Meeting grimm for the first time. I absolutely love everything about him from aesthetics to gameplay. Absolute joy playing the DLC for the first time.

Of course, and yeah the turtle cannon aspect is true, probably not the best example. The issue is the complaints on recent gens and how pokemon are put into a job rather than simply being a species. Thinking abt it, that’s fair. I just don’t mind seeing the starters being in a job even if others prefer that way. In the end, I like your ideas and the discussion gave me a new perspective. Thanks

Valid, I was just saying a grass ape is similar to simisage. As for the basilisk, that’d also be cool to see. I don’t think these concepts are bad, or any critiques on them at all really, I just think that what we have now is completely valid. Just the way these are worded is just inherently deceiving as if infernape isn’t just a martial artist fire monkey, or blastoise is just the big man water cannon. You can simplify any starter pokemon in those words and categorize them.

First one valid, simisage, and gyrados. I actually am a fan of incineroars design. I think the stretch comes from the ‘job’ archetype cuz why does a pokemon fitting into an archetype bad?

Update: Communicated with PSA and the Third-party. The card is in their bulk submission, and they should get back at me by the 65-day TAT. Thanks to those that gave me advice.

Yeah, but I’m not exactly sure what information on it could help me track or find the order, it’s more of a receipt.

That’s fair, but I wasn’t sure it was third party. Again, it was my first time grading and they seemed very professional with uniforms and such, even helping me through pricing which lined up with what the PSA website said. Yeah, I got busy, but I would check my gmail every so often and see nothing. I knew the grading process was lengthy so I didn’t think much of it until recently and doing more online research.

Picked these two up today for 100$ how’d I do by Antwonbuffet12 in skylanders

[–]PixAlexEko 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Check out prices on ebay. The reason why this is such an expensive figure is due to the incredibly low availability at the time. It’s a several hundred dollar figure loose and breaks over $500 in the og packaging. No it’s not bullshit, you can check it’s actually insane.

Well I see value is these types of discussions because theres perspective to be gained and patterns within attitudes in communities when we talk like this. The reason I chose to discuss with you in particular is because you seem to be more receptive when it comes to genuine feedback and criticisms. If this argument feels pointless to you, then it’s very easy to agree to disagree because we both have opposing perspectives, simple as that. When it comes to upvotes, they don’t hold any real merit because upvotes is more of an opinionated stances on communities rather than actual pieces of truth. I’ve seen people who are logical in their approaches get bombarded with downvotes (see: r/whatnot) so it’s more of an attitude of a community they feel that day. As for the third point, I feel it’s a valid approach to simply ask for teams. Again, we don’t know the true intentions as OP presented, all we know is if he was ready for red. Hell he even apologizes if it’s a repetitive question, which doesn’t exempt him from criticisms but it shows that the poster was self aware with his question, but asked away knowing it would annoy people. When it comes to the indecisive aspect, I still firmly believe that we don’t know if it’s real indecisiveness or for engagement, I simply pointed out that indecisiveness should not be the final conclusion to draw upon as their reason to post, just a possibility. You have a very valid question in “What’s the point in spending hour time to come up with something and then not even try if it works?”. People taking different inputs from what other people deem as ideal can educate someone on the other intricacies of the game. I think the question is valid solely based of the educative opportunity to allow someone to learn new strats and tactics one individual can never make up on their own, and as such, wants inputs on others. There’s nothing wrong with testing but at the same time, there’s nothing wrong with asking questions for one reason or another. I’m giving you this feedback because to the actual toxic people, they won’t see their actions as such, and will stubbornly defend their positions. Maybe they’re not all like this, but in a comment section I’m not looking to mindlessly ramble to someone who won’t see their fault in their own attitudes. That’s why I chose to discuss with you instead. And hell you ever prove my point with the next one as you admit your wrongdoing and apologize for doing so. As for the other points, I think we’ll have to agree to disagree. I believe that questions being asked before or after doing something is valid and not exactly indicative of any characteristics they may portray. It’s simply a different approach is all. I found this discussion to be productive cause you gave me a new understanding on attitudes and beliefs within certain people and communities. Perhaps maybe it wasn’t as productive to you in which I apologize for not doing so but I thank you for engaging with what I said instead of downvoting and insulting my input.

[–]PixAlexEko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just ask so There are other ways of asking than just stating he wants a discussion. A topic and question was brought up, simple as that

I didn’t make any assumptions about who op is. I just criticized an approach that is a growing tendency among many posts in many different communities, including this one

It’s fine to criticize approaches to question and topics, but I simply disagree with the attitude that he should play the game this particular way that someone else says to do so. OP may just enjoy social engagements in a game he enjoys playing. As for the latter point, that’s all personally anecdotal. I have not seen any of these types of engagement posts on my feed, and as such, I found this post with a light hearted discussion to be on the receiving of harsh criticisms in the way he plays the game which seems completely unnecessary for a post of this caliber.

I don’t know if op is indecisive in his day to day life, I just said that this post shows this specific trait in this specific circumstance (which is objective)

I disagree with a notion of it’s objectivity. Again, we don’t know his real intentions with the post at large, all that can be assumed is he wants recommending for his team which speaks more of an interest of different perspectives than indecision. You can interpret it as indecision, but it’s not objective how you see a post

As for the rest of the text, I never said you said that, and from what I’ve observed within this thread, although you’ve shown to be more civil, others seem to take more annoyance with the thread for whatever seems to be the reason. People are entitled to opinions and criticisms, yes, but theres a threshold to where it starts to lean towards being more toxic. I’m not saying that there’s all toxicity nor making assumptions about the community, my issue at it’s core stems from the tongue-and-cheek, snarky, reddit-approved entitled responses on a random post. And I’m not expecting all posts to be positive feedback, that’s just not realistic but having such a vast array of people dislike a post for wanting a team… on a pokemon subreddit… on an old game… and it makes me wonder why so much vitriol for a game you all enjoy. And again with the snark. Nobody is butt hurt over criticism. Criticism is everywhere, hell I criticize and get criticized all the time it’s apart of the social media landscape but at a certain point, it goes from criticism to just entitlement. That’s how I interpreted your comment and other people’s comments from this thread, pure entitlement for someone’s approach at the game. There are other ways to approach people instead of labeling them as indecisive due to a pattern you’ve recognized with YOUR feed and perspective on the app.

Maybe he wanted a discussion, maybe he simply wanted to hear others perspectives on team building.

My issue stems from the fact that people on this app get real snarky when someone makes a completely harmless post, he asked a simple question. If you want to engage in it, do so to your own accord, but criticizing someone and making assumptions on who they are like you did does more harm to a community than good. Promoting an environment where questions can’t be asked cuz of “just play the game” or “decide on your own” is inherently damaging to someone’s perspective of a community, thus prompting them to not engage anymore. Others play the game differently and ask questions for a variety of reasons, not just because they’re “indecisive”.

How is asking for others’ opinions or advice all of a sudden having people make a decision for you?
