Title: How to Get Drunk Anywhere
Post by: Red on 16 Aug 2012, 22:44
Or, Red's Personal Travel Log.

Some public, some private. All enjoyable (maybe?)!

Thoughts? Suggestions? Etc.? \^o^/

\o/ more IC blogs.

Just as a tip, which you are quite welcome to ignore if it goes against what you want to do with the blog, is that I would advise that you avoid putting to much detail of any RP arc you happen to be involved in, in your blog. This is mostly because people sometimes can have some 'confusion' over whether something is meant to be IC knowledge or not, and this can lead to accusations of godmodding and the like.

However, you seem to be doing absolutely fine so far, and the public/private tags are a good way to avoid the above paragraph.

I'm enjoying it so far :)

After kind of perusing through what I've got so far, I did notice that the tags are kind of... tiny, with that particular template. I'll try out a more obvious "warning system" with post titles and see how that works. Thanks for the tip! :D

Also, the very first PRIVATE LOG is up :x Scandalous! >.>

Rule of the road is : do not post what you are not willing to have used against you, 'polite' OOC/IC tags or not. It's not pretty but it can help minimize damage a lot.

Edit : This is a very basic summary of my own view points in regards to character blogs, if you want an expanded explaination.

:P Just thought I'd chip in, because one of the most irritating things about having a blog is that certain kinds of people seem incapable of not using stuff you've written as publicly available IC knowledge. I cannot express how infuriating this can be  :s

Fortunately, putting Not Public Info in large letters usually gets the message across.

Fascinating read, really!

I like how the journals reflect the way Red carries herself and her particular form of dialog seems to match her internal dialog as well. I'm also a huge fan of the descriptive nature and the attention to detail apart from just the conversations had, it gives it a very real feeling and I'm bookmarking it.

Shit, don't I know it >.< I've been internet arr-peeing for roughly 10 years, and I learned that the hard way pretty early on XD

Ghost Hunter is a tease.

I try to keep my tendency to paragraph post to a minimum unless it's invited.

Also I may be particularly fond of forum fishing.

Sadly, Red did not get drunk that evening. She could have used it, too.

I am all about reading an Amarr space travelogue. Super readable and engaging format, too. :D
