    Coffee or Tea?

    Depends. Taste wise? Tea. But my working regular before unemployment hit was instant coffee in lukewarm water. For it's not instant if you need to boil the water.

    Writing Prompt Envy's Poem Thread

    Mankind's faintest foe The day in my belly, I turn it around, And it keeps on turning As my throat is burning. As strong thoughts abound I turn on the telly. The day shown by ray tubes Is less colorful. It sounds much too hollow, much too light to swallow. I munch my bowl awful Beans with...

    Your opinions on the way that dark elves are written in fantasy novels

    I've read a story like that on a private "reader's adventure" website. The elves are split based on magic and religion, so the dark elves who use soul magic are white because they live in dark caves. The elves who live in the forest range from tanned to dark. Couldn't find an image of the...

    If you do not mind webnovel, I liked " 48 Hours a Day". It features a lot of earth mythology.

    Recommendations Different explanations of cultivation mechanisms

    I think I read a few qidian novels like this. Been too long, but the main drawback was usually the loss of self. Cultivators subsuming a Dao or even all the Daos were no longer themselves. Consider it, everyone has their own Dao. If you subsume the Dao of the Heaven and the Earth, you will...

    Are illustrations an excuse for bad descriptions?

    Illustrations should have alt-text. If authors abide by that rule, I do not mind.

    Are you a cunt?

    No, moral issues aside, that's the most boring way to gain godhood. Besides, something granted so easily will be lost just as quickly.

    What do you think of this Idea?

    sounds like the typical qidian novel before they changed their guidelines. used to be full of historical characters with slightly misspelled yet recognizable names. I like your source. the time magic part is novel, usually these just pop out of a time rift or something.

    How does the Scribble hub (Forum) moderation and banning process works or doesn't

    Mate, same! But I am enjoying the tea nonetheless. I wonder, does this have anything to do with the scr***ler phenomenon mentioned in the other thread?

    How to kill off important characters en masse?

    That reminds me of the author who killed the fan favorite, protagonist's best friend because "life isn't fair kids". Since statistically, a lot of people die by car accident or by slipping and hitting their heads in the shower, one might think readers would welcome such a realistic approach...

    Got 1 star because of a comment in forum.

    That's not what I meant. If I find a good story while logged in, I will add it to my reading list or if it is on RR to my RSS reader. But I won't bother logging in every time I visit the site. Especially, if it's just to read a new chapter or two. If I find something worth commenting on...

    Can we please add a "Stay on Page" function for the text editor?

    Let's suppose you miraculously did add a custom feature to all modern web browsers, it would still take time for users to update their browsers. You are better off using beforeunload, it has decent support: https://caniuse.com/?search=beforeunload I have seen websites that do some textarea...

    Genre shift to Lovecraft. One Eldritch horror is all it takes.

    This will exclude people who read without being logged in. It is also easy to trick. Waiting with a tab open for six minutes is not a big deal for a troll. Even if you measure scroll, there are browser add-ons for that. Such measures just end up annoying people who did not log in. Maybe he...

    Embarassing thing you did that you now remember fondly

    A friend told me about an abandoned house in a nearby forest. We and another friend decided to go and explore it. From the front it looked absolutely abandoned. Barricaded doors and windows, overgrown walls, surrounded by untamed nature. Friend showed us to an open basement window. Now that...
