Default What you won't see on PRE

Here are some things you won't see on PRE. Ever.

1. A shoutbox. Yes, I thought I would get that out of the way first. Shoutbox's are neat little things aren't they? Well thats also why they invented Instant Messengers. Shoutbox's generally take away from activity on the forum. They give people less of a reason to post. Server-wise, some shoutboxes kill the server. Either way, I have tried them persistantly in the past. PRE will never again have one. I'm tired of dealing with them and the people that abuse them worse than a $2 prostitute.

2. Frequent, large changes to the site. The old PRE had this often. Since it was my first ever website, I used it as a playground. It drove people away and for those that understood why I did it, it still ticked them off. It's possible from time to time you may see a small cosmetic change to the site. But large changes or updates will be non-existant.

3. Server Problems. God how I hate them. I really do. The past few days the site has undergone them, but only for short periods of time. And according to the webhost mainly because they had to restore some large accounts. Which took the resources away from this and a few other sites temporarily. It seems to be infrequent and for very short periods of time. So at this time I'm not worried. Just a few minor bumps. The site itself has caused zero server problems even at its busiest and when it went over 100 people online. So I'm pretty confident things will overall be fine. Just gotta get over those few bumps.

4. "OMG...why did they have to destroy the love story between this evil guy and that good girl from the Sentai version?! PR sucks!" Seriously. Threads like this will be deleted with no warning. I hate them. Most people hate them. And they do not help either fandom. All they create is gay ass flaming. If you can't understand that Power Rangers is MEANT TO BE DIFFERENT than it's Sentai counterpart, was not meant to follow it, and is aimed at a different age and country demographic (amonst other things), then nothing can help you.

And no argument will ever be right to you or good enough. If you want to argue about talking morphers and talking dinosaurs that all sing and dance along with the bad guys and how it is more realistic than the dinosaurs in the PR counterpart that didn't do that....that's fine. Just do it alone. Or better yet, argue about it with your blow up doll. At least it'll likely give you the answer you want to hear.

5. Fandom members that wants to be dicks to other fandom members just because they can be. We all like to have fun. And most people know when that fun is happening. But there are times when people just like being assholes to hurt other members of the fandom because they can. Guess what? Those people can kiss my ass and go elsewhere. I will not tolerate it. We are here to enjoy and talk about Power Rangers and other topics, to other like minded people in the fandom. To help each other and further the growth of the fandom by helping each other and having fun. And to help add some legitamcy to the fandom. Theres a fine line between stating an opinion about an episode, series, or even one of the actors....and beating a horse to death and just being a smacktard about it.

6. Me in a g-string. Fun yes. Deadly? Not as deadly as NormaN running around covered in green jello screaming "I'm a cactus, I'm a cactus!" then crashing into the backend of a horse. But deadly non-the-less.

So be proud to be a Power Ranger fan!

No Shoutbox?! I feel the need to dance lol. Sorry to those who like them but they frigging irritate me - especially when they slow down the site or keep me from getting on at all.

And you just had to mention a g-string... Now there's an image

I agree with everything said in this thread. Especially on the shoutbox, the storyline follow-up thing and the member-argue thing. :D
