Welcome readnsmile. We don't really have any rules here. Most of us are refugees from a forum that's run like a Police State. So that's the last thing we want here. If you have any questions, etc. feel free to fire away.

I've recently joined a whole bunch of writing forums and this is the only one where I can say cookies without causing an uproar.
Seriously though. At least for a moment.
Welcome. I'm new as well and so far I like the feed back and interaction between members. I've noticed a few harsh critiques but I figure it like this...freedom of speech lets them say what they will. There are no laws that they have to be constructive or nice.
On the other hand though. If you don't want to hear anything at all negative then I suspect that posting something on the internet isn't the right course of action.
I figure that if someone wants to bash my craft then they had better be prepared to eat some dirt.
Have fun. I usually do.

The only rules we have here are the Proboards Terms of Service, which forbid profane language or sexual content. That's about it. Too many rules and regulations are restricting for everyone, and especially those with creative ability. Many of us here are refugees from just such a site that is run like a police state. :-)

Most on the other site were fat and spat cake at me. This site they are skinny and hungry.
In my life it has been filled with testosterone and itchy bowel syndrome; not a good mix under the covers
