Okay guys.
So we have some... issues. :|

Okay. We have a LOT of issues. <_<

I'd like to apologize to everyone for the confusion, and for accepting characters that weren't acceptable.


Let's start with ÄgàmêñÐmØÑ.

First of all, there's a lot of things that just don't work with your character at all, and show that you have a very strong weakness in understanding of Japanese culture. Either that, or your weak understanding in just how much Persona follows your typical Japanese school.

1. If you're not wearing the proper uniform, you are sent home- or perhaps given a spare to change into for the day, if it's a one-time-thing. You would not be allowed to prance around school wearing what Midori is. Please fix this.
2. Her attitude would probably get her expelled in a heartbeat. We do not flick teachers on the forehead at school- whether we are in Japan, or America.
3. I think that you should refrain from bunnying other people's characters for the time being- NPC or anything of the sort, because I don't think you really understand Mr. Shimotsuki's disposition at all. By "straight-to-the-point", I would conjecture that he would immediately throw Midori out of the classroom without arguing with her or saying anything at all. I'd ask you to try to observe a character throughout a few posts before using them to your own disposal.
4. Both Luke and I think that you have huge potential. However, you need to re-read your posts before you post them from now on, and think about them from the perspective of someone who doesn't know what you're imagining, because I frankly had no idea what happened in your post without re-reading it at least three times. xD;
5. Your quantity is perfect, but bring up the quality a notch. You move from each sentence extremely quickly, and the transition is awkward. You're not building fluid sentences, and it's not enjoyable to read your posts right now.

Hopefully these problems can be addressed, hopefully, before your next post.




Next, Gummy. Yeah Gummy you too. D: We really only have one major problem, but when I say major I mean like... major. o_o and I can't believe we missed it, since it was NOT something we should have missed.

1. You're going to have to choose a different character. :|
Like... we were hoping you'd be able to switch to a character from Japanese descent. D: Hoping is kind of understating it, but, yeah, you'll have to switch it up.

2. Um, two things just really puzzled me about your post. Why are there so many Chinese people in a Japanese school? D: Like, what was really enigmatic was Vanessa Tan.
First, Vanessa is an American name. Second, Tan is a Chinese surname.
And then the Chinese math teacher....
As much as I love Chinese people, you need to let them go for this RP.

The first problem will need to be addressed before you post next as well. The Chinese people is just a personal annoyance that I had to throw out there. xD;

Yeah, the first one is major, as it pretty much requires me to redo my entire sign up and first post (might as well delete that other one, no?). *sigh* This really put a damper on my night, but I'll get to it...

Yeah sorry. D:

You don't have to do it all right away, since you won't have to post until Chibi-chan and Luke and I have posted again.

Again, sorry about this. >_<

Okay. Thanks for telling me what was wrong, I'll re-write it. You have my word that the next posts will all be better, and have more thought into them. Sorry.

Oh, by the way, the "Main Thread" link doesn't work.

One question, it pertains to number five of my errors:

You move from each sentence extremely quickly, and the transition is awkward. You're not building fluid sentences, and it's not enjoyable to read your posts right now.

Could you please explain this? Because I have a feeling I might do it again if I have not really had it explained.

That's quite fine, improvement is more than enough to make up for all of it. :>

And... the link doesn't work?! DDD: [/I'll look into it in just a second...]

Hmm....
Well, I'd give you specific examples, but I think you deleted your post, and for some reason I can't see them. [/I'm probably set in member mode, if we ever integrated that.]

But anyway, the problem, if I recall correctly, is that your sentences are kind of like fragments. They're all kind of detatched. You don't connect things that can be connected. Like, you don't use conjustions. So all your sentences feel short. As if they're random and unrelated.

^ Like that. It just feels like.... if we used the metaphor that driving a car is like how you write a post, your car is coming to way too many full stops way too many times. Your passenger isn't going to enjoy himself. xD; And when you move from place to place, everything seems to happen right away without anyone saying it happened. A probably extreme suggestion is if I showed my character talking to someone at the door, and then the next moment he talks, he's sitting in his desk. Like, nobody tells the reader that he walked over from the door to his desk, y'know?

Okay. Well, I can't see my post either, nor can I see Gummy's. Hm.. one question, what does the school uniform look like? Is it the red and black on that link, or the green and yellow one? I am quite confused.

I asked Lokes the same question earlier: http://diehardgamefan.com/2008/09/29/character-art-shin-megami-tensei-persona-4-ps2/

Ok. Loki, do you mind if I edit the personality bit some?

Agamendmon: Edit the personality of Midori? That's fine, she's your character. xD
And it's neither the green and yellow nor the red and black one. Those are merely customizations for Yukiko and Chie- jackets over their usual uniforms. That's fine, by the way, if you wanted like a jacket. But having a totally different uniform isn't okay. xD;

Hey, I changed my persona, if you wanna look at it. Err.. but that is about the last of my tweaking.

Agamendmon:

100X BETTER.

In my opinion anyway. xD You went a little too in-depth, but let's ignore that for now, since this is MUCH better than your last post, and makes SO much more sense to me. |D You'll get the hang of how much you need to put down later on in the RP, but GOOD JOB GOOD JOB GOOD JOB. [/happyhappy] Keep it up! >:D

Anyway, I just read your sign-up's history, and other than getting a good laugh from the witchcraft (LOL!), it was good, but I just wanted to mention...

You do know that 250 yen is about $2.50 US Dollars? D:
And that 800 yen is about $8.00?

I dunno, that just kind of struck me as funny. xD; With yen, to estimate the relative amount, move your decimal over to the left two times to get how much your amount in yen would add up to in US Dollars.


IMPROVEMENT THOUGH, KUDOS TO YOU. :D

I'm sure Hibiki will probably think Midori is a crazy stalker soon enough. xD;

Yeah, I iz no good with money conversions..

Once I posted it, I thought it was a little too in-depth too

In the character list I noticed that my character is the only with their surname first.

Oh, no sorry with the character list I messed up because I thought Chibi's character's first name was Etou. (Which was weird.)

Kohaku is Hibiki's surname too, so Midori wasn't the only one. I'll go ahead and switch 'em both around though.

Channing and Jelani's names came before their surnames, because they're american, and I just messed up on Sayuu. Does that make sense? xD;

I'll have you know I'm proud of my three question marks! But if you'd like to know, I plan on naming the new guy Arata Nakamaru (first name/last name).

xD Alright, thanks~ I'll put it up there

Another Sunday, gone thanks to working on an SU. Oh well, new character is up (edited out Jelani) and I hope he's to your liking. I wouldn't expect my first post to come so quickly, though...

Not to be a nag or anything but...

D:

Chibblez, Luke, are you guys... planning on posting?

I do, actually, now that I'm finished with my graphics project and got my MS Word fixed.

My post is almost done. It'll be done after I get out of work tonight.

I am just wondering, what ever happened to that post?
