Who wants to see a fanfic in which, halfway through chapter one, my donut steel OC debates Glimmer and then kicks her ass when she attacks him?

I like the US. It's got human rights and gun rights, it's got a populace willing to fight antifa, and it's got some nice-sounding accents.
Hey, when are Americans going to try and get Trump to grant amnesty and sanctuary to Tommy Robinson, BTFOing the corrupt UK establishment elites and turning this into an international incident?

Last I heard, he served his time and made it out unscathed. I'm happy for him but hopefully that's the end of the problem?

That being said if things get really bad I'd be down for a letter writing campaign to let Robinson into the American pre-ethnostate

Well, you tried, and that should be applauded.
The scene with Silver and the Dragon was a joke scene. You did notice that the dumbest anime bullshit happened entirely within the Dragon mare's head, right? Right? Riiiiiiight?

Y'all'd probably have a better understanding of this story if you read all of it, instead of this one chapter. You'd know what Silver's Extreme Gear is, for example.

Should I have made it more obvious that Silver was bluffing when he claimed he's invincible when he's angry? Was the implication that he wouldn't have lost a fight in an earlier chapter if he actually had this ability not enough? Oh, right, I forgot. You also skipped the chapter where he loses a fight and gets out of dying right there by bluffing, so you didn't recognize that as a consistent character trait. Should I make my work simple enough for a whiny Glimmer fanboy who feels entitled to skip chapters and still understand everything to understand?

I get that you aren't playing with a full deck, in more ways than one, but tell me you don't think Naruto invented the idea of Shadow Clones. Come on, even World Of Warcraft had those. Was namedropping Mirror Image not enough?

Honestly, the only remotely reasonable complaint here was that Twilight, someone the Dragon Mare didn't know, didn't really say or do anything inside an anime battle that happened entirely in that Dragon Mare's head. Because sure. What even is foreshadowing?

Unfortunately, the UK lacks Double Jeopardy laws, so the govt is trying to arrest him again. For the same non-crime. At this rate, they should really just put the Second Legal Defense Fund into spiriting him, his wife, and his family out of the country and into a country not ruled by Muslim Theocrats.

Hi Nigel, I'm the anon who's shitting on you in the other thread. Figured I'd pop on over to this one and see what it felt like to shit on you here.

>The scene with Silver and the Dragon was a joke scene. You did notice that the dumbest anime bullshit happened entirely within the Dragon mare's head, right? Right? Riiiiiiight?
See, the problem with this, Nigel, is that it's impossible to tell what's supposed to be a joke scene and what isn't, because you completely lack the ability to read or write any level of irony. Your OC is so overpowered and ridiculous it's almost impossible to filter out which ridiculous things are unintentional because you can't tell the difference.

Also, the fight scene with the dragon-horse-thing is really not so much a joke as it is a pathetic, completely transparent platform for your faggot OC to show off his rad ninja skills in front of Twilight. Then he just sort of casually drops it into the conversation that this apparently super-powered unbeatable chimera is a creature that he found and, naturally, trained himself. He did this, of course, in between running his multi-million dollar company, fighting monsters in other dimensions, performing impossible feats of magic, playing bass for Metallica, and whatever the fuck else this preposterous character does.

>Should I have made it more obvious that Silver was bluffing when he claimed he's invincible when he's angry? Was the implication that he wouldn't have lost a fight in an earlier chapter if he actually had this ability not enough? Oh, right, I forgot. You also skipped the chapter where he loses a fight and gets out of dying right there by bluffing, so you didn't recognize that as a consistent character trait. Should I make my work simple enough for a whiny Glimmer fanboy who feels entitled to skip chapters and still understand everything to understand?

Even after I've taken the time to slog my way through most of your 32k+ word epic (which is only Chapter 6 of another work that is only God knows how long) and have grown intimately familiar with your massive ego, it seems I can still be amazed by just how bottomless the depths of your hubris really are. This one is just so packed with juicy Nigel-isms that I'd like to look at each item one at a time.

