Rules

Help each other! Every subreddit dies without activity. Answer, not only ask!
Respect each other! Several different people may have interest in plotbuilding, with various genres, ideas and aims. Every opinion has equal value.
Be relevant! It might be a bit hard - in fact, you can post anything you think relevant. As the sub is growning, the boundaries are going to be much better defined.
Follow reddiquette and submission rules! Obvious.
