18. I know the feeling. When people do something badly, I want to TELL them. But...I'm too scared to. XD;

hmmmm.....

I have tons of pics that would make good secret pics, just not very many secrets. =/

Yeah, I had a friend like that too. Tried getting me into it. I was like: "No thanks." I'm beginning to wonder if that's when she decided to distance herself from me.

RIGHT NUMBER THIS TIME DX

7. Seriously, if you don't like an rper or game, either grow some balls and say it face and create drama or stfu. IT'S NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL TO CLOG A COMMUNITY WITH IT.

Hell, you can even go to [livejournal.com profile] bad_rpers_suck

1. Been there. :/

OT, ish

............. is that Larxene pissing a rainbow?

Excuse me while I die a few times.

Also, 2... who is that?

18. Honestly, I hate it when I see that go down. I've seen it so often and it is the most infuriating thing to see, especially when a serious artist/icon maker/writer/whatever is being ignored for that.

7. RP is a part of fandom too, stfu or gtfo.

12. Am I the only one trying to read the porn under these words? I don't know the fic or the author you're talking about (mostly cause I'm trying to stay out of the fandom proper until I beat the game *cough*) but... eh.

[identity profile] sarajayechan.livejournal.com 2007-04-30 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
18. Disagreed. If they suck, it's all the more reason to keep doing it, so they can get better.

Though I do agree somewhat with the second part. If these bad artists/icon makers/RPers are the type to ignore good advice and demand only praise and hearts and flowers...I hate when people do that. XD; You can't get better without being open to change, after all!

I know this feeling

SO MUCH ABYSS IT BURNS

5. Oh c'mon. You have to admit even the suggestion of it is there. Be that as it may, you should just tell your flist. I don't really think they'll dislike you for it.

12. Haha, I'd actually say that writing Abyss porn really doesn't get you BNF status automatically. The Abyss fandom isn't exactly small, but I still think it's small enough to be a bit discerning. I don't know who you're talking about so I can't really judge or anything, but...Luke seems like he'd be a hard character to RP. He goes through so many changes throughout the game.

18. Lolol they have the right to try. SOUNDS LIKE ME

17) I don't know who they are, but that picture is so pretty. What's the series/charas?
ext_6137: Yoruichi is really hot :D (Default)

16. *hugs* Aw hun, it's okay. I feel kind of silly saying this, but fiction can be unrealistic in a lot of ways, and there's a lot of stuff that doesn't work in real life.

6. LOL same here, same here.

10. SWEET JESUS I LOVE THAT MOVIE OIJGIURGR

16. Why do I feel like I know who you are? o_o

#5. All these Tales of the Abyss secrets kind of make me wish I didn't have so many other RPGs to beat first (Suikoden III for one, yeah).

#8. Man, my Mom discovered my BIG YAOI FOLDER™ a few years back and totally deleted it. :< What a sad day that was.

7. Agreed. Just skip over them? I do that.

1. I think you're trying to push yourself onto the limited time that this person may have. I know some friends IRL who barely get to breath between their jobs but for the little time we have at night, we play WoW together and that's practically the only fun they do manage to have. When they update their livejournal, they don't talk about their work but more about the things they enjoy, making it look like that's all they do, but I'm a witness to the fact that they're not.

Sometimes friends need to find their own happiness and entertainment and it doesn't necessarily need to include every single person they know. So, to get to the point, I think you're just taking this a bit too personally. Real friends are always there for their friends, fandom or personal, at any given time. That's what a friend is.

And from your words, you're not looking like one at the moment. Sorry.

7. Don't we have this exchange every week? "OMG, RP SECRET!!!" So in exchange, we get an "OMG, STFU WITH RP SECRETS!!!!" Boy, you know, I don't mind RP secrets, but if you hate them so much, why make a secret about them? It's an RP secret of its own in a way. You're more part of the problem than the solution.

7. Newsflash, this community can't cater to your own personal needs. ): Too bad, so sad. Or should I say, have a wah, man, have a fucking wah.

16. I feel the same way about Rock Lee. ♥

[identity profile] thepinkangel.livejournal.com 2007-05-01 12:05 am (UTC)(link)

5. I...don't particularly care about WHAT he is, I just know that he's a dork and his gynophobia is hilarious to laugh at ♥

18. Y'know, you really should. If they're serious about their craft, they'll use it to try to improve themselves.
...Or, I dunno, give up in a fit of wangsty attention-seeking despair. *shrug*

Feel free to give constructive criticism! I for one, as an "artist," loves to hear it instead of the multitude of "kawaii!!11"s and "kewl"s I get. I WANT to hear it. But people can be pretty touchy, so it's a delicate subject. There are ways to give constructive criticism without being rude or offensive, and helping them to improve.

But, hey, if they're like this guy I knew in high school whose style didn't change or improve in the seven years his friends knew him, then yeah. They need to give up XD

5. While it's definitely true that Guy likes women (he has nothing against them, likes them, etc.) and he takes offense against people calling him a woman-hater, the fact of the matter is that he probably represses any feelings of affection that he has for females because he can't act on them. I think that having Guy's omg overwhelming love for one of the girl characters help him to overcome his gynophobia in a fic could actually be more out of character than having him turn to another male for a relationship. As much as he might find girls attractive, etc., he can't have a physical relationship with any of them, which means that he'd either have to remain a virgin or turn toward men, at least for sexual gratification.

That being said! You're obviously allowed to not like Guy/Luke, so I'm not saying anything against that. I dunno, I'm just sort of rambling and giving my thoughts about the matter and why I believe Guy might realistically have to take another look at his sexuality, etc. If people could write a fic where Guy was straight and in a relationship with a girl and make it work? All the power to them. I just think it would be just as easy to make het pairings OOC for Guy as it would be to make gay pairings OOC for him.

Gah, that got so tl;dr. AHH WELL.

LOL WTF. Sure, make Rufus Shinra an uke cockslut because that's ALL HE FUCKING DOES DURING THE DAY.

That reminds me of a game I was in with a Rufus like that a month ago. The Rufus mun was all "lol Rufus likes control at work but he's so uke in bed c:"

W.T.F!
