This is all valid, and I just want to apologize for it. I'm sure no one cares, but I'm trying to be less socially awkward and annoying. It's a long process, and I can fully understand why people unfriend me and find me annoying on Plurk. I'm trying to be less clingy and to make much fewer comments on my friends' plurks, since I do realize it's clingy as hell and annoying, and just because my friends are nice enough not to mention it to me/are used to it doesn't mean everyone else should be. the diabetes stuff was and is incredibly stupid and I'm trying very hard to not post about it/take better care of it.
As for mentions of my family, I do apologize, and will try to keep that stuff off of plurk. I started using Plurk long before I decided to try RP and since the people there were my friends irl, it wasn't such a big deal, although they were most likely annoyed/frustrated as well. But I'm trying. I don't WANT to be annoying, and am taking steps to correct it. I wish it could be a faster process because I truly hate knowing that I annoy and make people uncomfortable.
My RPing is probably very bad, and I readily admit that. I'm trying to get better, but may (and probably should) just end up dropping most if not all my characters, since I can't seem to get it right. That's not meant to be a trigger finger reaction, but if I'm getting it this wrong after almost 6 months it's probably not a good idea to stay in the hobby and make people play when I'm OOC. I'd like to see if I can't improve, but if I can't, yeah, it's time to let it go. I decided to try it on a whim in the first place, and it's been fun, but if I'm OOC and continue to be then there's no point in staying.
Honestly, I'm sorry you got so fed up. I don't set out to be annoying or awkward, and I'm working to correct it. Thank you for laying this stuff out in a way that I can take it and try to improve upon it.
