[OOC] A New World of Gods Chapter 2, The Rise of new Civilizations

[Gardevoiran]

I'll be back in a while, gotta do a thing.

[Ace of flames01]

OK. First time playing a villain. Sorry if it isn't that great :\

[Ace of flames01]

@Slendy because he's dumb XD

[Ace of flames01]

@lugubrious aaaaaay! You want in on this?! I see you trying to hide from me! XD

[BlackPanther]

@Ace of flames01
dude.
nice job with the villain
and you did well with flowey too :)

[Lugubrious]

@lugubrious I see you lurking, you wanna get in on this?

@Cuccoruler

Quite the opposite, in fact. I'm only here confirming that everything is proceeding in a fashion entirely unsatisfactory to me. There's little buildup, little detail, and little meaning behind much of anything. I'm still getting the vibe of teenagers goofing around with superpowers, not gods. Blatantly ripping off the inklings seeming in particular poor taste, not to mention the Golden Spider from Asura's Wrath, as well as Flowey from Undertale. In general, the unoriginality is staggering. The fact that Cythella is still alive and Rhona is healed again effectively moves any chance of either drama or consequences for actions since death is a slap on the wrist, barring future developments. The amount of world-building is mediocre and uninteresting, as tends to happen when you just magic fully-developed civilizations into existence with the snap of a finger, but without really getting into detail. Instead of advancing civilization and incredible miracles, we're getting a couple of cobbled-together love stories and a little drama.

You'd be correct if you think I'm being persnickety. I was involved in a fantastic gods-related RP called Divinus. It was set in an original world, with entirely original characters, a system of 'might' that governs what the gods are able to do, and as such a slow but steady and fascinating progression. Take a look if you like. The idea is that two over-deities, Invictus and Fate, created the gods from nothing in an infinite void. As they struggle with being newly incarnated, an orb appears that they are asked to imbue with fragments of their power. From this orb the cosmos is born, and a barren planet beneath them is available. The gods start with little power, and things happen gradually. In this RP, though many of the gods seemed human, you can definitely get a sense of godhood from them.

So even if I were to join this, I would be doing something completely different to everyone else, effectively making my own story. And that's something I can do anywhere else.

@Lugubrious

Well, we are just starting out and getting our bearings on how we should move the story about with the new stuff. Besides, it's nice to just have some fun for a bit. Everything will come soon enough, why not enjoy the time where we're not putting our characters through hell, and throwing them into the pits of despair and dark emotions?

[Ace of flames01]

@Lugubrious OK. I am going to try to say this without completely going awall. We do this for fun. We are not professional authors. We understand that you have no interest in this rp. However. For you to have to list everything that is wrong with this rp and then compare it to another rp that you call "adequate", in totally uncalled for. You could have simply stated that you were just making sure that you were still not interested in the rp and stopped there. Let me remind you, WE ARE NOT PROFESSIONALS. We do this because WE ENJOY IT. You cannot expect us to meet your standards of literature and you have no place to criticize this rp, especially when we never asked for it.

All cucco asked was if you wanted to join in. All you could have, and should have, said was no. You did not have to go into detail just to insult this rp. Simply put, it's rude.

While I understand why you would linger if you were interested, it does not make sense, in my personal opinion, for you to stay here when you have made it quite clear that you are not interested.

In short, please leave and do not come back. Have a nice day. :)

[Ace of flames01]

@BlackPanther thanks XD of course if he sticks around, please know that Leon will kill him xD

[BlackPanther]

@Ace of flames01

@Ace of flames01

I don't think this level of aggression is warranted. I made it clear before that I wasn't going to join in, but a couple of you asked me anyway, so I thought you might be unsatisfied if I didn't explain myself. What I mentioned isn't about standards; it's about what I personally enjoy, as an explanation for my departure. I am not by any stretch of the imagination a professional, and I wasn't demanding it of any of you. I do what I do because I enjoy it too. Do you honestly think I was criticizing for the sake of being mean? Preposterous. I was offering tidbits to think about: ideas and methods you might have not considered. So you know, I was lingering because of the possibility of getting interested again, and I also did not say that Divinus was better than this RP. I was thinking that if someone took my criticisms into consideration, I would shrug and give the RP a whole-hearted chance, but now that I've shown my true colors as some evil, critical troll I don't think a single person would be alright with that.

As a writer, who loves helping out other writers any way I can, I thought I could contribute a couple of notions that people could look at if they liked. Foolishly, perhaps, I assumed that people might 'enjoy' broadening their horizons as writers and improving. I had not anticipated that at a few less-than-coddling words someone might lash back at me so, and make me seem the villain. Please forgive me for my hateful, malicious, utterly odious comments--I'll crawl back into my hole and leave you to play in peace.

[Ace of flames01]

@BlackPanther OK... Hmm... How should I do this...

[Ace of flames01]

Ooooooow... I burned my finger xD

@Lugubrious

Sorry I don't mean to be rude or provoke anything...
but you really don't even need to be here.
We're again not authors as previously mentioned by someone else,
and we're not chaining you up like "join this rp now or we kill you".
In any case we just calmly asked you if you wanted to join, and a simple no would've been fine.
Also you really didn't have to say that this rp is garbage compared to your own.
I'm somewhat of a writer and good sir, I assure you, my style of writing can completely work with this.

Also giving in some form of resurrection isn't entirely horrible, as it gives people a second chance.
Mainly so they don't have to think of another character to use, but also for a bigger reason,
considering these are gods.

Good day.

~Local Produce

Edit: Also apologies to the current people in the rp if I provoked more of a flame war.

[Ace of flames01]
