I see 4 stories for you, all in the hp subdomain. Speaking, of you're rewriting one, let me know when you're done with the old version so I can get the reviews and what not merged over to the new one.

You all remember last year, middle of September? We have reset the software and the server, to use the new domain name. There is a very SLIGHT change in url: adult-fanfiction.org is now adult-fanfiction.org You will be automatically redirected to the new domain. BEFORE LOGGING IN to ANY application (archive and forum)- Clear your cache and cookies. If you don't want to clear all your cookies, simply delete any for .adult-fanfiction.org (that is how it would appear). As always, cookie clearing does require a browser restart, and with Internet Explorer, a computer restart. Your individual logins remain the same as they were.

you're welcome! chances are, if the stories are older, I'll end up having to move 'em.

Users CAN'T delete reviews on FFN. At least not logged in ones.

y'know, one can only hope that with time and a bit of maturity, the young ones will learn that concrit is your friend.

spoiler heavy works, as it's still your original writing. The concern with this is the lifting of content from the show scripts. If you use descriptives, for example, that are EXACTLY as they are in the script, that would need cited.

That would be because she was well under 18 at the time she published it here.

Melrick, if changing the format is better for ya, go ahead and do that. However you want to structure this, you know it's fine with me.

I looked through several different things to see if I could find a reason for this. Not finding anything as a staff action.

Yep, that's exactly it. You can look through many, many buffy 'verse stories and find examples of exactly this, where an episode is rewritten, and the author then cites the source at the bottom of the chapter. Using the above as an example: Say you rewrote Chosen, the series finale for Buffy. You made it fairly different from the episode itself, but it was critical to the chapter to include some of the episode dialogue. At the bottom, you'd have something like this: *some dialogue from Chosen, Season 7, episode 144. Although the title of the episode would honestly be sufficient.

As long as you cite the dialogue, and it's an actual rewrite, that's allowable. There is plenty of that throughout the archive. What we're talking about is where someone takes a script and uses it verbatim, maybe changes the character names. No retelling of the episode from a different perspective, but just posting up the episode as their own work. The same applies to an actual "read-the-book". Those are stories where an author usually puts a sentence or two of a character saying something or another, and then copies the actual book content verbatim, as the character reading the book to someone in their story. That's obviously NOT acceptable, nor is it a new spin on the book. When I, or any other staff member, as an example; searches the text of such a story, and it comes up with 0% original content for the bulk, and links to a copy of the script in question, there is an obvious problem. We're all certainly aware that some archives actually allow this, but many more of them do not, as it is still plagiarism. Taking a story and making the majority of it a copy/paste of a script/screenplay/book, is just what it sounds like, copypasta plagiarism.

Not a disclaimer, but a citation. When you use source not your own, it needs to be cited.
