《Trace: A LitRPG Apocalypse》Commenting Rules and Etiquette
Advertisement
Why hasn't there been a chapter in the past week? Because some of you guys are savages who complain about every single chapter and every single minute thing. My mental health is in the gutter and my productivity is dead from reading all the constant complaints.Just like in Salvos, I'm adding commenting rules for the sake of my productivity in producing chapters:
1. Be polite - If you can't criticize a story without being polite, you're banned from commenting.
2. Don't demean the author - If you can't criticize a story without negatively alluding to the author, you're banned from commenting.
3. Majority of your comments should not be criticism - If more than 50% of your comments are criticisms of the story, you're banned from commenting.
4. Don't make demands of the author - If you dislike one aspect of the story, you can say you dislike it, but don't ask me to change anything. You can point out that it feels out of character, you can say it's a plot hole, but do not tell me how to write my story. If you're going to backseat write, you're banned from commenting.
That's it. Hopefully I'll start posting chapters on time next week. But my productivity is dead thanks to all the incessant negativity I've gotten here and in Salvos.

What Was Lost Outside Time
What happens to a mind, subjected to an infinite span of time? What remains, when it is taken out again? This is the story of an individual reborn after such time has passed that nothing remains of what it was; an individual who must learn once again what it is to be, beginning with awareness of the idea of awareness, and growing from there; from awareness of self, to awareness of others, to awareness of society, and on. This is the story of a mind; growing, learning, adapting, and becoming more. -- Currently the first three chapters are - well, kind of experimental. I both like and hate these; they were a pain to write, and I'm told by at least one person that they're painful to get through, but I think something like them is necessary to set one of the basic ideas about the way the story is written. It gets slightly more normal after that, the first arc of the story is rather "battle school", and I think I may need to go back and edit it - the characterization didn't end up working out as well as I had originally hoped, unfortunately, and ended up rather weak to my eye. I may go back and add a sub-plot or two, depending on how well I can handle the intended perspective shift of the second arc. -- Currently on hiatus, in case that wasn't obvious. I'm debating between rewriting large portions of what I've already written, and just finishing out the story, but either way, I don't actually have a clear idea of what I want to do right now. If I'm still feeling the same way in a few months I'll put a chapter up explaining where the story was going, maybe, so the people who have enjoyed it can know where the story was intended to go, and close this out.
