Lets talk - (anything)

Found a Kecleon on a Pokestop last night by chance. I don’t bother to check for them anymore. Far to much time spent for no gains.
Glass half empty the two family member accts did not have it appear after knocking it out :face_with_symbols_over_mouth::face_with_symbols_over_mouth:.
It’s bad enough they are hard to find but when you do there’s a good chance you can’t catch it any way because of a bug.

I had one sticking on a Pokestop last Saturday and was able to spin it with the Kecleon on it. It was a funny sight, for sure, less so funny when it didn’t spawn again. And they promised the buggy update would finally have us catch Kecleon, just as they promised we’d be able to collect Field Research when the Item Bag is full. Niantic doesn’t know how to keep promises, apparently.

So I was going to update some of my badge scores as per @bagguille ‘s request… but I don’t want to clog up the forums with dozens of posts in different threads.

I think what we need is one thread where you can post multiple updates at the same time.

Perhaps the opening post should list all the badge threads in numerical order 1 to 50-odd - so a typical reply would be something like…

  1. 35,967
  2. 200,063
  3. 87
    etc. (obviously the number would correspond to the badge - I can’t remember what the actual task order is without looking them up :grin:)

Would this work? :face_with_monocle: Is it a good idea? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

That’s definitely a more plausible way. Good idea :+1:

Another way would be you send me the updates as personal post. I add them to the tables, and after some time I publish the results. Obviously not after every post sent to me, but maybe regular time (every 4 weeks?) I could do so.

I certainly like the greatly reduced overhead, not requiring us to post screen shots of every badge.

Maybe you can use Google sheets to create a table with all the achievements and give us the link so we can enter our own data.

I’m happy to PM @bagguille
I’m happy to continue to clog the forums
I’m happy to collate everything in a single post
I’m happy to fill in a Google docs. thingy
I’m happy to stand on my head and sing the Peruvian national anthem while drinking a glass of water…

…but it would make the whole task so much easier if someone would just…

• create a thread
• list the data required in the same numerical order as per @bagguille ‘s tables
• and pin it to the top of the forums next to other important stuff so it’s easy to find

Please :grinning: and thank you :pray:

I personally agree with @celery there should be a new thread with all the badges, either with a complete list that can be copy pasted and filled out with the respective numbers or a link to the Google sheets.

I’m willing to make the complete list.

There allways existed this Summary thread:
https://forum.pokemongohub.net/t/badge-tables-summary/27352/11

But the idea was that only I publish there all tables and evoid a lot of post down inside. For this reason the players published their own data in the separated threads and I copied them to the big table.

But your right, this way we had an overhead of edited threads.

I have no idea how to put this tables in Google, but if you want it, I will investigate how to do it.

I like that thread - it is very useful. :grinning:

But… I can’t get it to appear at the top of my list.

• I go to the ‘Bragging Rights’ category
• I scroll down until I find that thread.
• I pin :pushpin: it. It tells me that it is pinned.
• I leave and then re-enter but the thread is not pinned at the top of the category - forcing me to scroll to find it again.
• I lose the will to live.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is the forum software not functioning the way it should?

From what I see the forum needs an update so we’ll have to contact @Brobraam to contact @apavlinovic to update the forum. Yeah… complicated

I’ll look into the pinning thing.

Seems I have the same issue. It tells me it’s pinned but it doesn’t actually pin the topic.

I’ll pin it for everyone but I’ll need to check if we don’t have too many pins already. If the update which may take a while solves the issue I’ll unpin the topic though.

Hopefully we can also get a new Admin on the forum this time because that’s certainly needed after @Thorend disappearing out of the blue.

That was quick, thanks :+1:

Interesting, lol.

I know, what’s up with that?
Is it treating me like a first time poster as that was my first post since the forum update?

Unbelievable. :roll_eyes:

On a separate tack, is there any way to identify xxs or xxl Pokémon from the storage contents listing? The Shadow and Shiny ones can be seen Or do we have to go to the individual mon’s detail screen to see? I might try to collect them if I could easily identiry them when selecting for transfer.

Word blocker. I think we need to check if the post is appropriate whenever the word “spoofing” is used. It was fine in this case though. There are a couple more words too that will have us check if the post is appropriate.

I will probably need to allow myself to post this too.

Edit: apparently not. Interesting…
