Okay, here's the message I get when trying to go on IRC:

ERROR: Your host is trying to (re)connect to fast-throttled.

WHAT DO I DO?!!

Rubin · Post by **Rubin** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 3:43 pm

I don't know...

FunkyChickenFace · Post by **FunkyChickenFace** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 3:45 pm

I'm using the IRC free link. Is everyone else doing well?

Rubin · Post by **Rubin** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 3:48 pm

Define 'well', then post.

FunkyChickenFace · Post by **FunkyChickenFace** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 3:50 pm

I mean "able to connect" as well as "surviving without my presence to advance the plot" and also "Do we need to TIMEWARP NINJUTSU or can we pretend that the sound of frying bacon and sausages obscured any sounds Enya could make?" and furthermore "Does anybody get update lag if they're watching a forum for email updates?"

Rubin · Post by **Rubin** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 3:53 pm

Download mIRC, instead of using the piece of crap which is Mibbit.

Rubin · Post by **Rubin** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 5:25 pm

hey, a little somthing to be pointed out from IRC...

[16:18] <Neko> Auzzo you need to start getting more creative
[16:18] <Neko> you run into pets the same way
[16:18] <FunkyChicken> Donuts are yummy
[16:18] <Neko> "oh there are pets over there" "Oh ran into you"
[16:18] <Neko> <_<
[16:19] <Rubin> how dose a three forths of a pet work?
[16:19] <Rubin> 3/4 XD
[16:20] <Neko> i think he meant 3 or 4
[16:20] <Neko> not a fraction
[16:20] <Rubin> so do I, but I had to point it out.
[16:20] <Neko> also, how do you know there going to the mall?
[16:21] <Neko> im sorry but can you edit your post
[16:21] <Neko> it just doesnt...flow
[16:21] <Neko> your character just magically knows they're going to the mall
[16:21] <Neko> maybe elaborate and show how your character wakes up in the morning
[16:21] * Rubin 's eyes start glowing green "I can read your minds!"

FunkyChickenFace · Post by **FunkyChickenFace** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 5:30 pm

In other words, running into people is not the most original way to introduce your character.

Bad:
WHAM. "Oh hey, I'm (insertnamehere)!! What's your's?!"

Good:
(insertnamehere) slowly descended from the ceiling trailing lines from his hands and feet.
"Welcome to my humble abode," he said in a low and creepy voice. "My name is (insertnamehere). For what purpose do you cross these grounds?'

Post by **Dissension** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 5:51 pm

You know, from an outsider's perspective, it doesn't seem like it'd be fun to be publicly called out because others don't think you're creative enough. Especially not by several members in two separate locations.

"Hey, you suck at roleplaying and being creative, you should do it this way, 'cause that's the only acceptable one."

Seems like everyone should be able to play in whatever manner they choose, as befits their character, without people apparently attacking them for it.

Just me, though.

I can see what your saying, it's just it would be nicer if things were elaborated more in the RP. A simple "Oh i ran into someone" is nice and all, but it's a lot nicer to read something more descriptive that helps explain how your character is.

(my opinion)

I dont mind the way he introduces things, But what the heck?

if you saw 3 pets getting into a random van, would you instantly think "Hey! there going to the mall!"

Post by **Dissension** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 6:16 pm

Again, to avoid misunderstanding, I'm just an observer, I don't have any authority.

I didn't mention that part because it isn't easily interpreted as an "attack." There is a marked difference between saying "There is no way your character could have known such-and-such was going on" and saying "You're unimaginative in what you post and need to be more creative." I feel that the latter is rather subjective and in any case could be handled best via PM and with friendly encouragement and constructive advice, not in public and with (at best) a rather flippant example.

FunkyChickenFace · Post by **FunkyChickenFace** » Mon Jun 07, 2010 6:25 pm

The fine line between "flippant" and "rehashed in very short", I seem to have crossed it.

My apologies to all offended parties.
