Ever the fawn magnet.

A shorter batch of screenshots this time since after this, I started playing in a bigger window.

I just have to rant a bit about this thing. We all need to complain sometimes when somebody offends you.

Here's an article that I believe many TEF fans have already read, if not, maybe you should.

http://www.somethingawful.com/d/mmo-roulette/endlessforest.php

It made me very upset to read this, since I have been roaming the Endless Forest with my character Shulgalaj for several years and still love the game. The article is not only badly written, but also highly offending to those who play regularly.

The article seems to not have understood that all games do not need to be conventionally structured with rules, verbal/literal communication, a goal and obstacles.

The writer of the article diagnoses us all as crazy for playing this game with the argument that "there is absolutely nothing to do in this game". I do not see how that would make a point, since I, for example, play this game just to wander around in a peaceful virtual reality and simply enjoy myself together with others. Sure, the communication skills of your character are not far too high, but the simple body language of the deer is easy to understand. And there is really no need for long, complicated discussions in this game; if you want that, just don't play it.

I think the writer is the kind of person who has never been close to nature and therefor does not understand to enjoy it; and then even less so, a virtual nature. Probably it is a person who does not understand how healthy it can be to just sit down and enjoy doing nothing at all for a little while so all the knots of stress in your body starts to loosen up. I do not think you must be crazy to enjoy that. I do not, either, believe in your theory that this game is nonsense only because "there is nothing to do". I think this game might be good for you; you might learn how to appreciate the smaller things in life.

The author clearly does not understand the other point of it all; this is fun.

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE.

Considering how long it's been since I've done one of these, this is a fitting way to start. 8|

6/21: I really need to get relations on here. Lol

Please do not track :)

Well... I'll start this off by saying: It's 3:27 AM and I'm pretty mixed up.

I'm almost regretting the deactivation of my deviantArt and tumblr accounts, but I remember I never had any fans on either of the two, so making new ones would probably make me feel even worse-- starting from scratch again. I want to draw, but each time I look at the pencil and paper I remember how bad I am at it....

I am lonely. I'm pretty certain now that the remainder of my Summer vacation will be spent on my own, which... doesn't bother me TOO bad. I'll be doing one or two things/activities which are too vomit-worthy and boring to mention, so I guess I'll get to something more... eh~ interesting:

I am gay. I am quite gay, actually. And it sucks to, 1. have to keep 80% of my important thoughts and feelings from all humans in my physical world, and 2. be THAT much farther from the hope of finding love/company. Things are just... confusing right now. But I do know that I want to wait a year or two before mentioning anything to my family. I am now fourteen (I think).

You know what I hate? Grammatical errors. Like... ERROR'S. Were people just fuck there English up the ass. I just hate it. It proves that the human race has become, on average, stupid enough to see something done right every time one opens a book and still not applied the information to their horridly-composed minds. It's so annoying and embarrassing. I sometimes wish I wasn't a member of the human species because of this kind of shit. (ALL RIGHT YOU DUMBFUCKS, THE GRAMMATICAL ERRORS IN THIS ONE MOTHERFUCKING PARAGRAPH WERE ADDED ON PURPOSE AS EXAMPLES. I EVEN USED THE CORRECT WORDS AND CIRCUMSTANCES TO EACH EXAMPLE IN THIS FUCKING WRITING IF NOT THE SAME GODDAMN PARAGRAPH. YOU'RE NOT SMART SHIT FOR PICKING THAT OUT BECAUSE YOU OBVIOUSLY CANNOT PICK OUT THE OTHER HINTS SHAT ALL AROUND THE INTENTIONAL FLAWS. "Like... ERROR'S. Were people just fuck there English up the ass." THAT WAS PRETTY MUCH THE ONLY GODDAMN SENTENCE WITH THE ERRORS I PUT IN, YOU CUNTS.)

Yeah, I think my brain is trying to fall asleep. I should probably go.

It's 4:00 AM, and I am still pretty mixed up.

.

I was wondering...

I've been in the forest for some time, and I've often noticed how some players' calls, bleats or "sounds" are different to the ear. Some sound like moose, others normal deer, and there may be a few others that aren't like my call or the typical (and quite sadly annoying) fawn call.

I was thinking the sound of your deer depended on its mask/pelt. But what is it exactly that changes a deer's call?

Thanks~
