Is it too much to ask:

dclary · Dec 5, 2006

I check the forums I'm active in at least every 5 minutes. Is it honestly too hard to have someone reply to me in those threads (and toss some rps while they're at it) on a similar time table? Sometimes I have to wait upwards of 15-20 minutes for a reply, and I feel like I've either missed the mark with the post, or there's been some technical glitch, or all of my friends up and died at once.

Also, I guess this should go in the "obsessive rp" thread, but if I don't get an RP on a post within said 5 minutes, I wonder what I did wrong to piss everyone off again.

You don't need a rep point . . . you need a hug!

;-)

Goodness. Would it make you feel better if I told you I've named a character after you in my NaNo novel? Do you feel loved now?

Is this where the addicts meet, every 10 minutes?

Welcome back Ray. When?

Maybe Writerterri can start a new thread: It's Tuesday, Who Needs Physchoanalysis?

Hmm, maybe I should have started a "I'm back" thread.

Soccer Mom · Dec 5, 2006

Yes! You should have. But it was fun to just stumble across you here.

Howdy!

I think we're both wired the same way. I always want forum replies to come sooner. If you think of it as email instead of chat, it helps.

*Pat pat*

All I have to say is, I missed my rep points!

Oh, missed you, too.

Yeah, but over in the "Theme #5 game" in poetry, I wrote a freakin poem IN RHYMED IAMBIC PENTAMETER!!!

Goll-durned-it, I want recognition!

They turned off post counts for this and TIO (and broke TIO into rabid/not rabid sections) Ray. So you should probably spend some time in other forums too if you want to keep your post count up.

Stew21 · Dec 5, 2006

I'll go look at your poem right now, Dave! I promise!

With almost 18,000 posts, I think that's the least of my concern. I do have a lot of posts in other forums, but you may not have noticed.

Thanks, stew. And I desperately want you to take a look at my christmas contest entry, but I guess that has to wait until voting's over so I don't give away which one is mine.

Really? I'll have to look.

Can't wait to read it.

I have to write one too, but haven't managed to do it yet. I keep thinking about it, but guess the only way it's going to happen is if I just write the thing, eh?
(and I have so many AW people poems to do still.)

I read your Theme Me #5 - excellent work!

Shadow_Ferret · Dec 5, 2006

Sorry, dclary, I had you on ignore.

dclary · Dec 5, 2006

Who said that?!

(very nice avatar!)

dclary · Dec 5, 2006

Thanks, Stew. I'm no big fan of structured poetry, but I like to get my hands dirty every now and then. Makes you stay honest.

5- and 6-syllable words in iambic, that was awesome. And the ABAB CDCD rhyme scheme... I toyed very briefly with making it an actual Shakespearian sonnet, but then decided against it.

Stew21 · Dec 5, 2006

I don't have the patience for writing that kind of work but enjoy reading it very much. (yes. because I'm a hack!)

dclary · Dec 5, 2006

I love your RP comments, Gclare.

We must be distant relatives... you're probably really gclary, but were afraid to use the Y on the end.
