Until you read what Vel is offering you (a read of a complete story), and make some intelligent comments, we're ignoring you.

Seconded.

We can repeat the same thing in every old thread you dredge up.

Put up, or shut up.

We're offering you bullets for the gun. Take it. Don't take it.

Makes no difference to me.

But if you're not planning to take it, then you're just blowing so much hot air, when you *could* be making a real critique.

When he wanted to publish his debut book, the usual procedure was not an option for him. Publishers were appalled at the fact that he as the author wanted to make the decisions regarding the book’s design. So, Tufte took out a mortgage on his home, purchased a large garage and has since published all of his books himself. “My view on self-publishing was to go all out, to make the best and most elegant and wonderful book possible – without compromise. Otherwise, why do it?” he explains.

It's done. I was right. Vel was wrong. so were the rest of you who followed him. Nothing is getting done. Glaciers in Alaska move faster than this project.

Could you please fix it so the lightbulb and different name does not show up, when you all are in your exclusivist Area 25, then? Like, before this post, it shows Solver as most recent post. But since that is in private forum, what happens is that the good people of Apolyton come into the regular forum, looking for a new remark. But there isn't one. So, you've wasted their time.

I'll (pretend to) read your vanity publications, Vel, if you let me (rampage) in the private forums.

1) We have completed a trilogy of books set in the Candle'Bre universe, the first of which is available in its entirety for free on our website (http://www.candlebre.com/marketplace)

You are free to read this work (or not) as it pleases you, but don't tear it down till you've actually given it a go. We'd be happy to discuss it with you if you care to read it tho.

2) You have a long, demonstrable history of negativity where this project is concerned, and I don't feel that would add terribly much value to the project. You are, of course, free to disagree, but your request to join the group is denied.

3) We're just a couple kids playing fort, remember? So it shouldn't be terribly upsetting to you to see Solver's name appear as the "latest post" here, only to discover he made a private comment in our work directories.

4) Happy holidays.

My suggestion is that you go get drunk, throw up and go to sleep.

It's what you do best, after all.

Just a heads up tco...

There are a few more posts in the private forums. Hope this doesn't disrupt your stupor.

I'm sorry I didn't see or respond to this sooner.

The funny thing is...he *actually believes* he's tormenting us somehow.

That's so precious!
