Man, what’s the point to be a member of a forum and don’t believe in anything that other people write? How about you open a forum that only you’re a member? [SIZE=“1”]Anyway, i don’t think that you would believe yourself. Dammit. [/SIZE] ---

> [@Captain\_Amazing](#): > > I don’t think it’s particularly strange. I think it’s part of creating art. The old word for it was “enthusiasm” or “inspiration”, and a lot of ancient peoples thought it came from god or the gods. Sometimes, when you’re creating, when you’re writing or drawing or speaking or whatever, what to do just comes to you. It seems totally outside of your control…the idea just seems to pop into your head. It’s part of the creative process. Ok, i get what you said. Thanks for the answer. ---

Dammit. > [/SIZE] What’s the point of posing as a 13 year old or a Brazilian when you write like neither? If we are to be truly entertained by your trolling you have to do a better job of it. Next time you show up try to do a little bit better research before creating a character. This one has too many obvious tells. ---

Next time you show up try to do a little bit better research before creating a character. This one has too many obvious tells. Mann, how a brazilian should write in english? Or about what? You are saying that because i’m not talking about naked womans, carnival, olodum, capirinha, Lula or things like that? I don’t know, it sounds a little prejudiced. But tell me how a brazilian should write. I’m gonna teach my people to write like you want us to write. ---

Your thread has ended up in the barbeque pit. I suggest you cut your losses and spend some time reading the forum and learn how to prepare a more sensible opening post if you want a serious discussion of your topics. ---
