So, I came to this thread because someone *coughAlassantecough* promised me comma-talk (which is like pillow-talk for editors; hey, eveybody needs a geek). However, I detect no scintillating comma-talk. Just more story pimpage (and I'd like to concur with the pimpage of Ghetto's Wet Balrog Scene. Go, go read how Glorfindel gets off. It's illuminating).
At any rate, there's something much better than commas here: Fresh meats! Er, I mean, new member! Welcome!
There are lots of things to do around here (i.e., ways to get in trouble). Check out the Quizzes (on nav bar on the main page) and the Challenges (bottom left of main page). I'm one of the Challenge admins, so if you have a question or a suggestion, feel free to PM me.
And if you really want to torment yourself, you can read my fic. But I wouldn't recommend it.

welcome...
this is a lovely place to hang around, curl up in a cosy corner and read, or romp through a sunny meadow with the elf of your choice.

I do not know what comma talk is. My beta tells me I can't place one for snot! (it's NOT a breath mark, Zee!)
Nor have I pimped my fic. Should I?
My apologies, Hellion... I have no fan club and I ask one not be formed due to the reasons that there are those who think my ego is too big anyway. If I were to have a fanclub, I would chose a Chic-filet Cow to be the president. To watch them clutz around makes my day.
I shall say no more as I wish to continue to curry Scribe and Do's favor and GhettoElleth, get OFF the floor. I KNOW you got the joke! _________________ Zee |

hola hellion. as i actually have a life and a real job now unlike some other OSA lurkers *coughcoughghettocoughcoughalassantecoughcough* i now have an excuse as to why i haven't welcomed you until the third page of this. which is strange, for me.
anyway, welcome to oSA ....yadda yadda yadda....you'd do well to watch out for most here - there are just those out there that would corrupt a newbie such as oyurself without any thought at all........ISN'T THAT RIGHT, GHETTO?
not that that's a bad thing......usually.
oh yeah - and i don't know if anyones told you, but read zee's "empty vessel" if you want some DELICIOUS hal smut.
oh yeah - and i love your avvie!

I do have a real job too. OSA thread crashing and lurking is just a hobby. Don't get on my bad side Texasgirl! I will have Ghetto come slash your tires.  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove

Thanks for the welcome Texas girl. I work too so I know what lack of playtime feels like. And I'm to old to worry about being corrupted. If I haven't done it by now then it is to late to think about, let alone do it.
I have already read Zee's "Empty Vessel". Excellant story, starring my favorite elf. Any other story suggestions are most welcomed.
And I love your avvie too!

There's a too-spiffy feature on this site that lets members list their Recommendations. Mine are here:
http://www.openscrolls.net/fanfic/authors.php?what=2&no=6
Those are the 10 best stories on the site, in my opinion, though I will be updating that fairly soon (I revisit it every three or four months).
The site also keeps track of which stories appear on members' Recommendations lists most often, and those are listed here:
http://www.openscrolls.net/fanfic/latest.php?what=4
That might be a good place to start. There's also a Recommendations thread here on the forum. And of course, feel free to start specific recs threads, like Haldir Recs or something. |

Looks like we wee hobbitses have failed to welcome you, Hellion! Anyway, on the behalf of the Pervy Hobbit Fanciers of OSA, I bid you welcome.
(I myself am mostly a pervy Merry & Pippin fancier).
I've had enough of slash as well... that's why I came here. Not that I don't read slash (I do it sometimes, for a laugh), I just prefer het. Especially hobbit het, he he he (you don't see too much of that, really).  |

Have to put in my two cents' worth.
From one reader to another, Hellion, welcome to OSA.
Read your review of
She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named-Because-I, Livid-Am-Not-A-Pimp's
story and I sympathise. However, I am thrilled to meet another
WIP sucker. Welcome to the club.
I say, maybe we should drop some subtle hints about updates
all over the forums? Maybe ghettoel...I mean She-Who-Etc. will read
them and take pity on little old ladies with only her story to lighten their
last days on earth.
Think she'll fall for that? Me neither. Pity. |

Rumor has it she'll be posting again soon, see her response to the last reviews of her story. _________________ Yavanie

She-Who-Will-Be-Named-But-Not-In-Mixed-Company may not have told you but if you click on "watch this story" you will receive email updates on additional chapters. And if you are asking for an updated list of good stories coughcoughElfAndFutureKingcoughcough there is a thread out there where everyone pimps other people's stories even if they are on another website.
http://www.openscrolls.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=131
I don't know if anyone has told you guys but the awesome co-owner of all of this loveliness - She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed, Scribe has quite a number of stellar fics on here.
http://www.openscrolls.net/fanfic/authors.php?what=1&no=2
(You should read the Legends of Middle Earth story in order. I started in the middle and got all mixed up)
Her stuff is what pointed me here. So for all of you coughcoughbuttmunchescoughcough who say mean things about me - BLAME SCRIBE. She is the whole reason I am here. Now don't ya'll love here even more??
Geez Ghetto - everyone is pimping your story. One freakin Balrog Wet Dream and they are like mindless puppets.  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove

Reading Scribe's work is one of life's guilty pleasures: publishable fiction for free! Zimraphel and miriel361 also write consistently good, should-be-printed-and-sold fiction.
Some day these uber-talented sorts are going to realize they could start charging for this stuff, and it will all vanish. Get it while it's hot. |

I do hope so. Thank you, Yavanie.
In my defense, I've read some of the most wonderful WIPs
only to realise that, since the last update was in 2003, there
won't be any more story. I'm a twit, I know, but it left me
scarred for life.

LOL
I've read 'em all. Aragorn asking Legolas if he was finished
with Melia gave me hours of sinful pleasure. (Daugther of Rivendell? The first ME story, anyway.) Exactly why I came here in the first place. |
