Folks seriously... just give it a try.. Ryn hates one liners (makes his job WAY harder......ok?) BUT give 5 or 10 lines a try... really....just do it... even if you think there are 'to many posting already" cause your style may be different..you may catch their expressions..or you might discuss other angles of the same scene...and those who can't WATCH ...can read your post later and learn more from your additional info on the same scene...

trust me...try it... ok? Don't worry if your "not as good as...so and so" it's not about that really.... I work these days and I love all the live feed posters ..even those who are "not as good as...." someone else cause they caught something that that other person didn't..etc..

Come on TRY IT!!!!!!

I would have to agree. Heck, I only started doing it a couple of days ago. Once you catch on, you do get your own style. It's quite fun to do actually :)

Hopefully you have enjoyed my postings and the others, so why don't you just jump in there! :)

Go ahead! Mindspin dares ya!

Plus don't forget - if you become a poster you'll have a better chance of seeing full frontal shots of Roddy taking a shower.

I still can't believe I was lucky enough to catch that this morning.

Or for those who don't want to see that, you may catch a glimpse of Amy or Tonya almost nekked. :)

Well..with my luck I'd get the full frontal gerry..

LOL.. I have been trying to practice..but my gosh..how do you guys remember what they said? I have short term memory!!!

I'll tell you what.. I'll practice a little bit and submit it to one of the LFPs and see if it passes muster..:)

Everytime I think that I will give it a try, I seem to come in in the middle of some conversation and feel like it is just "hanging out there." Is this how you start - You just start typing right in the middle of a conversation?

I wait and switch cams until I find the start of a convo. Or at least wait until someone starts a sentence. :) lol

If you feel uncomfortable starting in the middle of a conversation, wait until after a lengthy foth (front of the house). That way what you've missed of the conversation is what we all missed.

Multiple conversations between up to 12 people at the same time can be difficult to follow. Try starting out with a feed with someone in a room alone or with 1 or 2 people talking to each other. If there are more people, or more than one conversation, focus on the one you find most interesting or one that you think anyone else posting may be missing.

Any advice for a perfectionist who find themselves starting to type a conversation, then having to correct all typos, by which time the entire conversation has elapsed or the cameras have changed???

When I do it Draheid, I type out for about 10-15 minutes depending on convo. I figure if I can catch a whole convo. then it is great. Once the camera changes I fix typos and spell out abbreviated things and then post...look around on the feeds for another one or start up on one that has started. Does that make sense? I am a perfectionist too.

All I can say is that you LFP's are GODS!!! I don't have a PC at home (unbelievable I know) and can't get the feeds at work (naturally!), so I rely on you guys to fill in the details for me! Thank goodness I am slow at work right now so I can keep up with the action!!! Thank you for all your hard work, each and every one of you!!!!

Typos? forget about em, I would much rather read typos than no live feed posts ;)

we are a VERY forgiving lot.

the BIGGEST problem I have is when somone doesn't ever hit the ENTER key so there is a huge paragraph to muddle through, I figgure too many breaks are better than none.

just get it posted and don't fret about it :)

I OWE! I OWE! SO OFF TO POST I GO!!!

I have read and been grateful for the LFP for two years now. I guess it's payback time.

Ryn - I hope you're right about the forgiveness.

Tex - trust me - for every one person that might complain - 100 will be thankful.

and even the people that complain are usually still thankful

Ryn

Well - that was interesting.

I stand corrected - not THAT forgiving.

I was wrong - the feeds are all sex talk at the moment

Tex did fine - it was just the material she had to work with that threw me.

The only advice I can give, as a infrequent LFPer of BB3 (as yet) but frequent LFPer of BB2...just jump right in!

Like others have said here, once you start typing, you wind up having your own style. Everyone has their own, some paraphrase, some verbatim. Some hit the enter key all the time (like me), some have paragraphs. And everyone has their own preference for the "style" of posts they like to read.

Don't be intimidated...anything you can catch is appreciated. What one LFP misses, others make up for

Whit, when I was doing LFP's this afternoon all I could think was "hit the enter key, hit the enter key, " lol.

Did my first post tonight, after lurking for the other two. I know I should go to bed, these guys are doing NOTHING! anyway, thought I'd try it late at night while there aren't as many posting. Hope I did ok.

Melinva, I'm following Spy in saying great job and thanks! You did wonderful!

I don't over-react Ryn, I just freak out once in awhile! As I've been saying for the past couple of weeks, I'm getting a bit nutty, LOL.
