I am feeling very frustrated at the moment and just need to rant. Please bear with me for a moment.

- INSERT RANT -

So I'm betaing this fic for someone on FF.net, right? It is sooooo bothersome. The guy doesn't have any sense of grammar or punctuation. It's taking me hours just to beta one chapter! So not cool!!!

Got dragged into beta-ing once a long time ago... by accident mind you! I told the guy to get a beta and he thought he meant I wanted to be his beta... So I got stuck being his beta. Worse... grammar... ever... not to mention I practically re-wrote his story. Never wanted to live that experience again... hence... I don't beta. Period.

You might want to consider relinquishing your position if you find yourself in my place. But if you're stuck with someone who knows how to use punctuation marks, no run on sentences, and how to get from point A to Z through the rest of the alphabet rather than flying to point Z, then you should give it a go.

An accident? Gee, that's not cool! Sucks to be you, Onionhead I'm basically rewriting the whole story as well. Sometimes I think I don't have to make it as good as my expectations, because it's his story and I can just fix up his mistakes, make paragraphs and then hand it back. But noooo, the nice kind me has to go out there and completely flip the thing around.

I'd like to give up as well, like you've suggested. But... this guy really needs help. It's annoying for me to clean up after him, but it'd probably be worse for the readers if they click on a story and discover a block of text. His plot isn't epic phail, not entirely creative, but it's still revisable. It's just that... flat out, he's not a very good writer in terms of technique. Ignoring the fact that he's supposed to be twice my age....

And as for flying to point Z, I don't know how to determine that. Here, I'll show you a bit of what he sent me today. Let's compare; was yours experience worse or have I gotten myself trapped in quicksand?

My nightmare --Click here to view--

Naruto was in awe his families mansion was the grandest building he had ever seen. it made the
uchiha and hyuuga mansions look like small bungalows in comparison. who would have thought
that something so beautiful and majestic was hidden so well in the forests that no-one trained in
within the walls of konoha. he looked over at the kid beside him dressed in anbu style trousers
with a fishnet shirt and a green top similar to a chunnin vest. " ok jiriya how do we start?" he asked.
" call me sasherou for this mission kid we wouldn't want anyone to know why we are really here.
after all danzou has been trying to get into this place for years to get too your fathers jutsu's
for his little root nuisance. ok now then see that seal over there on the door. it's a blood and chakra
seal it will only work if you are a blood relation of the person who put the seal in place. in this case a
blood relation of minoto. so go over there and put some blood on the seal and then channel a small
amount of chakra into the seal to release it." jiriya explained. naruto walked over to the seal and after
putting some chakra into the seal the whole house glowed red for a few seconds and a barrier of some
sort collapsed around the house and the door swung open..... naruto walked through the door into the
main hallway and his breath caught in his throat and his eyes watered ever so slightly as obove the main
staircase he saw a portrait of his mother and father smiling. his throat became full with the wave of greif
that until now he had managed to suppress. quickly turning his face away he looked to the left where he
saw the lounge beautifully decorated in a classy yet homely way. as he walked over he noticed more
pictures of his mother and father in photograph frames he noticed one or two of people he had never met
but they seemed to look a lot like him and some even looked a lot like his mother. they seemed to be
a lot older than the others and some had his parents in with the other people but they were much younger
in the photos. finally he had something of the family he had always yearned for. as he became overcome
with sadness and greif he turned around and walked out of the house to compose himself. jiriya walked
over to him and put his hand on narutos shoulder. "it's ok to feel sad at their loss kid, i still feel it myself
but you can't let that loss rule your life. be strong and protect that which they stood for. remember their
wishes for you and always know they did love you." jiriya consoled. " I i just wish that they were still here
ero senin. i have always missed them even though i didn't know who they were. it is my dream to make
them proud of me and although i never told anyone not even srutobi jiji it was one of the main reasons
that i want to be hokage it's not just about getting respect it was about making them proud." naruto quietly
replied. "they were proud of you naruto of that i am certain. when he found out you were coming into the
world he told me how excited he was that he would have you and how proud you would make him. and
knowing how you have turned out i know that he is definately proudly proclaiming to kami himself
that you are his son and how proud he is of you." jiriya grinned back " now lets go get this stuff sorted
out then we can get back to training." "ALRIGHT LET'S GO ERO i mean sasherou." naruto half shouted
and half winced back.

