About:

oh_she_knows is a private OTP community that aims to provide Doctor/Rose shippers with a little something different – a safe, comfortable place to be as shippy as one wants!

Fanfiction, fanart, icons, songvids, fanmixes, polls, challenges, DW-related pimping, fic recs, fic searches, beta requests, and just about anything else one can think of pertaining to Rose and the Doctor are all welcome - it's a one-stop shop for D/R.

Discussion, speculation, and meta posts are particularly encouraged. This is the place to not be shy with your shipping!

Note: We've now switched over to a vouching system for prospective members. Please read the Q&A to see how to join.

Q&A:

1. Is this community for everyone?
No, it's for people who unabashedly love Rose, the Doctor, and their relationship. 'Oh She Knows' is oriented towards Doctor/Rose OTPers - and membership is carefully moderated.

If this community isn't for you - or you're mostly just looking for fic/icons/vids/etc - there are other, broader Doctor & Rose fan communities, such as

time_and_chips, that are open to anybody and everybody, shipper, non-shipper, and all the people inbetween.

OSK however, is geared more towards folks who are looking for a safe haven for D/R shipping, particularly D/R discussion.

2. Why are the posts flocked?
Members have the option of unlocking fiction and other creative endeavors, but all other posts remain friends-locked for the members' comfort.

3. Is only happy, fluffy, romantic fic allowed?
All genres are welcome, darkfic too.

4. Do I have to be a member to read the Summer Lovin' ficathon stories?
Nope! The ficathon stories are public and can be found at

osk_ficathon.

5. Can I just lurk here?
Err, well, we'd prefer that you poke your head out to comment at least once in a while. Otherwise it just feels weird and uncomfortable for the active members to be all sorts of shippy in front of a bunch of non-participants - we're catering to the folks who want/need a place to talk freely (not so much to the lurkers). And hey, this is a friendly community - we want to get to know you! We'd love it if you said hello once in a while *g*

6. Sounds good! How do I join?
We have a vouching system for prospective members (membership is closed - you can't just click on 'join community'). What you need to do is get somebody already in the community who is on your flist (or who knows you well from elsewhere) to vouch for you on The Vouching Post. In all likelihood, you'll then be sent an invitation to the community.

Posting Guidelines:

- Please tag your posts. The list of tags can be found here and on the community homepage.
- Use lj-cuts for stories, large images, spoilers, adult content, and long posts. Don't know how to lj-cut? No problem. The answer can be found here.
- Good spelling and grammar are expected (including proper capitalization), whether in posts or in comments. We're all assumed to be adults here, so please present yourself that way. Text speak/typing like a teenie will get you moderated. Repeated infractions will get you banned.
- Use a proper header (title, author, pairing(s), rating, warnings, spoilers, summary, etc). WIPS should be labelled in the header with 1/? or 4/10 etc.
- If you have more than a few works to repost, or a long, multi-parter to repost, please make only one post with a masterlist of links. Otherwise you'll spam us with things many of us have probably already seen.
- People often search in the memories section for the type of fic they want by pairing, genre, and rating - please use a descriptive subject line for your post. Here's a good example: Fic: "Title" Nine/Rose (PG-13, Romance, Angst, TPotW)

Community Rules:

1. The default setting for all posts is friends-only. You may make fic, art, icons, songvids, fanmixes, recs, searches, and pimping, etc. public if you wish (and are encouraged to do so!), but all other posts, especially discussion-oriented ones, are to remain friends-only. It's part of keeping the comfortable atmosphere.

To make a public post, make your post normally (it will default to friends-only, regardless of what setting you choose). Then go back and edit the post, changing the security setting to "Everyone (Public)".

2. Friendship/Gen fics are welcome. Fics containing other pairings are welcome too (including slash and femmeslash!). However - the main relationship must be Doctor/Rose. In other words, all stories must be primarily about the Doctor & Rose's relationship, whether they end up together or not.

Examples, with the focus of the story listed first:

On topic - Doctor/Rose, Rose/Mickey.
On topic - implied Doctor/Rose, Doctor/Reinette.
On topic - Jackie POV, Doctor/Rose
On topic - Nine/Rose/Ten (and other variations of Doctor/Rose/Doctor)

Off topic - Doctor/Sarah Jane, implied Doctor/Rose.
Off topic - Jack/Rose, Doctor.
Off topic - Doctor/Rose/Jack
Etc, etc - you get the idea.

3. If you have any doubts as to the suitability of your post, please ask before posting. Similarly, feel free to drop us a note in the COMMENT BOX about any questions or concerns you have with the community, specific posts, or specific comments. We don't bite, so speak up! *G*

4. Keep in mind that some fans here prefer Nine/Rose, some prefer Ten/Rose, and some may prefer Eight/Rose or another incarnation with her. We also have fans of other companions here. Nobody has to slavishly adore every character, but do try to be fair and reasonable with criticism, and please consider other members' feelings.

5. Sexist, racist, homophobic and classist comments are grounds for instant banning.

6. Do not share flocked content (duh). Not only is that bad manners, it's a LJ TOS offense and will certainly get you banned here.
