      You shouldn't beg. It's not classy.

      If you really want viewers try make the chapters at least 15 pages long. People want a good read not a 3 page read. And also put more detailed pics in (Like in the area).
      Here are two of my Legacy blogs (Failed), so that you just get an idea of what I'm talking about.
      The Ashwood Legacy
      The African Legacy

      I'm not saying that you're supposed to do it like mine, but you can learn stuff from reading other stories and things and then learn what people like. :)

      Edit: And also begging is going to get you nowhere.

      How can I reccomend something that has been put together in 20-30 seconds and shows no obvious signs of hard work considering there is only 3 pages. :|

      Ahah, why don't you put in some good old fashioned hard work. Then I will reccomend it.

      Why do you need the recomendations? I'm sure it's more of a want than a need. I agree with WizardOfSmoz, put some hard work into it and then recomendations will come flying.

      Hard work into 3 pages? That's not very believable :?. Next excuse?

      Okay, look, I'm really sorry if I'm acting like a real b*tch now, because I know I am. And intro must not be three pages long or even fifty pages long. I would say for an intro, make at least 10-15 pages.

      Edit: And also, why do you NEED the recomendations, will you die if you don't get them?

      Edited again: 3 pages isn't enough for the reader to go on.

      Ok honey I'm not going to reccomend it when I don't even know what the future plot might be like. 3 pages doesn't give me a lot to work with so I'm not going to rec it just because you want me too.

      Well.... its short and it doesn't really give us much to go on. Try reading other legacies to get a feel for what people like to read. If you put a little more effort into it people would have a reason to rec it.

      Just saying...intros are supposed to give information on the story that you are going to write. I got nothing from that. Sorry, but you didn't get my recommendation!

      Try asking for feedback. Not reccomendations.

      Harthouse - I've read everything you've written and you need to hear a few things. You definitely shouldn't be giving out your age, your mom's e-mail address and your phone number! That's definitely not safe to do and can get you in a lot of trouble.

      Your stories don't get recommendations because they're really short, disjointed and the spelling and grammar isn't as good as it should and could be. It's hard to get invested in a story when it's barely a couple pages, there's no plot, the pictures and the captions don't go well together, etc.

      Maybe you could try writing down ideas you have for your stories and plan out what you're going to say in each slide. Getting close ups of your Sims is a good idea so we can see their reactions to things, if you're going to take us on a tour of the house describe what we're seeing and why you chose what you did for example.

      Keep working on the writing - I know you'll get better in time. :)
