@TheVisibleDarkness I hate it when they don't even explain anything like "she looks like Linsay Lohan" It's like seriously? You can't take the time to write out a neat and long description? I also hate how the title gives away the whole story. :(

IKR! and if the title sounds interesting, you'll think it's nice but hell NO! Missing words, commas and whatever!!! Erggg. I'm editing someone's story and she always re-edits it to the same mistake-ridden version and she's like "There was an error I corrected," and I'm like whatever. @Fanganator

We used to have this problem on Inkpop with pick swaps. It got to the point where a lot of us were like, if we like it enough, we'll pick it. Same here. If I like it enough, I'll vote for it.

Though I still don't think I've quite got the hang of my library yet.

@Rach3lDesiree hhehehhe YAY! wow, it really annoys me when people do vote for votes! Now I know how all these crappy stories get all these votes! Now I just read the ones with like, no votes cause they're always better haha!

@Rach3lDesiree That's exactly why I don't want a co-writer

Oh and I forgot... Thanks for fanning! XD there's a girl called Molly Louise Davies :) @MollyLouise

@Fanganator Lol she isn't my co-writer but she's impatient when it comes to editing. I have to edit five page long chapters and I expect time but what do I get? THIS IS URGENT EDIT NOW! WTH???!

@RozalittleDhampir Lol yes. I think people hardly click that vote button truly. I sometimes like it but I vote only if it was EXTREMELY good. And sometimes I ACCIDENTALLY vote for my stories for when I wanna click 'multimedia' since I'm using iPhone :P

@Rach3lDesiree No probs. :) And you wouldn't want to edit my stuff - my last chapter was over 10 pages. XD

@Rach3lDesiree Oh wow. People have lives. =_=

@Rach3lDesiree I know right? I hardly even advertise my story anymore, its so hard to get honest readers! hardly seems worth it...sometimes I start my own forums, but even then I only tell people to read if they really want to. I go ahead and read theirs , but only if it sounds good!

@RozalittleDhampir I've roamed the SYS forum, and there's, to be frank, a lack of good pitches out there. Or someone tries to go all out with them book cover things. There's no happy medium.

@Rach3lDesiree that person sounds pushy and annoying....tell her how it makes YOU feel!

@MollyLouise yes, you are so right! the best thing to do is start your own, but people rarely go for the FAIR option. I hate when people say 'free reads. no catch!' and then you click on it and its all 'READ MY STORY!'. urghh...

Lol okay.., o.O Thank goodness you told me aha :P But I'm a lazy reader so SOMETIMES I just read one page and just comment saying 'Descripptive. Typos here and there. Blah blah b,ah" @MollyLouise

Reply Report

@RozalittleDhampir I told her that! She had two name's for a character and when I stuck to one name, she changed the whole thing and gave me a lecture about my wrong spelling when my iPhone didn't give a red line!!!! She didn't reply, simply ignoring my anger and said something like "Ok. Thanks."

Reply Report

@RozalittleDhampir Exactly about the free reads thing! I always just say free reads then say IF YOU HAVE THE TIME, READ MINE. But others say "Read mine and I'll do the same." urghhh

Reply Report

Ummm hello?? :P

Reply Report

@Rach3lDesiree hahahaha! wow she sounds like an a hole ( no offense...). Stop editing her story, thats what I would do! Yeah, I never go for those people, they dont even do it. I hate people who say they'll read later but NEVER do. i only ask people who are my friends on here to read now, and only if they have time. I really like when random people comment on my stories, because that means at least they did it out of free will. I also dont like ignorant people, that when you say they have spelling problems they take it as an offense and ignore anything you have to say!

Lol exactly! One time some girl said she's giving free comments so she commented nicely on my story then she posted on my wall saying to return the favor so I'm like why should I? i don't owe you. You willingly helped me and now you want a return offer? @RozalittleDhampir

@Rach3lDesiree Sorry, I was Word Warring on FB.

If I'm going to comment on someone's story, I'm going to comment with lots of detail and hopefully a good balance of what was great and what needed work. Even if I get a crappy one-liner in response.

Wow that's so rude! I had someone who randomly went to my story and said nothing but bad things and gave it a rating out of ten. I was like..'no one asked for your opinion! If soemoens going to say somethin mean, i wish thy would say why it bad and how to improve it. In fact, imma go find her now and see of she's written any stories yet.... @Rach3lDesiree
