Guys, I need to present an issue that many of you may be unaware of. Many personal issues and RL situations are souring my moods on and off and its affecting how efficiently I get posts out. I'm very serious and have my own form of a shitty past to deal with. I feel like I can barely keep up with my characters and bring them out to their full potential because we can only post so much given our RL demands.
I look at the other threads people make, and in comparison to mine, I realize I'm lucky to get one or two people to join my threads, whereas others may have 4 join or even more... There are some days where I feel like the only character of mine worth keeping is Cira. Jade hasn't met Prowl yet, KITT hasn't interacted with Aura much (its not a fault of everyone but its taking forever), other plans are still pending....I feel like an extra wheel some days, even if two of three of my canons are important. Thus, I question my RPing skills.
I'm trying to determine who is liked enough to keep, and I need y'alls help deciding that, canons and FLAG vehicles included. I've been down a lot lately though trying to hide it for multiple reasons, and its not just because I feel like my skill is stagnating on this site. My confidence is shaken in multiple ways right now. I'm crying out for help and I'm not sure how I can get it. I just wish I could see happier, brighter days, but unfortunately, the only thing that's keeping me going is the need to get through school in hopes to have a decent life style some day.
I should be studying right now, but I'm having trouble getting various thoughts out of my head, and this issue obviously isn't the only thing on my mind...

Oo I like all your chars, and I'm more than willing to have threads for them to interact in. I'm flexible, and I'm bored as all hell half the time. I can wait for you to get the time to post. Hell, I've got so many chars, I really need to get them involved in a bunch of places.
I'm willing to work with you. Just lemme know what stuff you'd like done!

You have my sympathies, Jett, I was feeling not dissimilar thoughts myself not that many nights ago.
It's really to see how much fun others are having when your not. I hope you get your RL problems under control soon.

Definitely keep Ratchet, Cira, Lennox, KI3T, and Interceptor. I also like Twister, Blackout, Tarnish, Goliath, and your two TO's, and I think we have a thing getting ready to go for Tarnish with the Cons at this point. Plus we have that plan set up with Soundwave that includes Jade and Kristine, though I think you mentioned the possibility of Kristine ending up dying when she hits her first Transformation or ending up going through a fatal cascade failure (being a prototype artificial TO, that's not an unrealistic thing either). I know we talked about a temporary arrangement, but if you need, I can take KARR permanently if that would help. Jo seems peripheral, but the humans need a medic.
I tend to see Ratchet, Cira, Lennox, KI3T, Interceptor, and Twister as your core group, with Blackout, Tarnish, Goliath, Richard, Jade, and Kristine as secondary but still important characters. The rest seem to be more peripheral, though I can't wait to see how "The Crushers" (trine of ground based Decepticon shock troops/demolition crew) play out. We need more cons anyways and those three would stay together, likely all in the same threads.
I hope that helps you out some, hon. **hugs**

I think I agree with you there, Katt, the most active ones show through my posts and my timeliness in posting with them. Some recent ones were made for fun or brought about by random surges of inspiration like Roadrage, Laserbeak, Jason, and Blackfire, the rest I see as being needed in some way. Honestly, I'm not sure if I could deal with dropping any particular one due to the way you described them.
Chasm, I'm glad you don't have a huge problem with most of my characters, and I'll keep that in mind and will let you know if I think of any new ideas. Thus far I'm enjoying Scalewing and Blackfire's interactions. And I'm also having fun posting with Iro's char Maggie.
And Dain, thanks for the support, tis appreciated.
I'm not going anywhere guys, and I apologize for my depressing rant. It's just some days I really feel the pressure weigh down on me...
This week has been emotionally overwhelming, but I'm trying my best to get over it so I can keep up with college and work with out being an emotional mess. Thus far I only had about a day and a half of "shittyness", so I hope I can regain some emotional stability. In turn, my posting speed should go up a little (as long as I get enough sleep). I always try to find time to post when I can.

Sorry for such late input, but better late than never, right?
Alright, so I agree completely with Katt. I know what it's like to have too many characters you don't want to post with them, and inspiration for certain characters gets annoying. It leads you to create characters, and you don't want to get rid of them, but at the same time, you can't keep them, and so they just sit around.
I hope you get your real life problems worked out quickly, because we miss an active Jetta.

Thanks Blitzy, no worries about the late response. I'm glad you agree with Katt. I want to stay active, I really do. I guess the fear that my posts aren't as good as they could be is just all in my head, at least I hope so. I'll try not to keep ya'll waiting too long with posting, but the days fly by much faster now . The fact that you, and others seem to miss me being more active relieves me quite a bit :3.
