~Safety Procedure In Case of Massive Spammer Attack~

Everyone, as you know, there are massive rants going on right now. I'm afraid they may spread to here, because the rants are too full, and they have a plan for complete forum domination. In case of this, please do these:

1. Do NOT post on any spammer threads. This will bump them, lowering YOUR thread's chances of surviving.

2. Please bump your stories, and other authors' who may not be online. (Most of us already bumped most stories just in case)

3. Try to get a forum mod over here.

4. Anything else you can think of.

Please copy and paste this into all of your stories and others that do not have it.

4. Back up threads if necessary using MS Word.

5. Refrain from posting new threads. Best to save them until the danger passes.

6. Scan the last few pages for any stories noteworthy.

7. Anything else you can think of.

You do have a very gruesome style of writing. Twisting the arm until the bone snaps out of the arm, threatening to slowly chop his body apart and possibly eating the parts, cannibalistic natives. As I said, gruesome.

In my opinion, gruesome-ness cannot remove degrade the quality of a piece of work. Without those details, the story would be incomplete. For example, I can't just say something along the lines of 'he stabbed the man.' That could mean anything. You have no idea where the man was stabbed, how hard, or other details that could affect that. However, if I were to say 'he spun rapidly and thrusted his sword deep into the man's chest,' then you get the details of how hard, where, how fast, and how he attacked. So, basically what I'm saying is that this should not be able to degrade a story, but add depth and give the reader a better understanding of what is going on.

Exactly. The more blood = more viewers = more money = funny!

Very good, Guard. I like how you slip in the details later instead of having 3 chapters of intro. It's good. Waiting for more.

That thing with the flood of spammers seems scary, yet oddly awesome.
