Because something is totally going to happen when you sit around in the rant board and moan and whine.

Wait wait wait... Are we talking about a fan fiction or a gamebook here? Yes, I don't see why it has not been acepted if there are wolves in it, as there was many of those on BS.

Now, the title is 'My FANNFIC aggravations' yet the mod who Pmed you is a gamebook mod? You say it is over a page long, a gamebook must have more than one page, otherwise it will be to short and pointless.

I'd check you sent it to the right part of the site, you say it's a fanfic, yet you are pmed by a gamebook mod.

I suggest you re-send it, making sure you are sending it in the Fan-Fiction section, and see what happens from there.

When you send in a fanfic it says Gamebook mod. I don't know why but it should say fanfiction mod. Very confusing.

That is confusing . . . and I happen to be a fanfiction/gamebook mod!

(Awkward . . . ^__^; )

Anyway, I know I didn't send you that message, but I think that perhaps you should learn to distinguish the characters a bit more so that we (the readers and mods alike) can be able to tell what you're talking about. You say that all of your characters were wolves? Well, maybe the mod at the time couldn't tell whether they were wolves or multi-colored unicorns with razor-blades for tails! ( . . . odd picture, ain't it?) But yeah, I agree with Lugia: Be more descriptive, write clearly and maybe we'll post your fics for everyone to read, okay?

Good advice that everyone should continue to follow. *nods*

Oksy cobalt,but you could have been less cynical :roll:

Um..gold kitty? You threatened Cobalt, so you had it coming. And cynical hardly describes Cobalt's attitude.

Anyways, Cobalt's point is legitimate. The author is concerned as to why their story didn't get published, and instead they should be working on improving it, not ranting about it not being published. I believe this was what Cobalt meant, but please, correct me if I'm wrong.

My view on this is that the author should take the rejection as criticism and work to improve their story. If they are confused by why it was rejected, they might want to talk to the mod who rejected it.
