Well, as the topic says... Wow... I look back on the early DAL posts and... Well, we've improved a lot, don't you think?
-
I think we all have. I find embarrassment in my old posts. Just look how shitty they were...
Duilin battles along with the other Dark Warriors. Smashing the Romme soilders with his mace. He trips and falls on the ground and cuts himself on the leg on a droped sword. He limps over and goes and sits on a rock...
"What am I doing?" He says to himself. He looks at the cut on his leg. "Ow...."
He looks at the fighting going on. "Why is it that I feal that what is happening is wrong if I'm with the DARK Empire. I'm evil...Or am I....."
He countinues to sit on the rock hopeing that none of the Commanders Of The Dark Empire will notice him and start yelling at him for not fighting.
Horrible spelling and terrible writing style. He trips and falls. He limps over to a rock. "I'm evil...Or am I....."
Think that's bad, look at my second post...
Duilin sit on the rock but then a soilder say he better start fighting before he gets in trouble.
"Yeah your right" He get's up and takes out his mace. "I better go start fighting"
He runs of smashing away a few Romme Soilders with his Mace.
His right?
I'd seriously consider re-writing most of the first chapter if we where to publish this in any way.
-
If we WHERE, DM? If we where what? Where? Huh?
Looks like I'm not the only one who needs to go to an ESL school.
And yes, I agree... A lot of things have improved. Looking back at the Iron Wing... I felt like editing the posts so that all it says is "[edited by user]". In fact, sometimes, I write up a post, then look at it the next day, and go like, wow, what was I smoking?
-
Geez, my first post is mangled with run-ons. I have like five commas in one sentence. (Heh...)
-
If we WHERE, DM? If we where what? Where? Huh?
Well, that was a typo, it's completely different than the you're/your thing! And you don't have to be such a jerk about it. Capitalizing letters, barbaric I say!
-
I don't want to look at my posts :/ Shivers*
-
Hmm... Looking over all of the chapters, you do see a LOT of improvements. I guess you guys 'have' come a long way. I'm still just a noob, though... I hope my posts are okay, man. That would suck if someone I don't even know sends me a private message saying 'your spelling blows' or something like that...... ugh...
Anyways, it looks really fantastic from where I started. I think that's what probably motivated me to join. Well, I hope I dont stay a noob for much longer anyhow...

Meh, a noob is a new person who doesn't know anything about anything and does everything wrong because he doesn't even bother to learn and they usually talk "liek thay r on teh chat line". D. Ein is a good example of a noob. Razz
You'd be more of a newb(ie). Since a newb is just somebody who is new.
-
Hey! I am so not a noob!!
But it would help if I could have some free st00fs plx.
Also, to keep with the thread's topic: I actually think my very first post is the best one I've ever made. The rest are just not interesting...
EDIT: Oh my. I just noticed I bumped a 2-day topic. Better hide, before Tosoto, the Slayer of the Ancient Post Bumpers finds me and, er... slays me. Yeah.
-
Thanks, Dude man. That's a real compliment comming from a moderator.
So how does everybody like Dark Age Legends so far? It's going good for most of us, which I think is exactly how everything should be and more...
(Don't ask me why I put the '...' every other post. I have to! It freshens the savory goodness of all posts!)
'Til next time on Dark Age Forums!
Ugh... I just ruined the moment, didn't I? Ah well. See you guys when DAL sign-ups for thirteen begin!
-
Meh, I'm only a moderator for DAL. I don't need to do much moderation work, just give the "thumbs up" to new characters, and I've only spotted a couple problems in a few characters so far.
-
Sweet! We have a new guy joining the ever-lasting, ever-enjoyable ever... pretty much everything RP! It's going to be great this time around, guys, I can just feel it! I'm ready to RP!
Also, who here likes to write as a hobby?
-
That would definetly be me. I have a pwetty book in the works, as well as several written plans for worlds and...ugh...just several written plans ^_^
-
I'm bored... Why can't DAL just start! Ugh!
I don't mean to complain, but I guess it's just because of the fact that I started a little late in the story. I'm just so friggen bored! OMG!
