Other than the Terms and Conditions of the site, there are specific guidelines when it comes to the library. To make sure using this forum is a great experience for everyone, please follow these rules:
(1) Be respectful
Remain kind, respectful, and constructive to others; insults are not tolerated.
(2) Post Correctly
Ensure that your posts are in the right category. For example, do not post novels in the short story category.
(3) Provide Content Warnings
Content that deals with sensitive topics are only permitted if content warnings are provided. A clear list of content warning must be provided at the beginning of the post. A reference list can be found here.
Content warnings must be either included at the start of every applicable post, and/or at the start of a thread, clarifying what the labels are for, such as: [CW: alcoholism, violence].
We prohibit NSFW & NSFL Content. Not Safe For Work (NSFW) content means explicit pornographic or inappropriate content. Not Safe For Life (NSFL) content means explicit disturbing, horrifying, or extreme gore content. Within your stories, only brief sexual content is permitted, as long as it is vague and non-explicit. Brief depictions of gore or otherwise disturbing content is also permitted. However, for both, you must include content warnings, such as: [CW: mentions of sexual activity].
(4) Do Not Spam
Do not spam stories, chapters, posts, or threads.
(5) Advertise With Limitations
Within your posts, you may include links to other platforms that contain your story, but only if you share said story in the forum as well. Do not post otherwise unsolicited promotional links.
Non-promotional links are allowed, as long as they are appropriate, safe, and relative to the story (such as a Youtube music video that applies to the scene).
Moderation Policy
Violations of forum rules will lead to moderation action taken, which can include deletion of posts, deletion of threads, closing of comments, and banning of accounts. Violations in the Discord server will also lead to forum posting rights taken away. Please follow the rules to prevent moderation action.
