First off, I haven't the slightest clue what OOC stands for, but it looked good.

Second.....

I know that writing stories is hard. I have the damnedest time doing it. But the next time that someone posts something on the story comnet that is only two lines long, we are going to have words, and they aren't going to be nice ones.

This is a pet peev of mine (yes I know I probably spelled that word wrong) but if you are going to add on to the story, just putting yourself into it, I will probably end up deleting your post.

The following is an example of something that is not acceptable... (Please don't take offense Talon, but it used to be your quit message (or it was somebody's))

---

Talon woke up.... and rolled over.

There are several things wrong with this post. First off. IT'S WAY TOO SHORT. Secondly, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORY. If you can't post something that effects the outcome of the story in some way, then don't post anything. I'm tired of people adding onto the story, just so they can see themselves in it. If you're going to add yourself into the story, add something that has a point.

Yes I know my comments are a little out of control, but it's really irritating to see that people have posted onto the story, only to go and see that they posted TWO FREAKING LINES!!!!!!

Next on my list of rants, If you have a comment about the story, DO NOT POST IT IN THE STORY! Post it in a seperate topic on the story comnet. It saves me the trouble of going through and deleting them when I archive the story.

Ok I think that I've done enough complaining for the night. Stay tuned tomorrow when I discuss the over commercilization of the holiday season.

Your irritated fraction,
Threeof4

Ahhhhhhh....... 3 is somthing else. Tell me honestly, how many leaders of a club can scold their members in such an uplifting way? Maybe it was just me...(and it problobly was) but how many other people chuckled a few times when reading his post? :P

I always try to have my facts strait as well as have at least two large paragraphs at least. The exit message you were thinking of is "One of these days everyone will wake up... and roll over." I had that for my IRC exit message for a while.

And, yes, OOC does stand for Out of Character.
