I feel like my current presence in the WWU thread is, if not necessarily bad, a sign that I should not make a WoE character, or at least that if I do I'll have to be very, VERY careful with how I play them.

Hmm, I guess I was a bit more vague than I meant to be. From a strictly writing quality standpoint I think I'm doing reasonably well, the bigger issue I'm worried about is that my posts felt like they were getting very dark very quickly. For the last few posts, I've felt relieved every time I logged the day after posting and didn't find a PM from an admin warning me about tone, and even though nothing happened the anxiety was getting to me a bit.
-
I don't think the tone of your posts is particularly dark. They certainly reflect the thoughts of a character who is hiding the way she is. All in all, well done.
-
(Belated response) Ahh, thanks. I've been worried about my post's tone for a little while now, but maybe I'm worrying over nothing.

Man, I hate being the last person to say anything for several days, in an otherwise active thread. Did I stun them with my brilliance? Were they shocked into silence by some horrible faux pas I committed? Am I droning on and boring them? Or have they just not had time to either check their computer or that thread in particular? WHO KNOWS?!

Duskfall: The big one at the moment is 'A horror and mystery thread' in the Canterlot Chronicles OOC, though there's also a thread in the creativity forum, and it's happened a few times before now.
-
Well, for the CC thread, he's still gauging interesting, and ironing things out. I suspect that would take time.
-
In some ways that seems like the most likely option. My concern is that I may have misinterpreted something as a call for suggestions, and thus can't tell whether or not I made a mistake and disrupted things with my last post.

Nah, not nervous. I've just been wondering what to do with myself for the last few days, since the last couple threads I was in fell through.
-
thats not very good i was in a couple threads that stop i just pick myself up and found some more i even make some
-
My approach has been to work on characters while I don't have any active threads, if I can't come up with any threads myself, so that I expand my options as I wait for something to appear.

I see you there, test sidebar. NO FORUM ELEMENT SHALL ESCAPE MY BALEFUL GAZE

Sad thing is, it sees youas well Ravener. It sees all of us.

"Stare into the Abyss and the Abyss stares back into you." I'm okay with this.

There is no test sidebar.

Is it worth making a character log if I only have one active character?

If you plan on using your OC a lot, you need a place to list all the thread they're in. ^_^
-
I did. I find it's a handy link, right in the sidebar, to your character's information and any other roleplays they're involved in so people can interract with you. And, who knows, you may make another character sometime.
-
Thank you all for your input, a few days ago I did decide to make a character log. Wasn't entirely sure what to put in there, so I just went with the essentials plus a list of threads and their statuses.
-
Why do I keep coming up with concepts for arena fighters?
-
I know what you mean. Most of my newer ideas for characters would be ones that would only fit in CC, since they're more combat oriented or such.
-
Same. Which in some ways I'm fine with, since I take more easily to CC anyways.
I have something of a habit of thinking up the fighting mechanics first, then building a character around them.
-
Yeah, CC is cool. I just wish I could think of more WoE acceptable characters so I can have more than three choices there. Mine tend to be in CC because of their occupations, and since they have dangerous jobs, I have to think about how they would fight. I think the only CC character I have that has nothing to do with combat is Flux, and she's only there because I couldn't put her in WoE.
-
-
...Did that really just happen?
-
I have turned cowardice into a tactic. On the battlefield, I'm the guy running away from the enemy, shooting backwards. I should work this into a character somehow...
-
First Siren OC on Canterlot! Woo! Now I just need to figure out what precisely I want to do with him.

Currently working on a story submission for a contest I didn't discover until it was more than halfway to finished. Posting may be a bit slower for the next few days
-
Jolly cooperation!
-
I cannot tell if this is or isn't a terrible idea. LET'S FIND OUT!
-
what is it?
-
Some threads I am or was contemplating joining, and maybe one I'm thinking about starting. Hard to tell sometimes whether or not I should be joining them, i.e. whether or not my character works there, if they're active or inactive and what the means for whether or not I should join, etc.

-
So, the past couple weeks destroyed me. I think I'm past the worst of it, and so now can get back into threads, but I've got a bit of a backlog now. I'm going to try to build up some momentum again.
