Sam's Venting Thread

Aaah, that explains alot.~

Don't worry, its a stressful time fir a good handful of us, your not alone. And if it seems like I'm nit replying, its because of my lack of muse as well. But I think your an amazing writer and I love the amazing ideas we come up with.xD

Buut, whether you stay or not is up to you.

I think I'll stick around after all. Muse is slowly coming back to me, so that's a good sign.

[Rita Repulsa]

glad to hear you're sticking around steve. i know how lack of muse makes it hard to post sometimes.

Its the first day of the month and I'm already posting in here again. This is not a good sign.

So this will pretty much be just Steve complaining about school today, like the majority of stuff in here I'm sure.

In my opinion, art should be something you love to do. Drawing, painting, sculpting, the art of speech, writing, film, music, whatever floats your boat. For me, art is a way to express myself. So why is it that when I walk into art class, I feel as if I'm going to get harassed, blow up at someone, and/or not have any muse to actually do art? It's because my friends are my inspiration to do really anything at school. Art class used to be a fun time where my friends and I would sit around the table, BS a bit, and just do whatever art we felt like doing.

So my teacher thinks this: put Steve in a table with just one of her friends, forbid her from moving, and put people she strongly, strongly, strongly dislikes next to her because she's a good kid and won't mind.

Excuse me. I can't even have a conversation with that one friend anymore because the new jackwagons next to me are loud and obnoxious to the point I can't hear myself think. Then you know what else happens? We cant talk about our artistic ideas, I'm just about ready to punch someone in the face, and now I won't get anything done because I have no ideas on what i should do.

And to top it all off, I now have a C in math because everyone in my group is as dumb as a rock and so when I don't understand what's going on, nobody will help me. So I just end up guessing what I'm supposed to be doing.

TL;DR: Steve hates school with a burning passion now.

[Loki]

Sorry school sucks. That really is bad. Maybe you should talk to a teacher you do like or something to get these annoying kids away from you or help you in math?

[Deleted]

Am I just... Totally, utterly, completely obnoxious when it comes to rping? I feel like that's what people think outside of this site.

So I took a character from a franchise on another site, and the staff said I was fine to do so as long as I'm not dropping the f-bomb every five seconds. I go along with it, and a new site pops up recently. They share the same admin. The franchise I took the character from is banned.

I can't help but feel as though that admin is just sick of me and wants to discourage me from joining certain places as much as possible. Like, I feel like this franchise is going to be banned from every single site this admin is in charge of and it's all my fault. I feel like I screwed over everyone else who might want to play a character from this franchise, and it makes me feel like people hate my character choices and want nothing to do with me. It's like I have to appeal to the staff's favorite media if I want to get noticed.

I mean, I didn't do anything wrong with the character I took. I didn't cause drama, didn't swear constantly and just followed the rules. Maybe I'm just being paranoid and that franchise just couldn't fit (although that's unlikely since the site allowed AUs), but there have been cases before where it felt like this admin just approved characters from media she likes. I don't know if I want to join any sites with this admin anymore because I feel like she's constantly judging me for my character choice and gets really irritated when I show up and take a character from something she's not familiar with/doesn't like.

[Brock Harrison & Pokemon]

Aww. That sucks.

Maybe they just decided not to use that franchise at that site. I don't think you're obnoxious at all. I always enjoy rping with you here and look forward to it. Don't know if we've rped together at DWOW or not. But don't put yourself down.

And if you don't want to join any more sites they make then don't join it. No point rping at at place you feel uncomfortable at.

[Deleted]

I hope that's what happened. I really hope that I'm just overlooking things and freaking out over nothing, y'know? I'm glad to hear that I'm not just totally irritating. I don't think we ever rped together back on DWOW, actually. The last time I went back, I didn't get too far and abandoned ship when I felt like people disliked me for picking a lion.

...I think my main problem is that I feel like someone is going to get irritated at me for what character I pick so they have an excuse to throw me out or something, and I just need to relax.

You have a point with joining a place where I feel uncomfortable. Even if the plot's amazing, it's not so fun when it feels like the staff doesn't even want to bother with you. I doubt I'll be joining too many places anyway, since I have so many advanced classes that are likely to eat up my time when school comes back around, so I might as well pick places that I feel comfortable with.

[Henry V/Hal]

Stevie! *hugs* You are far from obnoxious. You are practically the reason I picked Loki to fool around with you. If you're not comfortable with a RP don't go to it. It's not as bad as it sounds. We're here for ya, because we can be. <3

[Deleted]

lol. I get that feel every time I ask to pick up a giant robot or dinosaur.

[Deleted]

... Huh. So the aforementioned admin has banned the aforementioned media on another site that I was looking at, since I figured I'd try to interact with them again, except this time they banned it the moment a different member asked about taking a character from there. And they then proceeded to ban most of the media that this specific member wanted to take characters from. Like, there was one exception, and thats because someone else already took characters from there.

I dunno, that just really irked me. I think that this member was strongly disliked, and I feel kinda bad for them. It's like the staff is trying to make the member go away, and this member hasn't really done anything wrong. Maybe I'm overreacting and overthinking, but that just seemed kinda messed up to "coincidentally" ban all this media when someone wanted to play as certain characters. Granted, some of this person's character choices wouldn't be very fitting in the atmosphere, but some of them could have worked out just fine.

Also, I'm sorry for not actually getting to any replies. I've been exercising a lot lately because my parents want me to be healthier, so now I've got a lot less energy by the end of the day and I feel really sore nowadays. XP I'm hoping I'll get back into the game soon.

[Deleted]

Hey, sorry I haven't been on much lately. My muse has been really strained and it's not fun whatsoever. XC

I think my muse is falling apart mainly because someone I knew but wasn't really fond of died recently, and I feel awful about it. I haven't been eating much, I barely get out of bed, I hardly socialize with my family, and I just haven't been doing well in general. I don't really have anyone to talk about with this situation, so I've just blocked out everyone in my family and tried to find ways to entertain myself.

Now I'm trying to get back into rping so that I'm actually doing something, so I should gradually be getting back into the hang of things.

[Nostalgia Chick]

Take all the time you need. No rush here. Just glad you're sticking around. Looking forward to rp with Steve, Tara, and the rest of your characters when you come back.
