Uncatagorized

Thanks! It finally means I can finish the actual story after five months of continuous copying and pasting.

I finally finished renaming every page from that damned story. I'm guessing you won't miss deleting sixty blank pages every day from the same person!
(Seriously though, that took way long to do).

Hi Platypus.
Sorry for bugging you again. I know I could probably find this info on the wiki (I suck at using it anyway) but, just out of interest, how long have you been working on the site? -Adam02oc

Hey platipus. I did add a title. What are you talking about? >Add new comments below by clicking on the 'edit' button above. Do not add new comments to the archives.

Hey dude, i do not know if i am overriding other peoples work or not, i understand the warnings, but lack the knowledge to put the information contained in said warnings to use.

Please help, the main page has been taken over...

@Platypus Thank You for correcting it. I may be an English major, but I'm certainly no Grammar Nazi, so I tend to miss things fairly often. I usually correct it if I notice. Sorry bout that. Looking forward to working with you! - User:Durzan replied 11:23PM MST; Jan 21st, 2018

@Platypus, I apologize for making my first entry here so sloppy. I occasionally write, but not all the time, resulting in a wobbly mess of a entry. With Sincerest Apologies, YouCouldMakeAReligionOutOfThis // Reply was at 1:41 pm, Boston Time.

@Platypus, you mentioned that I (@Oddbeach) forgot to include a category bar. Would you please tell me where I make this mistake? Thanks :)

@Platypus, in response to your reaction to my (Rogan-thumb) addition to you story; I was wondering whether it would be okay if I were to continue making additions and edits, or if you would prefer me to step back? Which I will happily do so.

@Platypus, understood. I will attempt my own story at some point. Thanks for the tips and the criticism. I'll aim to improve in future. --Rogan-thumb

@Platypus, really sorry and ashamed about my mistakes on editing your stories. I'll get right on reading the reccomendations you gave me. English is kind of my third language, but I promise it will get better. The story was so massive I didn't expect you minded if I filled up some of the blanks. If you believe my writting skills to be poor - as in, the situation I'm presenting is unappealing -, that I would also like to hear. -- AvengerOstrich

@Platypus Hi, thanks for your message. I am pretty particular about grammar myself, I have tried my best but I realise that I'm not perfect. I have enjoyed reading the story on the site, but frustrated that there were so many dead links. Do you get many contributors or have you written most of this yourself? Regards, GilboBaggins.

@Platypus Hey! Thanks for sending me a message and linking me the appropriate tutorials. I only started contributing to stories yesterday so I was a bit fuzzy on the details on what you need to do. As for the second comment regarding ripping out other people's stories, I just wanted to apologize for that. When you edit something the note below reads "Please note that all contributions to Create Your Own Story may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors. If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then don't submit it here.", so I thought it was alright. Clearly I just misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying that for me. P.S, is there a way to delete a option/category after you've made it? I wanted to change to advanced linking just in case but first, I need to delete the internal links I created otherwise there'll just be an internal link that nobody can reach. Thanks in advance. - RichterQ87 // Posted at 23:48 GMT, 25.04.2018

@Platypus Hey! I just had a grammar related question since you said you were something of a grammar Nazi and Googling for the word I'm searching for hasn't worked. What's the word for 'seeking out someone's better/good nature'? You know, like when someone is begging someone and they try to find the good part of them to guilt trip them. For some reason the word 'apply' comes to mind but that's not right. 'Apply to someone's good nature'. Nope. While not strictly grammar related, I can't think of anyone else to ask. Thanks in advance. - RichterQ87 // Posted at 02:21 GMT, 25.04.2018 Edit: I found out the word is 'appeal'. Thanks anyway.

@Platypus Sorry about that. I'm new to the site and will keep it in mind next time to write in the category. I just finished reading through the rules and tutorial now; thanks for letting me know.
