Here are some rules that we need to establish to insure that Twisted is a great place for everyone to hang out. You need to post a reply to this once you have read it Thanks!!

1. Language: When posting, please remember to keep derogatory remarks out of chats and the like. Using derogatory remarks can be used in you work IF they are pertinent to the story/poem. Just keep them to a minimum.
NEVER degrade or maliciously insult another user or their work. Because some writers do use some words for their work, the words are not banned from the sight. Please use good judgment! We would hate to delete a user because he abused this. (ex: calling someone a derogative name in the chat).

2. If you are going to reply to someone's work, please do not use harmful/hurtful words. Instead of saying"Wow, that sucks hard. Why do you even write?", try "hey, you could try this:..." If you would not want to be told something, do not tell it to others.

3. If you post something that you feel may be inappropriate to some (such as a dirty joke), try to remember to put a warming in the title of the post. ex: The tail of Two Sisters *explicit language*. This way, the users that do not care to see those words, know that they are in the poem and will be less likely to get upset.

Ways to Get Your Profile Deleted:

1. Use the forum to "attack" another user
2. Use derogatory words outside of you work towards another user in a malicious way
3. Claiming someone else's work as your own (wither it be a published or unpublished author) ** Cite the source if you use someone else's work!**
4. Not replying to this (again, you will be sent a reminder PM)

Warnings:
The number of Warnings depends on the "crime." You will be given time to correct most actions (such as citing a source).
~You will be sent a Private Message regarding the incident and you will have to follow the instructions in that PM to prevent deletion. EX: You do not cite the source of the poem you posted. You will be sent an PM saying that you need to post the source within X days or remove the post.

We understand that some may only come here occasionally, so we recommend that you set up your account so that you will be notified by email when you have a new message.

Have Fun!
