vetting

Hello Aelin, welcome to the server! They are the 303rd member. To be vetted, please say something @Aelin.

joined the server.

I’m saying something. I stumbled upon the wiki for this place and I said “I am so confused, how do I find out more”

Hello new person

to clarify, when you stumbled on the wiki, do you know absolutely zero about what phijkchu is, who rob is, etc

Absolutely that. I was looking for a list of Pokemon with mustaches and found that entry on the wiki. Old man Willikers and Snorlax with a drawn on mustache caught my attention.

I did this totally backwards and understand if I need to be kicked out 😅

No its fine lmao

you are not the first person to find the wiki for unrelated, pokemon reasons and join out of curiosity

Oh thank god

The wiki is like, insane-looking though, no?

also welcome new person

It totally is and I love it so much

Thank you!

so as a brief crash course, old man wilikers, aka rob, aka rawb, aka pkmnrob was an old school internet person who had his hands in a lot of things. One example is he was a very early adopter of making nuzlock content on twitch/youtube. Phijkchu as a group started as a group of fans of this person. Nowadays, Rob kind of lost his mind, did a lot of coke, among other bad things, and none of us particularly like him, and for the most part we just pay attention to him because he is a train wreck of a person. This group itself is moreso just a social group of internet weirdo's who hang out and do stuff/talk about things we are interested in

that is a very barebones crash course in phijkchu/rob

You are welcome to stay and hang out here if you want, although you have to answer the standard vetting question, which today because I have decided is Tiny's job to ask

OHH internet memory unlocked, Rob in that context does ring a bell now Vetting question? I’m ready!

It might take a bit, I put tiny on the spot just now

Right, standard vetting question then: You're given 4 options, A, B, C, and D. What would you choose and which would be the most common choice?

(I'm just going to steal my last poll)

Fair enough tiny

except I'm curious if you can guess the most common answer as well

C and C because it’s always C until it’s not, let’s be real

they passed the question

fair enough

good job

It was 10 for C vs. 8 for everything else combined haha

You know, some day I should compile all the standard vetting questions we've asked

and the standard vetting answers

anyways welcome to the server, like I said, we are kind of just a random group of internet weirdos, you are welcome to post, go inactive forever, or leave when you discover something about us that makes you want to leave

most people pick option 2

welcome to the server

I'll ask an addendum question

which non-mustached pokemon would you want to have Nintendo give one to

Spooky thats an awesome question

should've saved that one for an unrelated person as a vetting question

I feel like if you're googling pokemon with mustaches

you probably have some critical insight

That page probably has the best SEO of the entire wiki for the record

70% sure bobs friend found us through that page too

Haunter for sure. He needs a bushy unkempt mustache for the ages

Wait, sorry to stalk you but your linktree says you're from Grand Rapids, which high school did you go to? I'm from GR too

Oh shit no way! I went to Grandville

Oh, I went to Northern hahaha I went to Grandville for track a lot

Ah dang I was marching band, we probably wouldn’t have crossed paths

I did not want to say I stalked your profile as well, but I was going to mention either kribbles or mint was going to jump you when they noticed

Mint lives in Marquette

I was in marching band too, but I definitely sucked at it. I played trombone though

Oh man I very briefly considered going to college there before I realized it was goi g to be so much colder haha

Kribbles, this is where you drop that you used to be a menace who terrorized the marching bands while you ran track

popped out of the woods and spooked them

Kribbles being in marching band and track make complete sense to me

Swimming and hockey too, those were my sports

I will not elaberate on why, or what stereotypes I think I have for those two groups

How do you do 2 sports, track, and marching band?

Kribbles is the certified cult walking addict

idk about marching, a bit of a stretch

I barely had enough time for all my AP classes and my two extra curriculars.

I tried each sport like 2 years idk. Although I did track every year. But you have fall, winter, and spring sports

Fall was cross country and marching band, winter was swimming or hockey and spring was track.

ahh right right, seasons

All I am saying is, Kribbles might be better at blowing than most of us here

Anyway, @Aelin we missed out, I was in Grand Rapids until last week, now I've moved back to my job on the east coast :(

Terrible timing! Where on the east coast did you end up?

Rhode Island

Hey they got ocean there though! That’s like Michigan lakes, but bigger

(I know nothing about Rhode island I’m so sorry)

Well, people here don't realize how big the great lakes are lol. When I tell them lake superior is larger than the entire state of Rhode Island, they are completely shocked

For a second I misunderstodd and thought you meant people in this server

and was about to argue since I literally live on Lake Ontario lmao

Well, like, 30 Rhode Islands can fit in Lake Superior

I do not know how big a great lake is

They are pretty big

wow

I had no idea the size difference between LS and RI was so stark though holy crap

Imagine a regular lake but you can't see the other side and also if you go on the lake for quite a while you still can't see the other side

Yeah if you're flying over them, you can just barely see both sides of the lake.

I have swam in every lake other than superior and michigan