It came like that, seriously. No paragraphs, nothing. The headache is really matching up to my toothache I've abandoned it for today to work on my own stuff, but you can see why I'm just so frustrated.

Hmph! ... but thanks for letting me rant, Onionhead. It helps.

Damn... and I thought my grammar sucks... Wait.... you're 13 rite? if he's supposed to be twice your age then.... Ok, I pity you, PB. Really, I do.

[krisk]

Great to see that everyone is so enthusiastic about Avatar! It is a very youthful show! YOSH!!

You know which character I like the most? Appa. No joke. He's cute and fluffy and he can fly. What else can you ask for?

Oh, crap. OW. My mouth is killing me. I just had another two teeth pulled out. Hurts. I'm not drooling as much this time, but it hurts more. I want my mummy!!!

OMGGGG APPA IZ AMAZZZZZZING. 8DDDD though he gets a sad episode later on ): just warning ya.

and... yeah i can't say anything else about the flying part. or... wait you've probably passed the part where they meet Teo for the first time right? If so... TEO CAN FLY TOO

:]

D:

and your mouth hurts DX JUST CRY. SERIOUSLY DUDE. CRYING MAKES IT ALWAYS FEEL BETTER D8 especially if you cry to your mom. 8Db

There was this numbing gel thingy and then he stuck the needle in. It wasn't so bad last time because it was my first time and I actually didn't know the needle was in (i just thought he was sticking a rod in my mouth lol). This time I saw it. It was sharp and long and... oh god, it looked bad.

And he cleaned my teeth too. It hurt, cos he only numbed one side of my mouth and not the other. Yeeeah - not very pretty. After that, there were these two coloured thingies that he shoved in my mouth. It tasted like toothpaste.

Laughing gas? 0.0 Do I wanna know?

Book 2? I'm almost there! Betcha I'll figure it out! *races off*

TEETH HURT!!!!!!

!

the mental images that produces DX i remember i watched my sister get HER teeth pulled. homg. it's all coming back to me, like the needle? yeah they stick ALONG your gums, into a teeny vein, and i seriously could NOT believe how big that thing was. Dx

but yeah again. just cry.

and WOT? WOT? WOT? I WANNA PLAY. FIGURE WHAT OUT?

I am feeling very frustrated at the moment and just need to rant. Please bear with me for a moment.

what you're doing?

that's NOT called beta-ing. seriously, this... this is called slave-work. and not meant for a beta. this dude is being lazy. that's it. if you're getting to the point of being FRUSTRATED i really suggest you just send it back and throw in a book of grammar too, or how to press ENTER on a keyboard -manual.

cause seriously?

beta-ing would be checking it for grammar, fixing a few spelling mistakes here and there, making sure the subject and predicate always agree-- what you're doing isn't beta. no joke, if i were you i'd send it back to him and demand he at least TRY to fix the majority.

if not?

I don't exactly remember how it went since I deleted everything to do with it.

Gohan punch Cell in the face mwhahah you can't beat me cell he powered up and kicked cell.

PB. I suggest you find this guy, grab his keyboard and whack his face as hard as you can. Make sure he memorizes the location of the Shift Key, Space Bar, Comma Key, Period Button.

Also tell him to wipe his blood with a thesaurus and a dictionary. Cause this is not beta-ing. You're doing all of the work for him. Stop Beta-ing right now... tell this guy he has no hope to make it as a writer he continues on like this.

It's ridiculous. It's more slave work than a review.... his writing makes my eyes bleed... and I've seen some bad kitten.

Wow, Onionhead had it worse than me!

So how did you get out of it? Care to teach me some tricks? I'm not exactly fond of going up to him and saying, "Yeah, well, your stuff sucks so I quit". I'm really bad at refusing people

I should do exactly that, shouldn't I? Note to self; next time I get asked to beta, CHECK OUT THE FIC FIRST!!!

But hey, thanks for caring, you guys. Makes me feel very loved . I'll probably take up your offers and ditch it. It's eating up my time.

I don't exactly remember how I weaseled my way out... I think the person stopped writing and I took longer to respond cuz life kept me busy. Eventually he gave up writing all together... but I didn't say anything!!! So yea... <.< >.> >.< I'm not to blame

[Cloud]

Definitely ditch it. Tell the person honestly that his story will have no chance if it's written that poorly.

Send it to Smiter or Nate River. They wouldn't even give a glance. And neither should you. DX

Nah, not done with it yet. That mess is gonna take me a while.

