[quote]Please, point out flaws with these paragraphs[/quote]

OK.

[quote=@SleepingSilence]
[@Odin] If it helps, I was going to point out people bitching about others personal grievances, is some of the most petty goddamn shit I've ever seen. Then I was going to post a gag clip, (spiderman 3 how it should of ended, with the line "You don't understand, I'm sick, that makes it okay to break the law.") to point out the semi-irony of calling out someone else's calling out. While playfully defending being sick for my moodiness. But deleted it figuring, if someone really wanted to, they would be bound to bitch at me and prove my banner meme will never die...[/quote]

Very interesting, little relevance. Very nice, I have nothing with Spiderman so I have honestly no idea what the hell you are talking about here and your entire point is lost on me because you prefer to make a very niche reference to something I might not understand. This would be fine except ... well I'll come back to it.

[quote=@SleepingSilence]So I mean, I've never said someone can't point out spelling errors in my (actual roleplaying posts) or give me advice/critique. But some people are too piss drunkenly stupid to not know the difference with text speech and writing.[/quote]

Correct, you probably never said that. I wasn't saying you said that so we're all good. However, your demarkation of what can be critiqued and what cannot namely, '(actual roleplaying posts)' seems rather arbitrary to me. Yes it is text speech - okay, boohoo, I'm telling you you look like an idiot when you say 'spell check your work' and then proceed to, yknow, not do that just because 'muh text speak.' You look stupid.


[quote=@SleepingSilence][b]No one -needs- to read my bitching about writing.[/b][/quote]

Somewhat correct. But I have to read your posts to be able to figure out whether I wanted to read it or not - that is, until a block function is implemented. 

[quote=@SleepingSilence][b]No one cares about text speech in casual chats or conversation.[/b][/quote]

I care.

[quote=@SleepingSilence]You want to point out my writing flaws that badly? Go through my own goddamn writing on my roleplays and tell me what I could do better.[/quote]

That'd probably cost me a lot more time than it'd give me personal satisfaction for proving you wrong, so I'm not going to do that - maybe when I have more time available I'll take you up on this. [quote=@SleepingSilence]And if you find an actual problem. I WILL fix it and even thank you for it. Even if the things are outright dead, just to prove a goddamn point.[/quote]

Ah but see, now we're entering another problem I already saw in your previous post - let me find it for clarity and completeness. 

[quote=@SleepingSilence]So many people can't even do that, and I have a feeling at least one person in these 177 pages has been critical about someone's writing ability yet, put absolutely no added effort in their own posts. Spellcheck your work. Cut out repeated words and sentences that add nothing to the post. You're suppose to be making your writing actually interesting to read...have something, anything dramatic happen in your post. (An argument, a fight scene. Whatever actually builds plot or character.) Don't just explain how a character feels, or purple prose about a landscape and exposition dump. Make your post engaging or build up to something interesting. Making long wordy posts that are slog to read doesn't make it any better than someone merely posting a few concise paragraphs.[/quote]

Right, who decides all these things? Who decides what an 'actual problem' is. You? You just said you need to write so your post is interesting. Interesting to who? Interesting to the reader, naturally. If I am the reader and see what I consider an error in your writing whether it is spelling, grammar, or just prose, am I not entirely right to say it is an error because I, as the reader, find it disturbing or uninteresting? I am the reader - therefore I am right. You are telling me you will edit your post to my whims and desires just because I find it to be an error? Very interesting. 

Secondarily, I disagree with about 99% of what you propose is 'good interesting writing' or something of that sort. To quote from above post; "You're suppose to be making your writing actually interesting to read...have something, anything dramatic happen in your post..." and "Don't just explain how a character feels..."
 
What kind of nonsense advise is this? Life isn't an anime - 'dramatic' things don't happen around the clock. 90% of life is boring dull moments. Yes, you don't need to describe these things, I agree that that is not interesting to read. But, shit, do we have to have every post contain a fight, argument or a murder case? Is [i]that[/i] truly what is considered interesting writing on RPG? I fear the day I post a roleplaying post that simply describes what my character is doing without including at least a swear word or fight. 

Besides drama, 'explaining how a character' feels is very important. Do you want to play with a puppet that does what you want without rhyme or reason or do you want to play an actual (human) being with feelings, emotions and all of that? Your post makes it seem like you don't - after all we can't describe how a character feels. I'm sorry - I find husks very uninteresting, and I guess if this is how you RP, you will lose my interest very fast. 

And here's the kicker - all of this wouldn't need to have been said if you just constructed your post a bit better and made sure not to make yourself look like the authority on what is good writing. 

[quote=@SleepingSilence]If you don't know the difference, learn it fast or stop bitching like you're being personally attacked for my statement.[/quote]

I don't really feel that way.

[quote=@SleepingSilence]Edit: How is it hypocritical to say, everyone is flawed and plead for people to take constructive criticism and fix their roleplaying posts to make the experience better for the readers [b]that need to read[/b] to know what's going on? Please, point out flaws with these paragraphs that I wouldn't even need to make if I wasn't responding to your own ludicrous personal whining against my general statement...[/quote]

I guess if you wanted to make the experience for me, as a reader of your post, better, you would've chosen not to include some vague reference and monologue about... what was it, Spiderman 3? Or as you put it, I couldn't enjoy what you tried to [quote]make ... better for the readers [b]that need to read[/b] to know what's going on[/quote]. Seems very, [i]very[/i] contradictory with what you said here. 

Just like you say I didn't need to read your text-speech post, you didn't have to reply. But you did. Why? 

Coulda just ignored it.
