We want this to be a fun, respectful community. All members and applicants for membership are responsible for reading and following our guidelines.
1. Be respectful toward all our members. Racist, sexist, and homophobic comments are not acceptable here (nor are any other of those icky isms). Such comments will be deleted and repeat offenders will be banned from the community.
2. If RPF isn't your thing, this isn't your community. Please don't waste time telling anyone how evil RPF is. We know.
3. All stories posted here are about real people in fake situations. In other words, fiction. They are not meant to portray any sort of reality whatsoever.
4. All posts are members only here. If you would like to read this community, you must apply to join.
All requests will be approved, unless you're a) an obvious troll/bot, b) your journal is mostly empty (no entries, no friends, few comments posted), or c) you appear to be under 18. If your membership was rejected and you have questions, please page the mods in this entry.
(If you'd prefer to post your RPF fic with a sockpuppet journal and wish to join, please PM one of the mods before you join the comm so we know to approve your membership. We'll keep your naughty little secret. Promise.)
5. Please only post fic to this community. This is not a discussion or gossip community.
6. All RPF ships with at least one Big Bang Theory cast member are welcome. Slash, het, threesomes, and moresomes are happily devoured.
7. Please post all fiction behind a cut.
8. Please use a warning if your fic contains dub-con, character death, incest, or extreme violence. If your fic is not labeled with a warning, it will be deleted.
9. Fic with non-consensual sex or sex involving someone under the age of 18 is not permitted here. If you're not sure if your story is dub-con or non-con, PM a mod before posting. Fic with non-con or underage characters in sexual situations will be deleted.
10. Fic or comments that bash actors or characters will be deleted.
11. Before you post, please familiarize yourself with our tagging system. Proper tagging=love. After you've posted your first fic, we'll give you an author's tag. If you need a tag for a pairing/grouping that's not already here, let us know and we'll add it for you.
12. Please include the following when posting your story:
13. Please link to any previous chapters if your work is part of a series/multi-chaptered fic.
14. If you read a story and enjoyed it, please take the time to leave a comment for the writer.
15. If you have a question or an issue you'd like to discuss, please page the mods in this entry. We don't bite. Usually.
16. BBT RPF. It's wrong, but it's deliciously wrong.
