Comm Rules
Okay, this is the first time I've moderated a comm but I'm pretty sure there are supposed to be rules and such :p So I listed some below:
1. This comm accepts fanfiction and fanart featuring the Winchesters, vamped. (I've only said that, like, a dozen times while writing the comm's profile and pimping it around :p) That means all fanfiction and fanart featuring the fanged ones - het, gen, slash, crossovers - rated G to NC-17 or R, whatever. Wincest and Non-Wincest. And, after some consideration, rps (okay, yeah, Jen and Jare aren't Winchesters per se. But they're close enough for me ;)
2. Because not all of us have an anything-goes appreciation of the boys, let's be sure to put our work under lj cuts with clear subject lines and headers. I think a good subject line for a piece of fic or art should include the title (if there is one), a rating, a category (gen, het, slash, crossover) and a mention if the piece is wincest or rps.
Fic headers should include a title, author's name, rating, category, a mention if the fic is wincest or rps, any necessary warnings (for example: bloodplay, non-con, episode spoilers (once the new season begins), character death, etc.)
3. If it's understood that all things vamp!Winchester are accepted here, it should be understood that NO flames will receive the same treatment. As long as a fic or piece of art is under a cut, there's no way you're going to see it unless you click on the little link and choose to do so. So don't give anyone grief for writing wincest or het or rps or something. Kind but constructive criticism is great - "Ew. That sucks." and the like is not. I plan on having a 3 warning system for all other rule violations on this comm, but for the no flame rule? You do it and you're done. I don't think that's too harsh.
4. Don't spam the comm with anything unrelated. Advertisements, rants, discussion of the show or Jared and Jensen that doesn't involve them as vampires... Save that for somewhere else. If you've got a comm or fic or piece of art to pimp that doesn't fit into the vamp!winchester theme, and you reeeaally want to share it with your friends here, then put it at the end of a fic or piece of artwork that does meet the comm requirements.
Um... That should do it for now :p Updates will be added and announced when/as needed. If there's an issue you think should be addressed in the rules that I haven't, or have some input about something I have, let me know here :)
