• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Who's your favourite human character?

    The people who make the human characters in Pokemon need to make a dating sim or something because they seriously throw out banger after banger. Even the normal trainers are terrific

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    This video came across my Twitter feed, more good stuff that makes you pine for the old internet It was weird to watch because my old roommate did some games journalism and wrote for some Gamurs Group sites, most notably Destructoid. Well, he eventually got laid off from Gamurs after the...

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    Okay so some of my friends and some people on Facebook started talking about it recently so I'd like to see if anyone here has some thoughts. There's was a great Facebook post last month after E3 died. Here's a screenshot of it. There's definitely something missing about games culture nowadays...

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    A MtG cosplayer asked for 5 video games that changed your life on Twitter, and aside from my other 4 (RollerCoaster Tycoon, Football Manager, Dance Dance Revolution, and Street Fighter IV), I wasn't sure if I wanted to list Pokemon Blue or Pokemon Silver. It's like, yeah Blue launched me on a...

    Would you be into Pokémon if it came out today?

    The modern games hold your hand for a little too long and the anime, I mean, I like some of the later generations but I don't know if I could really get into it without that lifelong attachment. The trading card game is still good but I find it hard to actually support playing a TCG besides...

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    There's probably a lot of peculiar reasons the American market just went differently. I was born in 1991, I can't say for sure aside from what I hear from older people. For one, when you're a cultural juggernaut yourself I can imagine it being harder to bring in foreign shows. We have Disney...

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    Probably gonna continuously drop some thoughts here that I'm too shy to post on socials about (hey a callback to an earlier post) A long time ago I watched hazel's video about America's Greatest Otaku, Tokyopop's goofy reality show. It's great, I recommend it (the actual show maybe less so)...

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    One of my friends got a bunch of recommendations for video essayists and one of them is hazel, who mostly does anime videos. She has a video about video game and anime fansites if you want more Web 1.0 goodness: She shouts out TRsRockin at the end

    One of my favorite writers wrote a great article about nostalgia and the erasure of Web 1.0: https://thebaffler.com/salvos/404-page-not-found-wagner

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    Doing some necro because someone on twitter shared a screenshot of Pokemon Crater, where I frequented a forum for the first time ever. Truly a life changing experience that sent me down a path that led me here. Funny thing, Magic: the Gathering has kind of the opposite problem. The magicTCG...

    What are you currently feeling nostalgic about?

    By the mid 2010s the internet consolidated around the enormous pillars we're all familiar with, Twitter, tiktok, reddit, Facebook, Instagram, and such, which sucked everyone up and ended what now seems like a real wild west period of the internet, when people congregated around personal...

    So who looks at my profile?

    My last visit was late 2017, my last post was 2016, but if you look at my post history, I was last truly active in 2013. So it's really interesting to see people with 2016 join dates be part of the 10 most recent people to look at my profile. So I get a little sad when I see that some of them...

    School

    There has to be enough time for teachers to grade and plan the rest of the year. While the year is technically planned all in advance, you almost never end up sticking perfectly to the schedule. Not to mention that, unfortunately, not everyone can learn at the same pace. Try out a charter school...

    Idea Centre 3: Idea Harder

    Yeah, I'm still alive and lurking, I just don't know how active I would be.

    Pokemon Go

    If you want to fight gyms, look for other people in your team. You can fight gyms cooperatively (although I'm not sure how stable the feature is). Could also mass evolve everything, which is likely at least part of why the others are ahead on levels. Also, there's a level where you can start...
