Hello everyone!  As creative people and lovers of writing, we have the urge to create beautiful and unique posts. However, sometimes we lack the tools and the knowledge to do so. Thus, so many of us take to overdone cliches, terrible examples, and wolfspeak. But never fear! For today I am here to give you a whole arsenal of affective tools that are guaranteed to make you not only a better writer, but a beautiful one.

*Disclaimer* I hope you guys realize that I am not trying to bash wolfspeak here. You can roleplay however you want. This is just a tutorial for people who want to write without using wolfspeak because they may feel that it is overdone and/or cliche. Even if you do use wolfspeak, I encourage you to look at this. You may just get some good ideas while furthering your knowledge of the English language. :)

This tutorial aims to provide a unique perspective on roleplaying and writing in general. Though some of the topics covered here can seem a bit advanced, I've hopefully reduced them down enough to where even newbies can understand. If you correctly apply any one of these suggestions to your writing, I can guarantee that you will see a difference. Though it maybe slow and hard at first, with practice, these methods will become almost second-hand to you. :)

This tutorial will consist of three things to enrich your writing and three things to avoid in your writing. As similes and metaphors are similar, they will be explained together. I will most likely do the same with cliches and repetitiveness.


On today's menu:

Similes
Metaphors
Variation


Things to avoid:

Cliches
Repetitiveness
To-be Verbs


Please note: If you think that grammar and proper spelling are the only things needed to be a good writer, then you are terribly wrong and need to go and read some Mark Twain. If you have read him and still think that grammar and spelling are the only things needed, then I want you to leave and never write again. Thank you.

Feel free to post and questions or comments below.  Ok, here we go. :)

Introduction / Well... This is awkward
« on: July 25, 2014, 01:34:36 am »
Hello! Um... Well, I've been playing FeralHeart for about four years now, and I've realized something... I have never once posted an introduction. Or even really participated in the forums (as can be seen by my newbie status XD) For you see, I am a very private person. I don't like sharing any personal information, or even really interacting with other people without hiding in some sort of character. But today, I want to change that.
And so, here are some badonk-a-donks!


I have two accounts for FeralHeart, Wolfie39047 and FoxiePlushie. When I first join FH, I used Wolfie39047, and it was there that I learned the ropes of FH. I made some friends and fell in love with roleplaying. (Sadly, I had never even heard of roleplaying before joining FeralHeart, but now I think it's pretty freaking awesome!) I eventually developed a fursona, a little fox plushie. Thus, I made my next acount, FoxiePlushie. And now, even after I have out grown my past fursona, I still plan to use this account to post on the forum while I use Wolfie39047 to roleplay. I also have an account for DA, KaariSal63 (please note that it is pretty inactive X3)
Here are some more things:

I love all things science and logical and math and... honestly, I just like learning about everything. I also love to draw and paint, but as I am terrible at drawing with my little waccom tablet, most of my artwork is at home on paper. Maybe one day I'll scan something in and actually fill up my DA. :)

I am also pretty dang awesome at making maps for FeralHeart.thatwasnotatallconceited And I plan to put up some on here eventually :) Right now, I am working on a large syfy map pack, but I do have some random terrain and mask maps that I would like to put up for other people to use too. I also have some ideas for some markings and presets and such~~~

As for roleplaying, I suppose you could put me in the literate category, but as I resent all shiny little labels, I like to roleplay at all sorts of different lengths and with all sorts of people on all sorts of subjects. Though I must say, I do have a bad habit of making overly-long posts, so I've been trying to be courteous to my homies and make shorter ones. (I've got it narrowed down to about 1 to 2 chat box lengths so far XD)

Hrmm... well I'm not sure what else to put, so um... here's a list of things that I like and don't like.



I like dubstep, techno, and pretty much all electronic music
I hate spiders, roaches, and most bugs
I love horror and macabre
Oddly enough, I don't really like creepy pasta
I like to write and am a big fan of syfy and fiction
I dislike most poetry
Video games are pretty dang awesome yo

Anyways, I hope that this was mildly entertaining because now I am going to go and eat some chicken.

