blows dust off this RP discussion thread

O-o-ooh, bo-o-oy. It's been quite awhile, has it? Mo-o-o hopes everyone here that has participated in this RP has been doing well over the past few years.

Basically, I wouldn't mind jumping in and getting the gears of this RP spinning again. Though if I have to guess, it's probably not gonna happen due to many members here who are no longer active on the forum (guilty as charged for me until last month in April) and/or too busy with life matters. And if this RP stays dead for the foreseeable future, I totally understand and can accept that. (Though, at least it's probably never to-o-o late to revive it again!)

I can do my next post even without Volant, correct?

I'm still wondering about this, by the way. And ironically, I would've been still at least semi-active on the forum during the past few years if this RP kept going.

But regardless, I'm quite grateful and happy to have RPed along side y'all, bonding that way and growing more experienced and more used to being apart of a literate RP, contributing my part and getting to know the characters that I RP better.

And as a short, non-shameful plug for @TenderlyLiz, hopefully her RP Land Before Time: Exodus springs off the ground sometime in the future. It is planned to be a literate, multi-paragraph type of RP just like this one is, and the premise is quite simple, but interesting.

Hello everyone, I've come to you in my hour of need. My proposition is simple...

Zombie Apocalypse Land Before Time...Let me explain.

Mo-o-o-o haven't watched any of the LBT movies or the TV series for quite awhile at this point. However, protege... this fishy will always consider rewatching all that the LBT franchise has to offer again, and again, and again. What's not to love our about diverse, lovable, awesome dino gang?


And besides... I'll eventually re-watch the LBT movies and TV series to do a whole review on them (and for many of them, a re-review since I've already rated some of them in the past, though without any thorough explanation or analysis though...)

They can't all be that good! In fact, as my movie standards keep getting higher, it seems my list of rejects keeps growing. Today, I realized there are 3 out of 14 LBT movies that I can't imagine myself watching ever again...and I even found myself questioning some additional ones!

Your movie standards may keep getting higher, but it's already a pretty low bar to raise in the first place. After all, liking any of the sequels of LBT is already a sign of low movie standards.

And we all kno-o-ow the mo-o-ovie with Mo-o-o-o is the one sequel everyone should be rewatching anyway, hehe-hahaha!

==============

I'll take a guess at what movies you'll never want to watch again, Rainbow. Is it The Great Longneck Migration, Invasion of The Tinysauruses, and The Wisdom of Friends?
(The latter guess is the safest guess obviously, but maybe I'll be surprised later on! )

@GreyLizard226: Erm, I also agree with @aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) , which means I wouldn't have much to add to the discussion of this thread. Just because nobody is responding doesn't mean people are ignoring you, could just mean they don't really have anything to add to this thread. And with the type of topic that you posted, I'm not surprised that only one person had really anything to say about it after he basically said what everyone else was probably thinking.

As for my own thoughts, while it is possible that the Disney movie that you pointed out inspired an LBT plotline... I mean, there are just so many movies out there that have the same plot lines as other movies in the past, I am talking about this in general. I can't name specifics off top of my head really, but there's just bound to be many cliche/reused/older plot lines that many movies will and have already used by their movie predecessors. I'd say its rare for a movie to be completely original/new these days, and that the strengths/merits of a movie will come from how they execute an already established trope instead. Execution being key is what I'm saying here.

I agree with Aabicus. Please also stop spamming your own topic in this way, @GreyLizard226 .

I’m not trying to spam…I’m just trying to help the thread get more attention. It’s frustrating because I feel I made this topic for nothing since almost no one is responding.   

Don't take this personally, but there are many topics posted by other people that hadn't really gotten attention either, just like some of yours. It normally isn't anything personal, just either a lack of anything to say or perhaps a lack of interest. Not every topic will hit, and that is okay. Embrace the topics that do have plenty of nuance and discussion towards it, and let go/not worry too much about the topics that didn't get any replies. I should know, since I've had some dud topics in the past I'm pretty sure.

And also, it's always okay to bump a thread every once in awhile if you want people to notice your older topic and hopefully have people respond to it. Put "bump" or something like that. And personally, while I do see why Mumbling hurtled the accusation of spam towards you, since I have noticed some of your past topics being bumped in the fashion of "Why isn't this getting enough replies" and whatnot (just a bit more subtle way of bumping a thread), though I don't think your spamming since its not like you've done this sort of thing, either not often enough, or not too much within a small span of time, or in the grand scheme of things, not enough to cause a nuisance in the community space in my opinion.
