I think that most of the fun of castration in my fantasies is that it is permanent. On the other hand, I usually fantasize it as punishment for unlikable characters, and that punishment would be so much less if they could get it 'fixed' (so to speak).

If I could personally do it and have 'it ...

That's a lot of w

tried to preserve and enhance that effect in my version.

I don't think the guidelines are tough at all, though sometimes I wonder if we are making rules just for the sake of having rules. A more free and open environment is more friendly, after all. For example, that bit about deleting stories that are given no tags; I'm perfectly fine with that since I'd ...

If you don't like HIS rules, and can't come to a reasonable understanding with him, then you have 2 options:

1. Don't post.

2. Continue to complain to him and get banned.



That sure sounds serious. What exactly is this about? Are we facing an epidemic of complaining that must be stopped ...

I have just recently read When the Night (http://www.eunuch.org/Alpha/W/ea_151204when_the.htm).

The story is an amazing read. It it well worth looking at for anyone who wants something great on the technical side. It looks like Unmasked spent hours carefully sculpting each paragraph, spend minutes ...

If someone already has a story written out, then a simple MS Word 'find and replace' for names will suffice to create an entirely new world of characters.

Plagiarism – Don’t even try to use someone else’s story/characters without permission. If you want to revise an OLD story of your own, let me know. If you want to take off in someone else’s “world,” per say, get their permission and let me know.



Perhaps this rule is not written exactly as ...

Actually, I think getting in contact with the original author is more vital than I thought. According to this post: Story Posting Guidelines, there is a rule about using another author's characters without permission.

Surely my remake does not count as plagiarism, since I make the origin of the ...

It certainly took me long enough, but once I got started the words came like greased lightning. I have finished writing my version of "Double Cross" and I think it is much improved, while still keeping all of the things that I loved about the original.

I have included a small scene after he's lost ...

Try swimming in the Amazon river with the pirahnas (did I spell that right?).



Hey, I've already written a story about that, or pretty close.

It's called simply Piranha (http://www.eunuch.org/Alpha/P/ea_175917piranha.htm) and it was fun to write.

You did get pretty close in the spelling, by ...
