"Essay requirements:" "-Essay must be written on google docs"
Well, hell no to this. There isn't any way you can get me to give OT any of my like 5+ gmail accounts.
-Essay must be at least half a page long -Contains view on OT -Contains what you think the point of OT is -What you want OT to be -What OT is like -Your role in OT "-Siggy at the bottom of the page"
I haven't had a siggy in forever, but my old ones used to be 1-worded things like 'Dragons! :)' and the sorts.
Anyways, for the essay:
As things current stand, in my eyes Off Topic is a unique community in the sense that it contains a wide variety of individuals, but it is not necessarily a community with which I would extend a large amount of time or resources to situate myself within. In saying this, I mean that in the past, I have dealt with a number of characters and lived through a number of Off Topic incidents, and in the past I had this dire need for friendship that needed to be fulfilled because I had a lack of people to socialize with, no social media accounts for me to mindlessly browse, and a fair, though not permanently debilitating, lack of social skills. Though I am in a perpetual state of loneliness, I no longer see the need to continue returning to OT as obsessively as I had in the past, as it is no longer a community which I know like the back of my hand.
Gone are the days where I was the innocent, friendly, intelligent, mature 12 year-old girl who would go on here to hang out with her friends every day. Gone are the days where as that same girl, I would seek gratification for my loneliness in cheering people up, and in constantly telling people my problems. Where I stand now, being nice does nothing for me. It doesn't make me happy, nor does it make me unhappy. It just happens. Talking about my problems is similar in that respect, as it does nothing to change the problem at hand, and instead provides a temporary relief that to some extend worsens the situation.
Though I still know and appreciate the past usernames and ROBLOX avatars I have befriended over the years, a number of them are gone. A number of them have been forgotten. My meticulously-built memory palace dedicated to hanging onto every friend I made has come apart due to time and lack of interest. I no longer understand why it's important for me to remember everyone on here. In this way, I have created a barrier that prevents me from making new friends here, as any new members of the community with whom I interact are no longer registered in my mind as potential friends. Rather, it's more like talking to a wall.
As for what I want Off Topic to be? Well, I don't have many high hopes for this place. I've seen the good and the bad. I think that its best purpose is to serve as a place for any lonely person to make friends, but there are better communities to do this in which are targeted towards people's specific interests, so I'm not quite sure how well Off Topic does this.
My role in OT? I don't think I have one -- an important one, at least. I'm here from time-to-time, but that's about it. |

@Songs Alright. You have a score of 95/100. I think your essay was pretty nice, a BIT descriptive. It wasn't all that descriptive, but I was able to make out what you wanted to tell me. Thanks.

Oh. Thanks. That seems to be the general trend of my writing -- too much information, not enough time. |

OT Essay 08008880888808880080 Begun at 23:33
I would say that my view on OT is a love/hate view. Most of the time, we get good, and funny posts. Other times, they’re just unwanted and controversial. My view on the OT community is pretty good, with good members, but can sometimes have idiotic members.
I believe that the point of OT is to be funny and random, but it has changed, and all you have to do to start a flame war, is post something to why “furries should die” etc. But the main point of it is in it’s name, off topic, which is why people normally go to OT to post the worst and weirdest stuff.
If I could recreate OT I would get rid of all the terrible community members, stop people thinking that post count matters, and kill all the furries. (seriously)
Time to say it.. OT IS PRETTY MUCH INFECTED AND RUINED WITH ALL THESE CRAP POSTS AND TERRIBLE MEMBERS. PLEASE, FIX THIS.. FIX THISSSSSS.
My role in OT is to be as edgy as possible, because that’s pretty much what every OT member is good at already.
She pushed her feet against the board walk.. // ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) // Remember to stay like le Lenny. |

I sent it to you. I'll post it here to:
My OTer Essay
My Roblox username is LyricLynx, and I have been foruming for about a year. I started on S&I which was full of judgemental scripter wannabes, but then I eventually migrated to OT. Honestly, I think Roblox intended OT to be a place where we could share white dad jokes and talk about innocent, harmless subjects. However, over the years, OT has transformed into a haven for crazy people. All we discuss is Donald Trump, cheesy scenarios that no one cares about, Youtube links that we’re all too lazy to click+watch, and L2D posts. Basically, we post on OT because the Roblox games are boring and sponsored by stuff like Alvin and the Chipmunks (I mean, really? Who watches Alvin and the Chipmunks anymore?).
I want OT to stay like it is, because hey, if it was different, then it wouldn’t be OT. My only complaint is how people point out your smallest mistakes in your thread rather than the thread’s content itself.
I’m not that popular on OT, so I guess my role would be the person that’s on the side who posts every now and then. The types of threads I usually enjoy creating are silly L2D’s, weird stories, and questions (what’s your favorite food? How do you think the universe was created? etc).
But yeah, idk OT is alright. Sure, it’s full of butthurt 15 year olds who have nothing better to do with their lives, but that’s okay. I like OT with its memes and bait. I get a good laugh out of it every now and then.
[I don’t have a siggy, so…]

