Have you read the rules and the FAQ posts for this community? By saying yes you are agreeing to abide by them. Yes

And now tell us about you as a beta. What you are willing to take on and what you skills are.

What are you willing to beta? As for pairings, I'm willing to beta pretty much any Gabrielle pairing. I'm more likely to beta fics that are either Gabrielle or Joxer-centric.
What are you NOT willing to beta? Anything explicitly violent or sexual.
What are your skills as a beta? Spelling and grammar are my main sticking points.
How many authors are you willing to beta for? No more than two at once.
What fandoms would you be willing to beta crossovers for? Hercules
Other comments: I'll try to respond within at least 48 hours of you sending me something. It may take a while during the week since I have school, but on weekends I should get back to you fairly quickly.

You are amazing for signing up to be a beta. Thank you. If you have any questions, just ask. I'll have more information for you once prelim sign ups have finished. :)

Figure if I'm signing up to author and will need a beta, I should offer to reciprocate. So.

What are you willing to beta? (pairings, ratings, genres, etc) Happy with most everything. That said, aything over about 20,000 words would be difficult for me to respond to in a timely fashion. If an author's willing to be patient, however, I'm happy to do longer pieces.
What are you NOT willing to beta? Anything involving explicit depictions of nonconsensual or dubiously consensual sex. (Oblique references to same are fine.)
What are your skills as a beta? (i.e. characterization, constructive criticism, grammar, etc) I'll be better on characterization and canonicity for major characters and major plot points (my mastery of the details of the Xenaverse is only moderate

Thank you so much for signing up to beta. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. More information about betas will be posted as soon as sign ups end. :)

And now tell us about you as a beta. What you are willing to take on and what you skills have.

What are you willing to beta? I'm not a huge fan of crackfic, but I'm game for pretty much anything else. Xena/Gabrielle is my favorite but I'm not picky.
What are you NOT willing to beta? Explicit sexual violence.
What are your skills as a beta? Constructive criticism is the only kind I give as a beta. I'll give opinions and suggestions regarding characterizations but won't demand them to be written my way. I'm pretty handy on the spelling/grammar front.
How many authors are you willing to beta for? Two or three.
What fandoms would you be willing to beta crossovers for? Hercules. I'm open to others as long as I'm familiar with them.
Other comments: Once sent something I'll look it over and let you know how much time I'll need to actually beta it.

[ex_absolute]

Thank you for signing up! :D If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me and ask. More information on the beta front will be posted when prelim sign ups are closed.

What are you willing to beta? Most pairings, through NC-17, any genre except uber.
What are you NOT willing to beta? Anything with Xena/Gabrielle as the CENTRAL pairing.
What are your skills as a beta? I'm pretty good with characterization, brutal with grammar and spelling, willing to nitpick details in the xenaverse. I am pretty ruthless, so the writer should be willing to accept constructive criticism.
How many authors are you willing to beta for? Up to two.
What fandoms would you be willing to beta crossovers for? Hercules.
Other comments: I don't actually know if I'm allowed to be an author as well as a beta reader for someone else...

[ex_absolute]

Yes, you can write and also beta for some else! Thank you for singing up! We can always use more beta readers. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
