Hello all.

Thanks (Largely) to Major Tom Sawyer ( :Bow: :Bow: :Bow: ) there is a new NPC in the works. Her name is October and I think she will be something special. We have a workroom here (for the moment) but need some help ? mostly right now I?m looking for a proofreader/editor/writer to look over the banters and chop them down/edit them to more useable sizes.

Be forwarned, my Code sucks, :doh: this is why other people more knowledgeable are working on that part ? what I need is someone to rewrite some and edit ? and if ya have any ideas, so much the better.

If you are interested please contact me soon. I need to get this part done as possible. I will be posting this in other forums around the net (unless I hear I shouldn?t) so please have a look and ask any questions you?d like.

Respectfully to all. :cheers:

They say the world is going to Hell.

They are wrong.

The world IS Hell! Always has been, always will be; except perhaps for the five percent or so of the population who can afford differently.

And, if one must reside in Hell, it is far better to do it as a minion of the Devil than as a member of the damned.

Well, if it is mostly text-wise work that you require, I am yours as a more or less intelligent spell checker, and with proper instruction, I can try to offer some constructive critique to the banters. However, where coding should be proofread, I have hardly started learning, so I am afraid that I would not be of much help there. What say you?

Hiya!

And THANKS for answering!!! :D

Welp, I am looking for someone to edit the banters for size and content (IE chop them into small bite sized chunks and/or make them sound like the character they are from.) A creative challenge. Far as I am concerned, write/rewrite them out without code at all.

Well, really though, Don't worry about coding issues - MINE are horrible, just ask...uhm, Anybody. But there are others who KNOW what they are doing code wise and have agreed to do that end.

Drop me a pm and I will get you access to her forum. :)

THANKS

I'll help if I can. My deadline issues are latently notorious, however...

"Tyranny is a quiet thing at first, a prim and proper lady pursing her lips and shaking her head disapprovingly, asking, well what were you doing (wearing that dress, walking home at that hour, expressing those inappropriate thoughts) anyway? It's subtle and insidious, disguised as reasonable precautions which become more and more oppressive over time, until our lives are defined by the things we must avoid. She's easy enough to agree with, after all, she's only trying to help -- and yet she's one of the most dangerous influences we face, because if she prevails, it puts the raping, robbing, axe-wielding madmen of the world in complete control. Eventually they'll barely need to wield a thing, all they'll have to do is leer menacingly and we fall all over ourselves trying to placate them." -godlizard

I am very excited about the possibility of working on this project as a proofreader and spell checker.
I also have a ton of ideas and concepts that may, or may not, be useful.
If you are still needing help, and would like my help, please let me know!

I will talk to Kal here about getting you access to the WorkRoom.

Believe me, we (Spell that *I* ) need all the help possible. On the other hand, I think this will be good when it gets going.

Eternal thanks to MajorTomSawyer and TheBigg along with all others who have advised and helped me over the yrs.

I can see you've got plenty of applicants already, but if you need one more, I'm up for it!

Actually, MOST of my, uhm...help...has gone belly up, truth be told. :crying:

The Exception to that rule is KELDON who has been a dimond in the rough from the git go, and someone I can't say enough good things about!!! :cheers:

I might just contact you via PM, though this would have to be via email as OCTOBER's workroom has since closed for the moment.

Restraining myself here for the good of all. :whistling: :unsure:

Well, just say the word. I've got exams coming up, but I'll have a little free time for a while, until April 20th when I go home... then I'll have all the time in the world.
