^-^ Looky, everyone! Isn't it CUTE?! I have FLAMERS!! I have taken the liberty of posting some of the inane comments made here for my 100+ readers to read and laugh at!
????!!!!! 2003-05-24 1 Anonymous Let me tell you something. I and a few others are here to give you some NEW kind of reviews. And we don't plan on STOPPING!
Not God 2003-06-05 15 Anonymous Tomb Rider and Soul Reaver together...DEAR GOD NO! NO! NO! This is the work of SATAN! The Gods will strike you down for this!
Hears Johnny! 2003-06-05 1 Anonymous YOU WILL BE PUT TO DEATH FOR HAVING WRITTEN SUCH A STUPID FUCKING STORY AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Isn't this great? They're so silly! I love 'em! Well, my little anonymous reviewer, you wanted my attention, you got it. And you're about to get EVERYTHING that goes with it! First of all, you say "we", but I have seen NOTHING to indicate that there's more than one of you. After all, I have no emails or IMs to go on that there are more than one of you. If anything, I'm guessing from your writing style and your choice of talking about God and the Devil that you are male, a Christian or Catholic, and have probably never been laid in your life, and if you have, it's because you paid for it.
Also, your reference to Satan, and then to the gods indicates your lack of religious knowledge. Even if some god were to walk down and smite me for having fun and writing a story over one hundred people enjoy, it would only be YHWH (should you have the intelligence to figure out who that is), as no other god has a counter-part like Satan. Even the Egyptian, Greek, and Native American gods and spirits all had a reason and a purpose (besides tempting humans) in being in the Underworld for having risen against their creators.
And being put to death? Oh please. There are worse stories written, and there are better. No one has ever been brought to bodily harm for writing a story. As for sending it into Crystal Dynamics and your insult about it not being good enough, of course I didn't send it in, you nitwit. I have no intention of doing so until Legacy of Kain: Defiance comes out. And if my story's good enough to get posted on Nosogth.net, it's far too good for the likes of you.
You say writing this story is a waste of my time, but really, who's the one actually wasting time? I'm at least having fun doing it, and I'm entertaining over one hundred people. That's enough for me. You are the one taking your time to try and annoy me, which isn't really working. I find it more amusing than anything. If you'll notice, most of your reviews have gone down. I left a few up so the other readers can see them and laugh at them. At this point, I'd like to reprint something written by our own beloved Griz with complete permission from her to do so:
Dear Flamers and possible flamers,
Before you think of writing a nasty-gram to an author simply because you don't like one of their stories, please remember that if you don't like it, YOU DON'T HAVE TO REVIEW IT. But if you feel you must, instead of saying "this is shit my granny can right better than you", try saying what you thought sucked and what we, the authors, could do to change it and make it better.
Secondly, if you're just trying to piss people off, consider this: It doesn't work very well.
Furthermore, all you're doing is showing how immature you are. Instead of flaming the crap out of someone because you don't like their work, why don't you try being calm and rational and say WHY you thought it sucked.
Oh, and, don't flame people like me, I forward flames I get to all my friends and then we go on AIM and laugh at how dumb flaming is. And we dissect them, too. XD!
I happen to love to do the same thing. It's only your time you're wasting, not mine. Plus, you spelled here's wrong in here's Johnny! You spelled it Hears.
Anyway, onto some of the review responses:
Lilith- As for my influence on you with my writing, I have only one thing to say: HA HA! Okay, so that was two. So what?
Bloodthirsty- I always did love your little prophecies! I rather miss them, actually.
The Holy Beergut- Don't you worry your pretty little head about that uncles idea. It has been assimilated into the mess that is my muse's and my brain. And that's all I'm going to tell you.
Lunatic Pandora- the trade? Well, that'll be a while. As you know, nothing in Nosgoth ever lets those poor men (Kain and Raz) have any time to themselves. *grins maliciously*
Shadow Knight- No, you will never have a girlfriend any time soon. If you want to have a happy, healthy relationship, you will find out that the woman is ALWAYS right. It's just the way it works.
SVP- I honestly have no idea if that's Kairan and Meto in the background for that pic. I'll have to ask her.
Psycho Virus- NEED MORE ARTWORK!!! But as to your review *grin* there's a reason Lara and Raz haven't conceived another child just yet. That will be explained in the next story.
Concept of a Demon- Yes, the salvation of Nosgoth WILL be worked back into the story. This story is just a kind of filler that's going into Rose's character and her relationship with Kain.
Tremerid- Thank you very much for the compliment, and I'm glad you've been with the story through its entirety. As for Rose and her corruption, let's just say Kain is going to do his best to squish that annoying little human/conscientious side of her. She's going to do her best to keep it alive. And that's all I'm going to say. And yes, that is a pretty perverse thing to say, but I appreciate the gesture. ^^
Short, I know, but I really wanted to get back into the flow of writing the story. So, follow for the next chapter…… (And I hopefully won't be that long again.)
