Storytime Rules

[Andrew]

This part of the forum is for anyone that has stories, poems, or other written work that wants to have a place to post it and get the critiques and comments from their fellow community members.

• No Plagiarism: For more information, please look here.
  
  
• No Flaming: For more information, please look here.
  
  
• Hands Free: You have the freedom here to write just about anything that you'd like. We only ask that you try to refrain from posting anything that is explicitly pornographic. Doing so has the potential of getting your work deleted or censored by the Spriters Paradise administration.
  
  
• In Response: We here at Spriters Paradise value constructive criticism above all else when it comes to responding to work placed in the Circle of Creativity. As such, we would prefer if all posts made in this section of the forum be of at least 25 words in length and be as descriptive as possible. We are not fans of "fluff" posts that bring nothing to the table.
  
  
• Moderation Help: If you want your story thread to be locked/deleted, simply send a message to one of the Spriters Paradise administration that has power-access to this board and we can take care of that issue for you.
  
  
• Interactive Fan Fiction: iFF for short.
  
• iFF

[/color]: If you would like to start an iFF, please get in contact with a member of the Spriters Paradise administration that has power-access to this board to get permission before hand. If we agree with the story line, you must first create a SIGN-UP THREAD, (ex. [iFF Sign-Ups] <title>). In the opening post, state with of the administration granted you permission, for future reference. Afterwards, explain your idea and plot of your iFF, complete with a basic sign-up sheet for members to fill out.

[/li][li]Fan Fiction: If you decide to work with licensed characters, most of us would appreciate if you would attempt to portray the character as they were meant to be portrayed. While we won't condemn you, if might negatively reflect upon your audience.

[/li][li]OCs: Original characters are the "bread and butter" for iFFs. Before joining into a iFF, make sure that your OC fits into the setting of the iFF and that you've been given approval by the iFF creator.[/li][/ul]
Please use common sense and read these rules carefully. None of the administration wants to delete people's literary work just because they failed to abide by a simple set of rules.
