This statement could not have been more wrong. Your definition of a rhyme scheme is correct BUT you being presmably blinded by ignorance failed to see what I said. Yes, multies are parts of rhymes and they effect the outcome of a rhyme scheme, but they do not wholey make up the scheme.
Also, you are wrong to think saying "I only use multies when needed" is out of place. See, this is an amateur thought process. You are under the presumption that "Multies make everything sound better". In some cases this is correct; Multies can add to the aesthetics of a piece; but in most cases the over-use of multies actually negatively effects a piece. This is where amateur writers differ from veteran writers. I, myself, hate seeing or hearing songs littered with nonsensical, overly exaggerated, forced multies. So ending every line with a multie does not always "compliment the flow". Infact, a lot of times it hinders the flow. This is why multies are best used as transitions and inners. They sound better if used this way and they compliment the flow a lot more. Thus, that is how they are used most of the time in my writings.
First of all, I never said they wholly make up the scheme. I said I didn't like your rhyme scheme because it was lacking in multies. This means that I didn't like your rhyme scheme because a part of the rhyme scheme wasn't something that I liked. So my statement isn't wrong, and I'm far from being ignorant.
And you're wrong in thinking that only amateurs use multies in every line. If you see your self as a veteran writer, OK, good for you. That doesn't mean that everybody else who has a slightly different opinion than you is an amateur writer. It depends on the preference of the writer, but in most cases multies do make the flow sound better. Using a lot of multies doesn't mean that they are forced. But please, don't call people who use a lot of multies amateurs because you think that the way you use them sounds better. Music is about preference, we can agree if something sounds good, but if you prefer some sounds over others, well, that's taste. Same case when it comes down to writing. If you prefer your usage of multies, so be it.
