Reading long threads...
« on: July 22, 2009, 06:34:11 pm »

How many here have tried to read the really long threads?

I recently started Nist Akath, and read the full original FotF and most recent one before posting in either.


Do you?

If it's interesting.

I set the post-per-page count to maximum, so it's easier.

FotF's less intimidating when it's only 64 pages  :D

The problem with Nist Akath is that the majority of posts are generally off topic made by other people. Makes it hard to concentrate.

If Nist Akath didn't have the extra comments, the beginning would be too boring for most people to read it, and those that did would die because once it picks up later, the concentrated awesome would make livers and kidneys explode.

I've read part of Nist Akath.
But for reading longs threads, I just read em'. Though I tend to "read" fast and miss stuff if there are no pictures. :(

'W' is the longest letter I can think of, really.

I also highly recommend the "repagnination" extension for Firefox.

Theres no f-ing way I'd ever read all of Nist Akath. If it was reformatted into an actual story instead of being a forum thread, then MAYBE....but doubtful.

"Only" on page 20 of 71 after a bit more than a day.

I'll get it done eventually!
(I did the same for SS13, though it was much shorter with shorter posts)
