Nah man, you're critique is all negative. 4/10 sucks pretty bad would not listen to.
it's all negative because i didnt like anything about it. i tried to like it, i really did. but i couldnt.

Doesn't really matter that you didn't like it, opinions, whatever. Rolling back before the argument takes over the thread, be negative, and be critical but focus more on how he could improve it instead of "It sucks now here's a joke rating to show how serious I take it."

Setro, would It be okay for me to show you how I would at least write the first paragraph? Just as something to kinda work off of.

EDIT:Also, why did you come to the Blockland Forums to get help/feedback about your book? Why not choose another website or forum?

Because some of us are writers. The rest of them can at least point out a few obvious things.
But he'd probably get better help from some writing site, you're right.

Everyone is just saying how stuffty this is. Why can't you guys tell him how to make it better? Oh that's right none of you are writers anyway.
Ugh... you're one of THOSE guys...

So what if I'm not a writer? I can tell a good story from a bad story, and I'm not some successful writer. Same thing with songs, games, etc.

This story has horrible pacing, wooden characters, and just HORRIBLE formatting. Not to mention, he wants to SELL THIS! He should at least start with some short stories that he can share around the internet. He can't expect immediate fame. Are you happy, now?

We're a close little community. With a public garden.
And a library.

a library filled with books on mlp, furries, video games and containing the grand book of nobs

Then what should I use? Pictures?
hello let me introduce you to your new friend called the quote tags
a handy way to format posts like this without stretching people's pages horribly and also shrinks the text size to a more compact format automatically
i would recommend you use it for stuff like this

I've lost a lot of inspiration, like I expected...

Stubborn?

I can't tell whether you're genuinely this much of a cunt or not

this'd fit more appropriately IMO