Also, I want to say thank you to all the people who help keep FeralHeart alive, both staff members and users. You guys are pretty dang awesome yo.
Thanks for reading

Request/Find Meshes / Moving FH Model Mesh/particle??! O.o
« on: March 15, 2013, 03:11:44 am »
Hello! First off, I hope my subject title wasn't too confusing... But anyways, let me describe what I'm talking about!

The Mesh (Or possibly particle) that I am looking for is very specific, and most likely not around anymore. I have yet to find it anywhere, and I suspect that it was specially made for a certain someone. BUT! If you happen to come across a link... Well, please do share. :3 This particle thing could be called a ghost, but it is most certainly NOT a little white blob over a gravestone. It looks like a FH cat model, complete with markings and a character name! You can even click on it and one of those character description boxes pop up... It also moves in a set path and even stops to sit at specific points in its cycle! It looks so realistic that it actually looks like someone is over there moving around. It's a really amazing mesh/particle, and I have only seen it once. It was in a warrior cat map, and if I am recalling correctly, I think the owner was ZombiehKitteh, but the map maker could have been a different person. I am not sure. Anyways, as I said, the mesh was probably made for specifically that one map and is not open to the public, but if anyone knows anything, please post! ^^ Thanks~

Species / Zombie Species: Need help With Naming it
« on: December 27, 2011, 07:46:02 pm »
WEWT!~ So I joined this zombie rp of Closet's and I got a great idea. I thought it all over last night and its pretty epic. :D Its positiviely disgusting and amazing so... yeah :D But I need help naming it o.o ~My name creativity is currently broken~ Read about it and post what you think :D
How its created: Basically it starts off as a little unborn thingy in the womb. Its momma gets bitten and turns into a zombie. The thingy (I shall call it thingy until I figure out a name XD) sorta evolves into this creature... It then somehow gets out either by burrowing out or someother means.
What it looks like: It is whitish or light pink in color, but because it is often covored in blood, it has a brownish or deep red look to it. (My design is of a dull white thing with deep brownish/red markings) It has no eyes, ears, mouth, tail, or legs. If there is eyes, they are usually big bulging blobs coming out of the sides of its head and are useless. It can have legs, but not fully devoloped ones so it can't run. It can crawl or drag itself around, but no running. Ones without legs wiggle around on the ground like a worm, snake, or inch worm. Either way, it is a slow creature. But it can have short bursts of speed by rearing up and sortof... jumping forward, is the best way to put it, I suppose. Most without legs have sort of ridges on it's sides like a worm, which it uses to grip the ground and move around in. It also has no gender and cannot reproduce in anyway.
How it feeds: It has a hole in the middle of its underbelly with hooks lining the hole, much like a starfish. It latches onto its prey and curls around it for better grip. It's hole then starts spinning around, gradually cutting the victum, it then sucks the blood out of the victum. It usually tries to latch onto a main vein or artery to bleed it's victum to death.  Once the victum is dead, it burries into it and builds a tunnel system. There, it lives and feeds until the body begins to rot.
Its Habbits:It only comes out at night, for the sun dries its skin out. It also must be constantly soaked in blood to prevent itself from drying out. It has a putried smell to it, and it emits gasses that smell much like rotton carrion. It crawls around and does not make noise or converse. Though, occasionaly, if it is in deep pain (such as being caught out in the sun) it might emit a high pitched shriek. It cannot think, nor is it very much aware of its suroundings. Though, it does have a sense of place, much like a worm. (i.e. It can feel pain, know when its hot or cold, is sensitive to light, knows hunger, and so on) It has a keen sense of smell, which it uses to hunt.
There, I'm done. Its sick, I know, but I think it would be awesome to rp. Please help think of a name for it :D

Game Help / New FH Patch--Map Maker Problems
« on: December 14, 2011, 11:17:00 pm »
So I've downloaded the most recent patch and I've noticed something..... Everytime I've tried to open up the map maker, FH crashes. I have an old computer, so that maybe the problem. But it has plenty of memory and runs pretty smooth. I've also seen on General that a few other people have had the same problem. .-. Is this a new glitch or... something else? I'm not sure, but I have a hunch that the same thing has been happening to alot of other people as well.
When it crashes, an ogre error message does NOT come up. It is a message that says "FeralHeart.exe has stopped working" Also, when I click problem details, this comes up:
