Hello Dremp!
Nice to meet you! I also joined Smogon due to Showdown, but that was for a different reason. I have been playing on Showdown for more than a year, now, I think, but I've recently cut down my activity there. However, when I do go online, I usually hang out in the Other Metas room. I love the OM community; it's a great place that makes me feel welcome. What room(s) do you frequent? If you find you need help with anything here at the forums, take a look at our Help form, or our Simple Questions Simple Answers / Have a Question? Ask it Here! threads. I hope you enjoy your stay here at Smogon!
