Quote:-History (going to be written in instead of me explaining it through progressive stories since no one likes it when people do that)-

But I liked that way of story telling. So, out of curiosity. What kind of story telling do you (community) prefer?

<strike>One that isnt crap, </strike>that is different, and shows a unique persepective of a faction from soneone's eyes.

Pryson and Everlyn Lynx is an example.

Eva's diary.


Has to be intresting, have the right balance of action/adventure, romance, quiet, and suspense.

First, who are you to decide about someone's writing qualities? At least they tried. That's what counts. They don't need snobs to degrade their works.

Secondly, why should we always try to innovate? Trying too hard ends just as well as when you don't care. If you do not feel comfortable not following a basic guideline, why should you take it? It's not you. What's important about a story is that you put yourself into it, not its format.

I'd go deeper with this, but I doubt you'd care.

Ok, yeah, that was wrong...

And Card Captor, do go in deeper.

Who are you to decide what I care about?

I'll write you an essay when I'm back home from college. I already have on to write about ''L'Étranger'' right now. Blargh.

Wow, sudden burst of interforummember-rage?

Anyway, on topic:
My favorite story-telling style (at least I think so, since I've never read a story in this style) is that of a documentary. Yeye.

As much as I find this insulting I will retrograde away from commenting on matters of this nature.

I have spent 3 years organizing over 30 RP stories to fit into one Story line. Ever single Char I have made all had connections to one RP storyline. Every single one, =LSF= to my DSE Repair ship. I have spent 3 years making background upon background upon background to tell the story I am now with the CrossBones Foundation.

I have written the main story in many different ways. The way that I choose for CrossBones Foundation was in a way that allows other people to get exerts of main points of the story. While the full story can be told in pages and pages of poetic rhythmic dynamics I have found that the community does not need it in order to tell the story.

If I had ample time to write the full story I would. Believe me there is so much that is missing and the only thing that hinders me is time.


Before using anything of mine to extract compare and contrast please ask me first.


Thank you.


My favorite; Is documentary style.
