heart of dust.:
I believe this thread should be revived.

- Frerard
- Pregnancy
- main character, preferably a female, has bad past shrouded in mystery, goes to -insertbandnamehere- concert and instantly falls in love with a member and they get married and make babies, walking a road of troubles, deaths, pregnancy, but eventually end up happy.
- Pregnancy
- using ' instead of " in dialogue.
- Pregnancy
- The adolescent of the story has similar past to the example stated previously, but this time the band finds her and they become best friends forever, pursuing one another and drawing a love triangle.
- Pregnancy
- Death
- Pregnancy.

...did I forget pregnancy?


And of course that's interchangeable with (inter name of HardxCore, "Emo," Metal-core-band-of- the-moment"Wink

Most of them aren't in the business to write something meaning full or deep, they just want to be like everyone else and write what's cool. Or they don't have a strong enough right brain connection to do anything creative.
It's really sad when you can go though 200 stories and they're really just one story with different titles Sad

Now I've got nothing against skittles, I like them as much as any candy but it annoys me that people who probably didn't think of skittles as their favorite candy before Frank mentioned them now love everything about skittles. This girl on Mibba said she named her dog Skittle for fucks sake!

Skittles are not that amazing folks, hate to break it to you.

Round of applause, folks. Smiley
Has anyone else noticed that on Mibba there's all these stories with character descriptions in the summary. I mean come on, shouldn't you describe them in the story?
No brilliant story writer myself, but that's what I think.

Ahh yeah. They've got pictures of each and every character and then they tell all about the character underneath for like 10 people. That's annoying as hell.

I use pregnancy a lot, but my reasoning for my stories is so I can create new characters, build on them as they grow, and then have new stories to tell from their perspective by way of sequels. It's like new stories, but tied to the ones people know and read...

Kinda like soap operas for the Internet. Very Happy

Not just MCR stories. There was a Green Day fic where the author put up pictures of each member, described his family, his role in the band, his favorite breakfast, his first grade teacher's ex wife's cousins' maiden name...Cheese

And some idiots take scene-people pictures and say "This is my character. Her name is Lightning Sage Raven. And this is her pretty friend, Hope Snow Faithsicle" or something. "And this is her boyfriend, Chemistry Biology Smith"

The stories usually have silly titles or song-lyric titles. And its somewhere between sad and hilarious. I feel sorry for the future children of these people...

Another trend: hideous layouts with neon pink background and neon green text. It makes you want to stab your eyes out.

I've noticed the layouts that blind you. It puts me off reading, but I never do tell them how horrible it is. It's their fault. [:

Oh and I've saw the picture thing, which annoys me.

The whole point of a story is to build a character and story -- you don't say it in a summary and describe every living aspect of your character there. What's the fun in reading then?

Still say there's too much Frefard going around. Oh and incest/rape. I mean wtf. It's as bad as pedophilia. Jesus, people, get a grip on life. Molly
