#TBT to that time I tried initiating a recruitment drive and alls it got me was some salty criticism from "Bulletproof" Bobby Hall. You all remember "Bulletproof" Bobby Hall, right?

Fun fact: I just spent the last hour cleaning up my DMs. Five pages of threads, almost all of them related to the WFWF! I deleted half and archived half. Now I'm afraid to open my archive folder.

My active inbox is ten pages, dating back to around 2012, almost exclusively WFWF related. My favorite threads, looking back, are at least two individuals basically asking me to lay the groundwork for their characters going forward as their respective wells had run dry. Complete opposite ends of the writer's hierarchy. One of 'em I've exposed for having done so on a couple of occasions. The other often finds themselves listed amongst the best in the "biz" (though there's probably a frequency study to be had regarding exactly by whom). Also like a thousand fights with Dex. Those might be worth a self-published e-book.

I can't believe how many times I fat fingered typos just trying to get out three short sentences. If I had to write an RP on a smartphone it would be shorter than Drakz infamous "white room" RP.

Not to blow my own horn of Gondor....but I'm guessing whatever model you're currently on is slightly larger than the 4S/5C/5S models I've written on here. Still on my 5S.

They tried to sell me one that was 3"x5" using the "it's only $25 more" argument but I said "No thanks, it's too big". The one I got fits comfortably in my hand and/or my pocket, which is all I ask of a phone. For me, it's bad enough that I can't "close it" to protect the screen from scratches or cracks when I'm not using it like I could with my flip phone.

Please tell me you at least bought a screen protector and a somewhat sturdy case.

Either they really wanted to sell the older model, really liked me, or really jacked the price up on the phone so it was no loss in profits.

I haven't used a screen protector since I got my first smartphone back around 2012. I also go for the cheapest cases available, and never used one on my 5C. Right now, my case is a hand-me-down from my wife's old launch 5S.
