THE HORROR!

THE SWEET CUTE HORROR!
 
A question put to the purveyor of this thread. It seems that you, 7, are a relative newbie, and yet, also seems that you've posted in the lounge in only your thread.

Why is this?

You already answered your own question. I am a relative newbie here, and I notice some threads have 'Invite only' so I would rather not butt in on someone else's thread when I might not be welcome there, so I made a thread and I watch it closely in hopes of getting to know some people.

Oh that is just fun.... especialy when its auto-michanics.

Indeed...

because this is the lounge for an SRP board. Its full of writers... Writers are inherently dramatic. If they weren't every story would be dull, boring and lifeless. So while not writing in a story we find other ways to entertain ourselves... using words... talking about words and having very strong opinions we like sharing, with everyone.
Perhaps if we had more smut happening we could be diverted to using our little brains rather than our big ones.

No, i'm not attacking you, i'm attacking the drama of it all... So quite lookin all deer in the headlights.

I was thinking about shannon just yesterday.
I dont think that thread will ever really die... just morph. or should morph.

Into interconnected one-offs in the lives of the patients and staff of the asylum. rather than a flowing story.


you've never tried to avoid drama and snarky people before have you? Most newbies do this by being polite, staying out of other peoples threads till they get comfy and learning the ropes. -nods-

Ausus: fuck you
Nina: not now, i'm having an overly dramtic bitchy moment.

Perhaps if we had more smut happening we could be diverted to using our little brains rather than our big ones.

LOL that was hilarious :D

Most newbies do this by being polite, staying out of other peoples threads till they get comfy and learning the ropes. -nods-

That's exactly what I was doing.

Wanders through, spends some time reading those responses and comments that I can read without hitting read post. Shakes head.

An interesting conversation.

Good to know we entertained you :)

I support this plan.



Two things.

First- I do think you should post. I rather would like to see where you take shannon, and I'm not sure she's as fully developed as she could be, given that she was rather quickly engulfed by a certain egomaniacal doctor.

Second.
Not fuck you.
At least not in the not fun sense of the word.
Ha! Some newbs sure. They create their own thread and lord over it. However, it's also polite to make yourself well known throughout the board, not just in one place. And finally, this would be the second time you've come to the rescue of this newbie. That means two things, either I annoy the ever shit outta you (which I'm willing to accept, cause, it's me and you wouldn't be the first. However, given that you are a general straight shooter and just put it out there, I don't think it's me). OR This one is rather special to you.

In either case, put the claws down mommacita, I'll lay off the interrogation, name calling, and general nuisance making. For a little while at least.



Write Tessa.
Do I count as people?

OR This one is rather special to you.

I don't think I have talked to Nina before, maybe just a reply to her post(s) in this thread.

I dont consider the conversation or rather the topic content thereof to be dramatic in the least. And I know its not 'my' cause but being female I do have a stake in the cause, even if i can be part of the problem. and i know you're not having a snit.. that looks way way way worse!!!

Its the snide shit that people start because they arnt being heard or agreed with OR arnt listening to whats actualy being said with an OPEN friggin mind.

i want to tell you that your feelings wouldt get hurt if you didnt keep talking to closed doors but that is an asshole move. The world needs more Vail. and people like you that acutaly take the time to explain important matters in terms that people like me, that dont give a fuck usualy, can understand. How else is shit going to change if no one ever says anything.


1. I will... soonish. have to get some of my other threads out of my head and it's finals week. BUT... that much stress and crazy making might be good to release there.

2. no its not you though yes you can have your annoying moments, like most people, and no its not him. I don't think ive ever talked to him before. I just really feel strongly about not attacking the person that is ignorant but shining a light on where they are being ignorant and promote change through eliciting curiosity and willingness rather than making them retreat from the conversation. possibly never to think of it in a positive light again, especially when it is a topic of this importance. It sets a bad example of what you are trying to teach.

I also dont like newbs being attacked straight off the bat. Everyone has to start in there own way and this is not the General Board.

I am not ignorant thank you, I have a master's degree :)

But yes, I am curious, and yes I don't mind to learn, and yes I am good in science but I have no clue when it comes to social sciences. I assume this topic counts as social science?

But I would agree both Vail and Ausus were setting that bad example of teaching that you just mentioned.

I also dont like newbs being attacked straight off the bat.

