Your greatness is measured by your kindness; your education and intellect by your modesty; your ignorance is betrayed by your suspicions and prejudices, and your real caliber is measured by the consideration and tolerance you have for others.
Please comment under here~! I'd like to keep my page somewhat clean~!

I did, but it's not that type of formatting you need. It's simple grammar. Punctuation. Things like that. And did you intentionally ignore the request for people to comment under the comment that I had featured in an attempt to keep my page clean?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
what kind are you talking about than if you give me a small written example I think I'd get it I'll try but no promises (considering people read stories FOR the story not just to judge the persons writing skill)
oops sorry didn't see that sorry
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I understand that. It just makes it easier on the reader if the piece they are reading is grammatically correct. For example you could look at the request that I did in my gallery. It's the only piece of writing I have posted thus far, but that is how proper grammar looks.
How could you not? It's featured for one, so it's brighter than the other comments, and it's literally the first comment you see when you get down to that section. I had it set up specifically so people would see that and comment under it. But don't worry. I set it up again.

GRAMMAR thats what formatting is?
I don't have good eyes yet I have the best eyes in my family I'm sorry for my eyes failing me once again
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes! That's what makes it the easiest to read. I could correct the sentence below to show you what it is supposed to look like.
I don't have good eyes, yet I have the best eyes in my family. I'm sorry for my eyes failing me once again.
Notice the commas and periods. That's just the simple stuff!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
so formatting is just grammar?
I thought it was just grammar? all those commas and periods are the stuff that drive me nuts doing because 1 they take FOREVER 2 I don't know how to do it correctly and 3 once again its about the STORY not the small stuff like that people didn't judge Sylvester Stallone for his lack of that stuff when he was homeless and wrote Rocky by HAND
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It takes me longer to do a flip turn during a race than it takes me to press a key on the keyboard that is already there. A flip turn, on average, takes about a second and pressing a key on the keyboard takes what? Not even a second. You must be joking. You have to be! And Stallone was homeless, yes, but his skills in writing are what got him off the streets. Just because it was written by hand does not mean it was bad writing. I have tried to read your stories. I really have. I just can't finish any of them because I get confused. All of your stories are basically one giant run-on sentence and that causes all of the details that happen to blur together.
I do have a question though. Rose has told me that you have graduated from high school, yes? As a current senior in high school I beseech you to answer this. How did you pass English class? I may seem like I am being rude, which may be true, but I'm sorry. If you want to take your writing to the next level you must practice proper grammer, add a space in between your paragraphs, stop using caps lock so damn often, and for the love of god spend time on the things you find hard. You may find the results you want in the time you spend.

