I think it was a smart choice, and definitely the right idea. I don't think of this as an upgrade to PokemonElite; I think of this as a fresh start for all Pokemon community members to gather around, just as the website's name suggests.
Ah, I have a feeling he will move over here after a while. Thinking about it, after a little while, pe2k will be even more lacking in activity; if users from the forum want to stay connected with their fellow PokemonElite'ers, they will quite likely end up conforming and immigrating here.
Weren't you in the Competitive Battling forums a few times? I think I've seen you in there, your username is familiar. XD
I agree that it will be lacking in members now. I feel like I've seen more activity on here in one day than I have on PE2K in a week. It's sad. :c Especially with Dredd, he seems to be really stubborn about trying, but he's been trying for years.

I think the move was for the best. PE2K could crash at anytime, and we would lose everything. We'd never know if Ryan stopped paying for the site, decided to close it down, etc. He wouldn't come back and tell us, because if he cared we wouldn't be moving!
PE2K will either crash or die completely, I'm afraid. I wanted to put my time and effort into Crossroads, because PE2K's fate is sealed. Even if Ryan did come back, we'd have to lose everything for the site to be fixed, I'm sure. Un-merge ourself from the other server, clear out clutter, etc. Maybe we wouldn't, I don't know for sure.
No point in really staying on PE2K sadly. We did all we could, but PE2K had a good run. :C
Before attention was raised, I totally forgot that Ryan really hadn't been active. Honestly, I'm somewhat surprised he hasn't stopped paying for the site sooner. And, it's a good point; if he did care, the site would have been treated better. I'm seeing the differences with all these crazy features that are here that PE2K didn't have! We probably could have been more up to date if he were around. :/

As for the move, I think it was a good idea. I will probably stay on both sites until PE2K actually kicks the bucket, and might go back from time to time to re-read old RPs, but I don't think I'm going to be as active there as I am here. The pros of moving here massively outweigh the pros of staying on just PE2K, even though I will miss people who decide not to transfer over, like Dredd (unless he changes his mind...and I reall yhope he does).
I think I might've seen you as Winter_Cherry, but I've never really come around to saying hi. So, hi now! :D
Agreed, I'll probably keep going back and forth as well. Once Dredd leaves, I'll probably move into this forum permanently. He's really the only tie I have to PE2K now. :/ (He even mentioned that he's thinking about retiring from PE2K this September... I'm not sure what to think about that since he's been so active since I met him, ya know?)
