I apologise profusely for making the Clover do those things and speak like that. It is not fair on the Clover.

Though I didn't write any of it, I just read it all in one sitting, and now I'm finding it difficult to spell correctly. I applaud the strength of those able to stand purposely making all those mistakes. Good thing most of us are already insane.
I'm glad to see this helped! by

Personally, I didn't get so deeply involved as some of you - the literal pain in my eyes kept me from reading everything - but I've been suffering the after-effects of deliberate bad spelling ever since, not to mention the shame of giving my seven-years-younger badfic writer self a name and chance to escape the cage in back of my head. It's a painfully sharp lesson in how immature and arrogant I really was.
*snaps off some chocolate* My eyes are soothed... Nice spelling; good spelling...

Ahhh, peace. *shares in the chocolate* I think the worst thing for me is the way the badficcers always seem to be talking at the top of their voices. They don't even need exclamation points or capslock. Those just make it worse.
Maybe it has something to do with all of them wanting attention so badly. I think Brandy is actually fairly "cool" in "real life," which would explain why she has no motivation to improve: No one has the nerve to tell her she's bad. But that coolness also goes hand in hand with craving that sort of attention.
I also think I have an advantage in sanity, with Brandy being a distinct character whose voice I'm simply borrowing. It's definitely NOT ME writing that badly, sort of thing.
~Neshomeh, who has an epic badfic so-called-plot bunny now, but might have to keep it caged until next year so she doesn't fry her writing circuits.

The peace... the spelling... the grammar... bliss.

Oh sweet Eru, I cannot believe my FFL persona has gone as far as to attempt to start a flame war. When this is over, I am going to batter the little cow into pulp and feed it to the unadopted mini-Balrogs.

I am well and truly scared of myself now. I'm just going to step back, damn my fingers for not getting the message that I am no longer playing and munch down on whatever chocolatey treats I can get my hands on. I posted three chapters of extremely bad spelling and grammar, mid-sentence author's notes and non-existent punctuation and deserve a break.
My mum saw what I wrote, was horrified and threatened to send me back to primary school to relearn the English language from scratch, that's how bad it was for me.

drrkayngylhez or however I spelt it had no sense of characterisation, spelling, or, indeed, subtle usernames. I'm nervous that the game may have lowered my IQ - I made lots of typoes in this before staring at it and correcting it. Thank God for this.

I don't know... I think I'm fine but the idea that people actually write profiles and stories like that...
Well, let's just say I'm disturbed and leave it at that.
Blumble, anyone?

I was really enjoying reading all the stories (the profiles were my favorite part, though) until I remembered that real people actually write profiles and stories like that. Time for lots and lots of chocolate and Bleepka (there should be chocolate covered Bleepka; like those truffles with brandy in the middle).

My 'fic's pretty much written in lolcat. 'S nice to be able to spell words correctly, as frighteningly easy as it was to spell them incorrectly.
