I guess a lot of things never really do change. I don’t know why I should feel that way half the time, but then when I think of it, I have to say it is true. Nothing really does change half the time. It just plays a masquerade. Forsooth I never understood people. Why? There always has to be either a reason to why you’re not feeling on the up and up. Or there has to be something wrong with you just to get one of your closest friends to talk to you. For me it’s never really that hard. Why? Because, I help people, I do whatever it is I can to make them either happy or stop being sad about how either “Life sucks” or “How can you handle such a facade of lies!” Why do people always take the little things so seriously? Even I do at times. Like when I give an Idea that people could have fun with I post it up on the forums. But then I get like 20 views but no replies. While some other person posts the same idea but in different context and story plot and gets more replies than views. Why do I complain about this one? Because it’s not just my writings. If I need help, no replies, if I need an opinion, no replies, if I need and Idea, no replies. “Oh that’s so not true Ryan. We soooo look at your threads and reply.” Yeah the ones that either mean Jack shit. Or the ones that sooner or later are about personal issues that someone else has to start a fucking debate on.
“Oh you complain about views and replies. Why?”
I complain about not having replies because it makes more sense to have replies showing that people care enough to shed their light from they’re dark mind into the light world for once. I mean I could use an honest opinion on my work. I love to write and design, but where is the point to it if I can’t get even the smallest critique? Let me put this in the lame mans term for a bit. The forum gets a new site design. Cool huh? If the admins or mods won’t make a thread on it. Guess what? The members will. Why? They show some sort of devotion that isn’t really worth a nickel. They just want to shed their own light. You know I don’t care to show my work on Devi because I know I am better off posting my work on a forum where the is more activity going on. So that would mean more views per day with more replies. Yes. God knows people can’t take up five minutes to type up a 1 sentence or one word review like every other little person would. Here let me give you an example.
“I just took about 6 minutes to type up this whole rant in Microsoft office enterprise 2007. “
“Cool”
So hard right? Geese. I am off to class.
How do you think I feel? I published 50+ submissions both here AND Furaffinity, and I have barely received any recognition for most of my work. Yet I still write more every day because I have the passion to write, and I know that there are at least a few people enjoy it.

As for your rants, you realize that you post the same general thing almost every time you posted a new thread here about family problems or issues with friends. Half the time, it feels like I've read about it before in your previous rants. I bet other people have as well, and they've grown tired of it. What are they supposed to say after the nteenth time you've reiterated the same drama you've got in your life?
Amen. And if you want criticism, ask for it, like I do most of the time. It's been reiterated multiple times on here: The life of a writer is one that needs skill AND luck to prevail. But like two-face from Batman said: You fabricate your own luck. So, instead of whining about it, get your criticism by asking people to give it to you.
I know most of my rants tend to get old. But the section I post in are kinda obvious though. Although one story I asked for no critique because I knew what I did wrong. I threw an RP idea but sadly no dice.

Read it, didn't like, that's why I didn't bother to reply. If you want to appeal to others' attention, why don't you try giving them the link and asking them to leave a reply?
I don't know to be honest.
None of us get enough attention.
Attention eh?
Do you even know what I'm good at?
I just want critique to be honest. Not really the "Hey look at my work over here and give me all your attention and flash me!"
Tch! You want an honest review? Even more an outlandish request.
