[size=1]For a long time, I thought that I didn't really care what I was called because most people have a different view point on such terms. Most of the time I was either labeled as Literate or Advanced. Somebody recently dubbed me semi-literate based on an intro I submitted that I thought was reasonably good. The character was interesting, the wording was nice, ladadee ladeedum. For some reason being called semi-literate really struck me and hurt my sense of pride. Does anybody else have anything to shed on this subject?[/size] |

Illiterate to literate are clearly defined as such in my opinion... Illiterate: Many spelling errors, list intros, constant one liners, poorly worded, etc. Semi-literate: Less spelling errors, better list intros, few one liners, etc. Literate: Few (usually typo) spelling errors, full (non-list) intro, rare one liners, proper punctuation. But everything above those three are constantly discussed, but again in my opinion... Semi-advanced: Near perfect spelling (with only a typo here and there), good wording, at least one paragraph per reply, fairly long and detailed intros, etc. Advanced: Perfect spelling (at worst, extremely rare typos), near perfect punctuation (everyone has different opinions on how they type out a character's thoughts), no one liners, long and detailed post. I consider myself more along the lines of Semi-advanced. But I would consider you as just advanced, no less then at the top of semi-advanced. Better then myself, that's for sure. |

Well I can safely say that person had no idea what s/he was chatting. Just had a quick browse through a few of your posts and intros on the site and well my exact thoughts I cant put down. Seriously, I couldnt even think of a reason why they would say semi lit. Just dont take it to heart if some fool says that. I think you prob got the longest posts Ive seen, other then when someone sets the whole scene along with their own intro I can say I havent seen more then a hand full of posts longer or better done. |

[size=1]Kitsune, I agree with your definitions. That's probably why I was so surprised when I was dubbed semi-literate. Either way, Max is right about not taking it to heart. I'll just accept that she has different views {as crazy as they are :rolleyes: } and get over. Thank you. ^^[/size] |

Speaking of, I haven't even roleplayed on the neopets board in it seems like ages. (where I first started roleplaying) Are they still as annoying as ever? |

[size=1]There's billions of roleplays that seem pretty pointless: 'Trapped in Mall with Killer(s)!!!' '{Gifted Welcome}Gifted Sold to Wealthy{Rich Needed}' '3 vampires kidnap 3 girls' {I pulled those from the boards just now} There's still plenty of wolf roleplays, although Warriors have been really popular. They're feral cats or something, I don't know. And what's really horrid now is these things called chatplays... 'Tonks_changer has logged in. Tonks_changer has joined chat. Tonks_changer: Hi everyone -waves- HPforever has logged in. HPforever has joined chat. HPforever: Hi! PrOngS has logged in. PrOngS has joined chat. PrOngS: Hi.. ' You act as if your characters were logged into an instant messaging thing. Most of them are Harry Potter themed, so I don't really get how they have computers, since computers are a muggle thing... Oh, and the person said that she had made a mistake in rating me. She had meant for the email to say semi-advanced, but whatever. -_- [/size] |

[size=1]Haha, yep. We can strive to be so. I like this though. There's not so many people, even though a few more active roleplayers would be nice...[/size] |

I must admite that yeah it is true we could do with a few more actives but I also gotta say that its nice not having too many people on. Like with on neopets it was awkward trying to learn something about a RP since if it was a popular one then it will be near full by the time I got a question in. |

Hey it aint your fault. You aint the one who made people stop comming, you never forced anyone to stop. Hell if it wasnt for this site and Maenwen I may not even be RPing up to this day. If it wasnt for this site I would be stuck with neopets for RPs and as we have all seen it aint exactly the best is it? |
