Fixed that for you. 

On that note, I finally have something to contribute to this thread, despite my initial lack of support for the very idea [i]of[/i] this thread.

I decided to join a 1x1 roleplay, because I had a hankering for a decent plot without the restrictions of a public thread-based roleplay. Things got off to an okay start, though my partner's character was a tad Marry Sue. Then I got a bit distracted by some other stuff. About thirteen hours passed without my giving a response. That's not even a whole day. To put that in perspective, I work twelve hour shifts.

So, this unnamed person kind of jumps the gun by stating that "I Guess you aren't so interested in the rp anymore...I can take a hint..."

Now, this really put me off. I don't like feeling pressured to write a response, especially when I'm still within what is generally accepted as a reasonable timeframe. 

So basically, this girl's insecurity came off as a little too overbearing, which killed any drive to make a story with her for me, hence my slightly snide response to what you said above, Torn.
