George has been telling us we're gonna have to move to PP, because of life issues and because he won't be on the internet much anymore. I told him I could run the board for him, as close to as he would run it as possible, he suddenly went offline after that.

When BB5 went into PP, I tried sticking to PP for a little while, but it was too boring, and it was all Pokemon talk. So I left.

What do you guys think? Keep BB and let someone else run it? Or go to PP?

Not to look power hungry or anything, cause I'm not, but I think I could run it.

I know that you didn't want it to come to this George, and you just wanted to close BB, but PP sucks and I'm openly saying that. It's also barely active right now, so it'll end up being BB with PP staff making us talk about competetive pokemon the whole time. -___-

Personally I would stay on both. I want Mark to run BB. I think he is trustworthy and loyal and knows what to do and what decisions need to be made. I don't want BB to end.

I'd prefer to not leave here, even if it means someone else running it.

I vote Jake. Or if no one better than Mark wants to, then Mark. You might be good at running a board, Mark.

Meh, Jake, IDK. Jake is to much of a awesome member to be a admin.

He's also got to juggle chemo with running a board. I think he would rather not have the burden of running a board.

Poor Jake. D:

In favour of having whoever run this board, just as long as we DON'T MOVE TO THE FUCKING PP.

...Not to mention, we're getting out of this slump we're in at the moment, and activity here is beginning to pick up once again...

Moving to the fucking PP will fuck us over once again.

Gotta agree. We've had a recent 'rush' of members you could say.

I don't think anyone in this topic would run the forum very well.

... But determination conquers all, and Mark seems pretty determined.

Can't someone else run the board.

Karen seems like she would be a good administrator.

To be honest, I don't really care.

PP is much more important to me. It's pretty much my home board, so all my loyalties and preferences lie there.

And I'll just point out, its not 'barely active at the moment', since we've opened we've averaged 500 posts a day o__o

BB and PP have effectively the same purpose. We're both pretty much community boards with similar groups of members.

Remember the first time we merged? The combined site was in a better state than either board had been in for a long, long time. It's just because a lot of us were immature back then, that arguments flared up. We've all grown up and certainly matured, right?

My personal opinion is that it would fantastic for both boards if we worked together. Both boards are getting around 500 posts per day, so logic indicates if we worked together we'd get close to 1000. Imagine how fun that would be in the summer months, rather than struggling along on our own being stubborn because of old differences.

But whatever. I love both sites, I'm only stating what I think would be best for both of them.

Well it's nice to know how everyone feels about PP, and the fact that I came from there originally makes me very offended by some of the comments I've seen here.

I'm sorry I wasn't good enough of a member from Poke Portal for you all.

And Karen, I still can't believe you, I really can't, you may be the worst of all considering you were a staple of Poke Portal and a well known member. Just because Brian's there now it's suddenly to be avoided completely like the plague? It's interesting to know how highly you regard Brian that simply his presence there trumps every other person who might be there, I thought there were people there that you liked and respected. Then again I guess I shouldn't talk, I haven't returned either, but I certainly wouldn't insult the place.

I'd be okay if we merged members again. Not staff-but members.

Also Life or Death would have to be merged, too xP

Brian isn't the only reason.

@Jonny - And remember how after the merge the PP ended up failing?