>Should I have made it more obvious that Silver was bluffing when he claimed he's invincible when he's angry?
Yes. You should have, because as I stated earlier, you are completely incapable of being ironic and you give your character so many stupid powers it's hard to imagine you would allow him to NOT be invincible.

>Was the implication that he wouldn't have lost a fight in an earlier chapter if he actually had this ability not enough?
Get this through your head. Your story is long, convoluted, preposterously verbose, poorly constructed, poorly planned, poorly executed. Anyone willing to take time out of their day to slog through this dreck deserves a medal, but you've got the balls to start berating people for not having read more of it?

>Oh, right, I forgot. You also skipped the chapter where he loses a fight and gets out of dying right there by bluffing, so you didn't recognize that as a consistent character trait.
Nobody fucking cares, Nigel. Your character is terrible and everyone hates him.

>Should I make my work simple enough for a whiny Glimmer fanboy who feels entitled to skip chapters and still understand everything to understand?
"Feels entitled to skip chapters?" "FEELS ENTITLED TO SKIP CHAPTERS?!?" Jesus fucking Christ, unironically kill yourself. Oh, wait, you don't understand irony. FUCKING KILL YOURSELF.

Listen, you arrogant pile of dogshit. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, is under any obligation to read any of this. That any of us have been willing to take FIVE MINUTES to read even ANY of this river of steaming liquid feces that you call a fanfiction is something you should be on your knees praising Allah for.

Your writing is terrible. Your OC is the most unlikable, overpowered, ridiculous, laughable unintentional parody of himself I have ever encountered anywhere. This is quite literally the worst thing I have ever read, anywhere, and I've read like three of the Harry Potter books.

You come to this site, post TWO THREADS begging us to read this self-aggrandizing pile of steaming baby vomit, then you have the nerve to act like you're doing us a favor by letting us read it? Like we need to really read the entire work just to be able to understand the subtle nuances of your creative genius? Fuck. You.

Listen, Nigel. This isn't a critique anymore. You don't deserve a critique. This is an intervention. You need to hear this:

YOU. CAN'T. WRITE. Your plot is clumsily structured and confusing. Your dialogue is awful. You don't even remotely understand the characters you're writing about. Right at this moment, there are 7 year old girls acting out simplistic stories using plastic MLP toys who are producing better stories with better characterizations than anything you've ever written in your life.

And for the last time: YOUR OC IS FUCKING GARBAGE. Silver Star is the stupidest, most overpowered, obnoxious, bland, cringey brony OC that has ever been conceived, and frankly that's saying a lot.

Stop writing forever, Nigel. Chop your fucking hands off so you won't be tempted to do it. Cut your tongue out so you won't be able to dictate stories to a computer that doesn't know any better. Jump off a bridge when you're done just to be on the safe side.

You are a terrible writer, Nigel. It has become glaringly apparent that you will never improve, so stop trying. You will never be good at this, ever.

Oh shit, there's stuff in here that I missed.

I have no idea what Silver's "Extreme Gear" is, however it does not even remotely surprise me that this is a thing he would have.

>What even is foreshadowing?
That is just one of many hundreds of questions about the subtleties of the writer's craft that you should be asking yourself.

You know what? I haven't read all of your work. Originally, I just wanted to shitpost a little and milk you like the lolcow you are. But I've changed my mind. I'm fascinated now. I'm not just going to deconstruct chapter 6. I am going to read EVERY FUCKING WORD of this shit you wrote and deconstruct EVERY FUCKING CHAPTER, because I want to understand. It's like you're not even human, you're some kind of genetic oddity, like the Elephant Man. You deserve to be studied. Hell, you deserve to have a crack team of researchers observing you round the clock, but that's sadly a little beyond my means to arrange. But I want to understand. And one day, I will.

