Wat, where did my post go?
Anyway, Chaos, the point is that this is written prose, not verbal storytelling. Written prose should contain paragraphs, punctuation, no elipses (except for dialogue), and full, non-runon sentences. Yeah. Even though the bolding does help to differentiate narration from dialogue, it still makes it confusing. I'd suggest starting each new line after a dialogue on a separate paragraph.

i'd like to know ._."
huh..? is that so..? o-o" well.. then these authors of these books i read f***ed up big time, especially when the story was told in first person ._." buuuut yeah.. my actual point was, that you still get what ima trying ta tell ye.. aye..? while the tense, that witcher's using, leaves room for others to think that he's godmodding.. and.. srsly.. i like writing like i would narrate this.. that's just my style of RP'ing.. just like now, i'm writing.. but it still kinda is like i'm telling you this face to face.. aye..? and that's how i do it IC ^^" with less intentional grammar mistakes :3

I know, but first-person narratives tend to dip into stream of consciousness moments, which is where those elipses come from, because what is written is a direct reflection of the character's thoughts. In third-person however, narration is more straightforward and direct. Yeah. And yes, about witcher's stuff, it was written in a way which could have been easily misinterpreted, but that doesn't make him a bad/new RPer. It's just his style of RP, just as you have yours.
iiii see..? i never intended to be a writer or anything and doing this as a hobby, thus making my grammar 'so bad' ._." so you're telling me that the narrator can't take a small break at all and has to say everything like a machine..? and about that new thing.. well.. it says that he joined on sept 2011, which made me assume that he's really new .____." and is changing the tense really an own style..? o-o" wow.. then i'ma gonna write everything in present tense now! =D (obviously.. just kidding.. wanted to be stupid for a second XD)
justin bieber isn't a book though ._." you get his songs forced into your brain all over the globe.. in order to find out what the book's like tho, you actually gotta read it ._." XDD and reading is obviously harder than hearing, which is why most idiots prefer to hear, rather than read, which is why he attracts all the idiots, while the book attracts less stupid people, thus making it more famous than some teen popstar.. i mean.. i haven't heard anything bout him over here for ages.. is he even alive..? o-o"
Well yes, I do wholeheartedly agree that The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a literary masterpiece, but most literary masterpieces are written in normal prose .____.
Oh well, we're getting a bit off-topic here. I do respect your style of RPing, but I'm just requesting that you make it a bit clearer and precise, that's all
Hmm, I think I'll join. I'll come up with a character sheet either tomorrow or Friday.
