20	The discussion over at the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13140953900A35473200&page=10#236 "Is being Troperiffic a Bad Thing?"]] thread got a few of us seriously talking about starting a full-fledged, free for all dedicated ConCrit thread. Thanks go to your friendly neighborhood Herald, @/Chihuahua0, for giving this the go-ahead. %smile%

22	This is how it's going to work:
23	* This thread is for helping people improve as writers. Please stay away from needlessly gushing or needlessly being mean when handing out criticism.
24	* No mentioning your own work when giving out criticism. This is to prevent "Let's talk about ME" derails.
25	* Feedback will be given to one person at a time. We're taking a somewhat leisurely pace; a person's turn will end after two weeks or when they get feedback from five different people whichever comes first, but we don't want to cut anyone off if their turn hasn't yet lasted a week. However, a writer can end their turn early if they feel they're done.
26	* When a turn ends, we wait 12 hours to see if anyone who has just given feedback wants to go; after that, we contact whoever's on the top of the [[Sandbox/ConCritThread feedback request list.]] If they don't respond within 48 hours, we move down the list.
27	%%Right now the above is a recursive link, but it won't be that if/when the rules are posted for real.
28	* If someone doesn't respond to a notification at all within two weeks, their name is removed from the feedback request list.
29	* Yes, it's okay to point out spelling and grammar errors made by the person you're giving feedback to.
30	* If you're unfamiliar with the original verse of a piece of FanFiction up for feedback, pretend it's a piece of original fiction and criticize accordingly.
31	* If and when you step up to receive feedback:
32	** Post actual writing (not world-building, concepts, layouts, character lists and so on).
33	** Be specific in what you are looking for, or at least mention what is troubling you the most.
34	** FanFiction is fine, but take into account that anyone not familiar with the source material will judge your piece "blind", essentially by the same standards as original fiction. This means you might get called out on flaws that fan fiction usually gets away with in practice, perhaps even justifiably so. Just like any other kind of criticism, consider it or ignore at at your discretion.