THEN SEND IT BACK DDDD:

seriously. it's just a A WALL OF RETARDED TEXT

lol, no worries. Hope ya actually got something out of it.

Man, LC today was wild. Hell... krisk, if you're out there somewhere (and I know you are), I have one thing to say to you:

I shall dig through book 2 and figure it out while General Krisk snuffs it out before me. :thumbs: You won't know what hit her

Those links you got me work magic, krisk. Tank you sooooo much!!!!

THEN SEND IT BACK DDDD:

seriously. it's just a A WALL OF RETARDED TEXT

Wall block. I've separated it at random joints so it doesn't look like some daunting rectangle. Seriously, after this one, I'm getting out of this. Maybe I'll continue betaing, but I am so sussing out the quality of the author first.

Really, krisk, don't change one bit. I like you the way you are. Even if you are an idiot sometimes.

[Onionhead Attacks]

I wonder if Sakura-jie and my favorite character are the same person? She appears in book 2 and she's totally awesome!

[krisk]

Ah, yes! I remember now! He's the guy in the wheelchair who has this funny wingy thing that helps him fly! I remember!! His daddy made stuff for the Fire nation, right? He's a cool dude.

LOL YES HE IS. :teehee:

blargh up to you. if i had seen that wall of text i would've sent it right back with a "UM HOLD THE MF'IN PHONE. ARE YOU SERIOUS? OH HELL NO DUDE. KTHXBAI."

xDDDD

gotta give ya props though, that takes alotta self-control to even WANT to do it. i mean, sure i hate stopping on things i've already started but ON THAT? i would've really started for like 2 seconds and stopped for forever. D:

for the drive x3

:teehee:

Really, krisk, don't change one bit. I like you the way you are. Even if you are an idiot sometimes.

LOL well... thanks i guess :teehee:

I REALLY MEANT 'DRAW' DAMNIT. DRAW! BAAAAW.



;_;



EDIT:
LEE-CHHYAN SHE SAID A DUDE. A DUUUUUDE. DUDE DUDE DUDE. D:

[peanutbutter126]

I wonder if Sakura-jie and my favorite character are the same person? She appears in book 2 and she's totally awesome!

My first guess was Toph cos I've seen her in passing on TV when Avatar was still on. But then I didn't know if she appeared in Book 2, and I was pretty sure Toph was a girl, so that didn't work out. I shall prevail!

LOL well i have two guesses lined up, but i was wondering how far you were.

how far you be, pammyzillas?

I've just started Book 2, but I had loads of interruptions while I was watching the last chapters of Book 1, so I have to go back and watch them again. I forgot to press the pause button!!!

LOL you're welcome, glad they halped 8DDD

you too.

In fact,

blargh up to you. if i had seen that wall of text i would've sent it right back with a "UM HOLD THE MF'IN PHONE. ARE YOU SERIOUS? OH HELL NO DUDE. KTHXBAI."

xDDDD

lol, not betaing for that guy. No sireee, I'm gonna give him back the last chapter and then find my way out of that mess. I've got loads better stuff to do than patch up his stuff (like watching Avatar :teehee:)

I will persevere. One chapter. I. Will. Survive.

And it sucks that I didn't really find him; he found me through my writing. He was a reviewer and somehow we started PMing each other. Then he asked me to beta his fic and I was like, yeah sure.

Big mistake. White-out please.

I REALLY MEANT 'DRAW' DAMNIT. DRAW! BAAAAW.



;_;

It'll probably be a while before I let you live it down, krisk. Don't mind me. I still you

WRIIIIIITE!!!!

And I checked out the Robin thingy. Nice little place you got running there, krisk. Those people can actually draw. And very well, too. Me jealous.

You draw really good, krisk. :thumbs: Iz not fair - why everyone talented and me not?

[Onionhead Attacks]

LEE-CHHYAN SHE SAID A DUDE. A DUUUUUDE. DUDE DUDE DUDE. D:

My memory fails me at this moment to who this DUUUUUUUDE could be. XD I'll think of something later maybe >.>

EDIT: I have a few people in mind, but I'm not sure if it's right or not... Here's to wild guesses!

Possible choices? --Click here to view--

Blue Spirit
The Earth King
Bosco the bear (don't ask)
THE GURU!!! (whatever his name is...)

Big mistake. White-out please.
