The Tainted Options

[Raijinili]

You have a knack for writing!

The way you write is almost that of an authors. Now you just need to think up your own story.

Also, this alternate ending is pretty good...but Malice should not be like that...

[Raijinili]

CLARIFY RE: MALICE :P

And I won't have to "think up my own story" until I get a job at Square or something, thx. :D

[Raijinili]

Ah, every 'artists's' excuse to not have anything original.

[Raijinili]

Way to start things in other topics, Ash.

[Raijinili]

I start things everywhere. I capitalize on any logic hole I see.

[Raijinili]

I continue to remind you that if you weren't an admin, you would have had your sorry ass so totally and completely banned from every place that you wouldn't even be able to access the Internet anymore.

[Raijinili]

I'm still not banned from GameFAQs. Actually I've never been banned anywhere.

Why? Because people like me. ;)

Besides, me being an admin here has no bearing on my access anywhere else. Go go logic train choo choo!

[Raijinili]

First off, he's not an admin.

Secondly:

Ah, every 'artists's' excuse to not have anything original.

This is an attack, not the exploitation of a logic hole.

[Raijinili]

Actually, it is a logic hole.

It's absurd to say that just because you're not working at a company or writing a book that you shouldn't be developing your own ideas and properties. Without your own original properties, and just writing spin offs or stuff of pre-existing stories makes you a wannabe.

[Raijinili]

I didn't say it wasn't a logic hole, I said your post wasn't the exploitation of a logic hole.

Logic hole that!

[Raijinili]

I say my post is.

[Raijinili]

Except you didn't point out the logic hole in the post. You implied that she wasn't an artist, and called her lazy and/or uncreative. That's a personal attack. Calling her a wannabe isn't the same thing as pointing out the hole in her logic, since she didn't claim to be an artist in that post directly. It's just an insult.

I was saying how nearly every self-proposed 'artist' uses it as a thinly vieled excuse for their lack of innovation. I said nothing of her, not at all.

[Raijinili]

...she likes writing fanfiction, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm sure she's capable of creating her own worlds, she just chooses to focus on what she loves.

I dabble in both because I love original worlds, but it might not be for everyone.

On that note, keep it clean. Don't turn this thread into a petty argument. This is a post to discuss Feral's fanfic.

[Raijinili]

Well, Ash is the kind of moron who likes to troll people and start things.

And I *do* have original stuff--just because you never see any of it doesn't mean I don't have it.
