REPOST of AMPH’S RULES
Hey. I’m wierdo4(previously wierdo2, and wierdo3) and I’m one of the admins. As some of tu may know, there are rules in place. The problem is most of you, including newbies don’t. So here are the rules already in place made por our leader, Amphitrite (who is currently on Olympus) From here on is Amph’s words Reposted.
Who likes articles? I do, I do!!! There is nothing I find más satisfying here than lectura a good articulo that gives rise to a great discussion. Below I have everything tu need to know about artículos to get tu escritura and get the discussions started.
Rules for artículos and articulo Comments
1. First and foremost, as with the rest of the spot, NO SPAM! If I see any spam artículos o comentarios I will reportar them on sight....yeah...I'm mean about spam.
2. Please keep your artículos relevant to the series...this goes hand-in-hand with the spam. No, Harry Potter doesn't make an appearance at Camp Halfblood and I seriously doubt that Whisty Allgood was spotted on Mt. Olympus so I don't want them to be a topic for an article...they have their own libros and their own spots.
3.Grammar and Spelling, people, grammar and spelling. Please try your hardest to use proper grammar and spelling. I know that we all make our mistakes, and sometimes not even a spell check will catch everything, but try your hardest. If tu need someone to read it before hand I will be glad to go over it and editar mistakes.
4. I will not have any rude remarks in an articulo o in the comentarios to an article. I will reportar these on site. No one, and I mean no one deserves to be treated in an ill manner. If tu don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all.
5. Constructive criticism and debate are very much tolerated and welcome, but they mustn't be rude in any way.
6. Vulgarity, such as lewd subjects and curse words, is not allowed...there are only certain instances in an articulo that I will allow them. We will discuss those in a few minutes.
7.If tu are dado a warning por an admin, just like on the rest of the spot, tu are expected to follow their instructions. Not heeding the words of an admin twice in a row will result in a report. Three reports on fanpop means a ban from the site (not just the spot), so please try to follow the rules and listen to the admins...you can find a complete lista of the admins in the rules for the heroes of Olympus spot.
8.Plagiarism will NOT be tolerated. Whether it be in the articulo itself o in the comments, if I see it I WILL reportar it! If tu are going to use someone else's words give them credit for it.
9. Spoilers will be in effect for two weeks after the release of new (sample) chapters and for at least 2-4 months after the release of the books. If your articulo contains spoilers please put a spoiler alert in both the título and in the description, and don't put any revealing information in those two places. Failure to follow this will result in one warning. If a segundo warning is needed I will simply reportar you.
10. FANFICTION MUST GO IN THE FORUMS!!! All chapter fics must be publicado in the forums!Only short stories, ones that are finished in one chapter/article,are allowed to be placed in the artículos section. Any stories placed in the artículos with multiple chapters will be reported as spam o miscategorized content!
Ok so there's some basic rules. Now onto other business, that is to say, the who, what, when, where, how and why of articulo writing.
First off, you'll notice that there are categories in the articulo section. Let's discuss each.
Opinion- This is what 95% of the artículos on the HoO spot are. Pretty much, this is where artículos about your theories, ideas and such go.
Review- Have tu finished lectura one of the libros and tu want to give your thoughts about the events that occurred? This is where tu do it. Reviews should be factual, but a little opinion never hurt. This in no way, shape o form is where tu post your predictions for future books.
Guide-This is where only fact is accepted. If tu want to give everybody a rundown of the characters, o a descripción of the plot line you'll put it here. Also, rules publicado por the admins will be publicado as guides and new information about upcoming releases will be publicado here por one of the admins.
fan Fiction-This is a special articulo because most fanfiction is to be placed in the forums. Only short stories, ones that are finished in one chapter/article,are allowed to be filed under this category. This is the only one of the articulo categories that vulgarity will be allowed in, but it must be properly rated like the regular fanfiction.
List-Oh! So tu want to lista out the important places o tu want to make a checklist of things a young demigod should take on their quest? This is the place to do it...
Other- This is a catch all for everything that doesn't fit in the other categories. Again, please make sure it is relevant to the spot and the series.
*Requirements for Articles*
1. Must be at least three paragraphs long
2.Images (if used) must be appropriate for all ages and relevant to the article
3.Please insure to the best of your ability that Grammar and Spelling are correct and proper. Please ask someone to Beta read for tu if tu need assistance.
4.Content must be relevant to the series.
5.Please make sure that your articulo makes sense and isn't too hard to follow.
6. Your título must be relevant to the articulo and must not be in all caps.

9.Tags must be appropriate and relevant to the article.
Ah, fan fiction... What can I say about fan fiction? Its a great escape when done properly, and perfect for those oh-so-long periods between books. So, for those of tu who write these great escapes, there are rules, just like the rest of the spot, that need to be followed. If you'll kindly read below we will go over these simple, common sense rules, and then tu can get back to writing!
1.Chapter stories should go in the forum. Short stories (one chapter stories/one shots) go in the articles. It is annoying having to buscar out artículos to find the specific chapter tu are looking for. por keeping chapter stories in a specific thread it is less confusing, less troubling, and a whole lot easier for people to navigate and find the chapters they are looking for.
2.Please use proper grammar/spelling. Nothing can bring tu out of a story más than trying to understand what the autor is saying. If tu would like someone to review your piece for tu to make sure it is virtually mistake free, o tu just want someone to let tu know if it sounds good, send me a PM.
