I've seen stories with strikethrough in them. Big/small text, too, so maybe still have size (maybe up to 200) and strikethrough in them. Oh, and definitely have some fonts. Peopolz might needz them.

I think the size will just help spam stories spam. I mean, it's not going to be often, but it will still happen.

How long would it take to get a story approved?

Because there will be a lot of stories being submitted.

I don't know... When mods determine whether they're good or not?

I doubt it... If the title has fail grammar or the summary or first few chapters are filled with crap, then it would probably be deleted right there.

OKAY GUYS WE ARE RECRUITING

> STORY MODERATORS
I guess 3 mods would be good for the beginning, as the portal guys will most likely instantly go "troll story lol". We already got two people we arre looking at, so if you feel you are made for the third job PM me!
WHAT YOU NEED:
- knowledge of what is a good story and what isn't
- ability to decide if you should approve or decline a story
- occasionally writing reviews for stories, which are longer than the regular "10/10 BEST STOREE EVAR I WANT CHILD OF U ps how is babby formd"

> TESTERS
After I finished the code there will be a closed beta for 3 days. You write stuff, you comment stuff and we hope everything works. If you are bored and want to see the Story Portal before most of the users, PM.
WHAT YOU NEED:
- you should be well known in the forums. FoA Access could be a sign for that, but it's not required
- nothing else, really. You don't even need to be able to write good stories, you can also spam around to test the disapproval feature :troll:

If you want one of the jobs, PM me with subject "Story Portal: Story Mod" or "Story Portal: Closed Beta"

I switch my signature a lot. If you wanna see some of my past ones, here you go.
Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

This might be like nothing you've seen before.

Original: Jealous Ghosts of the Mississippi
The story of Rachel meeting Amber after a lifetime of silence and being shunned
