I used to do that a lot. I fixed it up though!

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

Here's an idea:

Rule:  You may not post excessive characters that causes the page to stretch.  It looks a lot better when you have no more than three exclamation points at the end of a sentence.  

Do write:  I wish Twilight Princess would come out now!!!

Don't write:  I WISH TWILIGHT PRINCESS WOULD COMEOUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit: Ack!  I need to learn to read.  It already is a rule.

These rules a fair, but you two are scaring me. :-\ Also, a good rule would be that in the Fan Works forums, the one who is writing a story can double post only if the second post is a new part of the story. Other than that, it counts as breaking the rules.

Darth Wyndisis

That sounds reasonable.  Authors should be allowed to post continuations.

Mysterious F.

Yay, then you wouldn't have to wait for someone to post on the topic to put another part of the story there. Also, if the post is a while after the author's post, shadowlink13 could lock it, and the story could never be finished unless you tell the entire thing to Jack in a PM, but then he could lose his place and would have to worry about reading it all again. Also, the double posting thing could save you from putting the entire post in one post.

MagmarFire

Yeah, really. It reduces risk, in case anything should happen that would prevent you to be able to post a large chunk of the story.



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

Yes, very useful. We should also make it so that if a Cohort or Jack delete a post of yours, you still get credit for it. If you delete your post, it doesn't count.

Zelda Veteran

yes! I need that rule! Its not easy waiting for someone to post in your fan fic! :P

Mysterious F.

Yeah, and some people are always posting on some fan fic topics whenever a new post appears there.

Jack

I added a new rule, please read, because I've seen a lot of replies counter to it and I think something must be done.