I don't know if what happened can be considered as an attack, but thanks for the help anyway. This isn't the first time I have been new on a forum, so I know some people aren't very friendly to newbies, but I can take care of myself. I wasn't intimidated by real bullies so definitely not intimidated of their online counterparts, but again thanks for the assist Nina, much appreciated :)
 
Is it always like this in the lounge? We were talking about the number of threads, then it was characters, then something else, I can't remember what, then it was the girl-boy discussion and all of a sudden bacon enters the picture somehow? I love this randomness. There is something wrong with me!!!! :eek:

There are open threads. Seriously. Go out there and enjoy them.


I don't think I have talked to Nina before, maybe just a reply to her post(s) in this thread.

I was just pointing out what I saw.

Trust me on this one, darlin. If it was an attack, there'd be debris and a mess of folks on one side or the other, there would be three threads asking for peace, another for cookies. Chaos would reign. Know how I know this? Cause it's happened before, here.

I wasn't attacking. But like you've so innocently said that you're not ignorant, nor are you a defenseless little babe. All we've done is point out your language (and had mine pointed out as well) all of which is fine.

Finally, I am not now, nor have I ever been known for my good examples. You were being ignorant, I called you on it. Deal with it. You may not be stupid, (and your language is eloquent and decent, showing that you may be quite intelligent) but your behavior was. There is a difference.

With that, I won't delve again into this. We can be finished. There is no need for anyone to ride to your rescue. You'll live to post again.

Morning Se7en and yes, we're just that random. :D

Invite Only rooms, are just that, invite only. They aren't meant for the usual kink and flow of the lounge, but otherwise, feel free to pop in anywhere. Of course, you're intelligent enough to realize that by opening a thread that isn't marked Invite Only, people can also pop in and leave random comments or may start conversations that have people getting up on their soapbox. Not really a bad thing, actually. I realize that this is a porn forum but we are a community so all manner of things get brought up from time to time. I do feel that the name calling as well as talking down to individuals should cease though. We're all adults here. Resorting to name calling is an act of desperation and childishness. We all have the right to an opinion and the right to express it, but we do not have the right to tell someone what they should or shouldn't do. Those edicts were set forth by Lit itself. Suggestion, free advise, I'm sure is always welcome.

*toes her teeny soapbox under the nearest couch* :rose:
 
So being still slightly new here, I was wondering what's the average thread count people take at one time.

I think it definitely depends on how much free time one has, how much time does he/she need to work up a post and so on...

So back to the original purpose of this thread....it really depends. (which should have been one of the poll answers) Right now I'm only writing one, but I've done up to three at a time. I think it also depends on who is the "mastermind" of the piece, or if the people writing are equal. I've had to stop stories because I was the only one moving the plot along, and that is no fun.

If that had happened before, then I weep for humanity. We are supposed to be 'writers' and so what should be the best and the brightest, or at least supposed to be.

You were being ignorant, I called you on it. Deal with it.

Nope, not going to happen, you don't get to call people ignorant. Unless you can prove your credentials, and that, for a fact, you know more, then just saying people are ignorant holds no merit as words without evidence backing them ring hollow, and that doesn't impress me, nor would it impress anyone with a decent IQ. Actually even with all the knowledge in the world you don't get to call people ignorant. With great knowledge, usually comes humility not arrogance.

There is no need for anyone to ride to your rescue. You'll live to post again.

Get over yourself, really do, or at least try to.

As for my language being eloquent and decent, I try, and its not easy given that English isn't my native language.

*Eats from the cookies and decides to refrain from entering a pissing contest online*

This has been taken to PM, just an FYI.

Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

I'm thinking about another group thread, maybe co-ed. Anyone got any grand ideas?

Top of the morning to you DarkWarrioress, How are you this fine day?

Thanks for the explanation.

As for my thread, I can't put it as invite only as I don't really know anyone here, and the whole purpose of the thread was to talk to people and get to make some friends, so closing it would defeat the purpose, so I just went on with it. No risk no gain :)

I definitely don't mind random comments that have absolutely nothing to do with the original topic. I think it was an interesting idea, but it can only go on for so long, so changing the thread into a random chit chat thread is not a bad idea to me, and any new comers can vote and leave comments regarding the original topic.

It would definitely be better if the thread is free of childish comments and definitely welcomes all opinions.

Again, thanks, and yes free suggestions and advice is always welcome :rose:

Welcome to the thread, and thanks for the input :)

I think it does make sense, but everyone has different post counts over the months and years, so this is more like what's the current thread count, or the preferable thread count.

I also agree that a thread is no fun if one person is doing all the work.
 
