At a store I used to work at, we used to joke about a television salesman who'd walk into the manager's office, tell us what a sh*tbird job we were doing, how we suck, the store sucked, and everyone but him sucked. We gave him the floor once to tell us, in our shoes, what he'd do differently and what changes he'd make to improve sales, retain personnel, and boost morale, to which he shriveled up and told us that, well, things were fine, he guessed. I feel like that story is relevant here. Maybe to you...I really didn't want this to 'become a 'thing'. I didn't mean to offend, it's just not for me. Thanks. Perhaps you should have just left it at that, then. Without going in too deep, even as just a silly online hobby, some people have been at this a long time. To make thinly veiled swipes about it being presented as something else and suggesting you've had less than pleasant "dalliances" here without elaborating essentially waltzes into their "office" and takes a giant sh*t on the rug. If you weren't looking to take it any further, you should have said your piece and left it at that. That you keep coming back suggests a desire to see something...well...more. |

On a more positive and unrelated note - I'd just finished up a graphic for the award show, and went to close Photoshop and decided I was bored. Sorry in advance, c-scope:  |

Looks like a scrapped Dragon Ball character.

Could I just draw my pic base instead of using an actual person or is that a no-no?

I come from the school of 'if it's gonna get me a warning bar, I should probably keep it to myself'. That should give you all some idea of my thoughts on this whole thing. |

I deleted what I posted, cause I don't have a dog in this fight and I see no reason to get splattered with piss in the piss throwing match that I am assuming is brewing. I agree with Smash Rodriguez and am a little pissed, because that rug really tied the whole room together

If you were to do that then your character will NEVER appear on a show poster or even get a match banner at a PPV because a drawn character next to a photo just looks terrible. It's bad enough when people choose someone who it's impossible to find high res photos of. |

What you could do is something slappy did and pick a normal picbase then draw their in ring attire, his sort of looked like a horse jockey thing. Something like that would be cool. But flat out drawing a hand/computer draft person as your base, I wouldn't advise it. We don't take a bunch too seriously here for the most part, but we've always taken pride in PPVs and graphics to make this place feel as real as possible so, yeah. |

Ok, kids. Here's an unsolicited writing tip from your old pal SYE, since there seems to be an inordinate amount of people here guilty of this gear grinding faux pas. This is an isle:  This, in the context of how most of us intend to use the word, is an aisle:  |

I've been writing pretty much nonstop as a means of escape/distraction since last night. I'm a man completely out of sync with the system - a few months back I rescheduled my shrink appointments to every two weeks, and ever since then, every major disaster in my life has happened on an off week.
That being said, if all the sudden I go radio silent sometime this week or next, I'm probably being held on assault charges 'cause circumstances might just dictate that I have to kill a man.

How is everyone doing with their RP so far? I like the direction of mine. I need to add some stuff prior to submitting it. I really have no clue as to how you guys will view it, it's different to most of my writing thus far.

I'm tapping out for the night on the award show. I've been putting more attention on it than I should have been for the past day or so, which I tend to do with whatever hobby I'm most actively pursuing in times of strife. If time were any sort of friend to me, maybe I'd have a decent song or two under my belt, but I'm kind of a sh*tty songwriter.
Kids, if there's someone out there in your life who's waiting on better days, go on over and be a friend to 'em. As you get older, you might have a tendency to distance yourself from the drag down sort of sh*t that you figure you don't need in your life, and a lot of times that comes with dumping some of the people who've crossed your path sometime down the road, but no matter what piss poor decisions they may have made in life, the moment they're gone, if not maybe a day or two later, if you've got any sort of good left in your heart, that sh*t's gonna hurt something fierce, man. I've wronged a couple of people in my life, and I felt the burn of that guilt something fierce when I finally pulled my head out of my ass, but man, stupid 18 year old sh*t like parading the whore you're calling a girlfriend at the time in front of the high school flame on her first visit back from college won't ever haunt you like the self doubt of wondering if something as arbitrary and seemingly pointless as a f*ckin' comment on Facebook could have saved a life.
Seriously - we all know someone hurting in one manner of another. Call them up - it can be awkward and uncomfortable as all get out but I'd wager it's a whole lot easier than sitting in your easy chair sucking down coffee brandys wondering if this is somehow all your fault.
