List made by MAjor Ursa to get your cs

[chukklehed]

Esailia, i have a feeling the Trader your character bartered passage with should totally be Luna.

[WitchChild]

Anyways, now I am no longer accpeting since now we have 20 characters. Ontos is considering dropping out due to the number

[Major Ursa]

That many characters?! Wow, don't mind me if I ask you to summarise a long post, this sounds like an RP with a lot of reading in the future.
>.>

[Peyote]

I don't mean to sound like a bitch, but if you need a post summarized I don't think you're in the right roleplay.

[chukklehed]

oh really? and what if you haven't been on in a few days, and people are writing a post an hour?

[chukklehed]

not everyone can be on every day, and when you get a group this big you tend to miss whole pages at a time.

[Major Ursa]

I'll probably only ask you to summarise if I've missed a round of post, or if the post is 5+ big detailed paragraphs, or if you post wall of text, or if your character hasn't interacted much with mine up until mow and I've missed an interaction or two...other wise, casual quality posts I'd be caught up in...

Y'all can ALWAYS ask me to summarise my IC posts, if you don't understand anything. You can even ask me to summarise the OoC, if he have a random yet relevant discussion that takes up pages. I won't mind.

[chukklehed]

Wall of Text... My ancient foe. We shall meet again on the field of battle.

[Major Ursa]

Augh, long detailed posts of hype over nothing...why would I care that your character is red headed, but dyes her hair black, what sound her nails making when she's tapping them on the marble countertop as she waits for her tea earl grey tea (which she takes with a sliced wedge of lemon, though if it was a frickin' rose tea, she'd take it with milk and sugar-) to brew. That doesn't have to be two paragraphs, let alone three! One paragraph max for that stuff. $#!t.

I mean, I understand people like to add a lot of detail, as a form of creative writing outlet, I really do understand...but please, when I ask for a summary, please just give me the short of it.

[chukklehed]

i agree. a bit of detail is fine, but don't go off on a tangent talking about what kind of metal your sword is made out of.

[Peyote]

I actually didn't think of it that way, tbh

[chukklehed]

see? we're not just lazy sods.

[Peyote]

I didn't mean it that way. Dx

[chukklehed]

i know, i'm just making you feel bad cause i'm an asshole.

[Major Ursa]

Example:

Paragraph: Delilah turned her head, her slim neck half covered by the curtain of her red hair draping gently over it as she pursed her lips, gazing intently into the rugged man's eyes. The intensity of her eyes were amazing, brilliant green like an emerald, with flecks of gold surrounding her deep, black pupil...her eyelashes fanned and flared, like feathers of a territorial peacock, yet somewhat demurely as she gazed at him. With the intensity of her stare, she could see and feel his gaze move to her. An angry, smouldering like hot and smoky coals sort of gaze, that lit the flame of her heart like no other. Despite herself, her porcelain white face flushed a hot red, only a few touches lighter than her long locks of curly red hair.

Sentence: Delilah stared intensely at the man standing across the room, blushing hard not a few moments later when she was caught staring.

Of course, that paragraph is acceptably short...cause I didn't go into detail about how long and pale her neck was, much like a swan's, or how plump and delicate her lips were, damn high cheek bones, tapered fingers, small and gently shaped ears--WHAT. THE. FUC%.
