    I often wonder about that as well. As for myself, I've posted about 4 stories on here since I first signed up last summer and have commented on countless others.

      WHO IS THIS "RANDOMJELLY?"

    If you really wanted to know, you could perhaps find out. There are various readability metrics (like Flesch-Kincaid) which can be used to analyse a block of text. You need to be looking for things like what percentage is written in a passive voice, characters per word, words per sentence, length of sentences and run-on sentence frequency, fog index, grade level for readability, amongst other things.

    I think you'd have a lot more chance finding my stories than most because readability indices of my writing often show quirks that most people don't have. I'm not abnormal, particularly; I just have a few tell-tale indicators.

    If you were interested in trying, I'd be interested in knowing the results. I'll even give you a head start and tell you that while I go long periods without posting here, I have actually posted two stories in the past week.

    I just hope my writing style isn't similar to anyone who wants to sleep with his dog, cousin, or an underage girl.

    Human curiosity, completly normal. There should be an option for those who like people to know which stories are theirs.

      Oh, and do you mean the poster, or the actual person?

    But to OP sometimes I wonder who posted the story, but what really, really puzzles me, is when stories just disappear? Like where do they go? Can the poster just delete them or something? :-S

      Yeah, they can delete the story whenever they feel.

    I don't really wonder much about the poster other than having feelings of sympathy or disgust. I do understand what you are saying though...it makes sense and I'll probably wonder in the future when reading them. Also, to clear things up, I've yet to post a question. I don't really have a problem deciphering what's normal or not and sometimes I just don't care haha.

  • It's normal, I sometimes think about that too. In case you're wondering about me, I posted the stories about people not laughing at my jokes and about liking Disco music.

    half of the time I can tell some stories (ridiculous) were posted by trash kids who have nothing to do than troll this place.

    some stories I've read same and countless times are posted by real people.

    again trolls who leaving stupid and heartless comments in the comment boxs acting as if they are funny and tough.
