Why bother
Forum-Index → Diaries → Why botherI've had a bad day today, both in real life and on PH, so just to relieve my stress, I'm making a list of things of things that people do on PH that bother me. This is not targeting anyone in particular and are things I've seen multiple people do.

1: Constant venting. It's okay to
vent. In fact, I encourage it to relieve stress, like I'm doing.
But if you post 15 feeds venting about the same subject, it's more
like complaining and starts to sound whiny.
2: Venting about things that are not even true. That's just lying for attention.
3: Giveaways that force people to compliment art or some other thing that a person did to be entered. That's just begging for praise. Yes, I have seen giveaways like this before. Things like "Heart this post and wish me luck on this hunt/wish me or another person a happy birthday" are fine. Things like "Heart this post and tell me what you love about my art!" is begging.
4: Nonstop bragging. Everyone brags about stuff that happened to them on PH, myself included, so I can't be mad about that. So you got a cool shiny. Good for you. I'm sure you worked hard to get it. But posting feed after feed about that same shiny? Yeah... I know this makes me sound jealous, but I don't mind people posting one feed about something cool that they got. It's just when they won't stop talking about it. I also try not to post feeds bragging about things other people gave me, because not everyone has great friends like I do.
5: People who are mad about something that happened to them and take it out on everybody else. I've seen really insulting feeds targeting everyone reading them (from my own friend too) when I didn't do ANYTHING to them. I'm sure that person's other friends were offended as well.
6: Beggars. People who post feed after feed asking for things. Seriously. Nobody's gonna fall for it.
7: People who put trash Pokemon in the trade station and auction house for insane prices. You know the ones.

I apologize for venting. Please forgive me. This is not meant to be offensive towards anyone.

You know how I lost to Groudon when it had 50 HP left?
Well, plot twist, Nappy defeated Groudon with 2 HP left! Epic!

Wow, my giveaway is getting more attendees than expected.
I also got my Ruby so I can get my Groudon egg soon.

It's a Pikachu event, and I'm earning Light Balls like nobody's business!
I am a little annoyed about this event though. The mods obviously have favoritism towards Jacharias, but this is taking it a little too far. It's not us "normal" users' faults that we don't have as many Pokemon, or friends, or whatever he has that we don't. Honestly, I'm starting to think just a teeny-itty-bitty little bit that it might kinda be going to his head a tiny little bit!
Woah. Didn't expect to get all 20 that early.
Groudon hatched! I'll name him Metro.

A person whom I put on my friendlist blocked me for no good reason - I barely even talked to them. I don't know if it was a mistake or they're holding a grudge against me for nothing??
I got a Dialga plushie!
Quick note to people - If I apologize and you don't fully accept it, I start to wonder why I bother apologizing.

Woah, what? A third Ultra Saddle??
Though it doesn't exactly make up for the fact that I lost two friends this week. Possibly three if the blocking was intentional.

Hey, berrypass!
How is my Skwovet doing? ... ... Oh, it's currently on Level 43, I see.
Well, according to some friends of mine, Prof. Oak's Skwovet is on Level 43, so it is rather close. Keep working!
Remember that I'll reclaim my Pokémon this Sunday at 8AM. Its level has to be higher than Prof. Oak's Pokémon by then.
Please keep it in your Party or in one of your Storage Boxes in the meantime.
Woah... really? On my first one?!

Got my Magma Stone, blah blah blah, you know the drill.
I'm starting a shiny Pidgey hunt... I don't know what I'm doing because now I can't redeem Heatran until after ^^;
Also I haven't gotten a Light Ball in days... I'm gonna miss the rest of the event

I came back to PH after a long time away from it. It feels good to be back.
Cool thing is, I also got my Alola thing today!
I also realized that my account had existed for a whole year!

I hatched my first Alolan Vulpix. Since the Daycare owner is weird, he calls it a Vuplix.

I'd been trying to get one for so long ;w;
