They thought I had ADD at one point -- one of the many mistakes at the hands of doctors that basically wrecked my life.

Nevertheless, if that's the case then it's probably better to make something like that clear in the first place, rather than talk like there's something 'wrong' with people actually wanting to put the time and investment into their work like I do -- there's nothing wrong with it, and I'm really getting tired of having to defend a writer's right to be... well, a writer. A lot less complications and bickering comes between people if they just make this sort of thing apparent from the beginning, but I understand that a lot of people would rather not explain the reason.

@Shoryu Magami

I never said there was anything wrong with it in the first place, I simply said I don't like it personally. You don't have to defend your right as a writer and already I said that I meant no harm. I admit to putting my foot in my mouth and I apologize if it came across that way.

@Shoryu Magami
Understood, I just thought I'd see if you'd check it out and get your thoughts. It means a lot that I was able to impress you with how it was done, put a smile on my face to know that. If you can manage to do so or decide to try it that'd be great, if not I'm sure others will!

@Cynder
Sometimes it can be good to prove it wrong, I was hesitent to share the idea I had in the first place. They loved it and then I ended out making that for it.

@CrazyShadowy

I tend to go on hiatuses like crazy as a result of stress and real life. In fact, I'm already considering going back on one.

@Cynder
I'd say go for it. As for the GM thing, the only way to improve is to keep at it and learn from your mistakes. Learning from others can be helpful as well. If you've been wanting to do it, what's stopping you?

@CrazyShadowy

Eh, maybe. I have hesitation and my rule of thumb is that if any hesitation lies, then I'm not going to make it. . yet, anyway.

<Snipped quote by Cynder>
You could probably end up offending someone like me very easily with terms like 'fluff', since I believe the quality of posts that I just spoke of is largely dependant on being detailed and taking the time to really flesh things out and make them detailed. While you don't need to post hundreds of paragraphs to do that, you also can't do it with a couple of lines. Getting 'straight to the point' can make things one-dimensional depending on how fast it gets to that point. Actually, a lengthy discussion going on in this thread right now (the one I'm working on my next reply to) directly relates to that.

@Shoryu Magami

Sorry, I don't mean harm. I just don't understand how people can add so much myself. I have a difficult time visualizing and it's hard for me to write details due to it, so maybe my problem with details relate to that. My ADHD also makes it impossible for me to focus on post Roleplaying these days unless I try like hell to sit down and drop a post every other day or whatnot. I just couldn't imagine sitting down to write a large post personally.

Cheers.

I understand how some people feel that way about longer posts. I don't have that issue, but at the same time - just for the record - I'm more interested in the depth of a person's content, not the length of the post itself.

@Shoryu Magami

As am I. It's always bizarre to me when I'm searching for Roleplay partners and they request a number of paragraphs instead of quality. I much prefer a Roleplay that gets "straight to the point" instead of one shrouded with meaningless fluff. . the exception that would be romantic fluff, though.

@Cynder
Interesting idea, I don't think I've seen a holiday one before. I can understand why you aren't sure with that.

@CrazyShadowy

More or less it's because I'm a horrible GM and am rather flaky. I don't trust myself to make this Roleplay successful just as I don't expect a million people to not drop. The concept itself, I think, is fine. It's an idea I've been wanting to do for some time now.

@Cynder
Generally speaking, I'm not interested in sci-fi. It's not that I don't think I could write it or anything -- just no interest. I can understand why some people could find the 'advanced' forum intimidating, but I honestly think it depends on who you write with and from what I can tell there's a lot of people there that're pretty laid back.

@Shoryu Magami

I find it difficult to hash out two paragraphs sometimes - I don't know if I can do anymore than that on a regular basis. Also, welcome back to the world of the waking!

@Cynder
Depends on what it is and how you feel about it, but if you decide to join this one once I get it past the check, I could reserve a spot for you.

@CrazyShadowy

My idea? It would be a holiday-based RP and I don't really know how I feel about it. And it's quite alright, Advanced and novellas are a bit too much for me. Mad props to those who are successful at writing amazing and beautifully written posts though.

<Insert Name; Will Edit Once Not Busy> {Hang-out Thread}

@Cynder
I have a tiny bit more to add to the final thing, for now as this is just the interest check it should be fine. Glad you like it, maybe you will decide to join after all?

@CrazyShadowy

Not likely. I'm partially considering making another RP myself. It'll end poorly, so I probably shouldn't.

<Insert Name; Will Edit Once Not Busy> {Hang-out Thread}

@Cynder
Thank you! First one I've ever put out and the first idea of mine to go public, I shared it with one person and they liked it, we talked a bit and added on a few things a few weeks back and I decided to go ahead and make that.

@CrazyShadowy

If I wasn't terrified of Advanced, long posts, and the sci-fi genre, I'd be joining.

@Cynder
Sometimes people are able to get the scammers' files and other stuff as well. If the scammer is dumb enough. Which is the most amazing thing ever.

@NekoMizu

Reddit is apparently a force to be reckoned with.

@Cynder Yo, That Weiss Schnee gif btw 10/10.

@Eidolen

Thanks fam.

@CrazyShadowy
Your interest check is gorgeous.

<Insert Name; Will Edit Once Not Busy> {Hang-out Thread}

@Shoryu Magami Heyo, I'm around. Hope you are doing well. Hey to @everyone else while I make an appearance.

@Eidolen

Hey there.

@Cynder
Probably just gonna post it on reddit so people can mess with the scammers by wasting their time.

@NekoMizu

That's beautiful. I love it.

<Insert Name; Will Edit Once Not Busy> {Hang-out Thread}

@Cynder
They're tech support scammers. lel They scam people for their credit card information and such. Also they sometimes delete your files.

@NekoMizu

Wow. Are you going to do anything with that information or.