*laughs softly* Oh dear.. you are a gentleman, Se7en. Thank you. I blame my lack of coffee on my brain blockage for a moment. Advice, not Advise. :rolleyes: (M spank me, please :devil:)

Call me Cait, Se7en, please. Your reasoning is sound. Consider the "Invite Only" for future reference, just in case you find yourself in need of a new thread. ;)

The day found me with a small crisis to handle but now that it has been, I can enjoy that first cup of coffee my brain so desperately needs.

As for 'advice' and 'advise', I didn't even notice something was wrong till you pointed it out, so if you blame coffee, what should I blame for not noticing it when I am supposed to be perfectly awake :(

Sure, will keep the 'Invite Only' suggestion in mind for future reference :)

It's good to know the small crisis was handled. Nothing is more annoying than those small problems that jump at you first thing in the morning!!!

You're welcome. Though you are ignorant. Nothing inherently wrong with that, everyone is ignorant about somethings. Having a masters degree in another country doesn't mean you know a thing about feminism and social customs in the United States. Being ignorant of something doesn't negate intelligence in the least.

You're assumption would be correct it is the scientific study of human society and social relationships.

Hey... there was no horse involved! You are going to ruin my reputation if you keep sayin i rescue people... ITS NOT TRUE... i dont rescue people, I cant be arsed to be that nice.

Sooo... the newest topic of the day... how many threads do you have...

I have a few, i think, perhaps.

Shannon - The lovely sadistic Nurse at Masacare State asylum in the thread that will never die. Slip into a coma, yes, but not die, not for a long long time.

Mia - A psudo-apathetic demi-god with amnesia. She kicks ass.

Daniella - a musical savant, completely insane. And just what her co-character needs to get over his far to structured life.

Cicily- Next in line for the vampire throne in the north east and cant be arsed to care. Took off to learn hunting skills with werewolves and is now her covens top hunter.

Clarice - a peasant born of an empath, nothing is said of her father but she was born with the touch of death. She is the embodiment of rapture/torture.
 
That was entertaining.
Vail's right BTW, just so y'all are aware.
And I am trying to make my way back here, I'm currently writing with CT, The Fighter, and I'll prolly pick up one or two more. I would love to be working on Massacre, but it's not my turn right now. Though I could create another char (which I wouldn't mind). I don't think that thread should die.

My dead threads are all in my signature, go crazy.

*Clobber-slobber, pounces my wife*

You fucking bitch! You don't call, you don't write!!

CHEATING ON ME WITH THE FUCKING MILKMAN AGAIN WEREN'T YA?!?!!!

P.S James says hi! ;)

Thank you for the welcome! And your continued need to push this subject without realizing it's implications is, well, stupidity at it's finest. But I shall do my very best.

There was a time in the states that many referred to a black male as "boy", no matter their age. It was using language to keep a certain part of the population oppressed. Since, it would be absolutely uncouth and quite racist to do so now, the practice is uncommon at best, and used by only the most disgusting of Americans.

Take this little piece of history and apply it to the present. You yourself, (and others) have stated that to be called a "boy" would make you feel quite horrid, like a dog, and not quite as "manly". We are all to respect the fact that you are indeed "manly", and it's socially constructed that we respect this fact about you (and others).

But, you persist in calling grown and adult women, "girls". And you hide behind the fact that "some girls like it", and that many people say it, therefore it must be okay.

It isn't. Furthermore, it is quite rude, and infantilizing to do so to adult women. Again, we are using language to oppress a certain group. While it's not a huge thing, it is one piece, and that one piece adds to the overall picture of misogyny, patriarchy, and so on. Regardless, that some women may like it, I do believe that this particular word choice is and should be up to the individual woman.

I hope that I've made this absolutely clear, and that you're continued obtuseness is neither cute nor endearing.

Otherwise, welcome to Lit!

Fuck me...like fuck me 5 pages over...

I am AWESOME!!!

I inspired all this crap over calling CT a 'good boy'??! :eek:

I've totally still got it, I'm amazing....I think I'll just go fall all over myself like ya'll did over my words

*Cracks up laughing*

He-fucking-larious!!! I'm tellin' ya!

Side note to CT - You know I love you like a big brother babe :kiss:

I see, makes sense, everyone is ignorant, as no one knows everything. And yeah I have no idea about feminism in the United States or anywhere for that matter, only very few bits and pieces.

Nothing wrong with you... I think the only time the brain doesnt wander all over the proverbial map is during orgasm.

I'll take your word for it :D
