I personaly don't like Crime_Thriller but I do like his idea to put a serious comic on out comic site and I want to do it but don't want to mess-up my account.
I been thinking of starting a serious drama here and to try to make it good.

But I'll have to get a new accounta nd I'm not sure if thats against the rules here...is it?

If you can pull it off, go for it.

As for having multiple accounts, there's no rule against it. AccentuateNegative and choadwarrior are the same person. RandomComicLayoutGuy and edoggydog are the same person. I'm not positive, but my sources indicate that Scyess and not_scyess are the same person.

Aside from your occasional grammar/spelling mishap, you are a fairly good writer. fatguy667's been trying to make a serious superhero comic here, but you will find, as he did, that the images don't always lend themselves to non-comical pursuits. I suggest an ongoing drama/comedy, or dramedy. That way you can acheive the one goal without having to work around the comedic aspect of the images themselves.

I was just been thinking that, and I thank you for that compliement.
I've been a writor for a long time and I'm glad I can try to put it to use lol

I think a dramedy would be good because I love shows like Rescue Me,The Sheild, Starved(FAVORITE!),and House.

If this works well I hope you all can join me in a leap of a dramedy.
Plus...We need to get on Answers.com because they have other crappy sites on there and no us?Those pricks.

Pretty sure they're not, actually. Scyess has dissproved this many a time.

Alternate accounts are for people with something to hide.

I've hated the word "dramedy" ever since it was created for "The Days And Nights Of Molly Dodd", which was shit, and was used to describe "Ally McBeal", which was also shit, and other shows that were also shit.

I also hated it when ARACHNEPHOBIA came out and was described as a "thrillomedy." What would they call a combination love story and comedy? A "lovomity'"?

Not knocking your idea--just please don't call it a "dramedy", because that word makes me want to vomit.

"Rom-com".

While "dramedy" is a crap word, it's not for the reasons you cite, biped. The motion picture industry is filled with many such pormanteaux: mockumentary, japanimation and biopic just to name a few. "Dramedy" is crap because it sounds like something a bunch of weepy, pushing-forty surburbanite house fraus will watch in between bitching out their beleaguered, effeminite husbands.

Also, "comedy" is an apt enough term. "Comedy" will always utilize "dramatic" structure (suspense, reversal, surprise, et cetera) if it is to be done right. Comedy is just a branch of drama, and therefore the term is superfluous.

But what do you make of "pornomedy", my good friend biped?

I was thinking the same thing, but couldn't be bothered to post about it.

"Comedy" is an apt enough term for porn.

I've thought of starting an alternate account. But then I thought, "Why?" And I kinda got stuck on that.

By the rule of double-negation, Scyess is not-not-Scyess.
