Well, thanks for just implying I'm a bad writer I guess. My stuff got in the game but nobody seemed to care is my point.

You did write for quite niche NPCs, so maybe that is the reason why your stuff did gather much buzz. One of them was also a guy, so it did not help. As said, try writing something for AO3. Even someone like me who is a newbice when it comes to writing in english has gathered quite a following there.
Maybe so, but its still disheartening and having one person (who shall remain nameless) tell me I shouldn't care if my work gets any traction or not and imply I was wrong for doing so and have another person imply I'm shit at it doesn't incentivise me to write for this game anymore anyway. I'm not saying I wanted a standing ovation or anything but acting like I should just ignore the fact that nobody really cared and keep carrying on with the same level of passion regardless is ridiculous. I had a lot of ideas I wanted to get in eventually but it seems kind of pointless, especially when this is the audience I'm writing for. I've pretty much abandoned this place, I just said I'd chime in since my own experience seemed relevant and I get shat on. Its hard not to be a little bitter. Its funny you mention AO3, I actually have written a fanfiction recently that I'm going to be posting on there soon after I do a bit more polishing. I hope people like it and if they do I'll be writing a lot more on there too.
Fuck, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that. I was being a moron and didn't read the room right.
I meant that, unlike you, not everybody has the conviction to actually put the work in and make their ideas reality, myself included.
I still have the Google doc for one of my ideas front and center on my bookmarks bar, plus theres some other cool shit i came up with, but I know theyre nothing but a pipe dreams.
Sorry if it came of like that. Often times it is not the quality of your writing that gets you attention, but the themes/audience/fandoms you target. I can not speak for your TiTs submission since I no longer engage with that game, but just by the fact you got something in tells me that at least the writers/developers think you are doing fine job.
Thank you for apologizing, ngl that really made me angry and kind of hurt my feelings so its good to know it wasn't intentional. And you're right about the conviction stuff.
No prob. I hope you hit your stride in things soon!
Oh no, I didn't mean you, it was somebody else. That's true, I know some stuff will appeal to people more than others, especially when it comes to these games. And I appreciate you saying so, they probably do, it would just have been nice if more people cared. I do feel a bit better having talked about it though. Thank you!
Building on the conviction thing.... tbh I think if I really buckled down I could probably get something made. The issue is I have no idea how to write nsfw stuff, so that really limits my options....
I'd recommend reading nsfw fanfics and the like to help inspire you and give you an idea of how stuff like that is written. Plus stuff in the games themselves of course. It can seem daunting but once you start and get into a daily rhythm it gets easier!
You know what, maybe I will! Thanks man!
I'll probably start small. Maybe a few items....
No worries, best of luck with the writing! I'm sure you'll do great!
First things first though.... I need to figure out how to change my fucking retarded name....
If I end up in the credits of something, this is not what I wanna be known as.

You are responsible for the Abel footjob, innit? Liked it.
Also, I like browsing here for things to possibly include in my future ideas. Not everything here is just "Do X exactly", some things can be applied on the side while writing an NPC or an scene.