okay shortly after i did what i wasn;t supposed to did but did it anyway i we nt out on a walk
I N THE B E G IN N I N G (UT) me and my gf went out on a walk to new territory originally it was for job searching but we only spotted one job ill come back to that later but here is the lowdown on the events: we walked out and then my gf was too cold so we went back to get an extra layer we returned outside and started our journey it was in a relatively familar street one that i have crossed many times in times before these times yes but we walked to the park her hand is really warm i t hurts but anyways i wrote that to you btw but we went to the park and we took a turn to a new road one that goes up the mountains
T H E NEW W A Y (UT)
this raod was filled with many houses i enjoyed the aesethic of and it was really nice AH but yes it was nice nice nice ice ice ice we went all the way to the top of the hill (the longest hill in history) ONCE AT THE TOP i wanted to go to the lights the most beautiful lights oh yeah there was a light in the mountains it looked like a moon but it was a good light next to a temple that looked like a diarama with good lightning but anyways i walked to the lights a long long hike but only was 15 minutes i was officially out of it it was when i began opsting on my phone but anyways we walked on forward
F L A S H I N G LIGHTS (MT) the lights were as following: artic circle (now hiring but gf not interesrted) , , , two gas stations; route 66 & one with dinosaur logo , , , sincliar , , , a urban country outfitters looked a little less urban more like country , , , nail shop , , , houses , ,, , , , but we then found something even more important...
S M I T H WITH F U N N Y NAME (VT)
we had found ourselves in the middle of the holy grounds - - a smith's knockoff with an inappropriate name , , , :::: we walked down the snowy hill the bright lights filling i got some snow in my new Clarks Desert Boots!!! but anyways w ewalked insid e i had not yet begun to feel the full affects but soon or later i did I BEGAN moving in segments not arc radians the lights were incredibly bright the n it hit me i t was a smith';s that had maybe been privated bought and now operated with a new nfw name we went quickly to get a few drinks on the road ---- she bought bawl energy drionk guanava i bought la croix lime flavor in a bottle -- mm yes vert good (we walked to the register, self-checkout--- bought with debit card h ad just tiny bit of trouble ---- END SCENE:
T H E TURN O F THE H I L L (OR)
we walked down the name of store and it was cleaned out no snow on streets it took almost maybe a century but we did it and we wa lked THEN WE HIT THE HILL the hill was very winding particularly so but it straighten out soon ...
S T R A I G H T ROAD (CO) WE HAD walked into colorado it was nice wait no it was more like illinois
s t r a i g h t road (il)
WE HAD WALKED RIGHT INTO ILLINOIS THE ROAD WERE LOW AND STRAIGHT WE HAD WALKED THROUGH BEFORE THE CORN FIELDS THAT WEREN'T THERE WERE IN HARVEST we walked until we crossed the road a jay w alking road did i forget to mention this was the last time without follow the running man (this was the last one we will see) last time last time last time we waited for the cars to pass and they did and then we passed into the cementry
P E T SEMETERY SECRATORY TEMPORARY! SECRATORTY! (MT, havre) _-------------- --------------------------------------------------------
this was the cementry very low there was vegetation corn like in harve but it also had the coolness of montona and well it was incredibly long to walk through i began to feel like a 10 on the out of it scale the moon was red for some reason the whole place was a darkish red in sepia if you know what i mean
i would turn back and see how long th road we walked was but it wasnt actually that long!! it was longer when i ha d walked it!!!
i forgot to me ntion that it in the beiginning when i checked the curfew gf said "we 're of age!" i laughed she didnt know what i was talking about...hehehe women a m i right audience laughter we checked the office for any info but only cars were not allowed through that was okay last time i checked i saw the movie cars in the day (lie: i was night) no curfew we were safe from the video cameras..
we went to the end it was a terribly long walk we reached the end it was a baseball field only kneedead in snow we reached the end
C A R DEALERSHIP U S E D (MIchigan)
the car deadership was spooky i thought we were being too loud! we were susipicous began to move weirdly in a way but you know how it is g ... we took a while to reach the end if only because the turn was so brutal we exchanged sodas she had drank it all by that point it began to feel like i had jsut spent the entire night yet it was only just over a little under a hour from the start maybe 6:02 PM
the theory of time i was not yet ajdusted to the winter sunsets the short days long nights so i felt like it was 9 pm by the time it atually became dark
THE F A M I L A R PATH (UT)
i was back to the familar roads the one where we take to smiths it went somewhat fast gf mentioned metal gear solid 4
the last turn of the road was very very filled with paths corssing each time very scary to me not that scary to me but in retrospect but we manmaged to get back to the house the street was on but my gf mistook it for one less but i convinced to come my way and we did
i was finally home. scarilys 2 hours whe n it felt like the dead of the night....
H O M E (EPILOGUE)
i was home... ... ... ... it only felt like the entire night... ... ... come to realize it it was only just now been two hours... ...
...
roblox... it's free! |