its nothing but a pain and as I said I have no idea how to use those correctly the last thing I need is people saying that comma does here not there and what stories of have you been reading my old ones when I was still getting writing tips? read my SAW one that one is VERY well spaced my old DC ones I'll fix when I redesign my character
as I said my last year was an absolute JOKE they had us do some stupid program for CHILDREN I learned NOTHING my last year and its not my fault the only learning I did was reading my own books I'm DEAD serious when I say this no one EVER even tried to teach me that stuff
if thats the reason why people don't like me or my work than thats unfair and stupid I TRY hard I REALLY do but thats just stupid I quit my drawing career because of a tragedy even at my best I was not as good as most on DA so I took up writing I had problems but I fixed them but apparently people will have problems no matter what I do unless I bend to their will and do as they say how is that fair?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nothing but a pain? How your language works is nothing but a pain to you? I am sorry, but that is one of the absolute densest thing I have ever heard and I have heard many incredibly moronic things. As much as I would love to read your works, I most likely will not be. Just being honest. I have things to do and a life to live and tormenting myself reading a run on sentence is not high on my to-do list.
I feel sorry for you then. I truly do. High school is what you make it and it seems you had a less than fortunate experience. Before you say I was one of the lucky ones, I wasn't. I was treated horribly. It got so bad that I chose homeschooling rather than going to school and dealing with the abuse. I am lucky in that I moved to a new state and got lucky in that people were kinder and that kindness is what caused me tow ant to help people.
And life is unfair? Life was never fair, sweetie! Life has done nothing but screw me from the start. Bilateral clubfeet from birth, people treating me like shit because I wasn't part of their religion, being the target of racism and/or sexism, and a recent surgery to try and cause me to be in less pain. So yeah, life isn't fair. If you want to be 'big' you do have to bend to the will of the viewers. That's just how the entertainment industry works.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
as I asked have you been reading my old ones? but sorry I failed to entertain
I wish I could have got home schooled but I has to soldier on and deal with it like I always do
jeez me and you are almost the same except I'm more brawn and your more brains I'm just saying you don't read a story to judge people's works you read them for the story
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, I have been reading your newer ones. I have attempted to read the featured works on your page. I feel it would be interesting if you punctuated. Punctuation is how the readers read the story. You can even compare our whole conversation here! Notice the differences between the ways we type! I punctuate, I proofread my comments (and writings), and I make sure my comments are legible.
It was nice in that I was able to escape the abuse, but I did eventually go back to high school my junior year. I had fun. I joined clubs, got into interscholastic sports, socialized, made a name for myself. The boys who I thought I would have to be afraid of I eventually became best friends with. I made friends with the entire football team, as well as the coaches, and it made my experience better. In fact, the boys would protect me if anyone started giving me shit. Of course I can obviously handle myself as you have seen throughout our ever-so-lovely exchange.
The problem with your mindset is that you seem to think that the people consuming your work, your viewers and readers, don't care about grammar. They do. I'm sorry to break it to you, sweetheart, but that's how it works. My writing was pitiful a few years ago, but with the help of constructive criticism that I have received helped me improve my writing. The difference between you and me is that I take criticism in stride and you hide under a shield of your own ignorance and completely and utterly ignore people who are giving you ways to improve.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that one was literally the first thing I posted on this site
ok
thats not true I haven't had any complaints about my writing since I began you and Rose and the first ones in forever so chill because someone might help me with that and if they do than you and Rose can't judge me anymore when honestly you two should just be more accepting and deal with it
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
we're tying to help you! no one is just going to be your editor. there are some things you are just going to have to learn and apply to your writing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I was never taught this stuff asking that from me is like taming a rabid animal and it hurts me that thats the reason you won't read my stuff that REALLY hurt me
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
then research it, bro. you have internet, which means you have google and the whole world in your hands! i don't read your stuff because without proper grammar and punctuation it looks sloppy, and like you didn't take the time to make it presentable.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I try my best but apparently thats not good enough for you thanks
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i know you said that nobody taught you this stuff, i get that. but i'm trying to give you constructive criticism on your writing and your backlash is what gets you no where. i will give you tips and tricks on how to do this but i need to see you apply them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

I know but its so frustrating to a guy like me and I was bullied for this stuff and I'm a perfectionist so if I missed something (I ALWAYS do) I would pull my hair out that why I was not every good at drawing I would erase until I got it right

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
maybe

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you're about to get roasted, get ready
don't do anything drastic....in fact it would be better to not respond at all.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
there are certain people you don't annoy/piss off.
because I don't want you doing something stupid because of something someone said
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
how is that going to help my self esteem? calling me names and making fun of me
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
look, bro, please just don't do something drastic...okay? promise me that much?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
why would you ever want to say things hurtful to someone else? am I really that bad? that you would say hurtful things to someone who loves you and looks to you for support?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it's not my words, it's my friends. just don't do anything stupid as a reaction.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
like stop trying.
never give up, tyler. don't let people on the internet tell you that you can't do something. drop what they said and move on from it. learn from it. and most of all, don't let them get you down so low as to stop trying.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you talking about her brother? if so I'm good I read the first few lines than pressed X and thats it
I NEVER want to give up but theres ALWAYS the looming knowledge BURNED into my head that I'm not a good artist like you or Trez I'm not as loved as Mark funny as Jack or as popular as Pewdy and I'm not as smart as some other people my only goal in life besides finding love and being happy again is for Jester to become my legacy to live on after I'm dead but I need help
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
practice makes perfect. also, it takes time. and a lot of it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
time that I can't really use I can't just take two more years just to practice that stuff it would drive me crazy
can you please just read my journal about me being sad I'm surprised you didn't at least read that one
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i'm busy working on something currently.. maybe later i'm exhausted right now and i need to get this done..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ok I understand but all this talk of formatting has made me not want to work on stuff for awhile
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
point still stands that you need to work on it. so if you just practice it, you'll get the hang of it sooner or later.
how about me and you start up a google doc one of the days i'm not busy, and practice it? you write, and i'll show you where all the punctuation goes and how to phrase certain things
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
more like I'll lose my mind and get frustrated
sure but you mean on drive? and yes I do know drive can do that with shared things
