No run-on sentences and misplaced punctuation!
Hoorah!
But whoa, your uh..."beta-ing" is just a bit different than I would allow...

I'm not saying you did that Moonlight, I'm saying people who might beta that way really should rethink that move. |

Oh I see. Erm..since this isn't the beta thread, I'll go over to the beta thread and ask my next question. You go over there and answer it!  [/b]

Yeah, I won't allow that first look bad on me and people won't read her story. I will allow illiteratecy! It disgusts me when a story is up and it's all illiteratecy. And her stories did go on like her first paragraph did. |

You know, I never said anything before, but I feel like saying something about it now. Aside from like using the wrong word sometimes and such, (like bye instead of by) that paragraph wasn't that bad.
How old was the writer Moonlight? If she's young and all, I'd think you're being a little harsher than needed on her writing. In fact, you're sentences after her paragraph could be borderline insulting to her.[/b]

Everyone makes mistakes.
I do, and sometimes I don't correct them, because it looks right to me, and I don't see what's really there, 'coz my mind plays triocks on me like that...
But what Miss Moo does say sometimes seems a little harsh.
No one's better than anybody at anything, really.
You just have more experience, or like doing it.

Viljo, Yeah, it was hard correcting it, took lots of time! Well, and it took me a while for me to figure out what she means.
in her profile she saids 17, but she can lie about her age, you never know.

Yes
Everyone lies about their age at least ONCE in their lifetime.

At 17 yeah, I'd def be harsh on her writing if it looked like that. However if she IS lying and she's younger, like 14 or something, then it's not that bad. [/b]

I got a friend to write a James Potter/Sirius Black fic for my bday. I enjoyed it. Totally PG13, so not much happened, but it was so good.
As for pairings..hmmmm... H/Hr is Harry and Hermione ; H/G is Harry and Ginny ; R/Hr is Ron and Hermione ; D/H is Draco and Harry. SS/Hr would be Severus Snape and Hermione. That's how I see the pairings called.
As for the beta - I think commas and grammar are the point. Of course I saw mess ups in your edited version stargazer.
