Dust off a seat and discuss a good book here...you do read, right?

Anyone ever heard of this novel series? I read all of the first series and half of the second series throughout the course of middle school and loved it, for those of you who don't know what the novels are about well its pretty much feral cats. They are in different clans living in a forest, they follow codes, hunt in parties and many other various things. The books may be a little too childish for most of you nowadays but, back in those middle schooler days I couldn't get enough of them XD.

That description sorta makes me think of Redwall, anyone?

The description sort of makes me think of furry porn.

It's not really disallowed... so much as all the badly written furry erotica is. But that goes for any fandom.

If we must do that, shouldn't we do that across the board?

I agree that they tend to write crappy storygames, but we will never get a good one if we keeping telling them to go away.

If you're going to post links like that, then you should do it for just about every single book in the reading corner because none of them are really just as relevant as a warrior cats fan talking about warrior cats on  the site.

 

There are other crappy fan fiction-ish storygames on this site.

http://chooseyourstory.com/story/mario%27s-adventure-island (maybe not as badly written as some of the warrior cat storygames, but still horribly linear)

http://chooseyourstory.com/story/adventures-in-skyrim (better than most of the warrior cat storygames writing wise, but just as linear)

http://chooseyourstory.com/story/princess-twilight-sparkle (better written, but still quite linear, also does an extremely poor job of introducing the reader to the world like a lot of the warrior cat story games do)

Wow, really? If you think warrior cat story games are bad, then why don't you make a better one? 

Warriors by Erin Hunter

Good one!

Warriors f*cking sucks. In fact, that wasn't even a good comeback, so saying 'Good one!' makes us like you a lot less. (Not like we ever liked you LMAO ROFL)

XD Why would he? XD 

Is flamepelt another one of your accounts?

They really are bad. You guys think that they're great because you have an IQ of negative fucking 10 no grasp for basic grammar.

oh for pete's sake, if you're not going to say something about how you LIKE WC, then just stop and keep quiet!

Me liking "wErrieRz"? What, are you fucking nuts? Seriously, this site isn't a bunch of ninny 10-year-olds that like cat pr0n and cats in the fucking woods. Why don't you just fucking stop and be quiet? This is the fucking internet! We don't just stop because you want us to, we don't know you in real life, and therefor you cannot make us stop. Warriors is for a bunch of little kids who like cats to fucking much, and think that cats are soooo amazing, when they're little shitheads whose piss everywhere and claw at everyone because they're bloody pricks! Now just shut the fuck up, and get off this site, and go write your shitty cat pr0n elsewhere!

Do you even know how Warriors became my favorite book? I was bored, and I saw it on a shelf, so I took it, checked it out of my school's library and read it! And I thought it was a really interesting book, so I read many of the others. Have you ever even read the books?! Also, I didn't even like cats very much! What's wrong with liking Warriors? If you don't like it, why do you complain about people who do like it? Complain to the authors of Warriors!

People are allowed to have their own opinions, but they should not complain about or critcize others' opinions!

Excatly! My friend ... (I'm not saying her name) hates cats, yet me and my other friend ... gave her a book, and then she likes Warriors.

*Long facepalm that drags down my eyelids and facial muscles* I'm not complaining about your opinion, I'm complaining that you think that these shitty fanfics are actually good! Why the fuck do you make them, when we have clearly shown that we don't fucking want them!? Cats are disgusting, and stupid, and Warriors makes them a hell of a lot worse! Just get off the fucking site! Your argument is invalid, and I have the entire fucking site to back me up, right? *Cricket noises* Okay, maybe I don't, but I want you and that stupid bitch Flamepelt outta here! #DEATHTOWARRIORS

For all I care, you can stay on the site. But one more story about cats in the goddamn woods, cat pr0n, or just cats in general, then you better shape up your shit or die. And about your little RP reply and trying to start an RP reply thing:

You can, but he will likely not do anything. If you do have a problem with what people say and believe that it constitutes flaming, you can always tag madglee or JJJ-thebanisher. Sorry, if I'm actually offending you. I'm just playing mainly.

Besides, the mods agree with us on the Warrior Cat opinion. 

Warriors by Erin Hunter

Maybe the Warrior Cat story games are bad, but it's probably because the authors don't have very good writing skills! I will publish a Warrior Cat story game that will be better than you think it will!

Warriors by Erin Hunter

How about you start with a non-warriors game first, so you can see what the community thinks about your writing skills. That way, if you do create a WC game and get a bunch of crap, you can be sure it is bias and not an honest opinion on your writing skills.

Warriors by Erin Hunter

First I'll publish my riddles story game, then my Warrior Cats storygame.

Warriors by Erin Hunter

You're not the only person to have claimed that.

Even if you did make a good game, it wouldn't matter. People would still rate it good or bad and WC will still be frowned upon.

Warriors by Erin Hunter

I find it funny that people here are willing to debate and change their ideas after a good debate but when presented with a case of WC's they refuse to accept that not all WC Fanfiction is bad.

Shhhh...

I'm pretty sure people are allowed to state their opinions.

This is the internet.

Warriors by Erin Hunter

Common criticisms that I agree with of warrior cats story games include:

- Very poor grammar
- Very poor spelling
- Poor use of the story game editor (Like links that are "Click here if you're male") **may be understandable for a first game, but it isn't that had to mess with that really **
- Very short in length
- Limited choices (being male or female shouldn't be the only choice in the game)
- Not original story (join clan, become apprentice, fight a little, hunt a little, get mate, have kits) **If that was the only thing the characters in the book did that you remember, then you need to reread the books again. This time focusing on the main characters, whose lives involve more than just this.**
- Not much reason to care about the characters in the storygames given
-Not much detail given
- Poor way of introducing people that don't know the books or have a limited knowledge of the books to the world
- Clumsy dialogue
- Limited endings (this goes along with limited choices)


 

 

I've been playing with the idea. However I think my first storygame to be published on this site should be something that would be more welcomed by the community. More than a few here would rate it low as possible just because it was a warrior cat storygame. You, "fans", probably wouldn't like it as it would be quite different from the stuff you guys end up producing. It would be a flop regardless of its quality. (unless it was a parody)

Why does he need to be able to write a good fan fiction, to enable him to give good criticism?

Warriors by Erin Hunter

Or more specifically, why does he have to be able to write a good warrior cat fan fiction to give good criticism? It's like all those fat coaches who can't do anything athletic. They can't actually do it, but they can coach well enough.
