PKMN.NET / So you wanna submit some PokéContent?

« on: May 20, 2011, 20:08 »

So!

You want to help PKMN.NET? You have aspirations of being the next admin? Or, more likely, you're incredibly bored and just want something to do?

Submitting something you've written to PKMN.NET is easy. Really easy. At the moment we have two different submission methods:

1. Simply stick it onto an email and send it to seniorstaff[at]pkmn[dot]net. Please include PKMN.NET in the title, that way I'll know to fish it out of my junk mail folder. Also supply your id number somewhere to make crediting easier. Send myself a PM if I don't respond after a couple of days. I might have missed it. Or I'm probably being unfairly lazy.

2. Use our content submission system! Simply select the relevant section, name your page and submit it straight into our database!

Now, time for some FAQs!

Should I submit HTML with my page?

Yes please! It means we can put your page online even quicker!

I can't write HTML! Do you still want it?

If you don't know what you're doing then it's best to just leave it. I can write your HTML from scratch far quicker than it takes me to fix dodgy HTML. HTML is preferred, but not essential.

Do you have a page on HTML guidelines?

It's funny you should ask that.

There's a really coolz page on this other really coolz site, maybe I could submit that?!?

No. That children, is called theft, and is actually frowned upon here.

I've found an error/want to submit an improvement/want to do something troublesome on X page. Whatever can I do? Maybe I should cry?

No, don't cry! On the page in question you'll find a link in the right sidebar called "Suggest an update for this page". See if you can guess what this does. Additionally, right at the bottom of the bottom taskbar of a page you'll find a link called "Report errors on this page". Again, guess what that's for.

I've got no images to submit with my page. What should I do?

Don't worry. I can add images in myself if needbe. If you happen to have some however (and you have permission to use them) then it's best to email them in to seniorstaff[at]pkmn[dot]net. Either with your submission, or seperately, with a quick note explaining what they are!

To anybody who is considering submitting something, please, do it. Every page helps, and helps you to share your Pokémon skillz with slightly less able trainers around the world!

Updates / PKMN.NET Official Meet: 2011

« on: March 02, 2011, 22:39 »

Another Official Meet? Why, how fantastic!

Where? London, of course.

When? Saturday 23rd July.

How can I be there? Sign up for it. But only if you meet our requirements. Only those of 16 years or older are allowed to attend. If you're 16 or 17 (and in some cases even when you're older), you must ask your parents or guardians for permission. That's a legal requirement. Which means it's really important.

Exact times and locations will be decided in private. We realise we're very early with this year, but with quite a few of us in full time work now, we needed to be quicker off the mark this time. If you're interested in coming, say so below, and we'll grant you board access in the future.

We know that you might need to take a while to confirm your availablity here, therefore the deadline for attendance confirmation is the 9th July. After then, you will need to seek special permission from Joeno or myself in order to attend.

Again, here's something we wish to make clear: if you're going to walk off and do something by yourself, it's your own responsibility to find the group again. We're not waiting around for anybody.

Since this is a common complaint, we'd like to announce that while the 2011 Meet will remain in London, we're strongly considering taking the 2012 Meet elsewhere. Suggestions for that will be welcomed at a later date, and because of that we are not currently interested in complaints about the location. Times aren't negotiable either.

(As for the small print: We reserve the right to refuse admittance to members for any reasons we consider appropriate. If, for example, you joined the site two days ago, you need to forgive us for not being quite as sure about your intentions. However, generally the meet is open to anyone).

We look forward to seeing you there!

Updates / Black/White: Guide to Unova!

« on: February 17, 2011, 03:14 »

As I'm sure you've all noticed, the Black and White section has been looking nice and full for a while now, and I believe it will reach absolute completion comfortably in time for the upcoming release of the games in English-speaking countries!

Following the leak of all the English location names, I've compiled a brief guide to all the new locations in Unova. Have a flick through it and get a feel for the location of the games, because if you haven't played it yet, trust me, you're going to love it.

Guide to Unova!

Obvious warning here: The page contains spoilers such as the locations of certain Legendary Pokémon. If you don't want to know, don't click!
