So... as I continue on working on getting chapters for my story published, I
get suggestions such as adding pictures to the chapters of my story that don't
have any, or adding more fluff to the chapters that have pictures already.
However, before I even consider doing either, I'd like to open a little
question to everyone.

Why do you read stories posted to .castle (or anywhere on lugnet)?  Do you read
them for the plot lines?  Do you read them to be nice to the person who posted?
Do you read them not for the story but merely for the eye candy (pictures)?  A
combo of these, or some other reason entirely?

So what do you think?

(...) I read the stories for a number of these reasons. It depends on various factors. I'll initially look at pretty much any story posted here. But I am primarily here for Lego. So generally, if I don't see any Lego then I very quickly leave. If I (...) (23 years ago, 20-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

I mainly read stories for the "eye candy". I haven't gotten around to creating my own story or joining the IOM because to me personally, lego is about building stuff, not making stories with minifigs. I'll be honest and I say I haven't really read (...) (23 years ago, 20-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

Hi, As with others, it is the Lego that draws me in, but a good plot can enhance the Lego experience. Mostly, though, when I come here I'm looking for Lego. For reading a story I'd rather curl up with a book than a computer screen. I'm (...) (23 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I read them because you have threatened my life if I don't! (I'm serious folks, he's figured out where I live and sent me ticking packages!!!!) But seriously, I started reading Sava's stories when they were first posted because the idea was (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
