skyrimkinkmemeIf you want to contact a mod without the loss of anonymity that comes via PM, post your question/request here. Don't be shy!
Want a post deleted? Because of anonymity, we rarely delete fills but will consider deleting prompts if they violate the rules.
Have a question, suggestion or complaint? This is the place to let us know, unless you'd like to contact us privately. You can also de-anon here, if you care to.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How do I post anonymously?
A: Below the body of your message are two buttons: 'post comment' and 'more options...' Select the 'more options' button and you will be redirected to another page with the ability to preview as well as an option to open a drop down menu from your login name. From there you will have many options, but on the bottom is 'Anonymous'. Select this and it will mark you as anonymous even though you are still logged in. Remember, if you forget, just go back and delete you comment and re-post under anonymous.
Q: My prompt/fill/comment isn't showing up! What's going on?
A: Don't panic! Your post is not gone, just hidden. Sometimes LiveJournal
hides anonymous comments when the commenter is not logged in. Try
logging in or waiting a few hours. Sometimes it even takes a day. Please do not repost your comments without checking with a mod.
Q: When do we have Fill-a-Thon? How long do they last?
A: We have Fill-a-Thon at the start of every month, from the 1st until the 7th: one week. At that time all prompts posted will be deleted and saved to be reposted on the 8th, but this is a stress on the archivers and mods so please remember to save them for the 8th. We want to encourage
people to fill, instead of just prompt as well as give our archivers a
break!
Q: Can I fill a prompt that's already been filled?
A: Yes, the more the merrier, plus that makes for an even more pleased OP.
Q: Can I fill a prompt that's already been claimed?
A: Yes, that's also just fine. Claiming is more for the OP's benefit.
Q: Can I post multiple prompts?
A: Go for it - but try to fill as well as prompt.
Q: When does the meme make a new thread for prompts and fills?
A: When the thread hits 20 pages a new one will be made for that particular category.
Q: I'm posting a big fill. How do I avoid the shrinking format problem?
A: Normally this becomes a problem around post 13-15. To solve the skinny paragraphs, just reply consecutively to the original prompt rather than replying to your previous posts one after the other.
Q: It looks like there's a lot of this pairing. Can I post/request more?
A: Of course! If there's already plenty of a certain character/pairing it's because anons want it.
Q: I have this weird pairing/kink/character fetish. Is it too weird for the meme?
A: Only if it's sexually involving someone under 15. Otherwise, go to town.
Q: What I wrote is kind of out-of-character. Is that OK?
A: Yup. All fills are welcomed here, including OOC ones. If the OP
specified in-character though, they might be disappointed. Do your best
and talk with the OP if you're concerned.
Q. Somebody posted something on my fill that hurts my feelings. Is it dumb to ask for it to be taken down?
A. Not at all. PM the mod and we'll get right to it.
Q: Can I give feedback to the writers/artists?
A: If it's positive, yes. To avoid hurt feelings (and to encourage writers
of all skill levels) we don't post the hard stuff.
Q: My fill (or one I found) is labeled wrong/is missing in the archives. What do I do?
A: Link it here and we'll fix it ASAP.
Q: My prompt never got filled :( When can I repost it?
A: About a month later is fine.
Q: This prompt is months old. Should/Can I fill it?
A: YES! Even if the OP isn't around, other anons will LOVE to read it. You
can also repost the prompt and your fill if you'd like.
Q: Somebody requested a sequel. Where do I post it?
A: Just make a new thread in the main meme and post from there. Don't worry about keeping it with the original prompt.
Q: How do I upload fanart?
A: You can use sites like Comprehensive List of Adult Friendly Image Hosts, Adult Image Host, or File Fap.

Date: 2012-02-17 06:48 pm (UTC)I wrote them while at work, and my posting was perhaps too hasty, because when I re-read, it wasn't what I had wanted. XD
Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

I wrote the characters in the title with a "+" (not a "/") and I didn't put a relationship tag in my list of tags because... well, there's no relationship. I'm not sure why these things were changed in the archive and if I could have them corrected? It's just a silly thing though so it doesn't matter much.
Thanks!

kink:massage
kink:substance (or whatever tag is appropriate for use of mead in sex...)
I put them at the bottom of one of the recent posts but I prob didn't make it obvious enough.
Much thanks and love and boiled cream treats, A!A
P.S. For some reason the latest parts haven't been updated on the delicious archive, but then I only put them up yesterday and I'm in a weird time zone (Europe) so feel free to ignore if they just haven't been got to yet, I just saw some other new stuff had been linked.

Date: 2012-04-26 03:24 am (UTC)But can I post a story that is loosely based off of multiple prompts? I was working on a fill and then it evolved (for lack of a better word) the more I read different prompts based on a certain character. ^^;;
no subject
Date: 2012-04-26 03:57 am (UTC)I might ask the OP for your main prompt. "Hey, OP, I know you asked for Ulfric siring Superman and marrying Poison Ivy, but would you be okay with me also making Ulfric the inventor of peanut butter/first person to master the yo-yo/whatever?" If the OP's down with the changes, post away!
If not, create your own prompt that fits your work and fill it yourself.
Hope that helped!

I'm unsure how to tag correctly, so I dun goofed. But, could you also delete the first fill, as I didn't realize LJ doesn't support the tab key like my word pad does and have a revised version under it.
Thank you and sorry for the trouble. :c
Re: Tagging/Format Mess
Date: 2012-05-03 04:24 am (UTC)I have deleted the first post (1/?) and made sure your fill was tagged properly in the archives. Look it over and make sure all is how you want it, if not, do let us know.

Re: Marked as spam
Date: 2012-05-03 04:11 am (UTC)I have unmarked your comment and it can now but happily viewed by everyone. Sadly this problem comes and goes. On a normal journal, comments with links are screened for later overlook by the mod, but no matter how often I uncheck this, it re-checks itself.
Thank you for bringing it to my attention, as it's one of those times it needs to be unchecked once more. :)
