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.)

My 1X1 Interest Check: SleepingSilence's Tavern (Want 1x1 RP's? Please come in.)

Hope you have a wonderful day!

actually arguing


Man it isn't about winning, I'm just entertained.


Come on, we're all simply bored and killing time. Why else would we be here? (And my roommate gets a kick out of reading my hate fan club.)

Like, if my friend just showed up on time, I'd be playing on the Switch and everyone else would have to find another stranger to harass on the internet. ^-^'

umm... You aren't making things better man. Plus, you're kinda proving everyone's point right now...


Yeah. Not even a little. Because an asshole would've probably just done what everyone else has been doing for the past few pages. ^_^'

You wouldn't last in a day in my shoes? :3

@LegendBegins Literally everyone else who has spoken other than me (and people who haven't replied to me) have basically done nothing but call me an asshole.

I think we left civility off the train. ^-^'

Bro...


Mind, those are separate. People praised my reviews. And thought my response to people's attacks to me, were incredibly well put together.

But like you even care for the clarification.

Damn just hit him with that RKO outta nowhere


When you need ten people to circle jerk against one person.

You're not winning.

not to hold a grudge but you blew up on me when i corrected some minor grammatical mistakes you made.


You failed. It was in chat where people used slang. You know that's not the same thing whatsoever. And you weren't even correct with your corrections. Saying "you're wrong actually" isn't "blowing up". Time doesn't change this. Grow up please. ^_^

I don’t think this is the ‘gotcha’ you think it is. I’m calling a spade a spade – in my subjective opinion, of course.


It's called projection. ^-^'

Critique also doesn't have to be presented in the most ruthless, more brutal than honest way.


I don't think my reviewing style is particularly brutal or ruthless. But you can dislike it. Calling me an asshole for doing it, isn't anything but being one yourself.

I don't think you understand that. Rewriting is not advice. It is pretending to be advice.


Ironically cutting through the filler. No, that's you perverting my intentions. Whether intentionally or not. It's meant to be advice. It's not "pretending" to be anything else. You just don't like it. I don't think you understand. Or at least, you're pretending not to.

Again, you can be specific without rewriting. You can point out errors, you can give example sentences, you can move around clauses to show what is grammatically correct or not.


You can. But it doesn't mean you always should. Because I hate to tell you, all I did in mine was give examples. Moving clauses IS changing/restructuring someone's original work.

Here's a thread of people disagreeing with your methods.


Ah yes, the best example of obvious cases of two people who took something personally and spewed a bunch of ad-homs at me. Also, some of those very people told me how great my reviews were, and how my posts belonged on R/MurderedByWords.

So I don't really see that as point in your favor. But one in mine.

And again I ask, if this wasn't being made personal, how else would doing this be considered relevant?

Hopefully this clears up some misconceptions you may have had about my arguments and views on constructive criticism and why literally rewriting parts of a work would not constitute as that.


You and others don't like it. And will name call critics. Plenty of others did and do, which is why I will continue. Glad we cleared that up in the most mature and non-aggressive way possible.

@BrokenPromise So, hey I guess while I'm still around. I liked the article you posted. :D

Boy tell me about it.


Unlike everyone else on the original topic they avoided, I usually do tell it like it is. In that I'm not just spewing attacks to feed my ego. (That line is more general, than directed at you, by the by. But take it how you will.)

It's 'you're'. As a writer I would expect you to know this.


I'd like to pretend this self-aware. In knowing exactly why "your" was in quotes.

Instead of getting into pissing contests.


So...what everyone else is doing right now?
