You're so nice.

Wed Aug 19, 2009, 4:11 PM
Have any of you ever been told this and had to chuckle about it to an extent?

I'm a world of warcraft player and an officer in the guild I belong to. One of my guildies recently told me that I was nice and it made me laugh a little and made me think of how people can appear differently to different beholders.

My character is a paladin thus I perform either the roll of tank or healer during raids two jobs most avoid. I'm also a Black Smith and will at times make items for guild members for free and help them get their characters geared up. I tend to help those players who are more timid and need some aid such as a shaman healer we recently recruited.

She needed new healing gear as what she had was weak. So me and a few of the other officers took her through some dungeons to help her gear up. Dungeons that she had no real business being in but well she had an over geared tank with her and damage dealers who are so over geared they killed most bosses before she had time to cast 5 heals.

Yet those people who were kindly helping their guildie get new gear are also some of the most bastardly player killers in our guild if not the worse and that includes me. I've stayed around the same zone and killed people trying to quest there in excess of seven times such that they felt the need to create a new character of the same faction as mine just to fuss at me.

That's what really strikes me as humerous though. The people who tend to be the kindest most helpful and patient to their allies are also the most active player killers in the entire guild. We're the ones that will go out and kill a member of the opposing faction just because they happened to be fishing in the wrong area and throw people off cliffs to cause them to take durability damage and force a repair bill.

I guess how nice someone is really depends on what side of the fense you're standing on.

    You're welcome thanks for producing art that's worth seeing. I can't say I enjoy all of it but I enjoy enough of it that it's most assuredly worth a watch. The one game I played of yours (giantess knockout) was also quite nice as well if a little easy in my opinion even at five stars.

    I hope you don't mind me asking but you more designed it for people who rarely play such games didn't you? I'm far from a top of the line twitch gunner but her steps seemed slow and easy to avoid even to me.
    :iconyellowfeather:
    Giantess Knockout is pretty easy right now. I made the game in 4 days, so I didn't have much time to fine tune the difficulty or program more advanced patterns to avoid.

    It will get more challenging with future updates. A new feature I'm considering is, if you beat the game on the hardest difficulty, the game makes the hardest difficulty even more difficult.

    Stay tuned for more!

    Now that second feature could be interesting though I'm afraid that if you set it up like that it would quickly climb towards near impossible. You'd just need one person who seriously enjoys shooter style games to push the limit.

    only one way to find out!

    Good day, I´ve been reading "Kate´s story" on another website and just loved it. Despite a few grammar and spelling mistakes, It´s certainly a very admirable piece of work. When I finished the last chapter though, I felt a bit dissapointed that the story just ended and seemed a bit inconclusive. I managed to find a couple other of your stories on the web after that and after briefly looking over them I got the idea that a similar scenario might take place, though I can´t say for sure since I haven´t actually read them yet. I was just wondering if you plan on writing a sequel for "Kate´s story", or any of your other works for that matter. I would truly appreciate it if you did (at least for the first one), since I find your writing style and ideas to be very admirable due to the fact that you take many aspects of human nature and culture into consideration (religion, moral values, ethics, etc) that are often overlooked as unimportant detalis, and it would be very pleasing to observe more continuity in this story. I can definately tell that you dedicate a lot of effort into your writings and that you have an exceptionally creative mind.
    Best regards,
    ATE

    Thanks and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the story.

    I can't say I plan to follow up Kate's story though. Lucy in the Inescapable Guardian was meant to be Kate's successor any many regards such that if Kate was the test model Lucy is the fully refined product with most if not all the bugs worked out.

    At the moment I don't plan on writing a sequal to any of my works at least in the immediate future. I want to finish The chains she chose and unyielding hunger. I also want to begin work on my little lady Dremera who I haven't introduced to the community yet.

    Over all I feel I made too many mistakes with Lucy's story to make it worth writing a sequal about as that would mean I have to refine the older version. A sex seen in every chapter of the story was probably the worse ideal I've ever had.

    Hi, I have finally read the two first chapters of unyielding hunger. It's a great story, it's been a long time I didn't read a so good stories like that.
    :iconhappiest-in-shadows:
    I'm glad you're enjoying it. I try to put up a 12 page update every week but even doing that it'll be a while before the story is finished. So hopefully you'll enjoy the future sections.
    :iconericnthered123:
    Looking forward to reading your stories. :D
