The Rants, Complaints and Randomness of a Writer
This is where I'm going to put some rants of mine and some random updates to my Guild the Writer's Pub along with other random things
So I lurk around the writer's forum and I posted something asking for help and thought hey these people are pretty nice .......... yeah not so nice after my thread lived for about a month the responses I got were very rude and it didn't really bother me I just thought ' why do people have to be so stupid' that and ' I bet half these people would NEVER tell me this to my face but they will here.'

So now when I lurk around the Writer's Forum I answer questions that everyone else seems to think are too immature or lack creativity.

Anyway the point of this rant is everyone is a beginner at something at some point in there life and when they ask for help whether they’re a beginner or not you shouldn’t snap at them for asking stupid questions you should help them instead of insulting them it’s going to push them away from whatever it is they want to do.

Then some people try to justify it by saying well they need constructive critism they aren’t going to get anywhere by being babied or having things sugar coated but there is no way in hell you need to be that harsh with people unless they just don’t get it.

Also another thing that annoys me is when new writers ask for help and they say “write your own story don’t ask us to write it for you.” New writers need a push to start because most of the time they know what they want to write but not how to start it. At least everyone that I know did need a push me included and I’m very grateful that my sixth grade teacher took me a few others aside made us stay after school and taught us how to write.

The last thing is some people in the Writer’s forum especially some of the regulars have an ego too big for their own good they think they’re better than everyone really they’re not that’s why I hardly ever go to the writer’s forum anymore that’s also why I created the Writer’s Pub to get away from the snobs and attitudes that are in the Writer’s Forum.

………… wow okay I think that’s it I’ll get aggravated about something else before too long and start complaining about that sweatdrop

I gotta say this, Taione, the writer's pub is my HEAVEN! A little while ago, I started on the same dream of saving up for guild where people won't get bashed, flamed, exiled, etc., by those snobs on the writer's forum. Then, I was just surfing said forum for a little while and saw a certain banner in someone's sig that has been called a "baby's disembodied head" once. I was interested, so I read into it, and it seemed like a place that might work. I'd tried a few other places before (Including Deus Ex Machina, a guild whose name itself lets everyone who passes by it that this is the Club o' snobs) and was alittle skeptical at first, so I sent the request and kept my fingers crossed. Low and behold, I spent damn near all my time on Gaia there now, so I luffies it. I sent back the gold to a friend of mine who wanted to help with it, and told her your guy's name. Doesn't seem she wanted to carry out on it so badly, though. sweatdrop Anywho, looks like I went and rambled too. ^^ Ah well, I wish the best of luck to the writer's pub, and if there's anything I can ever do to help out, just tell me! I'd be happy to. heart
