OOC: Some Things
So, I've been a part of the TBDF for a long time. Those who paid enough attention watched me grow from being a highly obnoxious, flighty, sunshine-y "obviously sheltered" fifteen year old to a slightly-less-obnoxious, "tries really hard not to make too many mistakes" 21 year old. I think I've improved! MAYBE.
I was admittedly a lot more comfortable with being outspoken and less intimidated by people when I was fifteen than I am now. I don't know why, but I'd say some memorable experiences both in-game and in real life have to do with it, in addition to sticking up for people who didn't always get along with the majority of the community (who, ironically enough, really didn't deserve sticking up for in the end).
As a result, I have kind of grown to be a bit quieter and definitely less inclined to reach out to some folks. I don't necessarily blame anyone but myself for it, but it can be pretty frustrating at the same time. It's something I'm trying to work on. I've made a ton of RP mistakes during my time here, and while I can name several folks who have been tirelessly patient with me, I do get the feeling that others find me of little consequence, or too dramatic and silly to bother investing any real time in my characters.
TL;DR - Sorry for the mistakes! Sorry for the shyness! I'm working on it!
If you have anything to say, I welcome it.