3.No crossovers! Sorry guys, but Edward Cullen and Zoey Redbird have their own series' and their own fanpop spots, so please keep all non cañón characters far away from here, unless they are original characters. The only series' that should be included in your heroes of Olympus fanfics are PJO and HoO. If tu want to write crossovers, please visit a different spot o site, Fanfiction.net is a good place for crossovers! Any Crossover fics that we find will be reported. Also there is a Crossover Club on fanpop. Post em there.
3.NO LEMONS! No one wants to read a story about nothing but doing the dirty, so please save your lemons for another site. If Lemons are publicado they will be reported. tu have been warned.
4.Do not abandon your stories. I look at stories like children, abandoning them is wrong, and it is annoying to get into a story and never get to finish it because someone got lazy o bored. If tu don't plan on finishing your story, then don't publicar it.
5.Please put a rating on your story. We never know who is lectura our stories. We wouldn't want a little kid lectura something we wouldn't want Grandma to see, would we? Please use the rating system below:
YC- suitable for kids age 5 and up (No violence, bad language, o adult themes.)
C-suitable for age 10 and up (Mild violence, no bad language and no adult themes.)
YA-suitable for age 13 and up (May contain violence, and some bad language)
T-suitable for 15 and up (May contain violence, bad language, and some adult themes)
M-suitable for 17 and up (May contain violence, bad language, and adult themes)
6.Please use an informational form. Although creativity cannot be contained and is sometimes sloppy, please use a proper form for the informational part of your story (the part that lets everyone know what your story is about and all that jazz.) Please use the form dado below. (This does not pertain to short stories, please see the form below the first one.)
Title: [Your título Here]
Rating: [Rate your fan fic. here]
Type: [Please put what genre tu think your story falls into, tu can use multiple genres.]
Characters: [Please put the central characters here. If one of them is of your own creation put OC]
Synopsis: [Put a brief descripción of your story here, tu don't have to give away the ending, but let people know what they are getting into]
Disclaimer: [So we don't get in trouble here, please give R.R. (or whoever deserves it) credit]
A/N: [Put your author's notes here. They can pertain to the story o they can be dedications]
FOR SHORT STORIES (one shots)
Rating: [Please rate your story here]
Disclaimer: [Give credit where credit is due.]
A/N: [Put your Author's notes here.]
7.No bullying. This really pertains to people who comentario on your story. If tu comentario on a story, please be nice, and if tu insist on criticism make it constructive. If tu don't have anything good to say, don't say it at all! Violators will be reported!
8.Let us know when tu publicar a story o a chapter! Post in the publicado Chapters foros topic, but not on the muro because that takes up way too much el espacio and is not what the muro is intended for.
9.HAVE FUN! Your story is just that, yours. The whole point of fan fic (in my opinion) is to have fun and get all those crazy thoughts out of your head. Don't let anyone push tu around. tu do not have to accept requests, tu do not have a deadline for publishing, and there are certainly no limitations (other than the ones above) on your story. If someone is trying to tell tu anything different, reportar them o let me know.
Ratings
Although nothing makes an autor feel greater than having someone tell them what they like about a story, they still want to know how well the story was received por everybody. That's where ratings come in. tu know how to rate an article, but when tu post a chapter fic in the forum, there is no way to rate it. I've devised a system to let the authors of chapter fics know just how much tu liked a piece. So, tu know those emotes at the bottom of the reply form at the bottom of the page? Well, they are nifty little things. So my idea is that depending on how well tu like a chapter in a fan fic tu choose an emote that is equated with numbers on a rating scale (1-10.) The Scale is as follows.
1-Angry (the angry face)This is the worst rating
2-Sad (Has a frown...not the crying face)
3-Hmmmm (has a half frown)
4-meh (no smile, but no frown...straight line)
5-monkey (It's a monkey...)
6-smile (The regular smiley face)
7-big smile (The face with the big ear to ear grin)
8-cool (The face with the sun glasses)
9-kiss (The face with the puckered up lips)
10-heart (Self explanatory) This is the best rating
If tu want to make an autor feel especially happy, give them a prop. Use the comentario prop, and let the autor know what tu like!
These rules are here to make our lectura adventures fun, safe, and easy. I'm not trying to be mean, so please don't hurt me. If tu have any complaints o tu think I missed something send me a PM o post it in the comments. Happy fic'ing. Go. Read. Enjoy.
Wierdo , again. So that’s pretty much it. Failure to comply will result in reporting. If tu see spam don’t just ask the spammer to stop. tu may, but also reportar it as spam. Let’s clean our cluttered club!

The silver-footed Thetis
Piper, maybe.
Jason and Piper were por the fire. Piper looked deep into Jason's eyes. How did he look so good after going through soooo much? She doubted she looked as good. While she was thinking, she didnt even notice Jason inching adelante, hacia adelante until his lips were on hers. Her corazón was thumping so loudly she could barely contain it. She leaned in further but Jason pulled away. "I remembered last night." he said. Giddily, Piper asked, "Remembered what?" He sighed and replied, "That Reyna's my girlfriend." She had planned the talk in jer head where Jason told her he had a girlfriend, but now she had no words. She looked away. "But Pipes I'm not the same man. I'm changed. And now I don't amor Reyna, I amor you. I amor the way tu look after a fight and I amor your braids. I amor the way tu always lean towards me and inch closer to me. I amor you." Piper smiled and whispered, "Reyna who?"
