"It's MAY I/Say yes or no, not sure/etc." people piss me off. You're not my parent or grammar teacher, you don't get to tell me how to talk. Jul 4, 2019

      Sorry to bother, but is your xianxia/wuxia teacher quest going to be revivified in the near future?

      In the future, if you're writing in Word, hit enter twice in between paragraphs. That will still leave a space between paragraphs when you copy it over.

      You're really moving on that SV quest! Here's hoping it goes well for you.

        Pretty much. It's one thing when someone says, "Actually, it's MAY I-" but it's another thing entirely when some asshat says, "NO. Say yes or no when I ask you a question, I'm tired of people saying 'sure' when I ask them a yes nor no question." That makes me want to punch someone, because unless you're my parent or my grammar teacher, you don't get to *order* me to speak a certain way.

        In that case, yes, the correct response to such a demand is "Fuck you, eat your own teeth." I'm in full agreement.

        Complicated when said person is on the higher tier of authority than you, and when they are just nitpicking your speech not because they are actually tired of such, but because they are just wanting to vent for other reasons, which is still dickish, but heck.

      If there were a quest pet peeves thread, #1 on my list would be when someone's idea of a write-in is to try to mash two options together.

        They try to do that on a quest you were running or something?

        No, I just see it a lot in quests generally and it always annoys me. If a QM lists options as separate and gives you a limited number, it's pretty blatantly against the spirit of the quest to not even try to be clever with it and just cram two options together in a write-in.

        People don't see why they can't have both. There's a reason why, but they don't see it.

        One of the qualities of a stellar QM is the ability to show people why -- and in advance, at that.

        If I drop a story, I'll always say so, but a lot of my stuff ends up on hiatus either due to writer's block or RL getting in the way (or some combination). Stand By Me isn't dead, and it's on my list, but I can't promise a chapter in the immediate future, sorry to say.

        Ok, I just see a lot of good stories end with no warning from the author. I like your stories a lot, so I was just curious.

        It appears that you have edited the info pages recently. Do you still retain interest in running the quest?

        It's a nice Lie Ren pic. Interesting seeing him with his primary color theme cut out completely, and surrounded in his secondary one.
        If it is indeed Ren.

        Huh. Learn something new every day. It was referenced off-handedly on a threat in SV, so I decided to check it out and found this place. Good luck, I suppose.

        Stick around, if you like. The community here tends to be less acerbic and smaller assholes then on SV. Our content isn't for everyone, but the people are great. My first suggestion if you like quests is to check out the stuff by Chibi -Reaper. He writes a mean story.
