The Guide to Email Success/Conchris
From Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki
Welcome to Conchris' really crappy tips! You may know me from Other Character Email Harvax XVII, Fake Character Email Cooksar Baker OR Con_email.exe.
I have some tips to help ye [sic] get started.

Tip 1: How Long Clancy?
Okay, first made-up rule: NO 20 LINERS! They suck badly. Try comparing my Conchris Email: mission guy with Conchris Email: mis-spelling. See the difference? I thought so. Try to get 25 or maybe 30 lines.
Tip 2: It has come to our attention that you suck
Right, we got tip one out of the way. Now onto No. 2: Running Gags.
Running Gags are those that you think are funny and you re-use some other email.
Also, there are running gags to INSPIRE YOU like the Punching Cows running gag which was created by Shim Sham Sam (I think) or the JIBNEY outbreak. Make your own and don't rip off other people's running gags.
Tip 3: Personality and Character creation
To quote something I created:
'So are you ready to hit Wiki User Emails like a flaming pile of crap? I thought so. Anyway, first of all, what 'species' is your character? Human? 'Homestar'? Yoshi? Giant Brain? Giant Chicken? Robot? Anything. Next, what is your character's personality? Shy? Brave? Stupid? Smart? Cool? Nerdy? Mean? Nice? Good? Bad? Anything. Finally, does your character have a lacky? If yes, then what species? The most common is The Cheat species. It can be a robot.'
That's your character's creation. Say you are, Pie Pie. You look like Pom Pom with a Pie hat. Kinda stupid huh? Now, does your Wiki User Character have a lacky?
Other Characters on the other hand, are already created.
Just look at their page on the Knowledge Base to find out their personality and such.
Tip 4: Ready to hit OCE, FCE or WUE like a flaming pile of crap?
Okay, just follow these mini tips:
- USE GOOD GRAMMAR AND PUNCTUATION! We all cannot stress this enough.
- Use Italics (Created by using ''s) for actions like this and be sure to put actions in curly brackets { like {this}
- Never ever plever go near that 10 lines minimum.
- Follow the Transcription Standards to be sure to save your OCE, FCE or WUE from Baleetion from the Administartion Crew.
- That's all I can think of really.
Tip 5: What? It's not spelt that way?
Some words like "hey" or "his" sounds different from the word itself.
Here are a few errors some people may leave: (Where approcriate!)
- Hay -> Hey
- Appearence -> Appearance
You have to also use some contractions and such in the sentences, an example:
His day was very awful. He has said that some of it is yours but you're too stupid for his intelligence. He's also done for if he messes up his next email. There is a chance that they're going to destroy his email show. Their lackeys will own him if they get there.
Confusing? Is it? Let's try to simplify it:
His is possession. Meaning owning something. The other ones in this group is her and its.
'He's' is short for He is. Meaning that Someone is something or doing something. The others in this group is she's and it's.
Your is just possesion again, meaning that it is in your possession.
You're is short for You are.
Their is just more than one.
They're is more than one who possesses a thing.
There is just a place that is not where you are.
There you go. That's how to be very grammar friendly.
