If you look, I kept the start point where you had it. I increased the end point for the break, so there'd be some overlap, and you guys would be more able to pick and choose. As I've not created the weapons with your names on 'em yet, I can easily put it where you'd suggested, and still have the end point where I have it.

At this point, your disclaimer is your best protection. The thing is, this treaty is still very much in the works, and is not, in fact, in place yet. There are some organizations which are fighting against this, of course. EFF being a major one, of course. Currently, the intellectual property suits have been targeting more for video and music than anything. Copyright Watch is a good resource for finding what the most current copyright laws are, and they are working at making it a world wide repository of those laws as a resource, so that one knows what the laws are in different countries. Where this would affect any given site, is that where it is hosted, are the laws which are applied. Chilling Effects has a FAQ up regarding fanfiction specifically. I would expect if the treaty every did get signed in to law, and fanfiction archives were to be targeted, it could cause us a host of problems. But that's speculative at BEST right now. Until this thing is hammered out and passed, we have no way of knowing how it will affect this site, the users, or anything. Nor do we have any real well to tell what, if any, courses of action will be available. All any of us can do at this point is wait and see what exactly they come up with for the final treaty, and which countries end up signing it in to law.

Short answer - NO As with anything, there are some exceptions to this. Generally speaking, those are the published authors we have here, who wish to experiment and DON'T want that associated with their normal writing. That is the most common exception. Should you feel the need to have more than one login, you need to contact an admin or moderator, explain your reasons why, and then you'll be told yes or no. Some common occurrences of multiple memberships - I can't access my account In this for instance, don't create a new account, CONTACT someone. Once you can show you do belong to the account in question, your login information will be provided to you. I wanted to separate certain characters within my stories, with a new profile These are subject to immediate deletion. As often, there is double uploading as well. Aside from that, it's not a sufficient reason to create another login. I am writing with someone else and we both need access to the account This is generally allowed. However, you DO need to inform the moderator team of this, so you're not accidentally deleted as a duplicate.

AN chapters deleted

Not a problem.

In the drop down menu bar across the top, select Author Panel. This is your user control panel, or user cp. While in your cp, select the subdomain you wish to publish TO, using the drop down menu located to the left as you look at your screen. Click go. Then, you click Add Story. Once you do this, you'll see a drop down list for category, and then subcategory (once the category itself is chosen). Follow the prompts from there.

Point breaks for weapons.. 13,501 to 15000 Seawolf 14001 to 16000 Los Angeles 14501 to 16500 Virginia 15501 to 17000 Ohio 16001 to 18000 Benjamin Franklin What I'd like next is for you guys to pick an image and send it to me, that is unique to each of you, and ties in the game. Point break for that will be 18001 to 20000

look at chapter 3 of this story in the tables to verify whether or not it's corrupted

First of all, where this was initially posted was in the FAQ request forum. That is for FAQ requests only. I've moved this to the appropriate forum. You'll notice a pinned topic in this forum for category requests. Please follow the instructions.

Nope, this works. Thanks for following directions. It's GREATLY appreciated.

Worked something out, check your email pls.

If it doesn't work, email or pm me. I'll look up the information for you.

Archive profile Now, it really doesn't take a genius to figure out just WHY the hell the archive has pair specific categories. You don't like a pairing, don't READ it. Don't click the category name and even look at 'em, right? Simple, yes? One would think so. Apparently, this one does NOT. Not only that, she's "willing to read it anyway" IF the writer rewrites their story to HER specifications. uhhh....I don't THINK so. Anyway, this started last year. This person decided to harass various authors who wrote in different pair categories that she doesn't like. As I said earlier, they're all IN the proper pair category. So, it's plenty obvious this person decided to go in to areas strictly to harass other users. Because I have many, many screens of the abuse, I'm not going to post them all. Suffice it to say, I DO have them. The latest incident was just this morning. 26 reviews to one story, in an hour. Because they were being deleted by the user who's story it was. 26 reviews in one hour, to one story, constitutes spamming. So here we go, starting with some of the stuff reported to us, starting last year, in November. As you can see, that's 4 different users in the space of a week. Mind you, only 1 of the reviews were reported. The rest were found by looking at the review boards, and searching the database direct. At that point, this person was warned, that if she persisted, she would be deleted. So, she laid off this for awhile. Guess she thought we forgot and wouldn't monitor her or something. So, all was quiet for a long time. Then, a couple days ago, she started up with another person. Started this leaving reviews, getting angry because they were deleted, and leaving more. then we get to the spamming portion of the evening... I won't put up the 26 or so other screens I have. It's not necessary. Suffice it to say, this person is not welcome back. Not ever. You don't spam authors. You don't go in to categories specifically for that reason. Which is EXACTLY what this person did.

I deleted all but the above two, which I need to look at a little harder for obvious reasons on the one.

There is no way to track it or prevent it, as the function is completely anonymous

toasted..

using the story rate function, or the review boards?

When we get there for sorting, yes, if they remain with no stories, or not enough stories, they will be deleted.

Interestingly enough, quality of writing doesn't necessarily denote age. If it did, it'd make life much simpler. Updated stats...through 3/20/10 Total looked at - 1218 Breakdown Accounts taken over (4+ returns) - 12 Users posting for minor, or allowing minors to use their accounts to post - 9 Minors who've been deleted and have since turned 18 - 70 Old minors (pre-existing before current mod staff) - 203 Returning minors - 34 No results found, inconclusive - 257 Confirmed, one time deletion - 384 Confirmed as 18 or older - 249

The profile modifications for this sort of thing are not written by me. I can't write to save my life, so I enlisted the aid of the rest of the mods to give me stuff to work with. As to the review that was deleted, I'd bet that was Grizzlepot who deleted it, as it was a valid accusation. The authors have control of what stays in their review boards, and can delete from them at will.

And now for something completely different... Here we have a user who knowingly allowed a minor (XoXgaaraXoX) to post here using her profile, before she was old enough to do so. That would be this one.. This is the old minor... Needless to say, neither one is ever welcome back. You don't let someone under 18 use your account for posting. You don't then come in as an adult and say that you DID. It gets you deleted. PERIOD.

oooookay.... Now that I've finished losing a lung from laughing, me being me, and ever curious, thought I'd see if there was actual research for this. Not surprisingly, there is. Testicular hyperthermia Journal of Andrology BioOne Testicular hypothermia PubMed.gov The Royal Society of Medicine European Surgical Research and now for cooling devices....who'da thunk they made radiators for balls? Testicular Hypothermia Device Male Contraceptive Device

Well, she's obviously wrong, because she is Hall of Shamed. FYI, I don't Hall of Shame anyone without hard proof, that is easily seen. So, you can look at the screens and compare, and see where she copied WORD FOR WORD, in several different places in her story, from several different places in the original novel.
