If anyone even BOTHERS reading that shit I posted for a roleplay, allow me to explain.
First and foremost, I apologize. Its shit. Its not quality. I know this.
Second. My desktop will not connect to the internet. Didnt want to waste time so I used my laptop. My laptop dies. Okay so I moved to my fucking cellphone. Yes, I copied, pasted, and went to code an entire promo from my phone to the boards.
Maybe its my phone, or maybe its the website-but for some reason the "paste" option doesnt do shit-it just places EVERYTHING i wrote in the wrong order.
SO when I WENT to paste, coding-GONE. Nothing was it was or originally written. Half of the stuff I had written is gone.
I'm fed up with this stress and frustration of tackling writing. Literally.
Its not this fed. Its not these people. Its circumstance. I already know I am going to get a huge amount of heat from this and lose a lot of respect from a lot of people, but I cant even send in the match I wrote today because its locked on my desktop hard drive and its NOT allowing me to access it.
The promo I posted is proof of the bullshit I've been screaming at my phone, laptop, and desktop over for the past hour.
I'm taking an extended leave for a while. Some people feel negatively towards that-I get it, but personally after this problem popping up again. I just cant deal with it.
I'll cool off, come back in a week or two. and maybe-and thats if maybe I havent even burned a bridge or two, tackle this again.
Again, this isnt an excuse. this is real and this is really F'ING frustrating, but I truly am sorry. For being a game its just too difficult to deal with right now. I dont know. But I'll talk to you all again soon.

Wow on people posting RP's on their phones. I could never do that to save my life because I would have to do grammar check and proof read everything which I can't do on a smartphone at all. Hope you will be back soon buddy.

Yeah some people are better with the app then others, I remember reading Lively's rps and thinking "How the hell does this guy gets shit posted so neatly?". The did everything from his last run, pretty much from his phone. Speaking of which, where do you save the docs at on your phone? Or for that matter even codec it?

Just adding in here, in case it's of help to anyone: One week, recently, I was computer-less for a promo. I have an iPhone, and you can set up shortcuts for words. I'd come up with a shortcut for the formatting code and type that in because the formatting buttons are just annoying to get to.
But also: If you can get a speech-to-text app (like Siri for iPhone) you can speak your promos from start to finish. Much easier than typing, trust me. That's what I ended up doing ... and still do a bit now.

^ This.
I went through a three-month period where I would write full promos, matches, and construct shows from my iPhone. If you have a speech-to-text application, it's surprisingly easy... As long as you have a fairly clear voice.
A smartphone isn't cheap, but it's usually a hell of a lot cheaper than a decent computer. Like someone mentioned earlier, you really get used to it.

I started my second RP for Mayhem 2013 on my laptop but ended up finishing it on my phone because I wasn't home for most of that day. I'd only do the phone thing again if I have to or if I won't have reliable access to the Internet.

The theory of Superman is what I mean, I'd hope TMarv didn't wear that much spandex..
And umm...Superman been around for YEARS, before your Daddy was a sperm to be injected. Can't hate something so old and it be a COMIC Character. That's like disliking Mickey Mouse. Whats with you..

Kash, of all the comic book characters, Superman is the gayest in my opinion. I dunno, they have this movie coming out with him and Batman where they're supposed to fight each other? How the hell does that work. Superman can do anything and has special powers so how would Batman even be a challenge. All he has is expensive gadgets and no powers. I dunno. Way off subject.

One there are comics, older comics where they clash. Batman has gadgets and guns in some comics.. Plus I don't think it's a fight but more of Batman who has experience being a Super Hero, helping a young Superman to become a better Hero for the people. Lex Luther is also going to be in this new movie and it'd be outright DUMB for Batman and Superman to fight throughout the entire movie but instead turn to Luther for a villain role. This is what I've read from different articles.
Comics do alot of weird things. Green Lantern is Gay now. BatWoman was gay but DC Comics are scrapping that idea to the anger of many people. Batman with guns is dumb in itself but in some Adult Comics or Graphic Comics, he does have them when against someone with actual powers and abilities. Comics have too many writers coming in and out, changing the story and base of the characters that I believe it's a huge reason why comics have died out in popularity. Too many rewrites.
