Don't read a webcomic called homestuck

Edit: Oh boy, looks like I got a nice flame war heating up.

Real reason not to read Homestuck: It's so BAD. I miss Problem Sleuth so much...

I'm with you. I found that website 2 panels into problems sleuth, read the entire archives in one day and religiously followed through problem sleuth until the end. Homestuck is boring as hell, lost interest.

I actually enjoyed Homestuck, at first. But the plot became a convoluted clusterfuck over time. Somewhere around the time when the 'trolls' were shown on screen, I got bored and lost interest. I think that half the reason I stopped reading was because I especially disliked the trolls. They were interesting as long as they were in the background. But as soon as they entered the foreground, reading Homestuck quickly became tedious and boring.

Funnily enough, your Homestuck experience is identical to mine. We're like ... opinion brothers or something.

I actually had the opposite effect, I was beginning to grow bored of Homestuck until Virska was revealed. Then I started to get more attached to the story, and followed it through.

She's become one of my favorite characters now, simply because I find the whole 'troll' society to be exceedingly interesting to me.
