Theres a story of mine I wanted to post here to get some feedback but it has a lot of violence in it. So I was wondering before I go and post it how violent is to violent for these fourms?

I will presume you have read the FAQ and are asking for further specifications. Unfortunately, there isn't a great deal that I can tell you more than what is said there. As a general rule, the presence of violence is acceptable but graphic description of it is not. For example, I have posted several stories in which people are decapitated or cut in half, but I don't talk about their inner organs spewing blood.

If you're still worried, PM me the most violent thing in the story and I'll tell you if it goes too far. In any case, having a notification in your thread will cover a lot.

I would say a good rule of thumb is this: no pointless violence or detail in said violence. If it serves a point, then I would understand (but there ought to be a darned clear point to it), but otherwise, no.
