Things straight? Things straight, I didn't go figure.

This is my deer. It is me, but it's not me. It has another name, but yet it is me. I speak of the deer, of myself, in third person like in the old times.

What is the idea of the "Deer name" for players who'd fit to be saying the italised quote. That means, for people who roleplay as themselves.

Hey look, I act like a noob who posts a question post of only few phrases without a picture! And talk about the disunity of this post. Golly me.


PS. What happened to GlobalBeauty? I haven't seen their significant pictogram on the community for a long while.

Good to see, good to hear. I

Good to see, good to hear. I did wonder what was the name you changed into.

Your nice wording reminded me of the unnaturality of text-based online communication, which I had forgotten. I should feel ashamed of writing this post. I will change my manner of speaking.

For me, the "deer name" is a

For me, the "deer name" is a name or names that I want to call myself. I hate my birth name for multiple reasons, so I try to find a name that I feel fits me more and that I can make mine. Of course, my own indecisiveness means I often go by multiple names. Sometimes, a name will stick for a long time before I feel it doesn't suit me anymore. I suppose I'm more fluid than I thought I was.

And you don't have to change your writing style at all. It's nice to speak "elegantly" once in a while.

Your writing style isn't a

Your writing style isn't a problem at all. I was just typing quickly last night since I found your post while I was at work. Smiling By the way, did you have a different name in the past as well? It has been over a year since this pictogram was called GlobalBeauty, if I remember right.

My writing style is a problem

My writing style is a problem now, as it has started to irritate me. The blog post, I mean. I'm not even sure if I was the one who wrote it.
But I will entrust my whole etiquette unto you both. I shall word myself in any way I see fit.

"elegantly"? Elegantly. I hope you are judging by something else which I had written, because I see nothing elegant in this post except the italicised part, which might be somewhat.
Thank you for your answer about the deer name, lunaa. I'll take it under consideration.

No, this same body has always been under the name Fukurou. It has been quite a while ago yes, but so have I been quite a while around. I only never contacted you in any way, as I almost never contacted anyone here. I've lurked to learn — a long time, but still I haven't got a grasp of the sociology of this community.


No more grain of salt.

Ha. Came back here to finally

Ha. Came back here to finally reply to Apo, only to find the section removed. You sneaky thing, you.

@Fukurou, in that context, I understand that. But it doesn't bother me any.

I do find all your text elegant, in a way, really. I just appreciate the world of the internet for what it allows; the ability to speak words that would sound ridiculous in casual conversation in a real life meeting, but feel completely natural here. And you're welcome.
