It's how progress is made, and people that make progress are awesome. Of course, if you're genuinely stupid, or think you are, just try as hard as you can. For example, don't flip out because someone supports a different pairing/idea than you, or an episode didn't go exactly as you planned. Word of objection being you. Be mature, and deal with difference.

Do I have personality?

If that's basically what you're saying, introduce something else in the same post. Or, at least, don't make it a habit. And if you have an idea, just don't leave it at a sentence- expand on it. Personally, I eat up detail.

I don't know about this one. Me, I love brevity. And sometimes everything someone wants to say may already have already been said by others.
And "And if you have an idea, just don't leave it at a sentence- expand on it" is EXACTLY the reverse of what A-Xana needs to do... Far too much detail, that boy.

This one can differ a lot according to the own poster. What you may interesting, i may find it boring. Or what I find interesting, other will disagree with me. You can't change that.Carth wrote:6.

I'm having trouble with this own rule. Pretending is something not real IMO, it's just an act.
The other stuff I can agree with, though. Point 6 is kinda insulting...
