Fanon Etiquette, Rules, and Guidelines

Here's just a few guidelines to post your fan fiction by. If you don't follow these rules, you may be suspended from posting in the Fan Fiction board, or just banned, period.

You don't want that to happen.

So, first, be sure to check up on typical etiquette:

1. Spell check all stories/poetry/works. You surely won't be getting any writer's notice if your sentences don't end in proper punctuation, or if you use typical Internet abbreviations or slang... (IE: LOL, OMG, WTF) If you keep it up, you'll be considered a troll and be suspended from the Fan Fiction board,
2. Respect your reviews or comments. Not everyone shares your high and mighty view of your story; Instead of feeling like your story just got raped, take it in the ass and be sure to incorporate your feedback, or take your problems and fix them.
3. Everyone here is just learning and sharing their writing, or trying to get up in the literary world. Repect everyone else's wishes, and lend them a hand. A review would be wonderful when reading their story, to give them proper courage.
4. Use proper context. Don't make your story title in all capital letters, or else it'll be considered trolling and you'll be hit with a suspension notice.

Now, entries that are not allowed:

1. Bloopers, polls, previews, stuff like that. Nothing but stories, poetry, full bodied literature.
2. One or two liners.
3. Any form of interactive stories: no "Choose Your Own Adventure" or second-person/you based stories. You get the idea, I hope?
4. Anything about non-fictional people, like actors or musicians. Historical figures are fine.

Get the idea? Good. Now, go out there and post!
