well, that's really sweet. :blush: though KAWEOTH was, one, a very simple idea and, two, not only my idea. :P I know! KAWEOTH and you are really what inspired me to begin creating OCs... I remember I use to be so afraid of the very idea... or I use to think that it was sorta pointless in the first place since why would you want to play some stupid OC when you could play a awesome canon character. :P haha. Truth.

I'm just really surprised how well it took off... especially in the beginning we sounded so newbish and I've noticed how much our writing skills have blossomed since then... it's quite amazing actually xD I remember when I didn't even know what OC or RPG meant... gosh, that was forever ago... but I think OC's are fun because you can shape them and add a bit of you to the story - it makes it a lot more personal feeling. And plus it's great fun :pirate:

True. Personally, I hate to even look back at the first posts... *shudders* I'm glad we've improved. It wasn't quite so long ago for me... especially figuring out what "OC" meant. :yes: yup, that's exactly what OCs are! They're YOURS. Not some screenwriter's invention or an actor's or whatever... they're all yours. It's sorta... special feeling. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's like having your first child or something but it's close, I think. :P

They were pretty bad... but it just shows how far we've come... much, much better now. :yes: I hate to even think how my very first RP post sounded! Ha ha! :hide: I feel really bad to those more experienced RPers who put up with me when I first started! :blush: My first ever roleplay was pirates... Called "She's A Pirate" lol how cheesy is that?! And Vari kissed Jack - very very Mary-Sueish! I've still got the RP bookmarked so I can go back and laugh at it. :lol:

Yeah, they are like children in a way, since you put part of you into them and you take good care of them. :yes:

I suppose. At least it's a noticeable improvement. lol I think you sent me your very first RP, right? Or at least your very first one with Vari... hm. I could've sworn that you sent it to me a while ago. Yup, that was it! She's A Pirate! That's the one you sent me. :teehee: I still feel bad about people who RP with me... :erm: and my OCs still need work. *le nod* Baby steps... lol

aye, that's what I think too. And sometimes they're fun 'cause you can vent through them. Like, you can express yourself in a different way then you do in RL through them... gah, it's kinda hard to explain. :confused: basically, you can do things you could never do in RL. Like with Joe... it gives me an opportunity to be a selfish, proud... well, jerk. Something that I would, of course, try to avoid at all costs in RL. :P

Oh jeez, you read through that?! Ha ha! I feel terrible for you dear! :lol: Even the initials spell out SAP. :roflmao:

Aye, I've got ye! I would probably never attempt half of the stuff Vari does :P Ha ha, if you ever started acting jerk-ish, I could say you're pulling a Kerringston! :roll: But Joe's just the sort of bad-boy that you fall in love with and you never know what he'll pull out of his hat next. ;-)

No, I didn't read through ALL of it but I did browse. :teehee: oh gosh. hehe

ok, good... for a second I was thinking that all I'd do is utterly confuse you. :P that would be epic... hmm, perhaps I should act like a jerk just so you could say that to me... :teehee: nah. hmmm, maybe so. Though Joe has sort of a... stupid side. :lol: I don't really know how to describe it. An utterly ignorant and... yeah, you know... side to him. So, I mean, I guess I never thought of him as exactly the "bad-boy" type... not in the typical sense of the word at least. He's got an edge and he's not afraid to be selfish and do whatever it takes to further himself ect but he's also... slightly naive while at it, you know? Another confusing thing to explain! lol

Hm, I meant more bad-boy in the sense that he's always after women, he's got a sort of dark side to him and the like... maybe that's not the right term to describe him, but I honestly don't know that my brain is working anymore :frust:

wow... Hehe. I am flattered, you guys. :teehee: I don’t mind at all… the idea’s not copyrighted or anything. Lol (especially since I sorta stole your guys' banner size idea... :teehee:)

On mine we’ve got, from left to right, Carmon, Joe, Lucette, Cole, Lotty and Emma. :D

^Speaking of your sig, you need a space between KAWEOTH and the OC icon banner thing... it's been bugging me that the 'N' was separate from the rest of it.. :lol:
