This is a fast reply.
In this "book" which I highly suspect will be a website, will you be giving credit by name to all these nice people who have contributed to the creation of your web site? I think you are serious about this, and that's OK, but at least let the folks who are helping you know right from the get go the reason you are asking for their "rules" or "guidelines".
Castlerealm has closed it's doors, so the newbies, who are too lazy to do the reading of credited authors now need a quick place to get their information. Again, nothing wrong with that, except that as we all know THERE ARE NO RULES, so for us to simply direct the new people who are just learning about wiitwd to your brand new shiny web site, is just as bad as us referring them to castlerealm.com.
Let's face it, there are not many web sites out there that give out information about wiitwd to new folks. Can you imagine a new person coming here and asking questions (Yeah, they do that, and look what they get for their efforts) and we give them www.guidelinesforbdsm.com (Fake name for the sake of my post) and they immediately rush to that site to gather up in their inexperienced minds, all the "guidelines" there are, so they can quickly rush back here to write on their profiles "Experienced" blah blah blah...(That was a serious run on words, but screw it).
So, how much "help" are we really giving?
Just to make sure everybody understands, the only place that any of this was written on our behalf was for the pages of these forums and the visitors of this site. We are incredibly flattered and are currently stroking our egos over your thinking we could possibly good enough to be professional writers. My Love and I thank you.
Safety comes under the heading of rule #4, be true to yourself, imho.
I think her exact point was that you WEREN'T writing this, others were. I don't think she was stating in the slightest that she thought you were a professional writer. I know if I am wrong, I will be happy to have MoGA correct me, but I did notice she noticed(like others) your definite backpedaling. Call it insulting if you wish, it was not meant to be. Just a few people calling it like they see it.
edited to add: I saw later that in fact MoGA did clear that up.
