Like wtf... I hope this doesn't interfere with our mod server >_>

Edit: Scroll down to post 4 (in this topic). This new program will be a blessing for us.

PO's staff have not been very supportive when it comes to mod servers in the first place, this can't be any worse.

Let's try and see this as a positive thing, the worst thing is that we'll stick with PO if it has no modding. If we get lucky, then it'll be better than PO's modding.

I guess if it has a good mod system then we could switch over. I was thinking more of what would happen if we stayed on PO for mods and everyone else switched to PS for standard and we had no audience.

I missed this part in the first post:
aesoft
 
* Easy moddability: PS's mod format makes it easy to implement your own moves, abilities, items, and pokemon. CAP and streetmons are already implemented.

So it looks like PS will actually be really easy to mod. This actually gives us a good opportunity. We could become the first real mod server on Showdown, which could be huge for our membership. It's a good thing that we started discussing the mod list last week. We already have a head start over other people trying to run their own mod servers.

This sounds really cool then, lol. Now we can finally do something about traits like Slow Start, and it means we can test out Stealth ???.

edit: and we can create gsc649!

You know, for some reason I always thought that Spikes was weaker. I didn't realize that the first use was 12.5%. That's the same as a neutral Stealth ??? will do/SR does right now.

This makes it interesting because now S? is only a single-use Spikes, except it can hit Flying types. Suddenly this looks like a suitable nerf that isn't overpowered anymore, yet still has its own uses. I'm liking the thought of it.

Of course, we will still mod responsibly (or you could say, "in moderation"), but the SR type change was something that we discussed even before PS was announced.

can't we use both?
no need to do an aa and abandon one sim because a newer one is out
we can have different mods for each one too i guess

It would be pointless because the majority of the population is going to switch to PS and we want to follow them (or have them follow us). Plus PO requires you to mod the database, and with the dwindling amount of players, nobody is going to want to do that even if they do stick to PO.

Look at the thread. The whole program is being built on the premise of being "PO but better". He's trying to make it so there's no reason to stay on PO.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves here, or start getting high hopes. Sorry to put a downer on everything, but:

a) This might never get released. Competitor anyone?
b) It might just be shit. Shoddy anyone? (sorry again Bear ¬_¬)
c) It might just never become popular. POL is actually really good, and already has a decent userbase. This thing will have to be VERY good to get people to switch.
