The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Looking for a Pre-Reader

Hello!

As a few of you know, I'm trying to get back into writing fics here, but while my writing does seem to be getting better as I go, I personally don't feel it's at the level it once was. With that in mind, would anyone mind helping me out as (even a part-time) pre-reader? I'd certainly appreciate it, and I can return the favor (though if my self-criticisms are any indication, I can be brutally honest at times). If anyone's interested, let me know!

What do you mean by "pre-reader"?

I suppose my lingo's a bit off as well. Sorry  :confused

What I mean by "pre-reader" is an editor, basically. Someone who looks at chapters, or at least parts of chapters, before I post them. Obviously that's asking quite a bit, so I'd be more than willing to return the favor in some way to those interested, if any.

Well, how would someone see your writing before its posted? How would you give your pre-reader your story to look over?

It'd have to be via the messaging system. And come to think of it, I suppose that also depends on how much text can fit in one message.
