A guide for people new to the forums

-DO NOT SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION LIKE YOUR NAME, AGE, BIRTHDAY, LOCATION, ETC.

-While on other sites like YouTube or Twitter you're encouraged to post as often as possible and become famous, here that's not a good idea and will get you flagged and possibly reported for spam. Quality over quantity.

-Report and flag advertisements or AI posts. Do not let them take over like they did to multiple popular social media.

-Don't be an annoying piece of garbage to other people and remember that the world does not revolve around you.

-Points and the amount of posts or reactions you have do not matter. They do nothing. No one cares, all that matters is to have fun talking about and discussing Pokémon here.

-There is an edit button.

-Try to avoid making three or more comments in a row on the same discussion. If you have something you want to add, there's an edit button.

-Please do not revive old discussions for no reason.

-Flags are not a dislike or disagree button.

-The TCG Live section is pretty toxic, but other than that these forums are pretty peaceful as long as you avoid the rare discussion about controversies that appear every few months.

-PLEASE don't post things in the wrong place. Post things about the TCG in the TCG part of the Forums, things about GO in the mobile games section of Pokémon General, things about the mainline games in the video games section of Pokémon General, things about Unite in the Unite section (that is not part of Pokémon General), things about TCG Pocket in its own sections, etc.

EDIT: Added the thing about the different sections.

Feel free to link this whenever someone who is new here says they're new to the forums or is spamming or is begging for reactions, or to add something I forgot in the comments.

Also sorry if the size makes it look weird but it makes it a lot easier to read.
