Yay! I can log in and edit again! --Buck (talk) 22:46, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Works from home, too. --Buck (talk) 06:18, 23 May 2012 (UTC)




Thank you for the notes at my story. They not only helped to make it easier to read, but have also helped me to improve my writing. Again, thanks for the help and for having stopped by. Pocsock 20:10, 27 August 2007 (EDT)


Are you going to put your 'here and there' storys up on this page?

--137.186.98.61 03:35, 2 October 2007 (EDT)

Probably not, as I don't intend to post anything self-referential. --Buck 11:12, 2 October 2007 (EDT)

Permission to use an image?

Didn't think of it until after I logged off but I needed a pic as an example of the structure of a 'furry' leg so I decided to use http://deer.transform.to/SL/FullFox.jpg with the idea that I can ask you when I see you tomorrow or whenever and remove it or leave it up without having to worry about image copyrights or anything like that in the meantime.

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome! Actually this is my first wiki, but I'm a quick study. --Leasara 22:31, 10 January 2008 (EST)

Uploading Artwork

I do have permission to upload them, I've edited the files' descriptions to reflect that. Sorry about that  :) --Leasara 13:56, 12 January 2008 (EST)

A Quick question

I've always enjoyed reading your "Winds of Change" stories and would like to thank you for creating such an interesting story universe. I was wondering what happened to the Round Robins. Will they ever be finished? --66.19.201.165 01:19, 14 April 2008 (EDT)

The Great Round Robin is finished. Keep in mind that one was written from late 1996-1997. So the lives of the three authors have changed rather radically. The Teen Round Robin won't be completed for the same reasons. It's just not in the cards. But thanks for reading and enjoying. --Buck 03:12, 14 April 2008 (EDT)

Anon's, spam-bots and sub-talk-page / entries

It's happened all over the place, sadly. Just shows that there are holes in the spam-protection. I'd up the level of it, but ATM I have no easy way to do that without annoying a hell of a lot of people. ShadowWolf 19:18, 19 May 2008 (EDT)

Also, re: Jon's question about how an anon could edit in the user namespace: That particular page wasn't in the user namespace, it was in the user_talk namespace. I'd rather not lock that down against anon edits if we can at all help it. Bryan 20:35, 19 May 2008 (EDT)

How do I upload my stories up on this site?

Go to the Help:Posting stories page. --Buck 15:12, 11 October 2008 (EDT)

Request

From WolfyDrake95, 8 Feb 09

Sorry about creating a new section!

I was reading your stories (and JetFire's and Matthias' too. But that's beside the point) in Paradise and I was hoping you'd allow me to write in your story universe Paradise. I sent you a couple of emails but you didn't reply :( . If I have your permission I hope you will check it when my story's done: I'm an amateur, and I don't want to screw up anything, especially other people's story universe! Can you drop me an email at drake_halounity@hotmail.com or my talk page? Thanks. I know I'm probably not as good as the other veterans here, but I hope you'll give me a chance!

PS Loved the Winds of Change :).

I'm sorry I haven't gotten to your email yet. I've been very busy lately. You don't need my permission to write a Paradise story. :) --Buck 23:21, 8 February 2009 (EST)
Thanks then. And sorry for spamming your inbox with a bunch of mail. Didn't know you were busy :). --User:WolfyDrake95 13.47, 9 February 2009

I have a request of my own. I've written a Paradise thing—not a story in and of itself, exactly, but an element in a story I had an idea to write—and was wondering if you might look it over and let me know if there are any problems with it.

the 'Comment Tag' template

This is still valid - it is and always has been independent of the "comments" tag extension that was pulled because of mis-use by spammers. {{comment tag}} inserts a little floated box that adds a quick link to the Talk page. -- ShadowWolf 01:30, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

What's happened to your story "QED"?

I assume it has been eaten by the Shifti crash ... Are you planning to resurrect it?

I happen to be quite fond of that story and would like to see it continue.

--- Martin (Yet-another-martin 15:52, 26 January 2011 (UTC))

I haven't gotten around to putting it back up yet. Given that the story is fluff (Basically, something I write just to keep the juices flowing) I don't know when/if it'll continue. --Buck 17:41, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

I will comment that I found out about the story's existence after the crash, and would very very much like to read it, even if it isn't continued. Please upload it when you have the time. --Highduger Feb 9 2011

Shared Story Universe

I want to start a shared story universe like Xanadu and other shared stories. Is there anything special that needs to be done for it? I tried looking for the answer but I couldn't find it. Thank you in advance. Richard Plunkett (talk) 00:56, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

If there's anything special/needed for a shared setting it's a good opening story. Something that grabs the attention of potential writers and communicates the setting theme/flavor effectively. I've never seen a shared setting get off the ground from just posting setting notes and rules. --Buck (talk) 18:10, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
