  15. 2016 AFF Tales from the ChatBox Reviews

    in General

    Posted

    Several reviews from me:

    Little Red Riding Hood:
    Nice spin on the classic tale.

    Pumpkin Spice:
    Interesting…

    And now replying to DirtyAngel’s review:


    Sweater: I liked it but it made sense to me since I read Star Rebels and the spinoffs, but might be a little confusing to those who don't know the backstory. Good though, made me cry and Lizzie wanted to kick some snotty teen butts LOL, you made my girlfriend mad, thanks LOL

    Thanks for the review.  I do try to make them all generally readable w/o having to read the rest, though there will usually be some hints/nuances/tie-ins for the regular readers to appreciate :P  And yes, this isn’t Ifor at his best.

    Ohhh, some fun ones this year...except sweater, that was sooo sad :( made me cry, meanie!

    Ok, so I'm the designated review write for our little group. 

    Sweater: I liked it but it made sense to me since I read Star Rebels and the spinoffs, but might be a little confusing to those who don't know the backstory. Good though, made me cry and Lizzie wanted to kick some snotty teen butts LOL, you made my girlfriend mad, thanks LOL

    Polled: Alien politicians? Now that's scary, the human ones are bad enough LOL. 

    Trick or Treat: Tahn, this was awesome, but I thought duct tape fixed everything LOL, Gotta love Zombies :) Didn't quite get it until the breakfast scene with the eye and toast then I was like "Say what?" Made Magus read the beginning again, just gotta say ewwwwwww :)

    Pumpkin Spice: LOL, you sound like Magus "I don't want soy latte cranberry mocha carmel crap! Why can't I just get a cup of coffee?" Now he's like, "Why don't you smell like apple pie?" Thanks Bronx :P Had us fooled too, we thought she was an alien after reading polled LOL

  20. So this could be worrying...

    Censorship is a blunt tool, wielded for different reasons, with stifling unwanted intents/desires/thoughts from the populace being a desired outcome.  Dictators will dissuade rebellion/revolt/disloyalty.   Clergy want you to stay faithful to their religion (and power), so dissuade blasphemous thoughts.  And parents wanting to be lazy and have the schools do their parenting for them.  And while it may have collateral damage, censorship exists because it can be effective in some situations, delaying the inevitable (and that can be good enough).

    Overall, I like AFF because it’s generally supportive of freedom in writing, and the few rules that do exist are to starve the lawyers.  Because, like you, I loathe censorship, that’s why you’ll see the topic appear in my stories from time to time.
