"Begin, the operation!"

Okay, let's back up and kill the shitstorm. I must have come off as a bit harsh, because I got some people a bit riled up. Forgive me. Arguing on 4chan constantly has given me something of an aggressive attitude, and I understand that not everyone here would be accustomed to that.
To my credit, at least I'm not going "shit sux, kill yourself, etc". Hey now, I didn't say that. I appreciate a good WAFF as much as any. I'm just saying that we seem to be rather overloaded with it. Quote:
How am I incorrect? The story is about someone who stars in pornography? Am I wrong? Quote:
Yes, I do despise pornography. I'm not the only one who does, but that said, I'm not elevating myself upon a higher pedestal because I don't like it compared to people who do. It's simply a matter of taste and personal preference, and, having tasted it, I decided that it left something bitter in my mouth. In my eyes, the very concept of pornography absolutely destroys the beauty of sex. There's no love, no desire, just two people getting it like rabbits for the enjoyment of people who like to watch it. I just can't get over that, you know? For me, sex is supposed to be a wonderful thing that two people who are deeply in love should share, and it shouldn't be sold for money. That's not fair to anyone, I don't think. And I'm kinda of the opinion that pornography destroys anything women ever strived for when it comes to have equal rights. Yes, I know women still watch it, and that's cool too, I just feel that these people, men and women both, are degrading themselves. It seems to me that these people would have serious psychological issues. Lastly, that's what it was gonna be, and this is what it is. MSLN did not end up an H-game/anime/whatever, and I think it's better for that. Sex kinda gets in the way of plot for some people (read: This is why F/SN's non-H version is way better than the H-version, unless you absolutely positively need it). Quote:

And also, you called me out, and I'll accept it. Post me links to everything written for the story, and I'll gladly read it tomorrow. If that's what it takes, fine. I don't care and I'm not so arrogant as to dismiss absolutely everything. Quote:
Anytime. Quote:
Quote:
You as an author know as well as I do that people aren't going to like everything you write, whether it's the current issue or anything else. I'm sure there are people who won't read anything you've been writing simply because you have an OC in there. You can't please everyone. You shouldn't try to please everyone. It'll make you sick worrying about it. Quote:
And it's personal bias. My experience with anything involving pornography, implied or explicit, usually ends badly for me. My brain goes into overdrive, I think about it too hard, and then I get headaches. Quote:
As for looking like an idiot, I stopped caring about that a long time ago. It only makes my head hurt when I care about what others think of me. Quote:
You're mad, and I fail to understand why. It's just a story, right? Nothing to get upset about... And I won't, not until I get someone to link me the... er, scenes, chapters, what have you. Quote:
I await everyone's reply rather eagerly. I'm always up for clarifying my thoughts when directing them to others, as I know that sometimes it can be lost in the way my head works. Since SB told me earlier that I shouldn't post 4chan style because "we should probably keep it there" or something, I'll try and be calm. Actually, I take that back. I will be calm, because there's nothing to be angry about. Besides, stimulating the mind is always good for you .

I just feel somewhat annoyed that my whole counter to the love is fluff idea was ignored. Repost below.

It was probably ignored because many people have not the slightest clue who those people are, and aren't really inclined to read their Wiki entries, as they really don't care that much either. Not everyone loves to read up on American war heroes.

True. As proven by Obama and the Legion, the vast populace cares not for those who serve them, only for their personal enjoyment.
Most of those guys above died throwing themselves on grenades, ensuring they would die so that their friends would live. Murphy and Smith were killed in combat by making themselves that couldn't be missed so that everyone would go after them instead. Five Medal of Honor Winners, 1 Navy Cross. Not too shabby.

Fluff is good for the brain. Overload of fluff counteracts all the reading I have to do for ultra-depressing class on mental illnesses, including the 700-page tome about a guy with schizophrenia, another guy who is so lost in grief that he tries to teach his dog to talk, and now... a girl who's traumatized by almost-rape and is now fixated and unlocking the puzzle of a late homeless guy with schizophrenia.
Fluff. Overload. Equals. Love~~ D: So don't hate against the influx of WAFF. Edit: Enough clogging of the off-topic quota with stuff loosely related to PS!Vivio. That energy could be better spent writing fics. Or you know, reading. Or having a life outside the FFT (that one's always particularly fun). Wheet. |

@Kagerou: People are upset because you proudly declared you didn't read it and then proceeded to bash it with personal beliefs and ideas that are completely unrelated to the story. You think this story is about Vivio being a porn star, and hate it because of that. In reality, vivio's job is being an porn star but the story is about her trying to understand what love is, as well as just trying to make it through her life.
@Goose: 95% of the people here aren't Americans, so they probably don't care at all about the things you listed.

@Keroko & Satashi: Hell, 95% of Americans themselves don't care.
Point I tried to make, which apparently got overrun, was simply that fluff isn't the end all be all of love. It's been said, "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." That's a sort of love that I try to show in my writing (nevermind that I haven't gotten up to that point in the story yet). Yes, that is a spoiler for my TF6 project. People are going to die in it. (Though not like the bucketloads in Alpha... like almost 85% of all OCs died, no less than 9 CCs died, Signum was killed and zergified and resurrected as the Queen of Blades (unholy fusion of Kerrigan & Signum), even the dead weren't spared; Precia was revived and killed, Alicia was revived and killed, I think we killed Vivio somewhere along the line, ditto Nanoha... let's not get into Erusia getting glassed, Mid-Childa being fucked up, and Earth ending up as a last bastion of safety due to the Almighty Badass of the United States Marines and the TSAB Marines.) "Regret...regret...regret..." "Catchy. Any idea what it means?" "Dear humanity: We regret being alien bastards. We regret comin' to Earth. And we most certainly regret the Corps shooting up our raggedy-ass parasite fleet!"

We both like different things, so generally the war stuff is accepted on OC thread (even if it really isn't OC much) and the love stuff is more accepted here ( even if , for example, Syn shows up) @Goose: Sorry, I don't care about things like that either,even if I am American. I don't want to read about people blowing up and getting shot regardless of why it happened >.<

And some deaths are especially memorable and strike the heart. Episode 20 of Macross Frontier. Michel Blanc's death is one of those scenes that resonate with you: touching, sad, painful, shocking... and to add insult to injury, the BGM song, Shinku no Diamond Crevasse, is a girl singing about parting with the guy she loves. Alpha, meanwhile, is a dead fic. It won't be continued, so you don't have to nerdrage away, mon Legionaire. And besides, sure, we killed Vivio... ...and she was reborn as Der Sankt Kaiser, so I think it was a fair trade. Oh yeah, in TF6, Vivio technically dies at one point - her heart is stopped. "Charging! Two hundred!" "Clear!" *beepbeepbeep* "We got a pulse!" The power of modern medicine. You can "die" and be "resurrected". Quote:
That's your choice. It is, afterall, your life, to do with what you will. Quote:
The rest of OC? Lotsa different things, and not all is war (atm it's like only me and TK are writing stuff that's more militariy & tactically oriented). But yes, there is more combat and action in OC writings. Besides, I write about love too. It's just subtler and a different kind of love. Not related by blood incest & tsundere imouto FTW. Oh, and married couples. Quote:
But yes, most people don't care, especially in FFT. That's why I don't really post here, because FFT is not my target audience. (Which would, this time 1 year ago, caused another minirant on how FFT is not truly welcoming of all fanfics but we went through that once and don't need to do so again. I know my audience and it isn't here.)
