isleep2late used Growth!

Wow. What an absolutely crazy past 24 hours it has been. Not only did I become a father, but I just happened to check my YT channel and I hit 50k!! Halfway to 100k. With the rapid growth my channel has been experiencing, I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart. Now for some big announcements to this website. I've been receiving a lot of constructive feedback on how to improve the user experience, and the following changes have been made:

1. Team Support: I'm happy to announce that you can now submit full teams to the database (2-6 Pokemon). This was a request from multiple users as it would seem the interactions/team-building aspect of competitive Pokemon was just as important as developing individual sets. You will need to fill out a description for your team, and if approved, all 6 of your pokemon will also be submitted to the individual moveset database.

2. Additional member-exclusive features: Those who are registered members can give a 5-star rating to movesets and teams in the database. You will also receive notifications within the website whenever someone replies to your comments. Don't worry - we will continue to never send you any emails! (Please note that we will continue to develop additional perks for registered users in the future.)

3. Boilerplate stuff at the bottom of the webpages: Please note that I have added some (perhaps legally necessary) stuff at the bottom of these pages for transparency, including an About Us, Privacy Policy, and Terms of Service. The too-long-didn't-read is that I (the owner of the website domain) can see how many people visit this website, and what country these visitors are from. Depending on how much traffic this website routinely gets, I may need AdSense to offset the cost of maintaining the website. Donations aren't required, but are always appreciated.

4. Minor bug-fixes and feature improvements: I've added some additional improvements to our Tools, including Ice Scales for our EV Optimizer (even though this isn't a Gen 6 ability, it was probably desired) and Nihil Light for our Gen 9 Type Coverage (this is not available in Scarlet & Violet but is technically listed as a Gen 9 move as it is in Legends Z-A).

And with that, I hope you enjoy your stay at Hackmons Hub! I will be busy parenting, but will continue to be involved in maintaining the website. Again, I have a great team of admins: Enigmatist, electra, and Siphonaptera. And as far as the frequency of these blog posts, there is currently no fixed schedule for when we will roll out an announcement or article. I figured once or twice a month would suffice. We are still looking for someone from the Balanced Hackmons community to join our team, so if you are interested or know someone who is interested, please join our Discord and send me/one of our admins a DM: https://discord.gg/mTwgNNtE6a
