Global! We follow the U.S. laws for internet sites since Nate is based in the U.S., but we have members from all over the world!

Why did some people's names turn pink!?

It was a mod-on-mod prank I'm sure they'll explain, but it's just silliness. They're about to be back to normal.

We had fun, basically. But it's back to normal now.

(Sorry for the double post; I have a lot of questions this week!)

Jus' wondering 'cuz I've never been told... How do you become a junior mod?

-Just

are we allowed to use strongly religious views in our stories? cause I do that a lot

Rachel - Yep! I'd be prepared for some differing views among reviewers, though, but we do try to keep the debates limited to the debate forum.

Justagirl - You become a junior moderator by reviewing a lot, posting a lot, and basically just getting yourself known around the site.

I am not a new member but I have a couple of questions:

1) How many reviews are we supposed to write in order to gain a new star?
2) What are the six badges and how do you get them?

To answer your questions, I'll take some quotes from Kamas darling.

1 Gold star: 5 reviews
2 gold stars: 25 reviews
3 gold stars: 75 reviews
4 gold stars: 150 reviews
5 gold stars: 250 reviews

And from there, the star color changes every 100 reviews! So your next star is at 150 reviews! You don't have that far to go. ;)

There are five badges! Those five badges are Greeter, Reviewer I, Reviewer II, Storybooker, 1001 Posts. For info on how to be nominated, you can visit the nomination area for info. You have to receive certain amounts of votes for every badge, except for 1001 posts, which is pretty self-explanitory.

Hope this helps!

Hello!

I have a question.
1)Can you delete a reply? Supposedly this one?

You can! Unless there's a reply after it. And if there's a reply after a comment you make, then the most you can do is edit out the text. Just leave something like a "." or something pointless. But we love what you have to say, so there's no reason to delete a comment!

Oh, and comments that break the rules may be deleted or edited out, depending on the rule violation/location.

You can also ask a mod, if it's a double post, and we'll be happy to delete it for you.

Okay thanks!
