Actually, it was more a rollercoaster. At first I simply respected you and didn't give much care to the RP. Then I did and your writing started bothering me and it kept increasing because I was just trying to hide it. Then I finally sent you the PM, and I understand you're just trying to have fun. So while I don't "hate" your writing I feel like you're under-using your potential.

So KK are you willing to take our word for it if we tell you if you're being to harsh?

Quite, empathy has apparently been a problem of mine. That and its simpler stating what I want to say then taking time to make sure its all friendly.

And why exactly is under using my potential such a bad thing? In fact why do you all think I'm not using my potential?

As far as I know I'm doing the best I can as it is, to which you replied

In fact why is it such an issue for any of you, if I do something that you did not like, like write one of my characters well or utilise a plotline?

JR, could I ask a question?

Why is it you don't wish to improve your writing skills? I find that improving is part of the fun of playing these games.

@Troy: In your last post, when you wrote: "Loke walked into the medical wing", did you meant "medical wing", or in "Celeste's room" specifically.

Because, if it's the former, I can send Johnny to guide her to the appropriate room... Or, if it's the later, you'd have to wait for me to write something tomorrow, as I've to go pretty soon.

Oooh! OK, then I'll write something fast for him... And I'll continue with Celeste tomorrow, because KK has forced to write the concept for the most powerful pilot and mech out there...

...Gosh darn it... I don't like writing super-powerful characters... I always mess up things when I write those...

...Could someone help me with that mission?

Why is it you don't wish to improve your writing skills? I find that improving is part of the fun of playing these games.
For a number of reasons:
  • I never saw any problems with my writing skills as they are
  • All the previous RP's I've ran or took part in were a lot of fun without any strings attached
  • And all of the criticism I've been getting feels stupid. An RP should not be a place to improve your writing skills that's for threads like Writer's Bloack or World Building.
  • This RP was meant to be a fun time full of action and intrigue, instead it got turned into a mess of disturbing monsters, messed up characters and troubles behind the scenes between players.

Hey! I take offense to that high-lighted point.

...Plus, I'm working right now to solve the problem with the messed-up monsters. More Robeasts and less disturbing stuff.

[up] This is the first time you've ever given me criticism, don't treat it like you've been doing it for ages.

I'm just referencing why I hated the criticism I was getting in this RP

None of it felt justified to me, it's like Kkutwar had such a massive pet peeve that he couldn't ignore.

I could help you with that V.


Well you did say Eldritichian abominations and that usually means "Awesome messed up shit" in my head. Though everything in life should be a chance to improve yourself. So I find it pretty weird that someone wouldn't want to improve.

Describing them as Eldritch Abominations was meant to describe how powerful they would be. not how messed up they could be.

Well too bad, I don't want to improve in this RP. I never wanted to improve in this RP. I wanted to write fun things, make cool battles, not be constantly criticised on my characters and writing for being weak.

I'm not tryin to say that. Maybe I worded it incorrectly.

I won't do it anymore. This will be the first and last time.

You do realize improving your writing abilities would mean you could writer funner things and cooler battles than before right?

And why should I take your opinion into consideration?

As far as I'm concerned, my writing is fine and it doesn't need anything more to it, regardless of what you think. If you disagree feel free to walk out the door and never come back, cause I'm not changing myself because any of you dislike my writing or that you don't like my plot ideas (Remeber V I'm not changing the reason why the Eldritchians attacked Earth.)

Guys if JR doesn't atually want the criticism giving it to him isn't going to help him. Its just going to make him flustered, and he won't listen to it.

That's it?

That's F*CKING IT!!!

I don't think I've heard anything so stupid, so idiotic, so painfully dumb in my life.

So what if the GM is a weaker than you? Does that give you the right to tell him what he should and shouldn't do?

No. But what you're doing is disrupting the writing of another player. And that is unacceptable.
