NooB questions.

Oh happy day, I got writers status

I am having a bit of a problem though. I've been looking around and can't seem to find the rules and regulations part of the site. (Oddly enough, the ablility to type does not make one intelligent)

Being new here, I don't want to step over the boundries of what is and isn't permissable. I'm just trying to find out where those boundries are.

What are the limits to language? Is somewhat foul language allowed if its deemed important to the setting by the author?

And subject matter, where is the line drawn? I wouldn't post erotica here simply because its not an age controlled site and would be out of place. Still, where is the line drawn on violence? Is there a place you can get a second opinion BEFORE you post a piece as to whether it will get you banned or not?

My writing runs from one extreme to the next, I'd really like to know some of these things.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Love and light,

Wupy

I asked the same question of a Mod and got the somewhat vague, but entirely expected asnwer: "No pornography, no over the top violence."

I too would love to post some of my fiction, or chapters of my book, but I don't think the mods have enough bandwidth to handle the complaints sure to follow.
