Old guard?! Eep! Nancy, if you start with terms like that, I'll get all kinds of unsavory nicknames.
Dried up and pruny.
Miz Wrinkly.
... that sort of thing.
Psstt.... welcome to the nuthouse, angelbear.

It's early, and I misread that the first time 'round as 'have a frothy one *on* me....

Hello there,
Welcome to Open Scrolls and I'm glad you've got a nice welcome from the Welcome Wagon. As you can see, we're a bit of a community here, not a very sane one but a bunch of lunatics in an asylum can be called a community right? 
Anyhow, let me further clarify one point for you in the rules that Al was good enough to mention.

6) If you don't like a review, cuss out the person. To the computer screen only. IM your friend, b*tch about it. DO NOT CUSS OUT OR B*TCH OUT THE REVIEWER IN A PM. They get testy about that. But cussing them out to the computer screen is A-OK. If you want to be mature about the whole thing, ask Vana. She is the mature one. Come to me to complain or Ghetto to slash some tires. DEC can make a Avatar saying how mean the person is but you might get in trouble for that too!

Yes we do like our reviewers treated with respect but that respect does not give them the license to behave like gits. Contrary to popular belief, I do think its possible to offer constructive criticism without being down right insulting. CC on this archive (and you will get into trouble if you ignore this) is meant to help the author, not beat them over the head with what a crappy fic they wrote. On the other hand, an author is going to have to be prepared for the possibility that someone doesn't think they're frigging Shakespeare either. Growing as an author is not just about writing skill but being able to take criticism in the spirit its given.
Now if you believe that someone is reviewing your story without the above in mind, tell us and we will get out the twelve gauge and go wabbit hunting. Really, we have one, its in the Armory, next to the egg beater and the pie knife.
****climbs off soap box.
Back to the topic at hand, welcome aboard Angel and pull up a cold one. |

You take a class full of 9 and 10 year olds with ADD and ADHD to the Livestock show and Rodeo and see how "normal" you feel!!
yes it was quite a trip, all in all they were as good as could be expected but it was --- an experience!!!!

Well ... cheers!! But, unlike you, I haven't had the nerve to introduce myself on the newbie thread  (but then, I figured I joined before there was a thread perhaps I didn't have to. )

Oldbie, newbie, we're all peers here. I'm tickled pink to see so many new OSA members. And yes, "tickled pink" *is* something my grandma would say.  |