-
No offence Drannic, but you kinda need to chill out a bit. Razz
Well, I find DAL and posting here to be a hobby so I guess 'typing' would be more of a hobby for me.
-
No offense, DM, but I think YOU need to stop telling us what to do Razz I think that your "Moderator" tag is giving you a bit of a star sickness (for those who don't know what that is, it's when people act way too high and mighty).
Drannic: This is an incredibly short break for a DAL chapter, so I say praise Xorlak for giving in to your pleas to end the break sooner. Oh, and a small remark: you seem to be a very active poster, so please keep in mind the rule about 2 posts a day (actually, I think, the "unwritten" limit is about 3... I remember back when I joined I made like 5 posts in one day. Hey, you can't blame me - it was my very first battle with another character ^_^ Now, I'd say 3 is the limit).
-
Which is why I'd like to thank him now. I'm just getting really anxious. I have too many great ideas for the next chapter, and it's also because I started really late in the chapter. Ehh, I guess I can wait for two more days. Anyways, Thanks, Xorlak.
Also, Duke Ein, don't anger DM. He's a moderator, and you could get banned for insulting his higher power. Although I do admit he kind of lords it over us... I bet any of us would. I love power. That's what I use to destroy pittiful heros. MEH!
-
Drannic. DM can't ban Ein. That is because Ein would chew DM out in real life.
For Ein, DM is not a higher power... He is a friend to whom he can speak face-to-face...
Oh, by the way, Ein, I don't see what you mean by DM getting a "star sickness"... I mean, the comment made by him seems reasonable enough to put up as a plain DAL veteran.
DM, if your hobby is typing, why don't I see you on MSN everyday? Hmm? :p
-
Drannic: Ein's a good friend of mine, we have teasing banter all the time. He doesn't need to fear my powers. In fact nobody does, since I don't really have the power to ban anyone or even give them warning, Xorlak just wants me to give the 'thumbs up' to new characters and make sure everyone is following the rules when he can't.
Ein: I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm just saying he needs to be a bit more patient for DAL to return. You, Jenai or Burton could have said that and it still would have been appropriate. I just think you're jealous =P.
Jenia: Sometimes just don't like signing on MSN. But I guess mostly it's the fact we have different time zones.
-
Yeah... Those time zones can really get to you. I had a major friggen problem with them in a friggen fictional world; you can just imagine the troubles I would have with them in the real world. Now THAT's pretty messed up. BTW, DM, make sure you e-mail me those sprites for the game. Otherwise, I'm just stuck using sprites from Dark age I and II. This is just temporary, though... so you don't have to worry about copyright or anything like that, Xorlak.
-
Actually I don't have a lot of space left on my computer to download DAX (I only have a 30GB hard drive with about 4GB left of free space, and I kind of want to keep it around that). So could you send me the DAX sprites so I can edit them?
-
Sure. I'll send over everything from DAX - DA II. Please e-mail the edited sprites back to me as well, because I'm going to need those sprites. Also, I'm going to need your e-mail adress.
-
Feh. You can understand my situation, I'm sure. I stayed up till 1 doing a project, and since I didn't finish it, I woke up at 4 to continue making it. I hadn't finished it then, so I go to school, and for the entire programming class I continued to do my damned math project. Finally, just when the bell rings, I put the last period after the last sentence. So, I bring the project to class. She takes it. Then she hands out a hard-ass test which took me one and a half hour (usually periods are 1 hour and 15 minutes, so it bit 15 minutes out of my Latin class, which is really the only thing I enjoy in school.... that, and programming). It's quite clear to say, then, that I wasn't entirely thinking straight when I wrote that.... and yes, I do know DM in real life. In fact, if you look at the DAL game page, you'll see that he posted on my account - because he came over to my house, and I have the auto login option set to "on".
-
Notice how I said I'm gonna need your e-mail adress. I can't just send it to nowhere and it'll just suddenly pop up in your computer. Any day now would be nice, if you don't mind...
-
Well at least let me reply before you yell at me! Razz
icewarrior68@hotmail.com
You could have also got my e-mail of my member page or my DALPedia page. But I guess you didn't know that, which is fine.
-
Well, now I have it. Sorry about that, I'm just getting bored... again...
