ATTENTION – READ THIS! « on: 01/10/2007 08:29:51 »

While I am pleased that so many new people have come to find Andromorphia a fun place to hang, and a great forum to role play, I have a few minimum requirements for posting.

This site was set up to encourage people to write. Writing includes grammar, spelling, punctuation and formatting. Below are my minimum formatting requirements when posting on Andromorphia.


Formatting

Quote:
Bad:

This is sentence one.This is sentence two.This,as you can see,is sentence three.

Good:

This is sentence one. This is sentence two. This, as you can see, is sentence three.
Notice the space between a period and the next sentence, and after commas. This makes it easier to read.

Quote:
Bad:

This is a paragraph. It is made of many sentences. It could have two, three, four or even more sentences.
This is a paragraph, too. It is made of many sentences. It could have two, three, four or even more sentences.

Good:

This is a paragraph. It is made of many sentences. It could have two, three, four or even more sentences.

This is a paragraph, too. It is made of many sentences. It could have two, three, four or even more sentences.
Notice the new line after the first paragraph. This makes it easier to read.

Quote:
Bad:

“Hello,Mother”She said.”Hi,how are you,Punkin'?”

Good:

“Hello, Mother,” she said.

“Hi, how are you, Punkin'?”

Notice spaces after commas, after quotes, and after periods? They make it so much easier to read and have any idea of what is being said.


You are welcome to play on our site. We created it for that purpose. However, it is a role playing site for writers. That means you must, at the very least, respect the art of writing and the eye sight of those reading.

Treat it as a book with extra spaces. In order for me to moderate this site, I must be able to read it. If I can't read it, I get cross and upset. If I get cross and upset, I might delete stuff, or ban people. (That's only half-joking, by the way.)

Respect these rules and everyone can have a great time! *sweet smile*

I want to bump it too, for I always try to write as professional as I can get. ^.^
