My Very Brief Bio

Male, 33 years old. (I'm even more dead than before.)

Likes (other than writing and roleplaying): I'm into all genres of music. I love to cook. I love the outdoors, and walking through the park near my house. (Yes, really.) I read a lot of thriller/mystery novels. And I usually watch seasonal anime. (Or cooking shows. Because Western Media provides even fewer things that are worth watching.)

But as for my many other neglected hobbies, I've played basically every sport. (Soccer and Bowling being my favorite of the bunch.) And I'm trying to play more video games. (Going through my never-ending Steam library.) Plus, I've dabbled in making electronic & metal music, and I used to play a number of instruments. (Guitar, French Horn, etc.)

Hope you have a wonderful day!

@BrokenPromise Sorry, I think I simply misread what you wrote, it was late at night when I replied. My apologies for misrepresenting that. Though I still think my point remains that seems like odd for a good writer to do in the first place though. (I suppose where your nitpick comes from.)

Maybe I inferred that from being able to tell they didn't have English as their first language, which seems impossible, to know someone isn't even English from their typing and yet also be a fantastic writer on top of that (in English). But I digress, I suppose you don't wish to continue down that particular the line of discussion. Didn't mean to misconstrue anything.
Okay, does this mean music that fits me personally? (myself being the character?) (Or regarding my persona online?) Or just character's I've written and their theme songs? I'm assuming the latter opposed to the former. So I'll post a handful characters and their theme songs. (Though I usually already find/have theme songs for character's I've wrote.)











(Didn't have one in mind for this one, but very first song I thought of fits distrubingly well enough.)






(I've also noticed just how little I've gotten to use characters, or characters I never finished for various reasons. Many characters I've made have been deleted with time. I miss finishing the roleplays I start. -.-)
@beyond visions I sent you a message back confirming what I've read, (hopefully I'm not wildly off base.) if you want me to write something inserting myself in the scene I can do that too. :3
@beyond visions Just letting you know, because I'm finally confirmed that this is happening. I've been getting mixed explanations about possibly on going on vacation to see my sisters in California. (When I say mixed, I mean not knowing if I'd be going at all or when. Or for how many days.)

So I know for a fact, I'm going July 15 and I'll actually won't return until the following saturday. (The 22nd) So I'll be without a computer for 7-8 days. But that won't necessarily stop me from staying caught up or posting. (Though it will have to be from my phone.) I will certainly try, but it will likely be shorter posts and might be a little harder to contact during this time. Just giving you this information. Not sure how relevant this will be, but just a fair warning.
@Mr Allen J (The high pitch singing, or the harsh vocals? Or specifically the combo of them? But yeah it's quirky. The album is a weird one. :P)

7/10 I enjoyed it, mostly the little bits of guitar and the female vocals hold it together well. The actual hook wasn't particularly strong for me.

This topic is for all sorts of nit pics, and I was simply mentioning one I haven't seen in here before. He had a great personality, and was very cooperative. You don't stay friends with someone without occasionally get irritated with them.


Of course, at least I wish that's how most people viewed friends, online and offline. And not disposable like most actually do. But I was more commenting on, "He needed to plagiarize, every time he roleplayed and to increasing extremes, to barely reach an English comprehension of his peers."

And yet...Top five people I've roleplayed with. Like I've had a bunch of -nice- people I've roleplayed with...but some just weren't very good roleplayers or writers in general. I could still be friends with them and acknowledge I've probably come across, at least slightly better writing in my experiences. But if what you say is true, that someone who you could tell didn't speak English as his first language, solely on his typing abilities...but is still better than everyone you've roleplayed with. It says a lot, hence why I remarked you need to find better people (as in good enough to at least be literate, without stealing words from others.)
Banned because I'm actually tired at 11...like seriously what is wrong with my body? It's working like it's suppose to? D: How else can I stay up for hours and accomplish nothing?
@BrokenPromise I see and don't get me wrong. I can see that being quite frustrating. Stealing paragraphs of others writing and calling it your own is pretty bad. But usually people who aren't typing their first language, you can generally tell. I suppose your luck with roleplayers must be worse than mine, if someone that pissed you off and is still in your top echelon of writers you've dealt with. Maybe you need to find new people. XP Though I suppose first experiences like that, I can understand why one wouldn't bother to do so...

But of course people do this. 'This' being finding some kind of inspiration in their favorite show or song or whatever. Everyone does to greater or lesser extents. Creative people will be influenced by those who inspired them to be creative. It's just how creative people work. There really isn't such a thing as an original idea.

There's some fine lines between inspiration and copying. But in the few cheapest cases I've done it in, it certainly was never in writing I'd expect someone to take seriously (aka RP's) and the few times I've done so is generally a single line that fits and isn't forced. It's also vague enough that it really could have been from anything. (Though I also tend to show the music off, since I usually get the feel for a scene as a whole with it. So I certainly don't hide that it isn't mine, when I do it.) But I digress. I don't know if it would make you think more/better of that person, if they admitted that's what their doing. Doesn't sound like that going to happen.

Though the part about needing to match other levels when you're not good enough, tends to not go well anyway. Probably not an enjoyable path for either party and maybe that's a thing you should straight talk about, especially if you actually like this person or if their the sole reason an RP is being drug down. ('The Anchor', is the honorary name.) Though most people I've seen, aren't at the level they think. But that's a whole different can of worms.
