Hi all.

Could someone out there give a little help/advise on how/where to cut 2 banters I have going?

I started them long ago before I knew as much about modding (rules) as I do now, and though they have required info they are far to long.

Problem is, I don't know where/how to cut them and still have them make sense - a topic from Banter 1 that the character doesn't Want to talk about might get re-addressed in banter three, say... But mainly they are to long and if I cut them I might screw them up terribly.

Any ideas?

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 PM them if you don't want to show them for in this matter it is hard to see if you can cut them in a nice way.

P.s. One NPC getting fed up with the discussion and the other NPC picking it up later as this second NPC wants to let the topic go is a good way of splitting up long banter... sometimes, it is just too good to split in my eyes though. I have one 2 A4 banter between Ian and Keltor and I shall not split it up.

Still modding the Mod for the Wicked... It is a big project you know... And I got sidetracked (several times) a bit... sorry.

You can send me a PM if you'd like my thoughts; I'm quite comfortable with editing/proofreading.
