Handpicking focuses more on the account than the character so in my personal opinion, it’s a better way to go about choosing new high ranks.
Don’t lose hope, just put your focus on other things such as improving your writing and having a friendly attitude everywhere c:

im giving you solid advice, you can take it if you want to, i dont really care. |
Okay...
I guess my problem is, I focus too much on the negatives (even in real life) of everything an never really the positives so I guess I should try and be a bit more open-minded...
I want to forget this ever happened now I'm truly sorry I hope we can put it behind us? I'm just afraid my chances at getting anything have been completely lowered...I don't want that to happen I hope that's not the case...I guess I never think of the consequences of things either...

No one is yelling at you and we are helping you by giving you advice. Please don’t feel like you mean nothing, this is just a roleplay site after all and you shouldn’t let it impact your feelings that much.

I know but sometimes I feel like I have to wear a fake smile all the time...
And I know this is just a site and it shouldn't be that big of a deal but I suppose a main reason why I want to get a HR is to prove that I can be more...I can achieve something...
In real life (especially recently) I get told all the time that I'm useless and can't do anything and that I try too hard and I'm desperate...I honestly just want to prove everyone wrong but do it by being myself but now I kind of feel like that's not the case and I have to be fake to get to my goals...

some of us have to wait ages to get our high rank. me? well, i waited almost three years until jingle asked me about goldenstar (then goldeneye) and he became deputy. trust me, i understand how much you want to become a high rank, i was just as excited at one point
however, a lot of responsibilities come with that, i’m not exactly sure if i’m allowed to say, but the highranks do have our own set of rules that we need to follow
trust me, if you stay friendly, and enjoy yourself on the site (it really isn’t a big deal if you don’t have a high rank, trust me) maybe it’ll come when you least expect it c: |
Okay I understand...but now I feel like I should give up because now basically EVERYONE on this site knows I'm a whiny little...drama queen...I'm certainly not gonna get a HR now

I know but I do kind of wish I knew why I wasn't chosen...or a bit of a better idea of what they're actually looking for...maybe I should make a thread and get some feedback on my characters? Just thought it would be a good idea...
