@The Recherche

How does someone managed to keep his posts high-quality and respectful? Because I've been having a hard time writing posts without them turning into disrespectful rants. I could really use the advice if I want to become a better person posting in online forums.

Honestly? The best advice I can give is to be patient; don't rush your responses. If I am ever in the Debate Pit, for example, it usually takes me about 40 minutes or so to articulate a worthwhile response to the question proposed. Patience is the key, really.

That's the best advice I can give, though; it might be worth asking other folks for their input on the situation as well.

It will sound silly, but I've been kinda curious.
If you could go to Equestria* at the cost of permanently leaving everything you have behind, would you do it? Whichever you choose, please explain your choice. If you don't mind.

* - you'd be transformed into a pony with pretty randomly picked look, race and cutie mark based on your current look/personality/desires/lifestyle/etc..

Now not so silly questions:

- Do you like potatoes in general?

- Do you prefer dogs or cats?

- Are you FABULOUS! ? (interpret that as you wish )

Honestly? Nah; running away from your problems is just cowardly, and to be honest.... I like Earth, and I don't want to leave it behind.

Standard ones? Nah... sweet potatoes, though? Yes.

Cats, cats, cats. They're more self-sufficient, they're not as needy, they're not as messy.... you get the idea.

Oh, and they purr.

Nobody said it is to run away from problems , unless your current situation points these as a primary thing to consider.

Oh, no worries; I'm doing alright! I was just saying that as a general statement, though; I don't really like the idea of going to a different reality, just because I don't like this on enough. It almost feels... cowardly, if you know what I mean.

That's good then.  Oh, now with this wording I get what you mean. Everything is clear! Fair enough!

What are some of your favorite colors?

What are some of your favorite color combinations (besides probably purple and white )?

Do you think having an OC is a very important thing when you are in the MLP fandom?

[The Recherche 29,969]

Either Purple, Green, Black, or White.

White and Purple.

Spoiler

Black and Gold is very cool, though.

Honestly? Nah; I haven't created one myself yet, honestly, so I would be a hypocrite if I said otherwise. OCs are fine, but I would rather create entirely new characters for their own individual stories.

So that would mean you like Songbird Serenade's color scheme then?

I agree. Describing myself is quite hard actually.

 

Do you write very often, besides essays?

Would you consider yourself fashionable?

The color scheme is pretty nice, but her design leaves something to be desired, frankly.

2 hours ago, Soren Peregrine said:

Not at all, actually. I enjoy coming up with characters an backstories for them... but for some reason, i can never get the motivation to write a story for them.

2 hours ago, Soren Peregrine said:

Not quite yet... but I plan on making an effort to improve my appearance soon.

Then what would you say your current appearance is? If I am not mistaken, I believe you said you have long hair. Don't change that!

Yeah, I think I'm going to go to a hair stylist's corner and see what they can offer! Granted, it might be kind difficult considering that I'm a guy, but I'm sure I can work something out!

Anyways, I would describe my current appearance as.. average. i wear t-shits and shorts mostly, alongside heel-length socks an slip-on shoes. Needless to say, I could use an upgrade in terms of fashion... but I think I can work something out in the future.

I guess this may be a stupid question, but why not. Why are you indecisive on an avatar?

[The Recherche 29,969]

Because things fall out of fashion all of the time~!

Jokes aside, I'm not sure. I suppose I just grow tired of certain ones, and eventually replace them with images that I really like.

Don't worry, though; I have every intention of sticking to this one for the time being.

Who is your second favourite pony? Pretty sure you mentioned it somewhere, but I forgot

[Soren Peregrine 4,606]

Some questions about your night life...

How much sleep do you get?

Do you usually feel tired or refreshed when you wake up in the morning?

Are you a morning person?

Do you know what sleep paralysis is? If so, have you ever experienced it?

Do your dreams seem to be more about real life, if a bit weird, or extremely strange and fantastical?

 

[The Recherche 29,969]

2 hours ago, Soren Peregrine said:

A fair amount; I would say about 9 hours a day.

Tired, actually. I don't suppose that's a very good thing, though...

2 hours ago, Soren Peregrine said:

I actually don't mind morning too much... the only thing I have against them is, well... I have to wake up at that time.

2 hours ago, Soren Peregrine said:

Do you know what sleep paralysis is? If so, have you ever experienced it?

Yes, and I vividly remember my first experience with it. I was just in bed but then i suddenly couldn't move, and I heard an extremely loud ringing noise for some reason...

2 hours ago, Soren Peregrine said:

My dreams are comparable to acid trips, really. My entire family has the most random dreams you could ask for, really.

No joke; my mother once dreamed that she killed someone with a toothbrush...

So you've never had any scary images or hallucinations during it? If it has happened more than once, was it not as scary the more it happened?

[The Recherche 29,969]

I have not experienced that, no; I am just left paralyzed, and I usually end up hearing an extremely loud noise alongside it...

Oh, and the terror pretty much disappeared after the firs time; the first time was easily the most terrifying, due to me not knowing what was happening. The rest of the incidents are inconveniences at worst, though.

Interesting. It sounds like you had it easy. A lot of people see very scary images.

Do you drink coffee or tea in the mornings?

Nah; I try to avoid caffeine as much as possible, truthfully speaking. While I know that it won't kill you... I don't want to develop a dependence on it, you know?

Have you ever considered leaving here? (I HOPE not)

Do you like Apple Pie?

Do you have a Phobia?

As of now, about 2 days; there was one moment where I was locked out of my account, but the issue was resolved in due time.

2 hours ago, Totally Nature Tune said:

I did, actually. I believe it was back in April,where my attention-hog phase was at its worst... and I considered leaving the Forums for good. That ultimately didn't come to pass, but it was definitely a consideration.

2 hours ago, Totally Nature Tune said:

Not very much, to be quite honest. I'm not very keen on sweet foods, so that's the most likely reason.

2 hours ago, Totally Nature Tune said:

Potentially; ever since iI was a child, I have hated severe thunderstorms and the like... so I may or may not have Astraphobia.Lilapsophobia at this point.

Not in favor of Manehattan, no. I appreciate the offer regardless.

[Rikifive 24,208]

I don't recall that being mentioned anywhere, what happened that made you step out of the staff position? 

I assume you are just busy? I won't hide it's still kind of sad to see you no longer be there... I hope everything is alright.
