in Michigan, but I've got internets now, so I might be on every once and a while to check in.

[MK94]

im back from california and it was pretty cool but it rained the intire time

[Blade Flight]

Got this on YouTube:

If it isn't any trouble, could you please mention in the Introduction/Farewell thread that I won't be on Pokemon Topaz for the next little while? I don't know how long it will be.

What happened is, I got a virus on my computer yesterday. My dad told me that I can't go on my computer because of this. I can't access any of my files relating to Topaz. I went on a different computer, and while I was on it, I went on Pokemon Topaz, but my dad saw me and told me not to go on it. I asked why, and all he said was that he doesn't trust the website, and I didn't argue with him, because he's kind of scary when he's angry.

He didn't say I couldn't go on Youtube, though, because he said that it's impossible to get a virus from Youtube. I'm asking you, because you're the only person who I know has both a Youtube account and is on Pokemon Topaz. Thank you!

From Tyrannigon.

[ImmunityBow]

Alright then, hope he resolves everything soon.

[Silver]

strict dad,

[Tyrannigon64]

I'm back! My computer is back to normal, and I might be able to convince my dad that this isn't a virusy website. No one else has gotten problems with viruses as a result of this website, right? I doubt it, but no harm in asking.

[Cyndadile]

I don't think so. This computer has always been a bit virusy though. The other computer I use is fine.

[SilentSentinel]

Nope, just don't click on any of the links the spambots try to put up.

[Tyrannigon64]

This seemed like the best place to say this. I haven't been really helping Topaz in the way of sprites recently, but that's because I've had a boatload of homework and projects recently, and that virus from before didn't help things. I still have said boatload of homework and projects, but once exams are done (for me, that's Jan 27), I will get back to helping with sprites and with whatever else I can do. For now, I'll just be commenting on other's work every so often.

[Cyndadile]

Nothing is wrong with that.

Good luck on exams!

[Pillowrath]

Hey guys,
I am not really sure if anyone knows/remembers me. I am from the old PokeRealm forum and have been really busy for the past few years. I was never "into" Topaz back in the day as I never really appreciated how much effort you guys put in. I was feeling very nostalgic and decided to check out this website. Logging on with my username and password didn't work, so I decided to register again. What's up with the "no. 385 pokemon" in the registration? Haha, I haven't played pokemon in ages and had to google that with my sh*t internet (hate you zeroality).

I am no good at graphics but if you guys need any help with programming or some other relatively basic things, feel free to drop a line. After a minute or two of checking the forum out, I have to say, I haven't really seen any familiar face until now; if someone I know is there with a different name, please let me know.

Again, wonderful job you guys.

[Sev]

im ungrounded So back to my 25 posts a day schedule lol

[Cyndadile]

Hi Pillowrath!

What's up with the "no. 385 pokemon" in the registration?

Spambots.

[zeroality]

What's up with the "no. 385 pokemon" in the registration?

I changed it to generic questions instead. Not everybody has all the Pokemon facts memorized.

But yeah, it's there to prevent spambots from registering. Seems to be working so far, although I'll probably need to rotate in new questions every now and then if they harvest the data manually.

If I were a spammer, I already know how I would go about gathering all the data. Not gonna post the idea for obvious reasons.

[ImmunityBow]

D: It's not so much memorizing Pokemon facts so much as figuring out that Jirachi is Topaz's official mascot.

As for Pillowrath, welcome back! I remember the name, though not the person.

[Reliability]

[zeroality]

Sorry I haven't been around in a day or so, been in bed mostly - feeling like shit.

I think I'm alright now though.

[Stoneheart]

Yay for introduction and what not.


The name is Shadrixian. I prefer to go by Shade or Shad most of the time, though. You can also call me Kim, as that was my nickname on another site back when I used the name Kimonio.

(Now that that is out of the way, yay for info about me.)
I'm 15 and live in Texas. Most of the time, I'm emo-creepyish, most of the time not. Most of the time I'm practically random. I'm a boy though.

(And now for other stuff.)
For about five months, I've been working with RPG Maker VX to make RPGs(no duh. D: ) for sites. So far, I've made two, one of which had to be dropped and forgotten due to me clicking the wrong application. Anyways, I've ben making an RPG for a Pokemon site, and plan to make it into a six game series. To put it all bluntly, I'm an RMVX-o-holic and love to do anything computerish and techy.

Other than that, hello.

[ImmunityBow]

Hi Shad! Welcome to Topaz!

[zeroality]

Welcome. It's good to get people with game making experience around here.

[Cyndadile]

Welcome! It's good to see new people.
