When i moved into races, my maps seemed to automatically get more attention. With a lot of guidence from people like calamity7 and ska I slowly improved - and as i did, my races got more and more attention until today. My action maps are still mostly unnoticed :/

i'm a natural for making complex things seem easy and also easly taking ideas and changing them so they arent copyrighting and making something new (my first was a dda and right after that an n-art), thats why none of my maps are simple

but my idols were pretty much kn03 and .....aw shit i cant remember the other art guy, its right at the tip of my tounge, damn it

Never actually spammed objects, except for 2 maps.
I was submitting maps often.
People loved me.

When i started? I was dejablue4. I made too many maps in too little a span of time. I was obsessed with contributing to the community. Yeah, obsessed. People like xdude, bluenin, and even McP helped me out with my early maps. I made friends with brttrx, demonz, shortshift, and cooby not long after. I multi-accounted. I got suspended. I asked for sweep to disable the deja account, and to be allowed back as midnightgetaway. Then life away from numa got a bit hectic. I took a break. Now I'm semi making maps again. Woo, my time here in a nutshell.

It may appear that I do not know how to write but I do. I'm laid back in forums, I don't proof read most of my posts so they will obviously have errors. When the time comes where I need to check what I write like a college or highschool exam, I will proof read my statements like I'm doing now. Although I may appear to be illiterate, I do have a clue what I'm doing. (Yes the conclusion is redundant but to finish off a persuasive essay, no matter the length, you need to restate the thesis to review what you have written.)

That is how every one of your posts should be. Like gloomp said, use proper spelling and grammar and you'll be taken seriously.

After that post, I noticed that I'm writing like I do in school now for all my new posts so I guess I should thank Gloomp for this. Laugh out loud (I guess that's being too literal lol =P)

Hey! You're welcome! I'm always happy to see my opinion of someone change for the better. See, now I think you're a cool guy.

By the way, I find typing out varying amounts laughter a much better way of conveying how funny I find something. It's quick, looks good, and is expressive! It's a win-win-win!

You really should type correctly, if it annoys you or if it doesn't. When I, or someone else, reads a post like the ones you wrote, you're automatically not taken seriously.

Trust me.

EDIT: Read the posts in between these two.

I'm an old user, but when you take a two year break from the community, you lose a lot of those skills. I'm getting back to the top but I still have to work out the kinks.

I am expressing my dislike of this topic. Forget grammar; something that will make me (and everyone else) "respect" you more is a lack of boring, badly-thought-out threads.

Note my use of beautiful grammarz.

I highly doubt that.
