Writer Feedback

[Darth Ferus]

Pretty simple idea.

A forum where writers can ask for feedback on what they've written to the site from anyone on the site.

Not much else to say with it.

 

[Thurion Heavenshield]

You mean like the 'Feedback & Suggestions' forum, which includes a 'Feedback' prefix...?

Last site I was on who had this ended up with a (Language)

Spoiler

Why the kark are you posting that in here you noob. This forum is for feedback on the site, not for yourself.

Only by pretty much the entire site.

I'd rather not go through it again.


-Edit-

Also, more to the point, this section should be only for site feedback, and if a writer wishes for their own, there should be a forum for it. I don't see an issue with it myself, and if you have a reason why there can't be a forum for personal feedback, I'm all ears.

Why this thread is around though.

See there.

If that were to happen here, they'd be punished. Don't know how the admins did things over on that site, but here we deal with people misbehaving.

Redardless.

Tefka has made it clear that these sort of threads should be put on the character bio. Which makes no sense if someone is asking for multiple character feedback, or general feedback.

Too much cluttering when a sub forum can be made for the reason. I'd do it myself if I could.

Feedback & Suggestions

This forum is for site feedback, and not for what he's asking for - and you know that.

Get more people to get on board with this or my hands are tied.

I don't think it's a bad idea.

 

[The Red of Sinner]

I approve

 

[Alask Diruno]

Its got my vote.

 

[Malok]

Sounds like a solid idea, I'm down.

I try not to reply to public 'Feedback' threads. Everybody loves the praise but nobody can stomach the criticisms or those teenage Naruto suggestions, lol, no matter how constructive or positive they can be.

Oh no, I much prefer to keep all my 'feedback' in private. Tucked away from public view. Either through PM or Skype, and only with those people I am Roleplaying with currently. That way, they can be very real to me. Public threads on the website have a grand way of making people very... Erm, 'politically correct' or 'overtly polite'. ...Well. Or of being pompous, cliche'ish, comical, and generally exaggerated fluff. Haha. None of which are really helpful if you are trying to succeed at being a better writer.

[member="Krest"] , (and everybody else who desires excellent feedback,) I strongly recommend you PM your most common writing partners and ask for feedback through PM's or Skype chat. In my long experience, you are much more likely to receive intimate, positive, and constructive comments that way. Than simply by polling the community or soap-boxing.

Cheers and best wishes!

Public feedback, for me at least, is more of a slap to reality then insulting, and I'm sure there are other people like that. It's not a mandatory forum, and it should be for those who will accept that there will be feedback they won't like.

And, more often then not, you will learn more about what you can fix by people you don't RP with a lot then those you do.

I approve too, feedback never hurts and it'll give people a chance to improve themselves I think

XD I love it

[member="Jay Scott Clark"]

But yeah, I agree with [member="Krest"] on this one, I would prefer the comments be they negative, or positive from everyone willing to say something, someone goes to far Jay, guess what, report it.

 

[Reverance]

I approve of the idea, so long as people can accept the possibility of true tough love constructive criticism.

You remember those 'Staff Critique' Threads right? The ones where people felt naturally inclined to roast somebody over the coals for both IC and OOC shenanigans, dramatic effect, or even 'perceived' slights? Well. I sure do. Haha. ...Ugh.

Naturally all good things have that human-chance to be abused in earnest, so I can't actually persuade you otherwise. Making the attempt is half the battle anyway. So yeah. Give it a shot and we'll see if people are responsible enough to use it with wisdom.

Nice.

 

[Mr. OOC]

I can dig it.

 

[Gherron Dragovalor]

I approve

 

[The Red of Sinner]

For every approve we get here, I shall give thee a royal cookie of the chocolate chip variety.
