hello Gang of Five! allow me to introduce myself:
my user name is Tails77, im a teen living somwhere in western PA and I have been a fan of LBT since I was little. I consider myself a geek/nerd hybrid with a love of all kinds of lore and pop culture.
my general intrests are: LBT (obiviously), video games (of all kinds), movies, history, and various table top games. LBT has helped me through a lot of tough times, im bipolar and autistic so sometimes I "hulk out" but im usually very gentle and freindly, you have this series to thank for that! LBT set up a lot of my beliefs and so I value it as the most trasured thing in my life.

im going to set up an "ask me" thing and I'll be checking it every day though the holidays, feel free to ask me anything! :)
I'll find something better to put here eventually..

Why hello there! It's nice to see that LBT has influenced much on your life. Welcome to the Gang of Five, man! :D
Would it be possible for swimmers and flyers to get more love around here? Both figuratively… and literally. ♥







That one guy who writes LBT fanfiction and accidentally makes them five times longer than he'd originally intended.

thanks!
... I just have one question about this sight...
I understand the need to ask someone if you can use their OC, but hat about larger copyrighted works?
(example: my imagination uses the character Tails from the Sonic franchise who, in my wild imagination, is a SPARTAN 5 from the Halo series, if I wanted post a fanfiction involving that would I have to go to the companies that own those materials and ask to use them?)
 
I'll find something better to put here eventually..

no. fanfiction does not require person to get permission to use copyrighted works. it is after all fan fiction. your story would go into the random roleplay section, as it involves characters other than Land before Time characters.

even if it is just a fanfiction and not a roleplay?

thanks for all the positive welcomes by the way!

Welcome! There’s also the Written Word section under “ The Arts” Tab, which might also be a good fit for your non-lbt fanfic.

thanks! I was simply confused because I have seen the roleplays and I have no intention of joining any of those any time soon (maybe when I work up the courage)

just one more question, does the rest of everything said apply to the story even if it does have LBT characters (because while there IS a lot non-LBT related stuff the characters ARE there)

Welcome!  :wave :wave

Western PA isn't too far from me depending on where you are. I'm over the border in NY.

As long as the story contains LBT elements (thus making it a crossover between LBT and other universe(s) ) you can post them as a LBT fanfiction. :)

We do not separate pure LBT stories from those containing more or less "cultural contamination" (as rhombus would put it :D ) though if LBT is not the major element some people might not be interested in reading unless they like the other universe(s) too.

Either way, feel free to post whatever you've got :DD