These threads must have had one of the most groundbreaking turns i have witness since i started browsing chan sites in 2008. We are witnessing history here. I hope you are happy Nigel. you better be with the demons you have summoned. This guy is going to nail you to a cross and make a travesty out of You. At Last, You are famous now, this will attract more people to you than ever.

This is your personal coronation. Enjoy it.

Hehe, kek
Nigel, I really hope you don't kill yourself however I do think you should stop posting here for your own sake. It is clear that no one here wants to read your stories since no one has defended you. So why do you bother posting here?
I tried reading the first chapter of the story you linked but lost intrest in it quite fast.
Although I don't want to become a victim for a potential help-vampire, I do think that you could be good writer. I base that on the fact you have stayed dedicated on a project, such as you story, for so long.
So I will give you advice from the little I read in your story. I skipped a lot and read through it with high-speed so I probably missed something.
However my critism concerns a specific scene were Silver's secatary tells him that his coffee is ready (What coffee really, Nigel?). They start talking about how Silver has ben reading for sventeen hours in a one go without breaks. Here is the thing though. Yes, establishing a character's trait like this is okay I guess. But I wouldn't write it like that. If I were to tell my readers: "This character is smart", I would have showed my readers a problem first and then let my chracter solve it.
Also, reads books, meh. Nothing specifc just books.

This so much. Unironically, without a shred of exaggeration, this whole travesty that is Nigel's life has just left me with so many keks just spilling out of him in real time that I can't help but feel like I'm finally part of the chan culture that I abandoned in the 2010s, all over again.

I wish that I could bottle up moments like this and keep them forever.

Of course, so on top of being a Prodigy, a genius, a scientist, a magician, the strongest fighter, the richest business-owner, from another universe, aware of and involved in all doomed timelines like a Time player in Homestuck, AND a damn ninja, he also happens to have a high-tech surfboard. There's no way this is real, the spaghetti is just spilling from his pockets with every piece of trivia we get.

Oh god you just reminded me about pothead the porcupine - er, "Silver the Hedgehog."

Also I usually arpee-colon-three with on-the-spot characters made in the moment, and only a couple have silver in their names. Usually they turn out to be physically weak but with some kind of alternative form of strength such as tactical acumen or a thing for tech. I think that's well enough balanced for the purpose of role playing, maybe not for novel-length fics but miles above Silver Star for sure.

Sounds like a perfectly fine character, considering the MMO trifecta of Tank, DPS, and White Mage. In fact, having a character who is set up in that manner is actually a great idea if you want to create a good narrative of multiple characters meeting and befriending each other

No no no, wait. It's actually good. It goes in some serious depth about mythology, archetypes, personality, and categorization, as well as symolism in general which isn't just littered throughout Homestuck, it's fucking flooded Homestuck. Like...if you opened a door the sheer force of its symbolism would probably force you out of it.

I been wondering is Nigel's story actually a parody it has the comedy tag is he parodying the opwered oc trope.
If that's what your doing, then you are doing it wrong. It is like one punch man if you are going to have a op oc, then use this character to subvert tropes around him. If it is comedy your aiming for, then do something unexpected with the character. There are many other fanfiction stories with mary-sues and here is the crux. You think that you are parodizing these stories while you are actually adding to them. Because reading your story, is as insufferable as reading the real thing. There are no jokes in your stories becauee I can't tell what is a joke and what isn't.
For example in my last post I mentioned a part in your story were your oc says that he has been reading for seventeen hours.
I don't know if this is a joke or not for several reasons. First is that it is almost possible to achive consider one is awake each day for like fithteen hours for some even more. So it might not be out of this world to train yourself to be capable of doing this. If you had instead increased the time for his reading to like three whole days or a week, then I would have known that it was joke. Since it is impossible, to do that.
The other reason is that everything is exaggrated so nothing stands out.
Basicly what you should have done with this character is to play off with his absurd character traits. Like since he probably has the biggest dong in all of equestria, have him be afraid of pants with zippers or something.
