Andrew, I don't post every review I write on these boards. Also, I don't like making huge, sweeping changes in my writing style. I'm not comfortable with doing that, although I am comfortable with making small, gradual changes to my writing.

Someone with eye trouble WOULD know what it was. In order to fix something, you have to understand the problem. If you can't read you get prescriptions from a doctor, you don't turn the res up on your monitor and then say everythings better. For all you know it could be hurting your eyes in the long term.Quote:

At any rate, resolution wouldn't do anything.
Well, thanks for the clarification there. I'm just going by how things are in execution, in which I can read fine when there's a screen displaying text, and can't read well at all when there isn't. Please don't tell me what I SHOULD or SHOULDN'T know.
So? You're not COMFORTABLE? That's a GOOD thing. You can only be comfortable after you try. Small changes aren't going to work because you're so reluctant. Dive in, head first.Quote:

You being comfortable has been the problem with this thread and why it's taken you so long to make some small changes. You've come far enough to shorten and make your reviews more consice, why don't you finish the task.
That's bullshit though. Text is not a highly defined image. It's not going to get much, if any, finer unless you pump up the size. That's my point, the whole thing reaks of an excuse.Quote:

Okay, I'll bite. My next review posted here, which will probably be for Magic Pengel or Mega Man Network Transmission, will feature a WHOLE NEW writing style from me.
EDIT- Network Transmission review is forthcoming, and will be under 100 words.
This is going to sound crazy, everybody, but I've gotten Jeremy to open up and take your advice. He's going to try and improve now, fully.
Not take one tidbit of advice over another. He's going to try and change everything to improve his writing. Don't ask me how I did it, BTW.
I know this probably comes as a surprise, or a sigh of frustration to most, because he was so unwilling to change. But atleast he's going to put it in to full throttle, none of this step by step bullshit. I'm willing to see if he changes and how he takes the advice.
Get him down to 0 words, and I'll give you all the props you want.
