  • 07.04.2005 7:56 PM PDT

haha, no. i normally try to be somewhat humble, but i'll just throw that out the window for this statement: No friggin way man. always got some ladies around, and i stil have the time to write the story. as for clark, i was only putting out a bet...instigating something out of the quiet folks around here...he leaves for 2 days and the thread dies...wow. cmon.

as for shotgun masta, you never get any ladies. but then again, you never intend to...if you know what i mean.

First of all sir_brilliant, go take some English grammar lessons, because you stink at it. Second of all, the only reason why you make such a loser-ass statement such as, "he leaves for 2 days and the thread dies,come on," is because you're an attention seeking punk that thinks the number of replies you recieve makes your crummy story better. Mr_Clark is a professional level author, unlike you, and he has stated many times that he'd rather have this thread die inbetween chapters, as senseless talking is a waste of kilobytes on the server.

Oh and another thing, learn to use paragraphs in your fanfic sir_brilliant. They really help the eyes.

wow, big man on the thread...ooo, got me bad. i'm so upset...yeah right.

if you don't like my story, that's your problem. i don't really care. i'm not here to tell clark that his story sucks...i like it myself. but if his fans are gonna be biatches like you, then i don't really want to be a part of it. Saying crap like that is what turned so many people off from any of the fanfic here on bungie.net. give that a second to sink in, then read on.

what i was saying, since i had no problems with grammar, but rather it was your eyes that decieved the less than intelligent brain connected to them, was that the thread shouldn't die because of a minor problem like clark not being around. don't you guys have anything to talk about...questions on the story, info on future chapters, ideas you have?? try to remember it is a free country, and you can say what you like here...to some extent. if anything, i was baggin on the fans who participate regularly in the thread who are letting it die for no reason other than 'clark said so'. And normally, this wouldn't be a bad thing, but i happen to disagree with his idea about it. the website isn't close to running out of space, and it runs slow enough as it is. adding a few lines while he's away won't make bungie.net crash.

and how exactly are more people going to be able to appreciate the story if its back on page 8? nobody really goes that far to look for things. Except for me, apparently, the one fan here who gives a -blam!-. maybe that doesn't mean anything to some people, like mr. happy pants that i quoted here, but it should to everyone else.

and if don't like the way my paragraph's are stuctured, its because i don't type the story on bungie.net like clark most-likely does. it would take too long to restructure it, and as my entire story is downloadable, it would be a huge waste of space and time. wasted kilobytes on the site, as clark put so well.

  • 07.05.2005 2:25 PM PDT

He watches every Hodgetwin video they put up...on ALL their channels. He calls them the Hodge Triplets, and considers himself the 3rd triplet. He's started talking and acting like them now. Every other line out of his mouth "Thaaas some BULLLLLL**** maaayne" or "Gotta make dem gainzzzz". He calls his biceps "gains". When he eats post-workout, he talks to his biceps, "Don't worry gains, I'm feeding you. Daddys gonna feed you, gainz *kisses biceps*".

I've been doing my best to keep the thread alive. I've rescued it from the 2nd or 3rd pages quite a bit.

Ok, for a new topic involving fanfic (everyone feel free to answer):

Alright guys, I have this problem when I try to write stories. I get bored of writing them real quick. I don't have a short attention span at all, but I just get bored with writing too easily. I do NOT get bored of reading at all, I absolutely love doing that. Heck, writing is about the only thing I get bored of quickly (other than perhaps a bad speech). See, I think the root of the problem is I am an IMMENSELY detailed writer. I think that I am so detailed I tend to lose sight of the big picture and focus on individual sentances far too much.

I would like to start a fanfiction deal some time soon and any tips at all to help overcome the problem would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks.

Look who started using paragraphs.

Oh and another thing, Mr_Clark never said anything about kilobytes, he just said useless posts would clutter the thread up, I'm the one who brought up kilobytes. Thanks for the compliment.

wow, down to page 8. that's far back...cmon guys, he's only gonna be gone another couple of days...someone spark some conversation...i'll start off by bringing this loose thread back to the front page...lets have a bet:

clark doesn't get any girls, at all. what i think. anyone else?


you got a lot of nerve showing up here just to insult Mr._Clark

  • 07.05.2005 10:16 PM PDT

"It's like a cake filled with pies." -Pete "Mango" Parsons

Seventh Column Contests

The reason Mr_Clark is always saying let this thread die is because he doesnt want people to start spaming about stupid stuff. They always start off by saying "I resurected this thread from page 8" some stupid stuff like that. No 1 gives a damn because the thread will most likely come to page 1 anyways after a while when the next chapter comes along. He doesnt like spaming and other stupid stuff that fill up the damn thread with useless nonsense. Thats why he is always saying let the thread die until next chapter comes because he knows people will always start saying random stuff and offtopic -blam!- when they are bored or when they dont have anything better to do. So why dont we just let the thread die OR start talking about the story. This whole page is filled with spam and other useless -blam!-.

