This 기사 is listed as guide. Do 당신 know why? Because this is a guide on how to 게시하기 your fanfiction. Because something went off and we have half-a-million Son of Neptune fanfiction, and the other million being others. And it's great. It honnestly is. But before the 로스트 hero came out, we were a very small club and we all knew the active members 의해 name really! We also had rules about the spot's étiquette and of course, we have rules here about fanfiction.

I really want these rules to be respected, call it a pet peeves if 당신 must. And I dont think 당신 all can find that 기사 burried under everything, so I copy pasted the 기사 here.

Now that the rules have re-surfaced, I'll be giving warnings. There is one fanfic that was 게시됨 in 기사 form [i]before[i] the rules came out, called "Immortal Links", its an exception, there are no others. Yuo must apply to these rules.


CREDIT CAN IN NO CIRCUMSTANCE GO TO ME, AMPHITRITE WROTE THE ARTICLE, FROM NOW ON THE WORDS ARE HERS


We seem to have tons of 팬 Fic. on the way, just one 더 많이 way we are growing as a community. But, as a community, there are things we have to do to keep our spot clean. So, there has to be some rules for our latest feature. Please, if 당신 are 글쓰기 a 팬 fic., abide 의해 these rules!

1. Chapter stories should go in the forum. Short stories (one chapter stories/one shots) go in the articles. It is annoying having to 검색 out 기사 to find the specific chapter 당신 are looking for. 의해 keeping chapter stories in a specific thread it is less confusing, less troubling, and a whole lot easier for people to navigate and find the chapters they are looking for.

2. Please use proper grammar/spelling. Nothing can bring 당신 out of a story 더 많이 than trying to understand what the author is saying. If 당신 would like someone to review your piece for 당신 to make sure it is virtually mistake free, 또는 당신 just want someone to let 당신 know if it sounds good, send me a PM.

3.NO LEMONS! No one wants to read a story about nothing but doing the dirty, so please save your lemons for another site. If Lemons are 게시됨 they will be reported. 당신 have been warned.

4. Do not abandon your stories. I look at stories like children, abandoning them is wrong, and it is annoying to get into a story and never get to finish it because someone got lazy 또는 bored. If 당신 don't plan on finishing your story, then don't 게시하기 it.

5. Please put a rating on your story. We never know who is 읽기 our stories. We wouldn't want a little kid 읽기 something we wouldn't want Grandma to see, would we? Please use the rating system below:

YC- suitable for kids age 5 and up (No violence, bad language, 또는 adult themes.)

C-suitable for age 10 and up (Mild violence, no bad language and no adult themes.)

YA-suitable for age 13 and up (May contain violence, and some bad language)

T-suitable for 15 and up (May contain violence, bad language, and some adult themes)

M-suitable for 17 and up (May contain violence, bad language, and adult themes)


6.Please use an informational form. Although creativity cannot be contained and is sometimes sloppy, please use a proper form for the informational part of your story (the part that lets everyone know what your story is about and all that jazz.) Please use the form given below. (This does not pertain to short stories, please see the form below the first one.)

7. No bullying. This really pertains to people who 코멘트 on your story. If 당신 코멘트 on a story, please be nice, and if 당신 insist on critisism make it constructive. If 당신 don't have anything good to say, don't say it at all! Violators will be reported!

8. Let us know when 당신 게시하기 a story 또는 a chapter! Go to the 벽 and post a brief message to get the news out that your story is up! Don't be obnoxious about it though, don't spam 또는 anything, one message will do it.

9. HAVE FUN! Your story is just that, yours. The whole point of 팬 fic (in my opinion) is to have fun and get all those crazy thoughts out of your head. Don't let anyone push 당신 around. 당신 do not have to accept requests, 당신 do not have a deadline for publishing, and there are certainly no limitations (other than the ones above) on your story. If someone is trying to tell 당신 anything different, 신고 them 또는 let me know.


Ratings
Although nothing makes an author feel greater than having someone tell them what they like about a story, they still want to know how well the story was recieved 의해 everybody. That's where ratings come in. 당신 know how to rate an article, but when 당신 post a chapter fic in the forum, there is no way to rate it. I've devised a system to let the authors of chapter fics know just how much 당신 liked a piece. So, 당신 know those emotes at the bottom of the reply form at the bottom of the page? Well, they are nifty little things. So my idea is that depending on how well 당신 like a chapter in a 팬 fic 당신 choose an emote that is equated with numbers on a rating scale (1-10.) The Scale is as follows.

1-Angry (the angry face)This is the worst rating

2-Sad (Has a frown...not the crying face)

3-Hmmmm (has a half frown)

4-meh (no smile, but no frown...straight line)

5-monkey (It's a monkey...)

6-smile (The regular smiley face)

7-big smile (The face with the big ear to ear grin)

8-cool (The face with the sun glasses)

9-kiss (The face with the puckered up lips)

10-heart (Self explainitory) This is the best rating

If 당신 want to make an author feel especially happy, give them a prop. Use the 코멘트 prop, and let the author know what 당신 like!

These rules are here to make our 읽기 adventures fun, safe, and easy. I'm not trying to be mean, so please don't hurt me. If 당신 have any complaints 또는 당신 think I missed something send me a PM 또는 post it in the comments. Happy fic'ing. Go. Read. Enjoy.

당신 must apply on these rules 또는 I will personally callback Mr D (because I have 더 많이 power then Zeus, heck tshyah! ((I wish)) ) and this will be your new permenant form.

So with a little tweak of Amph's words; go. Write. Enjoy.
