... that anyone chosen to be a PG has a fifty percent chance of getting reclaimed by real life or comes across other issues that make visiting the board less likely within a year after nomination.
It's the reason we keep needing new PG's, but it also seems kind of cruel on the person(s) that get(s) nominated.

I didn't think there would be any problem, but I wanted to be sure. The character in question's backstory was so perfect that I couldn't pass it up: he's a minor wizard (I have a list of D&D 3.5 spells roughly equivalent to what he knows, and it's only eighteen things, none above 3rd-level, and only two 3rd-level) who over the course of the novel gets pulled out of his home continuum by a rift created by some crazy magical experiments. He therefore opposes badfic not because he's familiar with the continua and horrified at how people are ruining them, but because he's opposed to continuum-warping in general. His partner is a young werewolf who is familiar with the continua.
Also, wow, I'm embarrassed by how many errors there are in my original post. Thrice-cursed phone.
Thanks and regards,

Is there away to edit or delete posts? I'm such an internet scatterbrain. Too many forms over the years I think, it's an automatic response.
OH NO! Haha I can't be entirely shocked. Oh I'm definitely faking being British, who wouldn't? To be a Brit is the envy of every nation!
Ah in my own defenve, in the battle 'thesauruses' vs. 'thesauri', either is actually applicable (I even checked before I posted it lol ^^) many irregular plurals are being regularised these days due to "general ineptitude of youth today". I guess I'm just being tugged along for the ride- oh the woes!
I'M SO SORRY! (sobs) can you ever forgive me?

Really, this makes me SO DAMN HAPPY. I have plenty of faith in the creators to pull a kickass, strong, non-Sueish, new and above all, INTERESTING character off, and a whole bunch of supporting characters. The old series had lots of dark stuff in it, so the whole rising-crime thing doesn't make me twitch, and I just love the idea of seeing what's happened to the world after the series ends. And there will be more Avatar squee-squee-squee-squee-squee!
...Please tell me I'm not the only one on a total fangirl high? Please?

Uh, she's kind of the Avatar. by

DUH, she's going to be learning all four of the Bending types; it's kind of a given for being the Avatar, you know. And all of the listed characteristics are a) things that can lead to trouble, and b) things that plenty of real people DO embody.
But, really, she's the next Avatar and you expected her not to learn all four bending types, just like Aang and hundreds of Avatars before her? Uh... d'you call Aang a Canon Stu, too?

This isn't a PPC thing, it's just a good rule for most of the Internet. The board tends to be safer than most places, but still...
So! Anyway... I find myself doubting this...information you've given us. Female, no suprise there, British...you're probably be faking it, but I'll withhold judgement. (Like hell I will). 19...well that probably isn't your fault. You're an English student, no suprise there either, and your fandoms are nothing to be horrified about, nor are you're hobbies, nor are your dislikes or envies (rather suprisingly) but your likes...Hmm.
Answer me this, so-called Makaylax...If you're a 19 year-old, second-year English student, why didn't you say thesauri?
GHASP!
This minor grammar error has given me cause to disbelieve everything you've said. Makaylax, how could you lie to us like this? Is your username even Makaylax?!
DOUBLE GHASP!
It isn't! It's Makayla! Mein Gott, how could you do this to me, Makaylax? HOW COULD YOU?!

And correct me if I'm wrong, but she's the Avatar! She needs to know all four forms of Bending, yeah? So in what way does that fall under 'uberpowers'?

Hello Edward!
Certainly more experienced than me. The last time I was on a message board was about 10 years ago, when I was besmirching the LOTR board on what I thought was the Harry Potter board, but as the Laws of Narrative Comedy operate largely in this area I'm sure you can imagine where I actually posted it.
I love scarves! I have a big collection at home so I'd love to add it. Hmm I see what you mean, its kind of difficult to describe the other colours when they keep swirling around like that- bit hard to keep track of...
Haha, well thanks for warning me in advance that there are things I should visit! XD

Naw, never mind, I'm cracking up anyhow, In all senses of the word. Hello, Makaylax!
I am much to laaazy to post lynx to all the things you should visit, and I am positive someone else will, so I will just give you a big fuzzy scarf and call it a day. It is mainly electric blue, but there are other colors in there as well.
(Besides, I'm not 100% sure I remember how to post lynx on this thingy. How do you do this again...?)

I just realised that I said very little actually about me for anyone to talk to me, so let me introduce myself, stealing the format from Ansela in one of the posts below
Name: Zoe McCullagh-George
Gender: Female
Nationality: British
Age: 19
Currently: English Language 2nd Year Uni student
Fandoms: Lord of the Rings (sporadically active), Harry Potter (ibid), Stargate: SG1+Atlantis, Criminal Minds
Some Anime Fandoms: Ouran, XXXHolic, Naruto, FMA, Eyeshield 21
Hobbies: Reading and writing, usually fanfic, but occasionally original fiction manages to slip its way in there.
Likes: anthropology in a purely casual sense, languages, anime, slash (well-written, of course), bouts of insanity, thesauruses, chatting to new people, dancing to dodgy 80s music, random Wii parties!
Dislikes: Bad grammar, shocking abuse of the English Language, anything with six legs coming within my personal space bubble, buttons....
Envies: people with dedication, masters of prose.
Other: my lj account is illezabeth, feel free to add ^^

First of all, I don't want to begin a war with you (Unless it's necessary! Wraaah! No, no, just kidding).
Second, and as I said in my previous reply ("Try to read better" back to you), Canon!Sue was just the first thing that came to my mind when I read her description, and IT WAS NOT BECAUSE SHE'S A GIRL! It was because she is described as knowing waterbending, firebending and earthbending, and learning airbending (überpowers, anyone?) and because she is (and I quote) "hot-headed, independent, passionate, rebellious, fearless, and ready to take on the world".
It was a first impression! She seemed like a canon!Sue because of the description, maybe she is, maybe she isn't. Maybe saying "Written all over her face" wasn't the best way to manifest my actual thoughts - point taken.
If you were really so hurt by my first impression, I apologize.
And if it means that much to you, I take my words back: I don't know if she is a canon!Sue or not for I haven't seen enough of her yet.

One of my Agents, Amelia Keaton, is from an unpublished original fiction of mine. Well, at least her home background/ setting is. Much like yourself, I'll be fleshing everything out for NaNo this year, but she's going to be one of the main characters. It's going to be either a preternatural-based crime novel or a preternatural-based spy novel-- one of the two, since I'm going to go with the whole "ex-private detective" bit of her history like I did here.
