A tag is a word or a small set of words that links back to a piece of writing, normally a blog on the internet (but for this, it will be writing). For now, we would like to let you use tags, to try and set this site not only more organized in the future, but to allow for a quicker access to certain pieces of writing.
When you set your tags, please set them at the bottom of your post, and in parenthesis. The tags will merely be words that describe your blog - to the best of your abilites - and the administrators will set the links for you, so don't worry. However, if you select a tag that is already in use, it will not be used by you.
Whenever the administrators have updated the tags, we will remove them from your post so your post can be normal, without parenthesis and tags at the bottom. Good luck, and have fun!

Welcome to Writer's Blog: Blogger 2007!
The adminstrators (Sammius JEB McGennien, Laura, Moralis) would like to thank you for being a part of our little writing experience, and will appreciate it if you remain active to the best of your abilities. We also ask that you follow a few simple rules to make the site TOS-free and user-friendly.
1. This being a "thirteen and above" website, you may write material that is PG-13. However, as not all teenagers cuss every sentence or two, we ask that you limit your cussing. We will not edit it out entirely as that wouldn't be fair to some of you, but we do ask that you are responsible with your language. If you wish to post anything above the PG-13 rating, state the new rating in the subject.
The administrators reserve the right to edit any material that may abuse the "language" rule at any time.
2. Use proper grammar and spelling to the best of your abilities. Most people don't want to have to read messages thut luk lyk thus teh etre tme; it gets tiring and utterly annoying.
The administrators reserve the right to modify your post for grammar and spelling at any time.
3. Please limit one-word or one-line responses; they are annoying, and we will consider it as spamming. We aren't going to make a sentence minimum, but we ask that you post at least two good sentences, if you can.
4. Don't use racist/sexist comments against someone of that discriminated category (i.e. homesexuality, a different faith, et cetera). They are disrespectful and totally uncalled for.
The administrators reserve the right to edit any comments that seem racist or sexist at any time.
5. Keep the material under the right category. For example: if you submit under the "politics" board, please don't start talking about your cat. It's okay to go off-topic if you have a good reason (such as using it as an example), but try and go back on-topic and limit such acts.
6. While we have no control over whether you use it, we ask that you please do not use your real name. Nicknames are acceptable (as long as they don't violate the rules and are not innapropriate in any way) as well as any other form of name-using. If you do use your real name, the least you can do is exclude your last name.
7. Limit sexual content. Since we ask that you keep material no higher than PG-13, don't post anything that would be graphic or insulting to other members. If you wish to post anything higher than a PG-13 rating, please state in the subject your rating.
The administrators reserve the right to edit any material that is not PG-13-suitable unless properly labeled at any time.
8. The administrators reserve the right to add or modify any of these rules, and it is up to you to keep up with things.
