[quote=@LoneSilverWolf] Sorry, but when someone comes off as attacking my friends, I get very defensive. I'm fiercely loyal to those that I care about, especially when I feel they are being wrongfully judged or treated. Yeah the first person can be a bit of a surprise in a predominantly 3rd person RP, but still, each perspective has their own merits, their own strengths and weaknesses. I think people be open in how others RP, because it's how awesome RPs are born. Maybe I came off as a little strong, but that's because I felt someone who is like a sister to me was being attacked. [@The Grey Dust] I never said I had a doctorate, I was merely stating I know a thing or two about writing, I'm not just someone who has ever only written as a hobby here and there. And who cares? Some may not feel it clunky at all. I certainly don't. I think it can be a bit of an eye-raiser the first few times you see it, but it doesn't mean it's a bad style and you shouldn't bash someone just because "they are the minority using it." No, that is a BS reason, and we all know it. [/quote] Your gross overreaction has been duly noted. That being said, you did agree that it is a bit jarring to see it at first, hence I stand by Natsu's evaluation. However, should she care to continue to use it, I'm not stopping her. Speaking of styles, you folks don't mind if my posting style is more often composed in overtly purple writing, and generally string together a stream of run-ons as I will abuse the hell out of commas, subjecting you all as the colon and semicolon sit unused on my keyboard along with the lonely period button of which shall at most glean some attention once-in-a-while for moments where I decide to terminate my thoughts to which until then only the commas shall suffice and sate my needs in constructing the sentences that extend unto the upper echelons of the bearable limits in sustaining syntax to the point of nearly being mere length optimization for the scaffolding of filler material that shall give my writing the appearance of grandeur despite the lack of anything meaningful to be extracted from the pretentious use, or perhaps rather disuse, or misuse of punctuation proper.