  • 07.05.2005 10:22 PM PDT

let me ask you a question: does a tree make a sound in a forest while it falls if nobody is there to hear it? whats the point of having anything written if nobody can read it? its pointless, to tell the truth. thats why so many people are turned off from writing, because nobody gets to see their stuff, and they are never seen.

of course, i'm not here trying to start a problem. i started because i wanted to help, without breaking the rules, but letting you all know how far the thread had fallen back. as for anyone who has a problem with how my story is structured, -blam!- you. if the site doesn't follow the paragraphs as i copy and paste them, so be it.

moving on, i'm sorry for saying clark said 'kilobytes'. my bad, you have full credit for it.

i never made fun of clark once, merely gave a friendly competetive gesture. if you think its an insult, then i fear you've misunderstood what i meant. i merely put out a friendly wager, to keep some conversation going.

and as for Uberdawg, writing is a difficult thing to do. dealing with sentence structure, grammar, and a long list of other things isn't easy to do, especially when you have to keep the attention of any and all readers. the problem is that there isn't much advice i could give you, except to read more books, and look at how those authors wrote their books. There are several core authors i try to imitate, because they're writing is just so damn good its scary.

Michael stackpole, who used to write the main set of books for the battletech series, does a great job of using details to promote imagery, although i believe he uses it a bit too much. but rarely did i get tired of reading through the details, because they gave me a world to imagine as i read.

Mario Puzo is another, and he wrote, as you all should know, the Godfather. if you thought the movie was incredible, then you'll be shocked by how good the book was. it was probably the most well written book i've ever read, of modern literature. my life would not be complete without reading that book. His other works are also great.

so, in essence, you want to try to find the style you like writing in. I myself use different styles for different characters; more realistic and sarcastic for humans, excessively determined and intelligent for spartans, and well versed and scryptive for covenant. each one has its own unique characteristics, and leads the reader to a different perspective on the story.

lastly, i can only say that the way you write will also be determined on you. If you are a generally sarcastic person, it will be easy for you to write stuff with alot of sarcasm, insult, and irony. If you're serious, then detail-oriented material will suit you better. etc...if you find you write too many details, try to think about how to limit the amount you put in and how a reader might imagine the situation based on only the few you put in. if it works, then you've succeded. if not, go back and try again. eventually you'll find your style.

do michael stackpole and mario puzo write their books like this peying absolootly no atension to capytalyzation and speling? if so den datz just sad.

Now, on a serious note. WHO CARES if the thread falls back 8 pages. Mr_Clark already has as many fans as he needs. You yourself stated that people are discouraged because no one reads their writing. Well NEWSFLASH, there are plenty of people reading Mr_Clark's fanfic and just because we don't post doesn't mean we don't have this thread bookmarked and check it on a daily basis. Leave it alone and let it die for god's sake.

For Sir_Brilliant.

I've read your story, that is quite good. However I didn't like your statement about Mr_C's fans been such biatches.

I've countered over hundred times your own fans that comes to shouting in other threats how they copy you and are piece of Cr4p. I think thats little immature, you continue this thing also. I just wonder where did they get Idea to do things like that. Hmm.. Following your footsteps?

At least we stay on our own threat and not spam others threats. I really hope that you grow, so you would have better future.

What if we dont speak about story as much as your fans do? We have lots of questions and so on, but we solve many of them in few posts unlike yours that wastes days after days ponder options like "Did that brute shoot first or was it that other guy who shot first? Hmm thats the question of my life." We dont waste space for that kinda things, it more interresting to wait and see what Mr_C's has to give us then.

That's it and good day.

It just means the thread isnt constantly spammed.
Unlike other threads...
And does it honestly matter whether Clarke gets chicks or not. He is here to write fanfics and hes the best author on bungie.net.
Im sure Tom Clancy isnt a stud either...

Wow... sir_brilliant, I've never seen such immature statements made by fanfic writers here on b.net... really, what's the reason?

Maybe you should take a look at the fans in your own thread, before making baseless statements here. At least we don't spam other threads... except Prowlaz of course.

Wow, everyone is arguing over stupid -blam!- like brilliants statements about mr.clarks love life? How about the arguement over brilliants statement about this thread being on page eight? I love Mr.Clarks story and i also loved Brilliants, but i agree with Brilliant. I think, if we truely want to further Mr.Clarks fame or Fan count, we should try to keep the thread on top of the forums. And as for the discussion about who gets more ladies, as far as i can tell it was innocent competition between two great writers who share a common goal. Sir Brilliant, keep on posting.
