    There is no bashing on my part, you're supposed to have realized that its how Harry views the girls in Hogwarts. I have only actually shown one female acting in the way in which Harry 'despises', which goes to show to you something about his character - he's overly critical and harsh.

    Also, I don't understand how people think being a jerk is perfect. Yes, he may be 'too' super for some, I know this, I said as much in the first chapter, but don't go saying he's perfect. In fact, given his personality, that couldn't be further from the truth. He also has no social life, and no real hobbies that don't relate to his studies. This thing with Fleur is the closest he's every come to acting like a normal teenager, I think.

    In the end, it's just how you interpret it.

    I have been debating about posting again in this topic.

    The last time I was here, I posted about "Jam Sessions" making me cringe.
    I finally set down and started to read this story about two weeks ago. I finally finished reading today (stupid exams).

    For what it is worth, I must say that I enjoyed reading this story, and can't wait for the next update. Congratulations, you have won me over. I really do want to thank you for proving me wrong. Best of luck and I hope to see an update soon...

    I have been following your story for some time now. I was wondering, if you will change the prophecy (interpret it differently) or will you allow Longbottom and Harry to work together.

    With the current flow of story, I don't see both of them co-operating in future.

    Also are you updating today?

    Did he say which Saturday? (Couldn't resist).

    Better to let him update when he's satisfied with the chapter as opposed to hassle him to keep a deadline. You'll get a better product that way.

    [Edit: 250th post, woo! Death Eater!]

    Damn, though there was an update, Joe said it was a Saturday, I presume it’s this one!!

    Yeah I was wondering that to Imperious. I mean face it Longbottom is a fat squib piece of shit, and how the fuck is he going to kill Voldermort, unless Voldermort turns into a muggle, Longbottom has no chance in hell, even a muggle Voldermort probably kick his ass. Unless he gets some power boost, but that’s just wrong, we don't need to inflate his ego anymore than it’s already is.

    I mean a change in prophecy could mean that Harry could off Voldermort, cause I cant see Harry working with Longbottom, we all seen Harry patience, Harry would likely kill the fat shit than wait for Longbottom to grasp the simplest magical theory and spells.

    From what I have seen on his character so far, his a lazy shit, thinks of quidditch, eating, no real magical potential, I mean the most damage Longbottom could do to Voldermort is bore him to death on how great he is, His the BWL, Everyone bow down to him and so on.

    And Dumbledore doesn't seem to hold Longbottom in high esteem, to me it looks like Dumbledore thinks Longbottom is a immature idiot, If I was Dumbledore I be worried, I mean Fat ass Longbottom going to save the world from Voldermort, you might as take you chance and join Voldemort if you expect that lump of ass to save you.

    I know it’s a bit over the top, but its one of those questions that’s been bugging me to no end, just releasing a bit of frustration, lol.

    For the sake of my eyes please learn how to use spellcheck? The Neville in this story is basically just an inverted picture of Malfoy in this one....

    Hey korisovra, when it comes to like forums, I dont bother with spelling, as long its readable, then its ok, I try to check as best of my abilites, like I said English is like my second language. I never bothered before but as a member of DLP, I try take care of it as best of my abilites.

    For all those that are anxious, he specifically said that it was in Australian time, so you have to take that into account.

    Hey thanks, I was thinking what AU meant, going to check how the Australian time zone is so I can work out what time the update will come in the UK.

    Stop asking fucking update questions. Just don't.

    @Mumihp: That ESL stuff is a weak excuse, since you basically admitted that you don't care how you sound when writing in a forum - implying that you aren't a dumbass, just lazy. Either take your time or say less, because no one wants to re-read lines of your posts just to make sure you're understood. But hey, if you want to be selfish about it, then think of going through the effort of making legible posts as insurance from other members putting you on their ignore list - which would make them miss out on your important contributions to various topics.

    I would have to agree completely with Blaise concerning the issue of Joe's updates. His personality regarding fanfiction is treading dangerously close to what I would describe as Master Eldryn Syndrome... Harass this guy enough and he will end the story and stop writing just to stick it to us and show us who is boss. :eek:

    Look I’m not making excuses, plus does posting messages have to be perfect, it’s not like I’m posting a story or an essay. I’m posting a simple message, Christ what is it with you bitching. In this particular thread, when not talking about spellings or grammars of users who post, were talking about the actual story. And are your trying to start a fight or something, if I was fucking lazy then my post will consist of a couple of words, lots of spelling mistake and grammar, I spent time writing that post, and I checked it 3 times.

    You should have realised by now that most people on the forum will bitch about grammar and spelling.
