  Re: The Wanderer, an online image-novella.
 
(...) I must say your story sucks. I don't care what most poeple say. It sucks. Yes , i'm entitled to my own opinion. And it is that your story sucks ass. Your'e probably all thinking "oh my gawd noone on Lugnet has said this to anyone before" but (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, lugnet.castle.ninja)

  Re: The Wanderer, an online image-novella.
 
Bryan, First of all, I agree with everything that Nathan said about common courtesy, and I was shocked when I read what you had written about Kevin's comic. Yes comic, not an epic novel which you seem to have been expecting. I really enjoyed the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, lugnet.castle.ninja)

  Courtesy. ( WAS Re: The Wanderer, an online image-novella.)
 
This really applies to everyone.... What *good* does it do anybody to even post a negative reply to anything? Sure, you're entitled to your opinion, but sometimes your opinion is better kept quiet.

  Re: The Wanderer, an online image-novella.
 
Why do you need to attack the individual? You said, “you suck” about the creator of the Wanderer! Can’t you differentiate between a ‘story’ and a ‘person’? Perhaps the story did suck, but that doesn’t entitle you to insult the creator. P.S. why (...) (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, lugnet.castle.ninja)
