Welcome to YWS!

Hey! Welcome to yes!

Hi and welcome to YWS! I'm Mage. If you have any questions about YWS, let me know!

(And if I'm ever not online, junior moderators, global moderators and admins definitely would be able to help you out with any questions or concerns you have. Other YWSers would be happy to help you as well!)

Before you get settled in, you might want to swing by the rules thread to see what's allowed on the site, and the FAQ thread to figure out how the site works. It explains a lot about the basics of the site, like how to post your works and how to get points. It was really useful to me back when I first joined the site, so hopefully it'll be just as useful for you!

Some fun areas of the site you might want to learn more about are the forums, blogs and Roleplay Section. The forums have fun games, writing activities, and places to talk about whatever writing project you're working on. The blogs aren't used as much as the other sections of the site, but you can post little life updates there. And the Roleplay Section is a place to collaborate on stories—either by roleplaying or co-writing novel-style stories.

I hope you enjoy your time on YWS!

Hello! I'm Momo, and I'm so glad to meet you!

I'm sure you already know this, but YWS is a writing community for writers. You can post your own poetry, prose, novels, essays, movie reviews, and anything you want, really! You need 200 points to post a work, and you gain points by reviewing other works. The amount of points you get per review varies depending on how long the review is. The Green Room is where works with two or less reviews go, and you get an extra 25 points for reviewing a Green Room work. (There's also a group called the Knights of the Green Room that you can join.)

If you want to introduce yourself, you can post in the Welcome Mat to say hi. You can also join The Newbies Club! If you have a few questions, you can look at the frequently asked questions for new users. If you have other questions, you can PM me or a moderator. The Big Book of YWS Codes also has a lot of great stuff!

Again, if you have any other questions, feel free to contact me!
