One full year anniversary · 11:30pm May 30th, 2013
Guess what. I have been on this site for a whole year now.
A little bit crazy actually, because it means that I have been officially part of the Fo:E community for just as long time, and looking back do I not really think that I have done anything as such.
Ohh sure I have read a lot, and given a lot of feedback, motivational talks and brought me some fanart to a pair of stories. I have pre-read, edited and made just as many brilliant as stupid ideas. I have been helping keeping stories alive, polished a peal time and time again so it shone in the light from the features around the web, and I have tried to work on one of the simply worst Fo:E stories there is on this site. And I know for a fact that I also have killed two, not by trolling, but by feedback pointing out mistakes, are even somewhat proud of having killed one of them. I have been an admin, torn my hair out, left, and not long ago taken the job that I threw away from me in a tantrum up again.
And yet does a little part of my brain say that I haven´t really done anything at all.
In one year have I gotten and lost friends, and also met a pair of trolls for that matter. I have had long and deep discussions about the symbolism in small sentences, how they create and destroy stories, and I did once create a theory with a dear friend of my how the Enclave made their clouds with big dryers, because that is just so logical... Right?
It is fun looking at all this, both back and what I have done, and forth on what I plan. Funny knowing that I have had my fingers in creating stories that hundreds, if not a pair of thousands, have read at one point or another, and here am I talking dedicated pre-reading, and not how I somewhat have formed some stories with feedback... by god it must for certain be a pair of thousands that have read something that I have influenced then.
And yet... I am admin in the 2nd largest RP group on this site, and the 35th and 36th largest groups over all... And yet do I not really think that I have done anything. I know that I am wrong, I can see on the numbers that I have mentioned, or just surf around the site and see my name being mentioned on a pair of Fo:E stories.
So both a good and a somewhat sad day for me today.

You know what this calls for? A party!

No and no. I will not say anything about the stories that I have killed.
Ah so that's what you do, creeping amongst the fics and grooming your favorites
Never mind, I'm honoured to have caught your eye. And if what you say is true then you've had a lot of hard work, and anyone would be proud to have worked as hard as you.

Actually yes and no. I groom the stories that I like, keep coming back again and again and do my best with finding mistakes and bring feedback. But generally do I leave feedback on all stories that I read by now, making my lists of nitpicks and say a few words about what there went right or wrong.
And creeping? No I do no such thing. I am rather loud and vocal when I do stuff.

I hope you realize I was joking, no offence meant my good sir. I simply imagined you with an army of your chosen writer-minions
1116298
It is actually the other way around, with me as the minion that runs from master to master and points out flaws and fixes small stuff... Although I like the idea of the army you have
Oh, you've done plenty, Doom.
You just have to find it in you to believe it.
1117945
And that is the thing... I have a really really hard time doing that
1117946 Well then, that's just you. Cause me? I see the stuff you did.
1117947
Nice that others can see it when I can´t at least
