Once upon a time, we had a big thread called the 'Writer's Corner', which featured the literature of TH members.

It's time to remake that thread, so post just whatever literature you have. :) Poetry, short stories, chapter stories, etc.

I'll go ahead and start it off with a little story I've been working on, called Paradise.

In the year 2150, E.N.A.X., the last ecological and political government superpower in the world, is on the brink of an economical collapse. In a desperate attempt to increase revenues and rebuild it's shattered structures, the company sends out a team of researchers to plunge into the bottom of the ocean, the last mystery of the world. What they find will not only break the boundaries between this world and the next, but also send the world into a World War IV, the world vying for control over the paradise beneath the ocean. What they do not know, however, is that a paradise is not always as it seems, and the death it releases threatens all of humanity, while the bloodthirsty beaurocrats plunge deeper into it's secrets...

Ooh, great idea to revive it :)

I am just starting on a piece of work. It's a rough copy right now, but it is pretty good considering I am no writer :)

All new chapters I write will be added to this post, and also updated chapters.


So Far:

Eternal Darkness - Chapter 1 - The fall of Shinar, Updated 06/10/09



Summary

In a time of powerful kings, great battles, and noble knights, wages a war between two nations. The Knethian king declared war to Seven Empires, and raids started on the already troubled Empires. Though what bothers King Oram the Fifth is that despite his overpowering numbers, fearless soldiers, and deadly mages, the Knethians are proving a harder foe to defend against at each passing moon. Will the Seven Empires fall into the hands of this rising power, or will the mystery unfold just in time to save the shattered Empires?

I have a folder called Writer's Corner! :eek:

Anyways, I've been thinking about posting this for a long time... already on GH. :rolleyes:

Pinning doesn't sound bad, if it gets a bit more active, not in terms of discussion but people posting about their work. I would, but I am not much of a writer. Sometime I will get around to chapter 2 :)

As for a forum, it doesn't really fit for TheHelper. If the thread doesn't get much discussion, a forum will have little chance to.

Though GothsHigh has a very good Writing forum, also Role Playing, Poetry, Book Discussion, Reviews and more. If you are looking for forums for such things, you should visit it.


Well, I will defiantly post when I get chapter 2. Until then, have a nice day!

This is already up on GH. Though it does contain self-mutilation, so if that is something that you don't want to read about, this story isn't for you :).

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Actually I was just playing with having some kind of mention of the food forum and recipes on the main page to test and see if it would engage some of those people to post something. It is just weird to get so much traffic and no engagement
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    Latest Recipe is Garlic Parmesan Chicken https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-garlic-parmesan-chicken.193575/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
