Well,
I submitted a reply, and it is gone.
In short,
Sexist? I don't think so. A merely positive answer would not have resulted in a negative post on my part.
I was a Gym Leader from 1999 until this year. I know about the dedication, volunteering, judging, and teaching the younger children to play. Did I say volunteering? It is thankless, but I enjoyed every minute with all my kids. I remained positive throughout. Criticism is easy to deal out. Praise does not come so easy for some.
THey have some problems over there. I don't know if it is the LD, or main distributor, or who, but that would not be the first time that was a problem in another country. Are the children playing the game too young to earn a professorship? I don't know that either. What I do know is that they are asking for help. All you can do is tell them to remain positive, PUI is aware of the situation and is looking into it, and hang tough.
They might even be able to run their own tournaments (non-sanctioned), but you can't tell them not to post here because they have a problem. Statements like
If I offended 'mom in any way, I'm sorry. I understand her frustration. But every situation is NOT the same and I felt that her post was negative towards the players, and I do not agree with her.
There is enough criticism in the world, and sometimes things are better left unsaid.

In short,
And I felt that post was negative as well. You generally look at both sides where I feel 'mom is never sympathetic with the players.PokePop said:I answered first and with a similar answer to 'mom
meganium45 said:'mom does more in her community for Pokemon that most people
I agree with both of these statements. However, always being critical is not the way. You have to be positive towards the players, they are what drives the game. Without the players, you don't need the rest.meganium45 said:Once you get into the OP side, your life as a player is about over.
